搭建其交流平台,增强汉语阅读教学的活力
在小学语文教学中,有一个比较奇怪的现象:在教学中耗时最多,表面上也适合用“量”来评价的阅读教学,教师却死死守着每册教课书的二三十篇课文,对课外阅读教材及阅读篇目或点“目”为止,或置之不理。为什么呢?一是不少小学语文教师把阅读仅仅地理解为“读”,所以阅读变成了朗读,变成了堂上百花齐放的诵读与点评;二是对通过阅读来提高学生阅读能力的理论,迫于急功近利的“分数考评”压力不敢实施,而是采用堂上过量分析、讲解的方式来“提升”学生阅读答题的套用能力。其实,在当下师生都无法挣脱分数羁绊的前提下,通过搭建丰富的儿童文学作品的交流平台,可以让教师慢慢由前台转到后台,从而自然而然地变革教学方式,使阅读由“读”回归阅读。譬如,儿歌适合朗诵与游戏:现在课堂教学常用的方式是诵读乃至背诵与讲解相结合的方法,让学生感知汉语的节奏与韵律美及积累应试所需的语言材料。如,将教师讲解儿歌内容的时间缩短,加入设计的儿歌游戏,这样儿歌的学习可自然延展到学童的课外娱乐生活中了。堂上游戏平台的搭建,在增强趣味性的同时,不仅加强了学童对语言材料的识记,而且也加深了学童对儿歌内容的理解,更重要的是使语文学习发展为语文生活。这样做虽然会增加教师课前教学设计的工作量,但课堂教学的效果、效率及课程的活力都可得到提升。又如,学生们非常喜欢的童话、故事等儿童文学作品适合讲述与表演:当下已有不少教师在单篇作品中运用学生讲述与表演的方式来调节讲析为主单调的阅读教学方式,虽效果不错,却比较费时且受益面有限。其实童话与故事可用全册集中分组交流教学的方式,来解决时间与受益面的问题。堂上讲述与表演平台的搭建,不仅仅是训练了学童的口头表达能力,而且还可以在活动中检测学童的阅读水平与矫正学童的阅读误区,更重要的是可以激发学童课外自主阅读的积极性,增加阅读量,提高阅读能力。散文适合自主阅读与体悟:当下常用的方式是讲读结合。其实,儿童散文一般比较清新、浅近,教师只需点拨一下,可留下更多的时间让学生自主阅读体悟与交流读后感。堂上阅读体悟与交流平台的搭建,不仅可节省大量的堂上时间,而且有助培养学童专注阅读的习惯,更重要的是有助于学童自主学习与交流、探究能力的形成。搭建各种儿童文学学习的平台,可促使教师更多地从台前走向幕后,花更多的时间与精力进行教学设计,从整体上、根本上动摇以教师为主的阅读教学方式的传统,把时间与空间交还给学生,激发学生的阅读兴趣,搭建起语文课与学生的“语文生活”之间的通道,[6]从而解决困扰各层次教育者的“学生读书少及不爱读书”的问题。
回归其审美特质,促进作文教学难点问题的解决
学生怕写老师难教,因而写作教学不仅枯燥而且低效。学生为什么“怕”呢?一是写不出来;二是“写不好”。其实儿童文学可以帮师长们找出原因与方法:“写”不为心声,不是自然而为的,所以写不出;“好的评价”来自成人标准,不是孩子能理解的,所以写不好。要解决写不出的问题,其实教师们首先要像儿童文学作品一样回归儿童的世界,了解他们的心智与情感特点,提出合理的写作要求:写心声,语言自然(稚拙)。对于还“写”不出心声的第一学段的学生“说”出心声,其实已是“写”了。这其实就体现了李吉林老师所说的“提前起步”的作文教学理念的“提前”了,这种“提前”是教师对作文教学的意识提前,为第二学段的作文教学做好铺垫,并不是简单地将三年级的作文写作要求提到二年级甚至一年级下学期,使不少学生在这种要求的压抑下写不出作文来。随着年龄的增长,书写困难的解决,学生或急中生智或背水一战,“写不出”的问题会得到缓解,但随之而来的“写不好”的问题却更为普遍、更难解决。真的有那么多的孩子写不好吗?其实,其中不少的作品我们用儿童文学的审美特质去评判,则充满童真之趣。比如,有一个孩子写自己学琴时等待老师时的无聊心情,他不断地如实重复叙述他看到一个又一个学生来了,爬上楼梯,老师还没来,只好在走廊等,这样重复叙述了三四次。当然老师的评语是“重复啰嗦,应写出每个同学不同的细节。”这样的要求其实等同于福楼拜对莫泊桑的要求。站在非语文教师角色读这段文字:第一次叙述觉得“平”;第二次感觉“烦”;第三次有点想笑;第四次忍俊不住。回味整个片段很有荒诞派小说关于“无聊”情绪表现的艺术效果。教师们重温一下儿童文学的审美特质“纯真、稚拙、欢愉、变幻、朴素”,[7]就会发现有不少孩子的习作是写得很不错的。由是作文的问题,还不不仅是“分”的问题,还来自于成人对儿童的了解与尊重的问题———以适合孩子的标准判断他们的行为,包括写作活动,这样才能较好地解决作文教学的问题。对于孩子们来讲,有趣的语文课堂才会有效。儿童文学是孩子们的文学,他们喜欢它。教师有责任与义务在语文学习中让孩子们读自己喜欢的书,说自己想说的话,写自己能写的语言。
在传统钢琴教学中,存在着重技术、轻美感的不足,在培养少儿对音乐美的感知能力方面,有意识的训练相对比较缺乏。教师在授课过程中,往往以要求学生弹奏技术动作规范与准确,以及通过反复训练以获得技能水平的不断提升为重点。少儿阶段的学生,大多生性活泼好动,不容易建立稳定的学习兴趣,如果教师不去有意识地引导他们去发现、感受音乐的美,只是一味强调技术训练,孩子们在面对日复一日反复枯燥的单纯技术性练习时,不但体会不到学琴的快乐,还很容易失去学习兴趣。随着钢琴教育在我国的普及,让来自不同家庭、不同兴趣,具备不同能力的学生都能够通过钢琴的学习获得艺术素质的提高,是越来越多家长追求的目标。在钢琴教学中,如果在技能训练基础上,教师能采用更为合理、有效的教学策略对学生进行审美能力的培养,相信可以帮助学生获得感知、体验、理解音乐美的能力,从而达到这一目标。
二、少儿钢琴教学策略
(一)目标策略
目标策略是指在教学活动中,教师要建立正确的价值取向,明确艺术教育的目标,为所进行的教育活动树立正确的方向。作为美育的一种,艺术教育的目标是使人变得更富于创造力。在钢琴教学中,模仿是必然的,而模仿是促进还是阻碍了创造的产生,这直接受制于教师的价值取向———教师将学生的活动作为自我表达的方式还是仅为模仿?我们强调艺术教育要重视自我表达,自我表达是学生根据现有经验(认知、审美、情感的经验)来表现,模仿是扩大经验的一种途径。在模仿中培养观察力和理解力,积累到知觉、情感、审美等方面的经验,学生可以按自己的方法去表达,在这个过程中,独立思考的能力、创造力都得到了发展。教师在进行技术训练的同时,要重视学生潜能素质的培养,多让他们欣赏不同类型和风格的作品,体验作品传递的情感,提升美感经验,同时要用生动的语言帮助分析旋律所蕴含的情绪与思想,充分感受音乐的内涵,启发创造性思维,并在弹奏中将对音乐的感受通过自我的方式表达出来。当在此过程中出现一些自我的、具有一定创造性的东西时,教师应该给予鼓励,并引导学生去探索发现其新的价值,而不是一味地呵斥,把学生变成缺乏想象力和创造力的“唯命是从”的学习机器。当然对于出现的各种“创新”,教师也要引导学生选择性地进行有价值地取向,否则在无谓创新的同时会失去很多原本存在的美好东西。
(二)转化策略
指在教学活动中,教师需要转换固有的教学观念和思路,重视帮助学生建立稳定的学习兴趣。在当今钢琴教育中,单纯的技巧训练不是最终的学习目的,对于少儿学习者而言,更多时候需要培养其对音乐美的感受、体验和表现能力。如果在学习中花大量时间进行手指练习和解决技术难题等一些枯燥的内容,学生的好奇心就会被磨灭,学习兴趣根本无从谈起,因此,我们应多采取启发、引导的方式进行教学。弹奏前,教师要用比喻、讲故事等形式启发学生挖掘音乐内容,帮助他们在脑海里勾勒出形象或画面;弹奏时,要引导学生将说话中的逻辑性与旋律弹奏相联系,让乐曲中的旋律“说话”和“呼吸”,使每一个乐句从头到尾都是感情充沛的;布置作业时,可以将新作业进行故事化的讲解和有表情的示范,以增加学生的学习兴趣。平时可以引导学生多听磁带、唱片等,有条件的直接观看音乐家的指挥、演唱或演奏,此类观摩活动可以让学生直接感受音乐魅力,并极大地激发学习兴趣;可以去野外观察人与自然,所有的事物都会在脑海中留下美好的记忆,当他们在弹奏时,就可以自然地产生联想,使弹奏出的旋律因具有画面感而更加优美。在这种轻松的氛围中进行学习,会使学生身心愉悦,兴趣大增,不仅在无意识状态之中就进行了有效学习,而且还有利于帮助其稳定学习兴趣。
