N3 Reading Guide-How to Annotate Articles

Reading is actually reading yourself, reading your understanding and feelings about the article. Annotating articles is a good reading method. How to annotate the article? I will elaborate on it in a few articles.

Every time I read an article, I am used to asking students to do this: first, scan the article quickly, draw lines where I don't understand, and circle the words that are difficult to understand; Second, look up the dictionary to find out the accurate pronunciation and meaning of words; Look through relevant materials and understand the meaning of difficult sentences. If reading stays at this level, it is of little significance. We should learn to read articles and communicate with the author emotionally and spiritually through words. That is the third kind: find the place we like and write down the reasons we like in the article. It's easy to find the place we like, but it's difficult to get students to tell the reason why they like it. At first, they didn't know where to start.

How to evaluate the good parts of the article, give reasons for liking it and comment on the article? You can start from the following aspects:

First, find the key words. For example, the words "I didn't expect to travel to Songpan, Sichuan this summer, and really saw the magical colorful pond like a jade pond on the Tibetan Dragon Mountain" (I like the words "I didn't expect it to be true", expressing my surprise at seeing the colorful pond. )

Another example is "As soon as the child came up, the sailors immediately caught him and rescued him on the deck" (I like the related word "as soon as possible"

Second, sentences that use rhetorical devices. For example, in Color Pool, "The pool is made of stone powder, which is like a ribbon, enclosing large and small pools with different shapes, such as gourd, sickle, plate and lotus ..." (I like this sentence because it uses figurative rhetoric and compares the pool to a ribbon, and the color is particularly beautiful. Comparing the pool to sickle, plate, lotus and gourd has various shapes. Reading this metaphor, I have a feeling of being there. )

It is clear water, why does it show different colors in the pool? It turns out that there are many stalagmites at the bottom of the pool, some like rolling hills, some like steep peaks, some like towering pagodas, and some like clusters of corals. The stalagmite surface is condensed with a fine and transparent layer of stone powder. Sunlight shines on the bottom of the pool through the pool, and stalagmites are like uneven refractors, which refract sunlight into various colors. Trees and flowers grow luxuriantly around the pool, and colorful reflections make the water surface more magnificent.

Third, the use of punctuation marks.

For example, in "Color Pond", "Stone powder condenses in the pond like ribbons, enclosing ponds of various shapes, such as gourds, sickles, plates and lotus flowers ..." (The ellipsis indicates that the shape of colorful ponds is not only the one described by the author, but also many, which makes me have more reverie about the beauty of colorful ponds.

Another example is "He waved his sword in the air,' Horse!' "In" A horseshoe nail is missing ",he shouted,' A horse, my country was subverted because of this horse.' (The exclamation mark after the first horse word indicates the king's anxiety, the comma after the second horse word indicates the king's depression, and the period of the third horse word indicates that the country was subverted because of a horse with no horseshoe nails. That's a real pity. )

Fourth, the wonderful psychological activities of characters' language and movements.

For example, in "Diving", "the monkey turns around from time to time, making the child angry. When he climbed to the top of the mast, he hooked the rope with his hind foot, hung his hat on the top of the highest crossbar, and then sat on the top of the mast, twisting his body and making a strange mouth shape. " Climb, hook, hang and sit.

In Hugo's Normandy, there is such a dialogue-

"Where is Locke's mechanic?"

"Did the captain call me?"

"What about the stove?"

"The sea is flooding."

"What about the fire?"

"Get out."

"What about the machine?"

"It has stopped."

There is no introduction to who is talking here, and some sentences are not even completed, but they describe the urgency of the situation and the calmness of the captain. I like this short and powerful conversation.

There is such a description of the psychological activities of the poor:

She thought nervously, "What will he say? Is this a joke? His five children are enough for him ... is he here? ..... No, not yet! ..... Why did you bring them here? ..... He will hit me! That's what I deserve, I deserve it ... give me a beating! " Sang Na's soliloquy reflects Sang Na's contradictory true feelings and shows Sang Na's kind character. I like it very much.

5. Comment in the blank space of the article. The poor man seems to have no ending at last. Sang Na and the fisherman adopted Simon's children. What will their future life be like? I'm a little worried. I like this ending. )

6. Comment on doubts.

For example, in Colorful Pond, the water in the pond is beautiful. There are five colors, red, yellow, green, blue and purple. " Why not use a comma instead of the pause between red, yellow, green and blue? Is it to express that the pool water looks good? )

Another example is "Halwei Captain, who stood on the bridge and sank into the abyss with the boat without making a gesture or saying a word. People stared at the black statue slowly sinking into the sea through the gloomy mist. " Why did the captain sink to the bottom of the sea with the ship? People just watched him sink into the sea? From destruction? I don't understand. )

The most important thing in reading is to read your own unique experience. Everyone has a different understanding of the same sentence and word. The same words, the same people, different moods and different times, feelings have also changed. Annotate articles to record your reading experience at that time. After the habit is formed, reading comprehension ability will be enhanced, reading interest will be stronger, and reading will become a thoughtful behavior. Reading note format:

Reading notes refer to a style in which people write down things worth recording and their own experiences anytime and anywhere when reading books or articles. The ancients had a famous experience in reading, which called reading with eyes, mouth, heart and hands. This "handy" is a reading note. After reading an article or a book, you should write reading notes according to different situations.

(1) Outline style. In order to remember the main contents of the book, the primary and secondary contents are defined by writing an outline of the contents.

(2) Excerpts. Mainly to accumulate vocabulary and sentences. Beautiful words, wonderful sentences and paragraphs can be extracted for later reading, reciting and using.

(3) Imitation writing. In order to apply what you have learned, you can imitate the wonderful sentences and paragraphs extracted and learn to use them.

(4) Comment style. It mainly comments on the characters and events in the reading materials to affirm their ideological and artistic value. It can be divided into title, main content and comments.

(5) feelings. In order to write down what you feel most, write down what books you have read and what you have learned, and write down your feelings in connection with reality. Which is random feeling.

(6) skeptical. It is mainly to record the difficult problems encountered in reading, write them down while reading, and then ask questions separately in the future to achieve the purpose of understanding.

(7) abbreviation. In order to remember the outline of the story, after reading a long article, you can grasp the main content and abbreviate it into a short article.

The above forms can be mastered step by step from shallow to deep.
