Its main characteristics are naive, innocent, lively, lovely, carefree and carefree. Children are generally childlike. With the growth of age and profound experience, people become mature, prudent and scheming, and innocence will disappear. Therefore, innocence is also a child's most precious wealth.
There is also an article "Children's Fun", which is slightly adapted and included in the fifth lesson of the first Chinese textbook of People's Education Edition 200/kloc-0.
An ordinary sight or thing will become beautiful and strange through imagination and association.
[Edit this paragraph] Original text
When I recall my childhood, I can look at the sun with my eyes wide open. I am good at observing autumn. When I see something small, I have to check its texture carefully, so I have a good time outside.
In summer, mosquitoes turn thunder, and privately plan to dance into a group of cranes in the air. The direction of the heart is either a thousand or a hundred, and it is indeed a crane; Look up, Xiang Qiang. Mosquitoes stay in the tent and smoke, making them fly towards the smoke, making them look like white cranes in Qingyun, like cranes in the clouds, and happy.
I often crouch in the concave and convex parts of the earth wall, in the grass on the flower platform, so that it is flush with the platform; If you look closely, you can feel at ease when you wander around with bushes as forests, insects and ants as beasts, convex soil and gravel as hills and concave soil as valleys.
One day, I saw two insects fighting in the grass. When I watched it, it was in full swing. Suddenly, a monster came down from the mountain and fell from the tree, covering a frog. My tongue spit out and both worms swallowed it. I was young and lost in thought, but I was surprised. God decided to catch frogs, whip dozens and drive them out of the hospital.
The above is the original text in the Chinese book, and the following is the original text in Six Chapters of a Floating Life:
When I recall my childhood, I can look at the sun and see through autumn. Hold small things; We have to check its texture carefully, so it is sometimes interesting.
In summer, mosquitoes turn thunder, and privately plan to let a group of cranes dance empty. If the heart wishes, there are thousands of cranes Look up, Xiang Qiang. Mosquitoes stay in the vegetarian tent, and smoke, so that they can fly against the smoke, making a view of Qingyun white crane, and the fruit is like a crane floating in the clouds, which is happy. In the concave and convex parts of the earth wall and the grass in the flower terrace, you often squat down to make it flush with the terrace, study it carefully, take the grass as the forest, the insects and ants as the beasts, the bumps of the soil and gravel as the hills, and the depressions as the gullies, and enjoy yourself.
One day, I saw two insects mowing grass, and I had a strong view. Suddenly, a monster came from the mountain, fell from the tree, covered a toad, stuck out his tongue and swallowed two bugs. I was young and lost in thought, but I was surprised. God decided to catch toad, whip him dozens of times and drive him out of the hospital. Think about it a little bigger. When two bugs fight, Gato won't follow suit. As the old saying goes, "He who is near Zhu Zhechi and near Mexico is black", so are insects? Greedy this profession, eggs are eaten by earthworms, and they are not swollen. When you catch a duck, you can open your mouth and let it go. The duck bumped its neck and made a swallow. It cried in fright and was passed as a handle. This is all leisure when you are young.
Note: the pronunciation of shrimp is "ha"
[Edit this paragraph] Translation
When I was a child, my eyesight was very good. I can look straight at the sun with my eyes wide open, and I can see the thinnest new feathers of birds in autumn. As long as I see subtle things, I have to look at their texture carefully, so I often have the pleasure of transcending secular life.
In the summer evening, mosquitoes fly in groups and hum like thunder. "I" secretly compared them to a group of cranes flying in the air, thinking that hundreds of mosquitoes really became cranes; I looked at it with my head held high, and my neck was exhausted. "I" left the mosquitoes in the unstained tent again, and slowly sprayed them with smoke to make them jump on the smoke. "I" compared this scene to the landscape of "Qingyun White Crane". Sure enough, they flew into the clouds like white cranes, and "I" applauded for it.
I often squat down beside uneven earth walls, flower beds and grassy places to make my body as high as the flower beds; Concentrate on careful observation, regard the grass as a tree, imagine insects and ants as wild animals, compare the raised land to hills, regard the low-lying places as trenches, and I wander leisurely in them.
One day, "I" saw two bugs fighting in the grass, so I watched carefully. Just when I was in high spirits, a monster suddenly appeared, knocking down the mountain and overwhelming the tree. It turned out to be a frog. When its tongue came out, it swallowed both bugs. At that time, when I was young, I was watching those two bugs playing spellbound.

