Requirements of free writing: healthy thinking and novel selection of materials.

How to have a novel idea in the topic composition?

Yang Bin, Jiangsu

In recent two years, the outline of college entrance examination has put forward the requirement of "innovation" in composition, which obviously echoes the demand of innovative education. Regarding the sense of innovation, the examination syllabus lists the following requirements: novel ideas; Fresh materials; Delicate in conception; Reasoning imagination is unique; Have personality characteristics. Among these four points, the most innovative ones are "novel conception" and "personality characteristics", because these are the requirements of conception. In other words, it is to examine the author's views and understanding of society, life, life and other issues, which can best reflect the author's talent and knowledge. The innovation of form is also very important, but only when the unique form is consistent with the novel content can the innovative form be meaningful. Whether the creativity is novel or not is undoubtedly the key to the success or failure of an article.

However, it is difficult to innovate the composition in the examination room, especially the novelty of the idea! This is not only because the examination room is like a battlefield, and the candidates are in a state of high tension. Moreover, the setting of examination questions is often very heavy and restrictive, which leads to the same thinking direction of candidates. The idea is novel, and it is really "difficult to go to the sky"!

How can we be unconventional and innovative in the conception of the article? Fundamentally speaking, the author needs to have rich ideological and cultural accumulation, which is what we often call "self-confidence". "There are poetry books in the abdomen, people have confidence, and the text has atmosphere. But this confidence depends on the usual long-term accumulation, and it is by no means a day's work. From the point of view of on-site examination, the key is to have a good attitude. With a good attitude, you can give full play to the accumulation of your thoughts, culture and feelings, boldly let your imagination fly and let your thoughts take off. On this basis, there are still some specific operational problems. Now I want to talk about it with a few successful examples.

One way: adjust your thinking and find another way. "The article is the most taboo." It's easy to get stuck in stereotypes, so there's nothing new.

Why not follow others? More common is reverse thinking. If you say "those who are near ink are black", I will say "those who are near ink are not black"; You said "you can't teach others an axe", and I said "you must teach others an axe"; You said, "If you walk by the river often, your feet will not get wet." I said, "If you often walk by the river, your feet won't get wet." Reverse thinking is easy to come up with new ideas, but the risk is also huge. Because the direction of argument is contrary to the routine, improper grasp will also "derail and roll over". For example, on the topic of "honesty is the most important quality in life", if someone insists on the opposite view: there is no need to talk about honesty in life, I am afraid it will be difficult to get people's approval. Even if some propositions are full of dialectics as mentioned above, we should pay attention to dialectical analysis to avoid being one-sided.

In addition to reverse thinking, changing the angle of thinking and adjusting the direction of thinking does not take the opposite argument, but changes the way of thinking and angle, which often produces different effects. Compared with reverse thinking, it is not only innovative, but also much safer. Please watch the exercise "Shell and Pearl".

The composition material is like this:

The children are playing on the beach. When I found a shell, I kicked it away. But at the same time, a shiny thing was found in the kicked shell, and they took it to see the adults.

"What is this?"

"Is this a pearl? Hey, what a rare big pearl! " "Pearl, where did this come from?"

"This is a stone drilled into the shell, and the shell is made of blood and meat." "ah! Where are the shells? This is a poor shell and a respectable shell. "

Shells and pearls

Pearls are elegant and stones are rough; Pearls are noble, stones are vulgar; Pearls are beautiful, but stones are ugly. Crystal clear pearls are ordinary stones before they become pearls; Rough and ugly stones turn into pearls because of shells. Shell "cultivates" stones into pearls with her tolerant and flexible arms.

Facing the beautiful pearl, I was thinking: at the beginning, the shell faced the rough stone. Have you ever thought about the future? Have you ever disliked it? From this, I thought of education and teachers. When our teachers are thinking about educating and shaping others, what should they do first? I think the first thing should be acceptance. Just like a shell accepts a stone, even if it makes her skin bleed. Why? Acceptance is tolerance, and acceptance is understanding. Understanding others can be understood by others, and being understood can have the power to influence. Only in this sense can there be education. When it comes to education, some people often believe in repression. They think that only in this way can we produce "prestige" and make people afraid, and education will be effective. It's actually wrong. As we all know, you don't understand the educated, and the educated won't understand you. What will be the result of such education except failure?

Acceptance and understanding is the first step, but also willing to pay. Maybe some educators can communicate with the educated, but they are unwilling to pay sincerity, labor and effort. If they encounter a little resistance, they will give up and will not succeed. In order to influence and cultivate pearls, shells paid the price of blood and meat!

Educators may sometimes be "fascinated by the authorities" about their work. As an educated person, I often feel very clear. Stones become pearls because they are touched by the flesh and blood of shells. This is beyond words. If the shell only says to the stone, turn you into a pearl. Then, it's no use saying it a thousand times. The same is true of education, which is more important than words and deeds. Educators should do what they want to be taught. So the effect of education will be more obvious.

