Reading American classics, beautiful words can make our mood more pleasant. Such classic prose is rich in connotation and worth refining and understanding. The following are some excerpts from Reading American Literature for everyone.
I love books, and I love reading. There are hundreds of books neatly arranged on my bookshelf, including novels, poems, essays, plays and commercial works. Whenever I am free, I read books. I think reading is a pleasure in my life.
Some people say, "reading is really difficult." I said, "It's really hard not to study!" An example can prove it: one of my cousins, who delayed his studies during the period of "",often called me to ask questions and complained that he regretted not studying hard before! I heard that a scholar was once asked, "Is Tan Taiming one person or two people?"
The scholar said, "It's two people." Ask again: "Is Yao Shun one person or two people?" The scholar said, "People, of course!" Isn't this interesting? Another young woman who went out to work wrote a letter to her parents, which made them fidgety. Friend, do you mean "study hard" or "don't study hard"?
I loved reading books when I was a student, but in fact, most of them were endorsements, and the content was not very clear. After I came out to teach, at first, I thought that my student days were over and I didn't need to study. But in recent years, I feel behind the times. In order to adapt to the changes, I received continuing education, took part in the self-taught examination and enrolled in the Chinese language and literature major. Two or three years later, I taught myself all the courses and benefited a lot.
One to two, I touched some reading doorways: rote learning is not enough, but also learn to understand memory, grasp the key points, and point out the areas. Some friends may ask, "Is there any shortcut to reading?" I can tell you: "Shushan has a road of diligence, continuous progress, self-improvement, study, study and study again!" " "Maybe a friend will ask," What book should I read? "My opinion is" reading ancient and modern Chinese and foreign classics, etc. "
For example, a dream of red mansions, a young man from the organization department at home, has come back to life ... as long as it is a masterpiece, the more the better. After work, a person quietly picked up a book, and his thoughts surged with the masterpieces of ancient and modern China and foreign countries; In the evening, after watching the news, I gently got into the study, read sentence by sentence honestly, and swam in the ocean of knowledge. I know that learning the sea is boundless and my personal knowledge is limited, so I actively participate in literary groups and learn from each other with members.
Learn from each other's strengths; Or ask a knowledgeable teacher or an open-minded writer for advice ... on Sunday, hold a knowledge contest or get-together at home. Isn't it fun to be cheerful? Many things have happened, and luck has finally come to me. In June this year, my debut novel "Silent Oath" won the third prize in the essay contest of "Meijiale Cup" on Puning Radio Station to celebrate the 80th anniversary of the founding of the Party.
In reading, I realize more and more that reading can increase people's knowledge, improve their working ability, make people full of self-confidence, cultivate self-cultivation, optimize their quality, and form a scientific outlook on life and world ... Why not?
Classic 2: Cooking wine in brew tea in spring and autumn at the beginning of rain break in late spring night is an ancient way of leisure.
And I, in the rainy leisure time, don't need to build a couch, don't need to cook wine in my childhood, don't need to call three or five confidants, just need to give up worldly affairs. Chai Men left the door unlocked, sitting in his study, holding a book in his hand, and with the dim light and the gurgling eaves rain, let the cool wind float into the window with a little rain, and exile his heart in the world of that book, staring at it intently. One book, one world, slowly unfolding is a gluttonous feast. Sichuan, Shandong, Jiangsu, Guangdong, Zhejiang and Hunan are full of amorous feelings and landscapes.
Chew slowly, savor carefully, sweet and sour, happy and sad, etc ... as if the wind blows through the heart, as if water drops fall between flowers.
In the early morning, among the trees, I was bathed in the golden morning light, and the ringing bells from the distant temples filled my ears. However, these can't disturb my quiet heart, hold my hand and wander slowly in that vast world. Slowly look for the person in Xi Murong's past life who has always been with her, look for the lotus missed by the lotus picking woman in Jiangnan, and look for the incense burning on the wall that accompanied the monks to spend quiet time together. ...
Wandering in the vast sea of books, let you feel the beauty of spring flowers and autumn moon, and the colorful desolation of falling in love; Let you see the crystal of the world from a drop of water and experience the brilliance of life from a flower. "The book is as sad as ever, and every blind date is sad and happy in the morning", which is a kind of enjoyment, a kind of happiness and a kind of peace. Reading makes our leisure time happy and full, and makes every day rich and relaxed.
Reading is a meditation exercise.