(三)匹配策略
指教师在教育过程中采取的教学方式要与学生喜爱或擅长的学习方式相适应,使学生能够发挥个人在学习方面的优势,达到预期的教学目标。在教学活动中,教师采取的教学方式是否与学生的学习方式相适应,取决于相互的认知风格是否匹配。针对学生认知风格的长处实施与之相一致的教学风格,称为匹配策略;针对学生认知风格的短处进行有意识的引导和弥补,称为失配策略。由于学生受到不同的遗传、家庭、个人等因素的影响,各人的发展存在客观差异。作为教学中的两个主体,一方面,教师需要了解并针对不同学生的认知风格调整教学策略,与之保持匹配;另一方面,学生要了解自身认知风格上的不足和缺陷,全面提高自身的能力。设计教学活动时,教师应考虑到学生接受信息时在感觉通道方面的个体差异,避开学习方式上的弱点或影响学习效果的因素,引导学生掌握并运用有利于自己的方式来学习。例如,在面对学习认真但缺乏创新意识和表现力的学生时,引导他们在相同的内容上尝试不同的表现方式,开启他们想象和表现的大门;在面对接受力和表现力很强,但缺乏刻苦精神的学生时,要引导他们细致观察,先说出自己对音乐的感知和理解,再动手进行有表情、有感情的表现。每个人(包括教师自己)都有适用于自己的学习方式,教师要意识到适合自己的学习方式不一定适合他人,要注意避免教学的主观化倾向,尽量采用与学习个体相匹配的方式进行教育。采取匹配策略进行教学,针对性强,能达到优化教学的效果。失配策略在一定程度上也可以对教学活动起到促进作用,但需要注意的是这种策略在前期会对学生造成一定的困扰,尤其针对学习的自觉、自控能力并不成熟的学生,可能会觉得无所适从,因此不宜经常采取失配策略。
(四)评价策略
评价策略是指通过正确掌握评价尺度,构建合理的评价标准,引导学生平衡学习心态,明确学习目的和方向,激发和维持学生的学习动机,逐步走向成功。学生必须志于学、乐于学,才能取得优良的成绩,教师的工作就是引导、帮助学生取得成功,而学生的成功往往源于教师的鼓励。在教学中,教师要学习赞赏学生的独特性、爱好、专长;赞赏学生付出的努力和表现的善意;赞赏学生对教材的质疑和对自己的超越。每节课以鼓励、肯定为主,针对不足部分进行讲解时,先肯定优点,再提出要求。这种激励性评价有益于学生树立信心,积极进取。鼓励或批评,都是为实现某一目标而实施的手段,鼓励是增加动力,批评是增加压力,在教育中这两点都是需要的。对于缺乏自信的学生,要抓住点滴进步进行表扬和鼓励,可以激发其学习动力;对于能力强、容易骄傲自满的学生,要在肯定的基础上,指出缺点和不足进行批评,鞭策其向更高的目标努力奋进。不论鼓励或批评都会使学生的心理发生变化,作为教师最重要的就是根据学生的不同情况,掌握好评价的尺度,使评价成为有效教学的杠杆。在针对学生的弹奏进行评价时,教师还要特别关注评价的标准。我们不应该以“像不像”来评价每个学生的艺术创造和表现,而应该更多地关注学生体验其经验和表现的程度。学习钢琴弹奏的主要目的就是提高鉴赏音乐美的能力,增强对音乐美的理解和表现,教师需要了解学生的学习特点,才能保护好每一个学生的表现欲望,通过正确合理的评价促使学生以一种自我肯定的、富有创造性的态度去感受、表现音乐,以持续的热情去表现他们感受到的音乐之美。

1. Introduction
As a rule, the teaching of reading in senior schools, both public and private, will move in one of two directions: up or down. When effectively taught, the study of reading can be the most exciting event of the adolescent student’s day. Young people can become deeply engrossed in what they read. They can respond with intensity and conviction.
Interests as factors in genuinely productive reading study are slippery elements indeed. Inventories provided to students in an attempt to discover what they prefer in reading materials can be, and often are, faked by the inventory takers. Thus, the discrepancy between what some young people claim they enjoy reading and what they will actually interact with can be a significant one. Furthermore, teachers must be ever mindful of the differences between their interest, taste, and enthusiasms for certain material selections and those of their students.
How about the situation of reading in senior schools in China? Most students are lack of interest and motivations in reading. The purpose of their reading is to pass the exam. As a result, the students do a little reading outside lessons. Why did these problems exsist?
2. Interest in Reading
In leading young people toward increased reading awareness, teachers used to consider the nature and extent of the interest factor on those efforts. Interesting are a two-edged sword. When positive, they can enhance teachers’ efforts to involve their students in the concern with reading materials and do so most significantly. When negative, however, they present a formidable obstacle to meaningful transaction taking place between texts and readers.
