Before, that is, before the Cultural Revolution, there was a way of appreciation called vegetarian reading. It is emphasized that when people read an article, they read it without any distractions and opinions, and then they make comments in their own minds. Then they add their own opinions, read it for the second time, comment while reading it, and finally read it for the third time, find out the good chapters in their minds and write them down with small pieces of paper sandwiched or glued in the book. Of course, there are people like Mao Zedong. How to appreciate prose and improve the ability to appreciate prose is a step-by-step project. We must grasp the essentials, such as grasping the main idea and the center. Be good at grasping the eye of the text and follow the picture. Understanding love means seeing the scenery, things, things, feelings, feelings, and the feelings of the author, and then understanding the beauty of the content, the high realm, the elegance of feelings and the beauty of interest. Analyze the structure and find out the characteristics. Appreciate emotional words, remember them carefully, pay attention to rhetorical devices, and understand their expressive functions. Knowing the writing skills of lyric prose, such as rendering, bedding, symbol, bedding, concern and suspense, can grasp the essence of American prose. Only by concentrating on research and perseverance can the level of appreciation be like "sesame development-rising day by day." (Paper) Different styles of articles have different reading methods. For example, the reading method of argumentative essays can be summarized as "read through the full text to find arguments, the arguments must be complete, the persuasiveness of the arguments must be understood, and the gains must be summarized". How to cultivate students' ability to appreciate prose and improve the level of examination? According to the characteristics of prose, I think we can start from the following aspects. First, grasp the idea of prose, or narrative, or lyric, or reasoning. It expresses one's feelings and thoughts through the narration of a certain person and thing and the description of a certain scenery, which gives people a strong infection and profound enlightenment, and makes people have a strong voice in thought or a fierce shock in emotion. Some thoughts are concentrated, emotions are obvious, or emotions are inside, or emotions are in the scene, or scenes blend, which requires grasping the center and grasping the ideas. So when we appreciate the works, we must clean up the materials of the works. Such as life pictures, scenes, people, events, landscapes, etc. Analyze the internal relationship between materials, explore the deepening context of the author's feelings, and try to figure out the conception and theme of the work. For example, when reading the Japanese woman writer Hu's article Dandelion, we should make it clear that the article expresses our feelings by describing the specific image of Dandelion and telling the story of Dandelion, so as to further understand that the article shows the theme that the author hates war, yearns for peace and loves workers. Only in this way can we really understand this article. Second, be good at grasping the eyes of the text. As the saying goes, "the eyes are the windows of the soul" and "the eyes of words" are the eyes of articles. Appreciating prose is more important, especially Zhu Ziqing's prose. For example, the first sentence at the beginning of his famous essay Moonlight on the Lotus Pond is the literary eye of this article. This sentence caught the reader's eye and made the reader suddenly wonder, "What makes a professor China unhappy?" There must be a reason for fidgeting. Is it from society or from comrades? Is it from a family or an individual? Seeing the inscription of the article: (Tsinghua Campus, Beijing, July, 1927), readers will naturally think of the social environment at that time, that is, the whole society was shrouded in white terror, and it was really difficult for intellectuals to pursue revolution, truth and progress. Obviously, Mr. Zhu's unhappiness is caused by social reasons. So what if I'm not calm inside? So I went out for a walk, and the result was that "the excitement is theirs", and Mr. Zhu had nothing. Therefore, grasping the eye of this article and appreciating this excellent work is just like following a map and tracing the trail. Another example is to appreciate his "Venice" and grasp that "Venice is a unique place" and. Green) "The second time I went to Xianyan, I couldn't help but marvel at the green of Meiyu Pool" and so on, and everything was solved. Third, understanding the "emotion" in emotional prose is often an important clue to organize people, things, things and scenery in the work, which makes the structure of the work appear compact and ups and downs. Prose also expresses emotions in a flexible