[Edit this paragraph] Text discussion
First, the overall grasp
The theme of this paper is the author's childhood "interest outside things". Although "interest outside things" is not owned by things themselves, it is related to things. It is the result of the subjective experience of the viewer acting on things, and it can also be said that things generate interest. Mosquitoes and insects in the grass mentioned in the article are very small things, which can arouse children's curiosity and imagination, and interest is thus generated.
At the beginning, the author said that he had excellent eyesight when he was a child, and then pointed out the main idea of the article. "Open your eyes to the sun" means that your eyes can withstand strong light stimulation; "Clear eyes" means excellent eyesight and being able to see small things clearly. With such good eyesight, coupled with the hobby of "seeing small things, we must carefully examine their texture", we can find "the interest outside things" This is a summary, only 32 words, concise and visible. The following points are described.
In summer, mosquitoes turn into thunder, which makes people miserable, but the young author is whimsical and imagines it as a moving picture of "cranes dancing in the air", and he is fascinated. Later, he thought of the "Yun Zhonghe Map" he had seen before, so he "left the mosquitoes in the vegetarian account and smoked them to fly". As a result, he really saw such a picture. This is a picture magnified by imagination, which shows the spontaneous aesthetic consciousness in a child's innocent mind. This is a ...
Secondly, the author lived in the city when he was young, and he was eager to see the natural scenery, so he used his imagination to realize his wish. He imagined the uneven walls in the garden and the bushes on the flower beds as Woods, insects and mosquitoes as beasts, and small clods as high as hills as low as gullies, which gave him a free and broad world and allowed him to enjoy the scenery of "nature" to the fullest. One day, there were two insects fighting in the grass-in the young author's imagination, it turned into two wild animals fighting in the Woods, which made him particularly fascinated; Unexpectedly, a "monster" came to the mountain. Stick out your tongue and swallow the two animals together. The young author was scared to death; When I woke up and the illusion disappeared, I found that the "monster" was just a frog. He was angry, but he didn't want to hurt it. He just used whipping to show his punishment-what is the whip made of? The article didn't explain, maybe it was a twig. He punished the frog, which may be revenge for two bugs, but from the perspective of "driving away from the hospital", the main reason was to destroy his aesthetic taste.
The author uses the phrase "interest outside things" to control the above two things, which is intended to show that he had spontaneous aesthetic consciousness and interest when he was young.
Second, the problem research
Shen Fu's "Six Chapters of a Floating Life" has a chapter about "leisure", which mainly records the author's love for flowers and trees when he grows up and the trivia of beautifying the room and surrounding environment with his wife after marriage. I only remember the first paragraph of childhood anecdotes, so I am relatively independent, and I am quite unique in describing children's psychological process of looking at things, which is worth studying.
The young author thought of "cranes dancing in the air" from the flying of mosquitoes, which is the so-called similar association; Thinking of "Yun Zhonghe" is close to association. This latter association prompted him to imitate, so he "left mosquitoes in the vegetarian tent and let them fly with smoke", and then carefully observed that "fruit is like a crane in a cloud", which is the illusion of the young author, but it is also the goal he pursues-this is a very beautiful picture and worth pondering.
The section on insect watching is similar to the above process. "Taking shrubs as forests, insects and mosquitoes as beasts, protruding mud and gravel as hills and depressions as valleys" all belong to similar associations, and the appearance of "behemoth" is also an illusion; Differences are the cause of this illusion. At this moment, the young author has been completely intoxicated in the realm of his own association, and the object in front of him has been magnified thousands of times, and the frog is sudden. In contrast, it naturally becomes a "monster." This illusion was suddenly produced in a very short time by intense stimulation, which was different from Yun Zhonghe's intention.
Attention should be paid to cultivating students' association and imagination, which can not only improve students' ability to read and appreciate literary works, but also be of great benefit to students' memory and creative thinking ability.
[Edit this paragraph] Practice notes
Read the text aloud and tell me in my own words how I saw the scene of "Yun Zhonghe" and met the "monster". Why does the author say that these two things are "interesting foreign objects"? How do you think you can become a person with rich interests?
The purpose of setting questions is to let students perceive the whole content of the text and learn classical Chinese vividly. All narratives should enable students to repeat the main idea in their own words, which is one of the ways to learn to live; If you learn classical Chinese from the beginning, it is tantamount to blocking the way of learning. Teachers should affirm the elements of students' creative retelling in the process of guidance and only correct obvious mistakes.