2.1The Status of Reading in senior Middle School
This is an accurate picture of the reading programs in many middle and secondary schools that still have students move chronologically through the literature anthology and choose the traditional classics as their outside reading. Most students are simply unable to connect the text with their goals, level of development and experience. Language development affects cognitive development and vice versa students at this age read at a much higher level of ability when they are reading something that matches their developmental interests and goals. Most students cannot read classic literature well [i.e, they cannot have personal involvement with it]. Students think of the literature as something they cannot understand; therefore, they think they are not intelligent inpiduals.
‘‘The result of the survey about the status of reading which were done by John S. Simmons reflected that Middle school and high school students often balk at display of overt enthusiasm for the selections they are asked to read in the class precisely because they are adolescents. To many of them, the fact that a work is on the required list means that it simply cannot be interesting. They will doggedly refrain from any display of enthusiastic or appreciate response despite the teachers ’creative efforts or the actual effect the work has had on them. ‘Boring’ become the operative judgment. In reading that categorical implacable judgment, they retain their cool demeanor, on which they value above all else. When faced with such study they often have melodramatic indifference.’’[1]p(20)
It seems that school have accomplished just the opposite of what they intended to do. They have turned students off from reading rather than made them lifelong readers. Teachers have failed to choose reading materials that enable students to become emotionally and cognitively involved in what they read. If students are asked to read literature that is not consistent with their development tasks, they will not be able to interact fully with that literature. As a result, students who do not interact with the literature are left with leaning only about literature.
“The same problems also exist in most senior schools in China. Students’ purpose of reading is only to finish the work given by teachers or pass exam. When they finish their work, they stopping reading, for they are asked to read the traditional classics that are chosen in order to complete the teaching mission. But the classics are written in a style and with syntax and vocabulary that are often quite foreign to students in senior middle school. So most students think of literature as something that is difficult for them’’.[2] I have talked to some teachers and students in senior middle school. I have found that most students appeal that their reading materials are difficult and not suitable for them. They can understand the meaning well. So they don’t like to read.
2.2 Factors That Affect Interest in Reading
“The key factor to determine reading is choosing suitable reading material to students. Obviously, there will be many students who will turn away from the task of studying literature because of inadequate competence in the necessary reading skill. Metaphoric expressions, for example, abound in all literary works, whether they are fictional, poetic, or dramatic. Such expressions are placed in those works to clarity indeed intensity, the meanings those works. When students are unable to establish precise relationships between metaphors and their referents, however, what was put there to clarity produces confusion instead. It doesn’t take many such experiences in missed communication to discourage or vex less able readers. Given the additional problem of these students’ probably limited attention spans, the options of giving up selection which is metaphoric are often the one taken. Even though the classics literature may speak to the universal human condition, young people have trouble relating because they have not experienced many of those human condition.
At the same time, some links need to be established between that ability and the interest. Interest in reading fluctuates widely before the age of sixteen, an age at which many students begin to think seriously about choices affecting their future: college, military service, industrial careers, dropping out of the academic scene altogether, and so forth. For most young people, interest in reading usually peaks between the age of twelve and fourteen. It is a period of intense, prolonged introspection in which the desire to raise and organize problems about self is at its height. It is a kind of limbo between a lost childhood and approaching adulthood. People at this age tend to be more interested in being alone with their lives. For some, reading fictions, especially novels which delve into the teenage experience, can be a source of comfort, challenge, stimulation, and escape. Young adult literature focuses on the nature and availability of literature with which youngsters at that difficult stage of their lives can identify.”[3]
John S. Simmons point out “People in these years are also capable of, and often involved in, deeper reflection that centers on abstract concepts: love, loyalty, fear, justice, betrayal, and the like. Obviously, their reading can feed this preoccupation, but the fare must be nourishing. In short, abstract thinking may contain a profound concern with interpersonal relationships, and reading can provide countless opportunities for them to view their problems from the detached prism of fiction.’’[4](p75)
‘‘Some of these interpersonal problems will be quite obvious. Some mention of them should be made.
1)
Problems related to communication with younger siblings, partially stemming from thirteen-year-olds’ desire that the ‘‘little people’’ regard them as adult-and these younger children’s irritating reluctance to cooperate;
2)
Problems related to the conflicting need to be accepted into a peer group;
3)
Problems which reside in thirteen-year-olds’ ambivalence toward members of the opposite sex (i.e, culture and peer pressure, clash with hormones). The gap between girls’ and boys’ relative immaturity exacerbates this greatly.
In all of the above, imaginative literature can become a source of excitement, revelation, guidance, and solace. Teachers as guidance counselors can be of great personal assistance to adolescents in their struggles. The movement of middle school curricula toward an emphasis on the personal and social identities of early adolescents, rather than on the cultural heritage into which they will someday be assimilated, provides a whole new niche for literature to occupy, one in which its relevance to the nature of the early teenage years can be maximized.’’[5](p75-76)
3. The Possibility and Practicality of Using Young Adult Literature as Reading Materials for Outside Reading
Teachers in senior middle school are usually responsible for introducing the study of literature to their students: Young Adult Literature can serve as an excellent vehicle for such an introduction. Teachers in senior middle school who deal with students of lower ability, non-academic motivations, and limited cultural backgrounds should also consider the use of Young Adult Literature to provide insight into the nature of literature study for those inpiduals. Young Adult Literature seems to offer an abundant and valuable resource to teachers who want to guide their students through this transition.
3.1 The Character of Young Adult Literature
Donelson and Nilsen offer the definition of Young Adult Literature:‘‘ any book freely choose for reading by some one in this age group’’.[6]p(2) Later it was defined as ‘literature written or marketed primarily for teenagers; Books to whose main characters the teenagers can personally relate; stories with an uncomplicated, often single plot line; books with plot that address the concerns of the young adults; literature that attracts a young adult readership’[7]p(2) Compared with the definition offered by Nilsen and Donelson, this definition is more specific and comprehensive. In recent years, Young Adult Literature is also considered as ‘books written for adult, about young adult and liked by young adults’ and more and more teachers prefer to match young adult books with classics bearing similar themes; thus, the genre of Young Adult Literature is further expanded.
As a reading material, young adult literature has many common characteristics: conflicts are often consisted with the young adult’s experience, themes are of interest to young people, protagonists and most characters are young adults, and language parallels that of young people. It is simply written in a natural, flowing language much like the way in which the young adults speak. Young adult literature is usually shorter. The young adult can finish in a comparatively short time without feeling tired and bored. This will guarantee an engaged and efficient reading. And Young Adult Literature is graded reading materials meeting young people’s different level intellectual development.