way, either by borrowing things or by borrowing scenery; Either express your feelings directly or hide your feelings between the lines. It can be said that the artistic conception of an excellent prose includes two factors: emotion and scenery (things and things), in which emotion is the main factor, scenery is only a means, and scenery is written for lyricism and understanding. Without love, you lose your vitality. For example, Huang He, a Hong Kong writer, didn't write The Banyan Tree in My Hometown. Planting trees is a "sentimental thing". Why write banyan? Why write about the banyan tree in my hometown? This is love. What kind of feelings did you express? To this end, we must also "know the situation." Then the article is about "I", a "I" who has lived in a foreign land for a long time. When I take my youngest son for a walk and play in the shade of a big banyan tree, the banyan tree in my hometown is naturally drawn from the scene in front of me, and then I describe the events and scenery about the banyan tree in my hometown to express my sincere attachment to my hometown. Therefore. When we appreciate prose, we should explore the artistic beauty of prose. We can start with scenes, things and events, so as to feel, enter, examine and understand the feelings of the author, and then appreciate the beauty of the content, the high realm, the exquisite elegance and the logic of the work. Fourthly, the analysis feature of structural prose is "scattered form but not spirit". When we appreciate prose, we must grasp the "spirit" in the text on the basis of analyzing the structural characteristics of its organizational materials and sorting out its clues. For example, Qin Mu's prose "Land", which he thinks is more distinctive, can well reflect the characteristics of prose "scattered in form and gathered in spirit". For example, in the fourth paragraph of the article, "Sometimes looking at the vast and desolate land, I ride a wild horse of thought to a far, far place, and then I rein in the reins and slowly return to the brilliant reality in front of me." This paragraph has a general function and is a remarkable feature of the structure. As a result, "shape dispersion" can be written as thousands of years in time span and several Wan Li in space, and its form is scattered anyway. But they are inseparable from the theme of the author's feelings of loving and cherishing the land. "Therefore, analyzing the structure of prose is conducive to understanding and grasping the form and spirit of prose. Fifth, the language styles of emotional prose are diverse. Excellent prose language can be concise and accurate, simple and natural, fresh and lively, cordial and touching. For example, Zhu Ziqing wrote "Green" in 1924, and the description of green in the article is like this: "This paved, thick green is really cute. She wrinkles easily, like a skirt dragged by a young woman; She is smooth and shiny, like being painted with' bright oil', as soft as egg white; She doesn't mix dust with me, just like a wet jasper with clear colors ... "These languages are fresh, lively, friendly and touching, and they are catchy to read and give people a sense of beauty. Some are rough and some are delicate. Some are bold and some are graceful and restrained, so we should ponder carefully and appreciate the beauty of lyric language. In addition, we should pay attention to the rhetorical function of language. Prose language pays more attention to image and vividness. Metaphor, personification, exaggeration, parallelism, quotation, etc. are commonly used, and these rhetorical devices themselves have typical functions. For example, the function of metaphor is to turn this into another, with active image and rich imagination; The role of personification is to be human, kind and natural, and personify. For example, 1998 college entrance examination "Bao Qiu" read question 29. Asking "the advantages of repeatedly using the word' Bian'" and "the advantages of repeatedly using the word' Jie'" is to examine the function of rhetoric. The former can be expressed as "keeping close to the solar terms and emphasizing the fleeting time", while the latter can be summarized as "spreading layer by layer and gradually expanding, which plays a strengthening role in pointing out the main idea of this article". Sixth, understanding emotional skills Understanding the writing skills of lyric prose is also the "expressive skills that can appreciate works" required by the college entrance examination. Therefore, mastering the skills of rendering, bedding, symbolism, bedding, care and suspense is conducive to appreciating prose and grasping the essence of American literature. In a word, the process of improving prose appreciation ability is a step-by-step project. Only by mastering the essentials, studying hard and persevering can the appreciation level be as high as "sesame blossoms are rising day by day".