The first question should be answered after the students have basically recited it (see "Text Discussion" for the reference answer), and teachers should be good at inspiring students to tell their own experiences.
The second question is open, aiming at arousing students' initiative in learning and arousing their aesthetic consciousness. We can start with students' extracurricular hobbies to inspire and cultivate students' interest, association and imagination.
Second, explain the words.
1. The meanings of some classical Chinese words can be explained by adding words, such as "Be sure to carefully (carefully) examine (observe) their texture"; Some need to be explained in another word, such as "hold your head high". Try to choose a method to explain the words added in the following sentences. (1) Xiang Qiang (2) Fruit is like a cloud crane (3) Grass is a forest (4) Prosperity is strong (5) Ecstasy (6) Drive away the other courtyard.
2. The following words are mostly preserved as idioms in modern Chinese, so you might as well explain them by telling the general idea. Example: Be happy.
(1) insight into autumn; (2) self-satisfaction; (3) monsters; (4) Mosquitoes thunder in summer; (5) Interest in external things.
The purpose of the topic is to tell students that they can explain classical Chinese words in simple ways and eliminate their fear of difficulties. This is the only way to learn classical Chinese at first, but it is not good to talk too much. Explanations can be copied and accumulated in books.
There are many ways to deal with this problem: or let students read the text several times and try to solve it; Or in the process of dredging the meaning of the text; In a better teaching class, there is no harm in letting students do answers in preview.
Reference answer
1.( 1) item (neck, neck) is the strongest. (2) Fruit is like a crane in a cloud.
(3) Forest with shrub grass (4) Strong interest.
(5) Fang (front) is in a trance; Enchant (6) Drive (drive, drive) the other hospital.
2.( 1) Pay attention to observation (see "Understanding the Meaning")
(2) Feel at ease (see "Notes")
Monster (huge thing)
(4) Mosquitoes thunder in summer (in summer, swarms of mosquitoes sound like thunder, which is an exaggerated expression)
(5) observe things with a childlike innocence, and gain a feeling that others can't get by playing with children's naive thinking. That feeling is very subtle.
Recite the full text.
To recite this article, you must first read it correctly and get a general understanding of the content. To this end, teachers must give specific guidance: (1) Through model essay reading and reading guidance, students can read in a clear rhythm and reach their mantra through repeated practice; (B) clear the narrative order of the article, so that students can understand the general idea of each layer.
To insist on reciting in class, you can learn paragraphs in turn first, and then practice reciting the full text; You can also teach a paragraph, read a paragraph and recite a paragraph.
[Edit this paragraph] Teaching suggestions
This article can be taught in two classes.
Since this article is the first classical Chinese that students have learned since they entered school, it is necessary to talk about the significance and methods of learning classical Chinese first. No more than 20 minutes. The main points are as follows:
1. Classical Chinese is an ancient writing style characterized by simplicity and elegance. Classical Chinese comes from ancient spoken Chinese, and modern Chinese also comes from ancient spoken Chinese. They have the same origin and different currents, and there are similarities and differences. Similarity is primary and difference is secondary, so it is not difficult to learn. We should have the confidence to learn well.
Second, learning classical Chinese is to inherit the culture of the motherland and can help us understand many things in history; Modern Chinese still retains many words and expressions of classical Chinese. Learning classical Chinese can enrich our language warehouse.
Third, the key to learning classical Chinese well is to cultivate a sense of language. There are "three essentials" to cultivate a sense of language: first, be familiar with reciting texts so as to be familiar with the expressions and language habits of classical Chinese; Second, we should use our own heart to understand, with the aim of integrating "speech" and "meaning", and knowing "meaning" by seeing "speech"; Third, we must actively accumulate vocabulary and vocabulary in order to master the expression tools of classical Chinese. These three articles are closely related and indispensable.
It takes 70 minutes to teach reading class. The suggestions are as follows:
1. Be sure to watch it in class.
This article is ***22 1 word. It takes about 1 minute to read it at a medium speed. Assuming that reading 12 times in class (including the teacher's model essay reading and reading guide) only takes about 24 minutes, it is completely possible to recite in class. Doing so helps students form the habit of reading aloud. To achieve this goal, the following measures can be taken:
(1) When previewing, you are required to read the text and understand the main idea of the text at least three times.