3.1.1 Young adult’s emotional development
‘‘Adolescence and preadolescence are difficult, unsettled periods for young people. They are no longer children. They are no yet adults. It is a time of change: a time for physical growth, sexual awareness, emotional and cognitive development. As young people move through these experiences or stages, they seem to be so alone in their struggle. But few of young people asked their parents and other adults to help them through their difficult period in their lives. Reading books helps young adults in their journey –their rites of passage—into adulthood. Books provide experiences that may help young adults through their adolescent years. Providing young people with Young Adult Literature not only in the bookstores but also in the class is imperative if we want adolescents to read about more experiences than they could have on their own. In addition, this literature serves young people in their struggle with identity, with their relationships with adults, and with their choices, which often suggest their concern with moral questions of right and wrong.’[8](p25)
3.2 Effective and Positive Influence
‘‘Young adult literature provides enjoyment, satisfaction and literary quality while it brings life and hope and reality to young people. The wide range of topics in Young Adult Literature such as friendship, death, porce, alienation, sibling rivalry, peer cruelty, racism, hostility and egocentricity, even struggle, conflict and feeling of the futility and hopelessness of life dramatize life in unfamiliar environments as experienced by characters of the learner’s own age. And therefore stimulate learners in encouraging self-expression and idea exploration. In this way, literature enlarges the students’ knowledge and understanding of human behavior for it exhibits thoughts and feelings which are often concealed in real life. Students, on the other hand, bring their unique life experience and world look when coming to read a text in class. Their confirming, revising or refuting the original outlook after confronting the writer’s view enable them to come up with a new understanding of the world .Then they will share their readings with their peers and teachers and reshape their understanding if needed. This aesthetic stance of reading is quite different from the traditional way of reading in that the former allows readers to have a virtual experience, living in the story world, connecting with characters, being emotionally involved while the latter focuses on looking for facts defined by Rosenblatt as ‘efferent reading’ which actually prevents learner from achieving the power of English expression.
Young Adult Literature is an attractive and motivational reading source that will satisfy the young adults’ reading interest at a particular age and help develop youngsters’ reading proficiency. Over a long period of time, Chinese young learners have been usually recommended to read some classic adult literature in simplified various which are considered as unappealing or out-dated. Young Adult Literature is a bridge between children’s literature and adult literature. It reflects a unique yet universal period of biological change and development for each human being.’’[9](p21-22)
3.3 Students Own Response
When Sullivan asked her students for information about their reading interest and habit, a ninth student said: ‘I love to read, but I hate literature’. He suggested that what he was reading in school had nothing, or at least very little, to do with him. He told us that his book report offered some relief because he could usually choose something that he knew how he would like, but what he read in the classroom was as he called it ‘dumb’.[10]P(156)
The details those students offer support the previous summary most have a very exciting experience with literature during their elementary schooling, but the break in this happy experience comes as they enter junior high or middle school.
There is obviously a wide chasm between what the school offers for students to read and what the students want to read in reading program. Students have had fewer experiences—and for some, no experience at all—in such areas as marriage and porce, ambition, greed and hate, so it is more difficult for them to make honest responses about what meaning is true for them. In contrast, when the book has a teenager as the protagonist and other young adult characters, the balance of knowledge and the authority that is brought in that reading is changed. Young adult are more easily able to evaluate the characters, their problems and the resolution of these problems.
4. The Power of Young Adult Literature Reading
One of the key reasons for students’ low interest in English learning is lack of the attractive and coherent reading material. Reading material which are used in the school are exam-oriented and boring which may hinder the students enthusiasm for learning English. Simultaneously, affect plays an important role in the learning English and English teaching should arouse the learners’ interest and motivation. The influence of Young Adult Literature reading materials in stimulating the learners’ love of reading and English learning from the prospect of affective factors is obvious. The qualitative evidence further proves that students really enjoy reading and sharing what they read with the peers. Benefits of other kinds from the Young Adult Literature reading are also obvious; such as increased vocabulary, faster reading speed and better reading comprehension. More encouraging is the fact that the majority of students are determined to read continuously after the experiment.
5. Using Young Adult Literature Materials outside Class in Senior Middle School---The Teaching Procedure
Outside reading promotes the initiative activity with the students. It is not forced by teaching missions. Students can choose the reading materials which they are interested in. As the counselors, teachers have to teach students how to ensure an effective outside reading.
5.1 Selecting Reading Materials
Choosing the appropriate reading materials is a key factor to the students’ love of reading. A very important part of the appropriate materials selection for any English or language is age appropriate. Day and Bamford state that ‘‘getting students to read extensively depends critically on what they read. The reading materials must be both easy and interesting. If the books do not appeal to most of the class, then all the efforts will be in vain.’’[11](P49) It seems appropriate to offer a minimal reminder as we select a novel for study as an example of what can be done in a response-centered class. If we expect students to have sufficient experience for a response, they must be able to relate in some manner to the assigned literature.
Karolides states the significance of using appropriate reading materials: ‘‘the language of a text the situation, characters, or the expressed issues can dissuade a reader from comprehension of the text and thus inhibit involvement with it. In effect, if the reader has insufficient linguistic or experiential background to allow participation, the reader cannot relate to the text, and reading act will be short-circuited.’’[12]) (P132)
In practice of selection, students can be invited to skim the information about a book around the book cover. Use the information in the picture, the famous critiques, the plot summary, the table of contents, the classified category, ect, to make guesses about what they are going to read is an efficient way to select interesting book.
Therefore, teachers must find the interesting, attractive and enjoyable materials that are personally significant to our students and that are within their linguistic ability.
5.2 Conducting Group-discussion
It is best, however, to allow students to lead the discussion of the novel. This approach teaches students that they can function with self-sufficiency and without teachers influencing their responses.
‘‘Small-group discussions may give students an opportunity to discuss some of their most important responses before sharing them in the large group. The small groups may also be used to allow students to further explore the general response that they shared in the large group. Students often feel less threatened in small groups and are more willing to explore ideas in that setting. Like large groups, smaller groups must have rules of behavior that enable students to function effectively in the interaction. Students must feel secure with their responses, and they must responses to others. They will recognize similarly among all of the responses.’’[13]
‘‘The teachers’ listening skills are crucial in this initial phase. As students react, you may need to make follow-up statements, questions, or acknowledgments to help them clarify, justify, or elaborate on their ideas. If the discussion drags, use generic question early in the discussion and more content-specific question later in the process. Try to keep these questions at a minimum and emphasize the teachers’ spontaneous reaction to students’ response because reactions are much more meaningful to students, and they help move the discussion on using students’ ideas rather than teachers’.
Here are some questions types to elicit students ’response:
Questions requiring students to remember facts:
Describe…
List…
What…?
Questions requiring students to prove or disprove a generalization made by someone else.
Would someone like to comment on that point?
OK. Anybody wants to add to what…said?
Question requiring students to derive their own generalizations.
How did you feel at the end of the story?
What did it mean to you?
Anything you want to talk about?
Questions requiring students to generalize about the relation of the total work to human experience
What …mean? / What is the author saying by….?
What is the significance of the statement…?
Question requiring students to carry generalization derived from the work into their own lives.
What were your first associations?
Can you relate the story to anything in your own experience?’’[14](p31)
5.3 Performing a Creative Drama
Role-play and improvisation expand the boundaries of experiences for students so that they develop a more complete understanding of themselves and the literature they are reading. Through role-playing and improvisation, students are able to think as characters would think and act as characters would act. Students take on a persona different from their own and work at making that character come alive as they perceive what that character would be like if he or she was real.
5.4 Writing a Book Report
“Responding reports including book report, the journal, the narrative, the personal essay, help students to become personally involved with the literature. They begin by having students make personal responses. After students have read and written about the novel on a personal level, they are ready to move to a more ‘intellectual’ level. They now think about the author’s craft: what strategies and techniques did the author use to generate the responses students have?