Busy, tense and tiring modern life, the endless stream of people and cars on the street flooded in, making you and me want to stop. A tired body supports a tired soul. Did the haggard soul find a conversion? In the face of setbacks and ups and downs in life, do anxiety and anxiety bother you? In the face of the restless lights in the world, is your heart still peaceful? Is the greedy desire still expanding? All kinds of morbid psychology can only be cured by books.
Indeed, books are still medicine! While curing ignorance and backwardness, I also let my morbid mind be corrected and improved gradually, and my' moral character' gradually became noble. I suddenly realized that no matter how the years pass, only books can make you understand the past and present and cure people's ignorance. Reading can't change the length of life, but it can change the width and expand the quality of life.
The scholarly country has been immersed for a long time, combing and engraving those memories that will never die. Gradually, those bookish people will also infect you and me, and life will become more substantial and more exciting.
Where to find the pleasure of reading, count plum blossoms. Let books decorate our lives. I firmly believe that only by integrating our souls into the sea of books and the contents of books into our lives can we have a broader spiritual space than the sea.
A cup of tea, a wisp of incense and a scroll are all well thought out. For example, under the bean light, the fragrance of tea lingers, the book is faint, and the heart is overflowing ... I am deeply intoxicated.
A book is like a key, which can open the door to confusion in the heart; Books are like a pair of wings, which can help me fly freely in the sky of knowledge; Books are like a bright lamp, which can guide me to find my way in the dark; Books are a ladder for me to keep improving, and go up a flight of stairs.
Bacon said: "Reading is enough for fun, enough for learning, enough for learning." On those nights accompanied by books, read the words of Confucius and Mencius, understand Du Li's poems, appreciate Liu Yong's writings, appreciate clear words, accumulate wisdom and feel the beauty of literature. In the book, I met immortal characters and approached the shining soul. The most memorable one is Robinson Crusoe. At that time, I admired his courage and courage, and even listed him as a great hero in my mind.
After being shipwrecked, he was stranded on a desert island, with no food, no water and no friends to talk to. Modern people can't imagine the harsh living conditions, but he survived strongly. He didn't give in to life and suffering easily. His resolute character and positive and optimistic attitude towards life are worth learning from each of us. In today's life, some people are unhappy because they can't find satisfactory jobs.
Some people even threaten their lives because of some trivial things in daily life. How stupid they are. People who don't know how to cherish life will lose their luster and value. Reading can give me unlimited imagination, as if I could travel through just visiting to experience the continuous wars in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and watch the prosperity of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Reading the science fiction novels of Verne and Conan Doyle brings us into an ethereal and wonderful world in advance.
When reading A Dream of Red Mansions, I felt as if I were in front of the Jia family, feeling the grandeur of the feudal family and witnessing the different fates of all kinds of people with mixed feelings. It is one of the four classical novels in ancient times, which embodies an unprecedented peak of novel art and shows the rise and fall of a big family.
I appreciate Jia Baoyu's frankness and naturalness, being lofty and refined, and not colluding with the secular; I like Lin Daiyu's exquisiteness, beauty, brilliance and arrogance. I admire Wang Xifeng's wit and shrewdness. After reading this book, I learned some principles of dealing with people and some writing skills.
Cao Xueqin's ability to write famous books is inseparable from his careful observation on weekdays. He described in detail all the buildings in Jiafu, even the humble corners. He can combine narrative and lyricism perfectly, and use various methods such as environmental rendering and suggestive foil to make A Dream of Red Mansions enduring. Reading a dream of red mansions is like communicating with the author, unconsciously indulging in the characters he created.
Reading is like tasting tea, you need to savor it carefully. It often reminds me of the leisure of "listening to the rain on a calm summer night", the lovesickness of "the curtain rolls in the west wind and people are thinner than yellow flowers" at the dusk of the golden wind, and the boldness and rudeness of "Jiangdong waves have gone" on the turbulent river. In the book, I know myself again. With the book, my life is more meaningful.
Books enable us to climb the peak of knowledge and seek the sky of thinking. Reading has purified and sublimated my mind, and I feel the happiness and value of life. "The book has its own golden house, and the book has its own Yan Ruyu." Let's wander in this sea of books and ink, let it accompany us to grow up, enrich our lives and warm our hearts.
There is no end to reading and no end to learning. Books are our lifelong teachers, which enable us to gain spiritual purification and insight into life.