As a student, we should have praised Pearl's efforts, persistence and success, but we thought of the selflessness and greatness of the shell, and then put forward many requirements for the shell. Actually, it is still a problem. Stones need great efforts to become pearls; How hard does it take for a shell to breed a pearl? Similarly, an excellent teacher should also strive to cultivate excellent students!

A bucket of clouds and pearls is beautiful, but who knows the shell tears? (Suzhou No.1 Middle School Zhang Zhenyu)

This is a unique composition in the examination room. Faced with this kind of material, most students think of praising pearls. Praise the hardships and blood and tears of the stone being honed into pearls, which gives birth to feelings: teenagers must make great efforts to become talents. Without a little cold, how can plum blossoms smell sweet? This idea is certainly good, not only closely related to the main idea of the material, but also enlightening. However, Zhang Zhenyu, a classmate, was ingenious and found another way. Focus on shells, focus on the tolerance and tolerance of shells to stones, praise shells for using their own flesh and blood to influence and educate stones, thus enlightening people that educators have paid a huge price for themselves in the process of cultivating talents. Of course, this idea is also of practical significance, which is of positive significance for educators themselves and for the society to correctly evaluate educational work. The greatest feature of the success of this paper is that it has found a new angle and given the material a new meaning.

Method 2: Be discerning, sensitive and considerate. Seeing poetry from the ordinary is also an important way to make the article novel. This requires the author to have a different vision from ordinary people, that is, people often say that he has a unique eye.

Of course, this kind of vision is actually the sum of the author's ideological and emotional aesthetic qualities. Under certain conditions, inspired by the topic, the author is full of thoughts and passion, showing a higher vision than his peers. The comprehensive quality of these writers is very important. If you want to do some anatomy, maybe you can start from these aspects. The first is keen observation and seeing what others don't. Secondly, he is good at association and active in thinking, and can find the connection between objective scenery and life phenomena. Third, smart and understanding. Have a sensitive and delicate heart, like to think about the meaning of life, the value of life, and perhaps, a little sentimental. Please read an excellent exercise on the topic of "Dialogue with Nature".

Talk to the cherry tree

Cherry blossoms always look indifferent, falling leisurely from the branches. They are light, slow and beautiful in the windless early spring in the south of the Yangtze River. Every time, I always walk past her on purpose, soak in the rain and smell the fragrance.

The cherry tree is like an elegant Jiangnan woman, standing quietly in the warm sunshine, gently shaking her skirt, overflowing intoxicating fragrance and generously splashing fast-flushers. I am like a devout believer, looking up at her exquisite body penetrated by the sun.

The green leaves of cherry blossoms can't wait to pour out from the branches to meet the embrace of the sun and push away the waves of flowers. Falling flowers, like running water, pour down from the branches and overflow from the gentle fingers of women. Falling flowers wet my eyes, and my heart in love with this enchanting spring is aching.

I know, flowers always have to thank, and staying too long can't hold the arm of time. But why are you so extravagant and eager to land? Why not stop for the person who loves you and leave a moment for him to remember your beautiful face?

You said that when I brushed his eyes, my light posture entered his mind deeply. An instant becomes eternity, and you don't have to sigh for my fall.

I said, why not let your youth become the brightest color in the world and let green bury you in a hurry?

You said that green will enrich life. I'm just the prelude to beautiful Cai Hua.

Luoying is like an angel, descending from heaven with a warm and bright smile. From then on, I had her smile in my eyes, bright and warm, regardless of the hot summer and cold winter.

Youth lies not in length, but in depth. Spring, which can never be suppressed, is just the prelude of life, the foreshadowing of climax and the prelude of drama.

No matter how beautiful the flowers are, they can't hide the arrival of the main theme. Even the most beautiful flowers can't hide the arrival of the main theme!

(Suzhou No.1 Middle School Horse)

Reading such an article is really a pleasure. The first is the pleasure of thoughts and feelings, which of course comes from the fresh and profound conception of the article. An ordinary cherry tree, in the author's eyes, has become a graceful Jiangnan woman, which is already a strange pen. Not only that, the author also wants to give this woman the meaning of life. Let the early withering of cherry blossoms turn into the beautiful youthful withering, and this withering is the choice of the cherry blossom fairy without regrets and the active dedication. This makes the reader's heart be stirred by a layer of emotion. Not only that, the discussion at the end can be said to be the most beautiful sublimation of the theme of the article: youth lies not in length but in depth. It turns out that the active dedication of cherry blossoms is pinned on something, which is a "prelude", "foreshadowing" and "prelude" to pave the way for brilliant spring! At this point, we really appreciate the author's endless feelings and ingenuity. What complements the idea of the article is the words full of inspiration, aura and spirituality. The exquisite beauty, coupled with the artistic image of the cherry tree, is refreshing. You will feel that such a unique feeling can't be carried by this pair of clever words.

The third method: dig deep and see the big from the small.