Responding reports also integrate reading and writing. Students can enjoy the totality of the novel by responding to the ideas presented and by understanding the techniques used by the author. Their thoughts about a particular issue or a question are a novel change as they move through the first draft of that paper. Many say that they use the journal in making these initial drafts. The very act of writing triggers other new responses. Some ideas are abandoned; other is expanded. Students feel more at ease when responding to a work in this way because they are in control of how they respond: how they structure their responses, what they include, and what they omit. As a result, they will grow in their understanding of their novel in particular and of literature in general.’’[15]
5.5 Reading management
Whether young Adult Literature can be used successfully as English outside reading materials largely depends on skillful management of the teachers that should be alert to avoid the old-ways of teaching. Traditional approach in teaching emphasizes close reading of the text with all the historical and cultural clues removed to find the only correct meaning in the text. Experienced teachers have with needed the degree to which motivation, whatever its origins, can lead to over learning by students who otherwise lack needed reading skills or broad sophistication in facing certain works of literature. When they are genuinely turned on, it is amazing what some youngsters can accomplish in the classroom. Conversely, well-prepared teachers usually find only frustration when they present works to indifferent groups, no matter how high the quality of those works are.
“Wang Xiaoping suggests that the following methods are effective:
1)
Using a familiar literary source or a song, a poem, a picture, a book cover, etc. to lead students into the text;
2)
Allowing students a quiet reading of partial text;
3)
Revealing just enough facts about the text to arouse students’ interest in the new work;
4)
Relating in discussion the text themes to students’ present concerns. [16](p30)
Positive teachers create enthusiastic readers. Creative oral and written activities with young adult literature have a positive effect on young people. Teachers must create within each class a positive atmosphere, a way of life conductive to promoting reading through positive affect. Positive teachers are realistic but always look for the best in their students. Teachers have an important role in fostering this reader response. They also share in the responsibility of helping students with their developmental tasks, growing moral judgment, and reading appreciation. The teacher participates in the discussion as an ordinary reader but also as a facilitator
Encourage students to talk extensively
Help students makes a community of meaning
Talk turns talking
Don’t interrupt
Ask. Don’t tell
Give comments, but be nice
Affirm students’ responses
Encourage reluctant readers
The affective studies of Rosenthal and Jacobsin showed that teacher’s positive attitudes toward the learning capabilities of students designated as likely to make substantial gains did, in fact help teachers provide a learning environment where those students prospered.[17](p49) We believe that creative oral and written activities with young adult literature have a positive effect on young people.
6. Conclusion
