"Wen Xin" Reading Notes (1)

"Wen Xin" is a book co-authored by my country's famous education masters Xia Zunzun and Ye Shengtao to guide middle school students in reading and writing. This book adopts the style of a story and takes the study and life of middle school students as the background. It integrates all aspects of reading and writing knowledge into the story. The language is easy to understand and the examples are vivid. It is full of interest to read and does not feel boring at all.

The book "Wen Xin" has thirty-two chapters, each chapter explains a knowledge point about reading and writing.

Chapter 1: Suddenly became an adult and an ancient person

This chapter is about reading comprehension. The author uses Lu Xun's "Autumn Night" as an example to tell readers that if they want to better understand an article, they must understand the relationship between external experience and internal experience. We should focus more on the external experience (i.e., concrete things) described by the author to feel the author's internal experience (i.e., abstract state of mind). In layman's terms, it means to understand how the author places his feelings on the scene. It also points out that the reader himself must have certain life experience and thinking ability in order to better resonate with the author.

Chapter 2: Square Characters

This chapter is about the changes of “characters” in different contexts. The author takes the word "dream" in "Autumn Night" and the word "ju" in "Climbing Mount Tai" as examples to illustrate that the part of speech of each word will change in different language environments, and the meaning of the word will also change accordingly. , this situation is most common in classical Chinese. Therefore, we must distinguish carefully when reading, otherwise it is easy to misunderstand the meaning.

Chapter 3 Title and Content

This chapter explains the knowledge of "writing". The author believes that the most important thing is for an article to have substantial content. When writing an article, you should write about things that you have personally experienced and are familiar with, instead of taking an eye-catching title and making up a bunch of empty stuff. content.

"Those who practice writing should know that when they encounter a topic, writing a composition is not just about dealing with the past by just writing a few sweet words. They should also know that in practical applications, the topic of a text is often the end of the article. It was later determined that most of the purpose of the title is to facilitate the description, and it has nothing to do with it.”

I don’t particularly agree with the last sentence, although I am not a headline-grabbing writer myself, and I agree. Content is the most important, but it is undeniable that it is also very important to give a good article with useful information and quality and a good title that is appropriate to the content. After all, we live in an era of information explosion. If a good article does not have a good title, it will easily be drowned in the torrent of information in an instant.

Chapter 4 A Letter

This chapter is also about "writing" and talks about how we should use transition words carefully in writing. If an article uses the wrong connection and transition points, it can easily lead to the meaning of the entire paragraph being confused. Therefore, when we write, we must clarify the meaning before and after, and use accurate connectors.

Chapter 5: Small Bookcase

This chapter guides middle school students on how to choose books. However, times have changed. We don’t have to copy the recommendations in the book. Instead, we should choose the appropriate book based on our own situation and actual needs. It is commendable that the author not only teaches students how to read and write in the book, but also pays attention to guiding students' daily behavioral habits. In this chapter, the story of Uncle Mei teaching Dawen to organize the bookcase is used to tell middle school students that developing neat and orderly habits is Very necessary.

Chapter 6 Knowledge, Emotion and Intention

This chapter is also about writing. The author uses anti-Japanese war propaganda slogans as an example to tell readers the relevance and importance of "knowledge and intention" in writing. . Specific knowledge and methods are the category of "knowledge", the feelings you want to express are the category of "emotion", and the goals you want to achieve are the category of "intention". "Emotion" must be based on correct "knowledge", and "meaning" should be based on rational "emotion". The three must cooperate closely so that the written articles can achieve the desired effect.

Chapter 7 Diary

This chapter mainly talks about the benefits of keeping a diary. Develop a good habit of writing a diary every day. Not only can you practice writing, but you can also accumulate a lot of useful materials for future writing.

Chapter 8 Poetry

This article talks about the method of reading ancient poetry and new poetry. Whether it is ancient poetry or new style poetry, we must pay attention to the characteristics of its era. For ancient poetry , Don’t mistakenly apply the ideas and practices of the ancients to this completely different era. For new-style poetry, you must be good at feeling the development and changes of the current era.

Chapter 9 Article Hospital

This chapter talks about three mistakes that are easy to make when writing:

1. Improper wording - source The understanding of the meaning of words and meanings is not accurate, or they do not think carefully and just write in random.

2. The lack of meaning and cumbersomeness - derived from those fragmented and cumbersome words that are usually spoken.

Third, the meaning is incoherent and lacks reference - due to imprecise thinking.

After reading this chapter, I compared my own composition, and it seems that I have made all three mistakes. I need to pay attention to it when writing in the future. Not only should I pay attention to the rigor of my thinking when writing, but I should also pay attention to my daily speech. Completeness and refinement of language.

Chapter 10 Impression

This chapter explains how to use the impression method to write more impressive articles. The article uses travel notes as an example: "Merely narrating, the result is like drawing a road map. If you can write down the impression, it is the same as painting a landscape." It points out the difference between the tablet narrative method and the vivid impression method. He also tells readers that to write an infectious article, it is not to pile up some empty adjectives needlessly, but to observe carefully anytime and anywhere and accumulate more real impressions. The article also uses Liu Zongyuan's "Little Rock Pond" and "Chile Song" as examples. Both of these examples can give people a good understanding of what is a good impression description.

Looking back on my own writing, I found that when I was a boy, I loved to write in an impressionistic way, but I also liked to pile up a bunch of gorgeous words and express my sorrow in order to write new words. Nowadays, I prefer a simple and simple writing style, but other people's writing can be simple and vivid, but my own is always pale and feeble. It seems that it is not that easy to write contagious words. You must have long-term achievements. In addition to reading more and learning more, you also need to practice more and write more. The road is long!