(2) Guide students to read aloud. We can start by dividing the pause. Because students are used to reading word by word in primary school (which is helpful to recognize fonts and pronounce correctly), it is no harm to let students know that the reading method is different from before with individual examples first. For example:
Be able to/stare at the sun/look at it, be strong/strong.
Make it/smoke/fly, make it/Qingyun crane/view.
(In the example, "/"means obvious pause, and "…" means extremely short pause. )
The purpose of dividing pauses is to clarify the level of sentence meaning, which makes the sentence meaning easy to understand.
(3) Teachers should demonstrate and recite.
2. About understanding the meaning of the text
The basic principle is to inspire students to take the initiative to solve problems without mechanical translation; As soon as we engage in mechanical translation, students' spirit of memorizing translations and actively solving problems will disappear, which is not conducive to the cultivation of classical Chinese reading ability in the long run.
But this principle should also be grasped flexibly. Let's talk about several issues in combination with the text:
(1) Note: For example, "Bump" has two pronunciations of "Wei (wèi)" and "Ao (āo)", so students can look it up in the dictionary and choose the correct pronunciation. The "strong" of "strength" needs to read jiāng, which requires the teacher to be reasonable.
(2) The words are easy to understand, for example, "making things privately" means "caring for one's heart"; "fugue" means "as if playing", which is a bit like sleepwalking.
It can be said in a comparative way, such as "what the hand touches" and "what the heart wants".
Can inspire students to speak for themselves, for example, ask students "how do you feel when you look up for a long time", then the next sentence "Xiang Qiang" can be explained by students themselves. All words that can be explained according to the context are treated in this way.
(3) When speaking idioms, it is important to let students understand the whole meaning, instead of delving into it, such as "details see everything", that is, even the smallest things can be seen clearly, indicating excellent eyesight. According to this sentence, it comes from King Huiliang of Mencius: "Ming is enough to see the end of autumn without paying." Bright, refers to vision. But needless to say, it is not too late to talk about Mencius in senior three.
Generally speaking, you only need to point out that it is equivalent to a word in modern language, and then point out the part of speech when necessary, which never involves syntax. For example, the word "one" in Yan Xuyi is equivalent to "use", so don't talk about the postposition of object-object phrases. Language is a habit. Read more books, get into the habit, and you will understand at a glance. This should be done not only now, but also throughout junior high school.
3. About content dialing
This paper focuses on the writer's excellent eyesight in his childhood. He is good at discovering the beauty of things from association. Junior one students must feel the same way after reading it. Therefore, we should make good use of similar life experiences among students and turn this class into a cordial conversation between teachers and students, rather than making a formulaic analysis.
"Interest outside things" is the crowning touch of this article. At first, you don't have to get to know it in depth, just tell me the general meaning. After learning the text, you can ask the students if they have had such taste in combination with the aesthetic taste of the young author.
4. Introduction and expansion
It can be introduced by creating situations.
The way of extension is to quote the description of children in ancient poems, such as the poem in Li Bai's Gulangyue: "I don't know the moon when I am young, so I call it Bai Yupan." I also suspect that Yao Taijing is flying on the other side of Qingyun Mountain. " ) Arouse students' association.
5. Ask students to recite the full text.
[Edit this paragraph] Appreciate
This article is selected from "Idle Feelings" in Six Chapters of a Floating Life by Shen Fu, a writer in Qing Dynasty. The book has 999 original records and 1 existing records. This is a lyric memoir and narrative prose. With vivid brushwork and delicate description, the article describes some interesting things about the author's childhood and shows us a picture of innocence. Mainly reflected in:
First, remember to write childlike innocence, a string of beads.
This is a wonderful story about childhood fun, and its core is to highlight unforgettable childlike innocence. To this end, the article takes the "childlike interest" in seeing the world from children's eyes as the main line, organizes the full text according to the "total-sub" structure, and writes closely with the word "interest". First of all, I have been writing that childhood often has fun beyond the world. Among them, "When you see something small, you must carefully examine its texture" is the following copy. Then it is divided into three interesting things: the first interesting thing is that watching mosquitoes is as interesting as watching cranes, treating floaters as "flying in the air" and hitting mosquitoes in mosquito nets makes me feel extremely happy; The second interesting thing is the interest of wandering in the mountains and forests. I regard grass as a tree, insects and mosquitoes as beasts, and sand as a gully. I feel at ease when I wander among them. The third interesting thing is to watch two bugs fight. Binchi, regarded as a "monster", dropped two bugs, and "I" whipped away in a rage. At this point, several scattered stories have been connected into a whole, achieving the effect of scattered but not scattered.