Young Adult Literature with its special features is considered as the reading material for the students in senior middle school. Its effective power is very helpful for the students. The teachers who work in some way with young people require familiarity with the characteristics of this age group. It is important that teachers know about young adult literature. In the western countries, reading literature is one of the most important courses in the school. In addition the relationships between teachers and students and teaching material are free and active. They can choose the teaching materials which they are interested in and change the teaching courses or ways freely. So they taught young adult literature to students in the classroom. The situation in China is similar. Different from the native speakers, the students in China do little literature reading because of the difficulty and cultural difference. Most teachings are done only for exams and teaching missions. So in China we have greater difficulties in promoting the use of young adult literature for outside reading.
So far, the research in this field is comparatively limited. Young adult literature is not available in most of the schools and most teachers find it difficult to put it into practice. And we have a lot of practical problems to solve. Nevertheless, if we keep on trying a practice we will fine more effective ways to enhance our students’ English interest and improve reading abilities.

我还记得当年站在成都金牛宾馆礼堂的领奖台上的那个情景,那是2011年7月10日,阳光飞扬剑桥国际少儿英语明星学员大赛西南地区颁奖典礼在成都金牛宾馆礼堂隆重举行。当主持人宣布获得阳光飞扬剑桥国际少儿英语明星学员大赛西南地区一等奖的王子傲上台领奖时,我兴致勃勃地走上领奖台,阳光飞扬董事长蒋孝彬先生亲自为我颁发了荣誉证书、奖牌、奖品及鲜花。我右手捧着荣誉证书和鲜花,左手拿着属于我的奖牌,前面是一个免费游学清华北大的礼品牌子。我真是心潮澎湃,热血沸腾,内心的喜悦不由得使我心花怒放。我高兴的简直就要跳起来了,因为,我可以去我的梦想学堂清华大学游玩。
这次我能获得西南地区英语比赛一等奖,是我平时刻苦努力学习英语,经过为时三个月、历经初赛、复赛、决赛三个阶段的艰辛努力的结果。虽然,我取得如此成绩,只是我在学习英语中迈出了第一步,有了一个良好的开端,我还要继续努力,争取一定要奔向清华大学。
合上这枚贝壳,我继续漫步在记忆的沙滩之上
必读:名师写作手法介绍
在现代文阅读的题目中,常常有一些概念分不清,从而导致答题错误。特别是当题目问表达方式、写作方法和修辞手法时,经常是问此答彼,怎样区别它们呢?
表达方式,是指写文章时所采用的反映社会生活、表达思想感情、介绍事物事理的方式手段。常用的表达方式有5种,即:记叙(叙述)、议论、抒情、描写和说明。
记叙文主要以记叙和描写为主,其中兼有说明、抒情和议论;说明文主要以说明为主,也有叙述、议论甚至描写;议论文以议论为主,兼有记叙、说明或是抒情。
写作方法,也叫表现手法,是指在文学创作中塑造形象、反映生活所运用的各种具体方法和技巧。包括:对比、象征、托物言志(托物喻人)、欲扬先抑、衬托(烘托)、夸张讽刺、借景抒情、前后照应等。像《白杨礼赞》一文借赞美白杨树挺拔向上、不屈不挠的精神来赞美北方的农民,采用的是象征的写作方法。
“关于纽伯瑞奖,我们知道得越来越多”
由首都师范大学外国语学院举办的《美国纽伯瑞青少年文学金奖作品研究》研讨会日前在京举行。研讨会围绕该书出版的意义、我国青少年文学研究的现状以及如何加强国内学术研究与出版交流等话题展开讨论。
由河北少儿社出版的《美国纽伯瑞青少年文学金奖作品研究》是目前为止惟一对纽伯瑞奖进行集中评介的论集,也是一个了解美国的青少年文学的窗口。该书主编、首都师范大学副教授王小萍介绍说,在大学英语教学的过程中,她对英语青少年文学产生了兴趣,并逐渐将关注点集中在纽伯瑞奖获奖作品上,因为这个奖项代表了美国儿童文学的一种趋势。她提到,在纽伯瑞奖作品研究过程中,原版书籍和资料的收集、阅读是最大的困难,尽管他们通过各种渠道尽最大努力来呈现这些作品,但还是没能够进行全面的研究,有些作品只能舍弃。
作者选取电子媒介时代的童年和儿童文学研究这个课题非常具有现实性和前瞻性。童年为何要再现?儿童文学如何面临重构?这与电子媒介的飞速发展密切相关。
二十世纪中后期,电视、网络等电子媒介兴起并开始深刻影响社会的方方面面。在享受电子媒介为我们创造的各种便利的同时,一些困扰也萦绕在了我们的身边。在经济利益的驱逐下,收视率、收听率、点击率、发行率、上座率纷纷追高,由此带来的问题是全民皆娱乐,社会整体浮躁。人们越来越习惯电子媒介带来的快捷便利,立体刺激的声光电胜过黑白交织的平面文字。提笔忘字的人多了,静下心来思考的人少了。美国的媒体文化研究者和批评家尼尔・波兹曼向世人警示:“我们将毁于我们所热爱的东西。”“泛娱乐化”倾向对国民心理、社会风气、人生观和价值观的树立等方面带来的负面效应已经日益显见。在这样的时代背景下,儿童和青少年的教育也不无例外地面临着前所未有的巨大挑战。像尼尔・波兹曼在《娱乐至死》一书中所说:“媒介文化把传播和文化凝聚成一个动力学过程,将每个人裹挟其中。于是,媒介文化变成我们当代日常生活的仪式和景观。”我国有不少文学批评家和理论家已就媒介和媒介对文学的影响展开研究。欧阳友权指出:在数字化媒介的强势覆盖下,“读图”胜于读文,“读屏”多于读书,直观遮蔽沉思,冲击美感,文化符号趋于图像叙事。图像文化的视觉冲击不断挤压着文字阅读的市场空间,萎缩了文学消费的读者阵营。
谭旭东敏锐地捕捉到了电子媒介给我们的生活带来的种种变化并从个人的童年经验出发,认为电子媒介对当今儿童的影响是巨大的。首先,儿童面对的是印刷文化和电子文化相交织的文化环境,在这一环境里,儿童从上辈那里线性地接受文化熏染已不可能。其次,电子媒介改变了儿童的思维方式和行为方式,电子信息形成了儿童新的认知图式和认知心理,从而使其童年体验发生变化。传统的教育体系已不可避免地遭到电子媒介的解构。在印刷文化时代,儿童的社会化更多的是依赖读书和学校教育,而电子媒介的兴起构成了教育的挑战力量,电子媒介在学校教育和家庭教育之外参与了儿童的社会化过程。
作者对儿童所处的境况深感焦虑,通过阅读西方学者论著发现,虽然他们在探讨电子媒介对儿童的影响和对文学的影响方面有着相当的深度和广度,但媒介与儿童特别是和儿童文学内在或外在之联系的研究还存在空白地带。国内当代文学批评界和文化研究专家对电子媒介对于儿童和儿童文学的影响也缺乏研究。作者深刻洞察并敏锐地捕捉到了这一空白,勇敢而自觉地担纲此课题,并希望以此抛砖引玉,引发更多学者对这些问题的思考。
这部论著的思路很清晰,其基本观点是:童年是在儿童观、儿童教育和读写文化等多种合力的作用下被历史地建构起来并得以确认的,电子媒介时代的到来,儿童教育文化和印刷文化都遭到了电子媒介文化的解构,童年生态遭到破坏。面对童年的这种危机,必须重塑儿童文化,以新的教育文化和阅读文化来抵制电子媒介文化的负面影响,达到呵护童年和捍卫童心的目的。儿童文学作为儿童文化的一部分,在电子媒介所导引的商业文化、娱乐文化的影响下也出现了种种问题,因此必须重建儿童文学,才能使儿童文学成为呵护童心、捍卫童年的儿童文化。