I remember Mr. Lu Xun once said that the selection of materials should be strict and the excavation should be deep. What do you mean by "digging deep" is that you can see some "truths" from seemingly ordinary things. At present, the common problems in middle school students' compositions are superficiality and lack of proper understanding of life, society and life, which is often referred to as the "young" tendency. How to overcome this phenomenon? Fundamentally speaking, it is to constantly improve ideological cultivation. It is necessary to form a good habit of thinking and analyzing life phenomena, start with studying hard and learning to write life notes, and constantly improve the ability to understand and evaluate life. From the point of view of the examination room, it seems that we should pay attention to the following points: First, we should choose small materials, and choose things that we are familiar with, especially things that we can control during the discussion. In this way, the discussion will be handy. Secondly, it depends on things. If you want to draw enough dragons, you should see through them. Narration is the foundation, so it should be told concretely and vividly. When discussing, we should hit the nail on the head and "look at the essence through the phenomenon", which is controversial, philosophical, insightful and enlightening. Satisfied with the facts, it is inevitable that it is not profound, incisive, novel or unique. Please look at an award-winning essay in the essay contest.

simple

That day, I broke my father's precious crystal lighter. I just want to dig out the following newspaper, but it presents me with a sad picture of death. I can only hide in my room and dare not face my mistakes.

It was not until dinner that I caught a glimpse of the fragments on the table. The gasoline has evaporated, leaving only a vague trace. Father didn't say a word, but the exquisite lighter was lying at his feet. I am more and more afraid to look up at him and face my mistakes. So, I hurried to finish my dinner and fled back to my room-sitting at my desk. In the dim light, the math problem of this unit becomes more complicated. I just want to get through these two days quickly. Maybe the next unit will be full of flowers. At this time, my thoughts flashed repeatedly like the drum of the washing machine: maybe I should let my mother intercede for me when I am not at home, or let my respected grandmother come forward. In short, this incident made me feel very complicated and began to be confused.

The next day, I walked out of the room, and the fragments were still on display in front of me. It has become an overwhelming museum. Everything reminds me that I broke it.

I ran away from home, and the right brake of my bicycle was broken, and the rear wheel made a strange noise. I don't know if the right brake affects the rear wheel or if there is something wrong with the rear wheel. Simple bicycles are so complicated in front of me that I don't know anything about them. I keep my habit as always: if the right brake is broken, I will use the left brake. For the machine of life, like this bicycle, I try to avoid using the broken part. In my opinion, if everything goes wrong one day, repairing a bicycle that is on the verge of scrapping seems more complicated than it is now.

When I got home at night, the debris was still in my sight. My father insisted on saying nothing, which put me in an impasse. At the same time, an invisible pressure began to hit. I didn't put a Mount Tai in my hand at once, but added a brick to my body every day. I turned my back on the ravine of life and found a steeper canyon in front of me.

When I went out in the morning, my neighbor invited me to tutor her daughter in elementary school with Chinese Pinyin. After the last time she said that, I spent a whole night recalling the concepts of initials and finals, but the facts tell me that there is nothing I can do about it. Therefore, how to refuse such a sincere smiling face has become a complicated problem. I know that if I tell the truth, she won't believe that a senior three student doesn't understand the first grade of primary school, and she will think that I am a unwilling child. So I began to avoid her at a distance.

This kind of life is so tiring that I have become a cockroach hiding in Tibet.

-I can't run away from my father, my neighbors and my life.

In the evening, I came home and solemnly said to my father, "I broke that lighter." Father was silent for a while, got up and took a broom, with a smile on his face. The solution of the matter is so simple, and the sudden opening of life makes me extremely happy.

From this, I think everything in the world is not difficult to solve because of complexity: it is complicated because of escape, and it is solved because of fear of facing it.

Facing life, everything will become so simple! (Suzhou No.1 Middle School Yang Jie)

As the title suggests, this article describes an extremely simple thing. No whimsy, no exaggeration. The author only completed the wise interpretation of "simplicity" with his profound understanding of life philosophy and astute capture of life details, which was profound in the ordinary and close in the distance, and also showed the superb ability of young authors to capture life details and see through the meaning of life. At the end of the discussion, "nothing in the world is difficult to solve because of complexity;" It is because of escape, because I dare not face it and dare not solve it. " It not only reveals the rich meaning of the topic "simplicity", but also binds the full text well. I really don't see a middle school student having such a clear understanding of life. On the one hand, it may be that the author did have such a life experience, on the other hand, it also shows that the author is very good at thinking and can extract profound life philosophy from the small things in front of him. It is this ability to refine life phenomena that makes this article better than other articles and reach a higher level. The style of this article is simple and elegant, and the style of writing is patchy, without huge waves and often with slight ripples; It can't be said that the momentum is ups and downs, but it is like a touch of spring mountain, ups and downs, which is pleasant. The discussion is fresh, meaningful and thought-provoking.