Second, observe the micro-knowledge and highlight the innocence.
Childhood anecdotes are trivial things, but they are unforgettable "big things" in children's eyes. While arranging clues, the article selects typical materials full of childlike interest from a unique perspective of observing things as a child and vividly depicts them. In this way, the whole article is full of childlike interest, every story is fascinating, every detail is vivid and vivid, and childlike innocence is highlighted between the lines. Please look at some typical examples: the word "chong" in "Smoke Flying" makes people want to see mosquitoes flying around in the diffuse smoke; The "determination" in "focusing on the fine view" and "determination" in "positive view" highlight the unique situation and mentality of high concentration of attention; "Summer mosquitoes turn into thunder", and everyone is afraid to avoid it. However, the young "I" is "planning to dance with cranes", and I watched and imagined with relish. "If the heart wishes, there will be thousands of cranes" and "If you look up, you will be strong", which shows how long your observation time is and how interested you are. At first glance, Toad's Coming from the Mountain seems to be against the truth, but the masterpiece is deeply moved by the wonderful language. The author focuses on describing the spirit likeness, which accords with children's perceptual psychological characteristics and the illusion of "squatting down", vivid and true.
Third, the imagination is rich and the childlike innocence is lovely.
Zhu De said: "Children can be respected. He often thinks of the realm above the stars and the moon, the underground situation, the use of flowers, and the language of insects. " He wants to fly to the sky, and he wants to sneak into the ant nest ... "This shows that children's imagination has a special exaggeration. They like to exaggerate certain characteristics or plots of things, thus generating rich and strange imagination. This paper attempts to promote childlike interest through bold imagination and high exaggeration. Using both exaggeration and metaphor, we found the similarity between the buzzing of mosquitoes and the muffled thunder, compared mosquitoes to cranes, and found out the shape of their bodies and "the direction of their hearts", so as expected, a landscape of flying cranes appeared in front of us, and then creatively "made a view of white cranes in Qingyun"; I squatted in the grass and watched the struggle between two insects. When I was in high spirits, I actually described toad's "sneak attack" as "a monster came down from the mountain and fell from the tree". Here, reality is virtual, and "virtual" is vivid and magical; Taking bushes as forests, insects and ants as beasts and gravel as hills and valleys is also the product of my creative association and imagination. It is based on a naive childlike innocence (children's life experience and knowledge base), so it is vivid and interesting, which makes the article full of novelty and childlike interest.

[Edit this paragraph] Six chapters of a floating life
Six Chapters of a Floating Life is an autobiographical novel written by Changzhou Shen Fu in the 13th year of Jiaqing in Qing Dynasty (1808). Yang Yinchuan, the brother-in-law of Wang Tao in the Qing Dynasty, found the remnant draft of Six Chapters of a Floating Life in a cold stall in Suzhou, with only four volumes, and gave it to Wang Tao, who was in charge of reporting Wenzunge in Shanghai at that time, and published it as movable type 1877. The second dictionary of a floating life tells Li Bai's poem Preface to the Spring Banquet in Taoliyuan that "the husband of heaven and earth, everything goes against the course;" Time flies, and a hundred generations fly by. And floating like a dream, for the joy of geometry? " .
version
Wen Zunge's block-printed Six Chapters of a Floating Life is the earliest existing block-printed book in China, with Yang's life introduction and Wang Tao's inscription and postscript. In the preface to Yang Yinchuan, it is said that "six records are short of two". Wang Tao once said that he read this book when he was young (A.D. 1847 years ago), but unfortunately he didn't copy it. He often missed it during his exile in Hong Kong. Wang Tao 1877' s postscript for Zunwenge Edition did not say that he had read the whole book when he was young.
From 65438 to 0936, Lin Yutang translated four chapters of Six Chapters of a Floating Life into English and serialized them in Tianxia Monthly. Later, he published a bilingual booklet with a long preface. Lin Yutang wrote in the preface: "Yun, in my opinion, is the most lovely woman in China literature." I also guess that "there must be a complete book in Suzhou's family collection or second-hand bookstore."
Soon after, a complete manuscript appeared in a cold stall in Suzhou, with five volumes and six volumes, which was actually forged for future generations.
Yu Pingbo wrote Six Chapters of a Floating Life on the basis of the first four chapters of Six Chapters of a Floating Life.
Catalogue of six chapters of floating life