关键词:语文教学;课外阅读;指导方法
课外阅读是语文学习的重要途径。对小学生来说,做好课外阅读,不仅可以大大拓宽学生的视野,提高语文能力,还可以丰富学生的人文涵养,塑造良好的品质和健康的人格。许多作家、学者成功的经验表明,语文素养的提高,大都得益于大量且广泛阅读。新课标第一次规定了小学生课外阅读量,并提出阅读速度的要求。这是对语文教育改革的一次突破,对小学语文教学有着较好的指导作用。因此,教师必须把指导学生课外阅读作为教学的一项重要任务。下面我想结合教学实践,谈谈怎样指导小学生课外阅读。
一、营造良好氛围,激发小学生课外阅读的兴趣
披文而入情,读书重在激情。我们要营造良好的读书氛围,使学生受到情感的陶冶。一个喜欢阅读的教师更容易带出一批喜欢阅读的学生。教师首先要在教学中利用一切适当的机会营造良好氛围,激发学生对课外阅读的兴趣。如在教学《福尔摩斯的推断》时,我发现学生对福尔摩斯特别佩服,就不失时机地让学生去收集、阅读有关福尔摩斯的文章。学习了《嫦娥奔月》后,让学生收集如《开天辟地》《女蜗补天》等许多中国古代有名的神话故事。这样有目的的进行课外阅读,既能增强学生对课外阅读的兴趣,又能提高他们n外阅读的质量。
班级读书会也是小学生在学习伙伴间形成课外阅读的氛围重要形式,主要做法是:先引导学生用一段课外时间读一本教师或同学推荐的书,然后用一个集中的时间由同学和教师共同对该读物自由讨论,也可以交流一些同学的读后感等。可以让阅读成为游戏一样的童年生活。
此外,开展读书笔记评展、精彩诗篇朗诵会,以及利用影视作品开展影视主题活动都是营造阅读氛围的好办法,都可激发学生的课外阅读兴趣,促使学生把课外阅读当成一种自发性、有渴求欲的自我行为。
二、引导小学生选择合适的课外读物
小学生在阅读中,面对身边各种各样的书,常常不知如何取舍,不知读哪一本好,也不知如何去读,对于这些问题教师如果不重视,学生很容易对阅读失去兴趣,引导小学生选择合适的课外读物要注意以下几点。
小学生都具有好奇心强、好表现的心理特点,比较渴望神秘、冒险、刺激,仰慕机智、勇敢、轰轰烈烈等。同时,小学生的认知水平、接受能力都有限。根据这些特点,我精心挑选学生喜闻乐见的经典儿童读物,如《海底两万里》《木偶奇遇记》《吹牛大王历险记》,以及安徒生、格林兄弟的作品甚至迪尼斯的故事等。这些经典儿童文学书籍既是符合儿童心理和认知发展水平的课外读物,又能促进他们完美地发展,纯净孩子的精神世界,敞亮孩子的心扉,激发他们一生的文化向往。
三、指导小学生掌握正确的阅读方法
张之洞曾经说过:“读书不得要领,劳而无功。”小学生课外阅读个体性强,随意性大,受控因素小。因此教师要指导学生学会阅读方法,培养良好的阅读习惯。
1.加强课内外沟通,拓宽阅读渠道
首先,我们要充分利用教材,指导阅读方法,拓宽阅读渠道。在教学实践中,我经常以课本为出发点,有计划地拓展学生的阅读视野,拓宽学生的知识面。如,教学《新型玻璃》前,布置学生翻阅与课文相关,相近的文章、资料等。学生遨游在知识的海洋里,学习兴趣大增,课堂上竞相发言。如有的同学说:“我想做一套这样的房子,它可以飞、可以潜水、还能冲出宇宙,寻找更新的世界。”有的同学说:“我想让每户人家都装上一扇智能门锁。把家庭每个成员的相貌、声音、指纹等信息输入电脑,它就能轻而易举地识别出来,只要主人触摸门锁,它便自动打开,对其他人则不理不睬。”各种有创意的构想如汩汩泉水涌出。学生在课堂学习的基础上,再读读原汁原味的作品或类似的书,使知识纵横沟通。
2.根据不同文体,进行分类指导
各种课外读物的阅读方法是不同的,应根据不同的文体,采用不同的阅读方法。我根据小学生的年龄特点,从怎样阅读连环画、童话、寓言、故事、小说、科普读物、优秀作文和少儿报刊进行分类指导。如指导学生读少儿报刊,运用浏览和细读两种方法。指导学生拿到报纸先统览全貌,大致了解有哪些消息和文章,然后选择重要的、新鲜的和自己感兴趣的细读。还教给学生根据专题收集资料剪贴、写摘要、做卡片的方法。
四、培养小学生良好的阅读习惯
培养学生的阅读习惯是阅读教学的任务之一。良好的阅读习惯可以使小学生乐意阅读、有效阅读、享受阅读。在指导课外阅读的过程中,我注意从以下几方面培养小学生的阅读习惯。
1.训练读书用眼的习惯
减少眼动次数,逐步扩大阅读视野,缩短注视字词时间,减少回视,这样既提高阅读的准确性,又能提高读速,形成默读习惯。
2.训练阅读时用脑的习惯
文章大体分三种体裁:记叙文、说明文、议论文。而这三种文章各有不同的阅读步骤,如:记叙文的阅读步骤为:文章题目―文章体裁―主要人物―时间―地点―事件―中心思想。每次,拿到记叙文的阅读材料时,边读、边思、边记这些要点,达到理解记忆。
3.训练“不动笔墨不读书”的习惯
有人说:读书是苦的累的。作为学生,不仅要学习许多知识点,阅读大量中外名着,甚至有时会被老师“教育”一番。可我认为,读书是快乐的。下面给大家分享一些关于读书高三议论文2020范文,希望对大家有所帮助。
读书高三议论文范文1读村上的作品是友人荐的,他借了我本《且听风吟》,说是让我感受村上的文风。我是一个感性多一点的欠理性的生物,故往往对文字优美的作品情有独钟,少些大家级别的思想深度无关紧要。一观此书名,心生一股欣赏的冲动。在一阵虎咽般的吞咽下,没寻到由书名而联想到的文笔和情节,倒是脑中徒增一丝不解与阴郁。但尽管如此,书中简单的文字风格着实磁铁般的深深地吸引了我。
莫名的感动之余,借了本村上的《挪威的森林》。阅前的我曾是一个不择不扣的乐天派,认为世界是美好的,活着是幸福的。可自掀开《挪威的森林》的扉页起,内心愈发迷惑,愈发压抑得无法呼吸。合书后的心情自是可见:除对村上淡淡的笔调的认可外,剩下的便是因主人公不算可歌可泣却绝对悲烈的经历产生的一丝悲伤和彷徨。而此感在与自身青春岁月的缺陷而系后便被无限的放大了。
这令人窒息的忧伤直至读完《活着》而痊愈。或许《活着》是《挪威的森林》的一剂解毒药,或许这关系本末倒置也应无可厚非吧,又有谁能知哪个是毒药呢?又或许本不应称解毒药,谁又能保证不会因《挪威的森林》一般的人或事而再次中毒呢?
若我们在悲观与乐观中来回摇摆而渡过一生时,的悲哀也就降临了。这也就是常说的缺乏坚定的信念。乐观是一种信念,悲观亦是。不同时期从两者不断切换时,信念便被举棋不定的犹豫而代替了,风格亦随之消失了。如此,我们就可被代替,存于世的价值便会被这可代替性分解得烟消云散了。正如士兵在教官的口哨声中左转右转一样,还是原地未动,却惹了一身疲惫,真正糟糕之处便在于此。联想到人生,在人生的十字路口本是沿着一个方向坚定走下去,却总是左转和右转,中毒、解毒、再中毒,喘息之余忽得发现,自己离起点只有一步而已。其实在十字路口的迷失不是因选错方向,而是不断地变换方向。
说到底,这悲哀源于读者只读不思或读后略思造成的。未经沉重思考而赞同并吸收作者思想,其内心应未真的感动,只是暂时的感染而已。过段时日,其所中之“毒”便被其他书籍给解了。如此反复,其颗粒无收,书读越多,越是迷惑,空付(负)了时间。
读书之正道,依愚之见,当是精贵于多。此精有两层涵义:一,书本的可读性高;二,读者对书中所阐释的内容完全理解(关于赞同与否,那就见仁见智了)。
如若余之言,然善读书者鲜已。
读书高三议论文范文2从物质方面来说,它是传播信息和知识的桥梁;从精神方面来说,它是帮助失意的人们重振信心的一剂良药。书,拉近了时间的距离,缩短了地域的间隔;书,在感悟中获得境界;书,在欣赏中放松心情,愉悦身心,修身养性。
是的,书籍是人类进步的阶梯。生活里缺少了书籍,就好像大地没有太阳;智慧里缺少了书籍,就好像鸟儿没有了翅膀。
俗话说:“水养人,书养心。”我对书算是情有独钟。我喜欢倚在书架旁嗅着金檀木的清香,轻轻拂开一页页的书,陶醉于优美的意境。
有了书籍这条思想的航船,我就像海面一样吸收着知识的海水。在《卖火柴的小女孩》里,我明白了什么叫美与丑,善与恶;在《少儿百科全书》里,牛顿、爱迪生、玛丽·居里那些伟大的科学家们都在向我招手,指引我前方的路,也让我看到了光明,看到了那科学顶峰的灿烂,在其中体验知识的真谛,科学的美丽,在知识的海洋中遨游;在《老人与海》中,我看见一个老人同鲨鱼的斗争,力量虽然薄弱却又如此强大,在那浊浪排空的海域中,我理解了老人对海的不屈斗争……我就这样乐此不疲地在书海中遨游着。不亦乐乎!
“冰冻三尺,非一日这寒;滴水穿石,非一日之功。”正如杜甫所说:“读书破万卷,下笔如有神。”孔子手不释卷,才有“韦德三绝”的故事,中华才有这位大名鼎鼎的教育家和思想家。鲁迅正是用别人休息的时间加紧学习,才成了中国的先锋。因此,读书也是要靠顽强的毅力的。
记得有一次,我向同学借了本书,叫《骑鹅历险记》,这本书非常的厚,还没看到来一半我就想放弃,可当我想到鲁迅、别别孔子成功的缘由时,便咬咬牙,重捧那本书,花了半个月的时间终于看完了,我才为差一点看不到这本书而感到惋惜。
孤独时,书是益友;烦闷时,书是敞开的窗户;阴霾时,书是灿烂的阳光……
书,我的好朋友。
读书高三议论文范文3书籍是人类进步的阶梯。
读书破万卷,下笔如有神。
书读百遍,其义自见。
读书,是为了让我们增加知识量,是为了让我们学到课本之外学不到的东西,扩充我们对其他知识的补充,而读书,也是有技巧的,在此刻的书店里,琳琅满目,让你看的眼花缭乱。各种各样的书,各式各样,让你不明白到底去看那一种书了,其实也不难,你去选取图书时,先明白,你想读那一类的书,如历史,文学,童话……多看几本这种类型的书,觉得哪本书的资料更好,字体更适宜,就去选取哪本。当然了,这只是我的个人观点。
下方,我们要关注另一个在读书时要意注的问题,那就是,保护好自我的眼睛。为什么在学校,往往都是学习好的戴眼镜,学习不好的反而不带了呢,不是因为学习不好的就不看书了,因为他们的看书时间短。那有人就该说了,“虽然我近视了,但我的知识量比他多,还是我好。”但往往这种人反而是错的,知识量不够,能够慢慢补充,毕竟时间还很长。但眼睛近视了,那但是永久也挽救不回了呀。而且如果你的眼睛不好,你的一些理想就会灰飞烟灭。在看书时,在注意时间的把握,这本书就算再吸引你,你也要把握时间,虽然多多看书有好处,但没有个度也是不行的。还有就是看书时的姿势了,此刻大多数人,都喜欢躺在床上看书,(也包括我)但大家明白吗,躺在床上看书是很毁眼睛的。所以为了自我好,必须要把握好呀。
在读书中,我们肯定会为书中搞笑的情节而哈哈大笑,也会为了一些凄凉,悲惨的情节,而默默流泪。在读书时,我们的表情是千变万化的。随着社会的加速发展,人们对书的要求也是越来越高。而我对书却没有什么要求,只要适合我的年龄段,只要我喜欢,还有就是只要书中的字体不要太小就行。书都是一样,不管是哪一类书,都能够为我们带来知识。文学类的,带领你走进诗歌、散文的王国。历史类,让你感受到历史的精彩。就连漫画,也可让我们充满幽默细胞……书,都是好的,记住吧,读书只会让自我更上一层楼,让我们一齐翱翔在书的海洋中!
读书高三议论文范文4书籍是人类进步的阶梯,一本好书,能够相伴终生,多读好书,是能够受益终生的。
书,有好有坏,有利有弊,老师主张同学们读好书,好读书,多读书。
读好书,是指要把一本书读好,读后要细细品味,多加思考,更要勤摘抄好句好段。这样才能把一本书读好。另外,老师还让我们“读好书”,是想让我们多读名著,名家名作,从中吸取其精髓,从而做到“学以致用”。暑假里,我读了作家杨红缨写的一本《杨红缨童话系列》,里面有3个故事,第一个故事《亲爱的笨笨猪》中的笨笨猪虽然笨,但是它诚实、善良,因此小动物们都愿意和它交朋友,愿意帮忙它;《流浪狗和流浪猫》中的流浪狗、流浪猫虽然在流浪,没有固定的住所,也没有稳定的三餐,但是它们没有被这种生活环境所吓倒,依然勇敢、乐观地生活着;第三个故事《没有尾巴的狼》中的狼被一个小孩陶陶所感化,由一只人见人怕,人人憎恨的狼变成了一只见义勇为、深受大家喜爱的狼。这些故事教育我从小就要做一个诚实、善良、勇敢、乐观的人,使我懂得了许多做人的道理。
读好书,能够明智,能够慧心;好读书,则是指:读书,是要有兴趣的,读一本好书,更是要有平和的心态,一个人读书时,如果静不下心来,那肯定读得不知其所然,这本书也就算白读了,但,喜欢书,爱读书的人就不一样了,只要一捧起书,便会完全沉尽其中,被作家的优美文笔所陶醉,被作家笔下的动人故事所感动,会为其悲,同其乐。兴趣是的老师,所以,想要读好书,更要爱读书。只有爱读书,才能真正从书中汲取精华和营养,从而使自我精神不断升华,文学素养不断提高。
书中自有黄金屋,书中自有颜如玉。在我还不识字时,妈妈就常常给我讲《格林童话》和《安徒生童话》中的小故事,从那时起我就被书中的故事所吸引,对书充满了向往;当我背起书包上学时,我就开始看自我喜欢的书了;随着年龄的增长,老师推荐我们看更多的好书。这让我能时常融入书中,体会书香的独到之处,更重要的是让书成为了我成长中不可缺少的必需品,让书香时刻点缀着我的生活,使我的生活变得丰富多彩,充满了浓浓的书香味!
我爱读书,更爱读好书!书会是我永远的朋友,它会伴随我度过快乐而幸福的一生!
读书高三议论文范文5书籍是人类数百年来无数聪明才智的载体,它记录着人类记几十年的知识教训。随着社会发展,社会上形形的书卷也日益繁多。当我应对如排山倒海般袭来的“书山书海”,不禁会想,我们为什么读书。
高尔基说过“书籍是人类进步的阶梯。”人为生存,为了考学,拼命的读书,有人甚至说书籍是生计的敲门砖,有了事业即可不要书。对于这一观点,我不敢苟同,正如培根所说,“读史使人明智,读诗使人灵秀,数学使人周密,物理使人深刻,伦理使人庄重,逻辑使人善辩。”在我看来,读书的目的并不在于为考试,而在读书,若只为考试而读,那变是读死书。我认为,读书的真正目的应是以下四点:
第一,读书让人获得知识。这是最浅显的作用。
我们从小到大所读的教科书目的也大于此。它让获得丰富的知识,获得渊博的学识,也让人们得到学位和工作,这些无足轻重的“副产品”。这一层的读书只是为了生活和学识。不可否认,知识的获得也是十分重要,毕竟“熟读唐诗三百首,不会作诗也会诌”吗?
第二,读书让人提高修养。
阅读一本好书,正如同一位知识渊博的学者谈话,“他”的语言中无不闪烁智慧的火花,无不传答着高尚的修养,从一本书中学到的修养,提高的品格,远比在生活磨砺中体会的深刻,体会的彻底。正如林语堂所说的如果读者获得书中的“味”,他便会在谈吐中把这种风味表现出来,如果他的谈吐中有了风味,他在写作中免不了会表现出风味来。着此间浅移默化的“味”,不正是在读书中体味的素养吗?
第三,读书让人开阔视野。
人生活的范围有限,限制于空间与时间的连锁中,当他只能同身边的交谈,他的认识是肤浅的,他的学识是简陋的。但当他打开一本书,时间,空间便再不能限制于他,他能够坐在家中看到世界各地,品味古今中外,他能够体会古战场上“马作的卢飞快,弓如霹雳弦惊”的宏大,能够体会大草原上“风吹草地牛羊”的生机;能够体会黄昏下“枯藤老树昏鸦,小桥流水人家”的忧;能够体会“白日放歌需纵酒,青春作伴好还乡”的欢喜。在书中人能够翱翔于智慧的天空,他的视野也不会只存在于一省,一市,一县,一国而是整个宇宙整个空间。着也许读书所换来的乐趣吧。
第四,读书让人明白事理。
韩愈曾说“人非生而知之者,孰能无或?”我想的疑虑也莫过于不明事理吧,读书里的名人,也许刚好能够找到答案,看世界名人的作人处事,从中能够学到许多方法,对于明白事理,应是十分重要的吧。
你听到了新年到来的脚步声吗?匆匆的!自信的!!激情的!!!
每逢辞旧迎新之际,人们总会回顾光荣,驰骋梦想。
2009年,是我们有着沉甸甸的收获的一年。
