Mark Twain once said: "There were two strange people in the19th century, one was Napoleon and the other was Helen Keller." I recently read a book about Helen-If you give me three days of light. After reading this book, my heart was deeply shocked by Helen's spirit!
Helen said in the book: "Knowledge gives people love, light and wisdom. It should be said that knowledge is happiness, because with knowledge, we will feel the pulse of human activities in history, otherwise we will not understand the music of human life! " . Indeed, the power of knowledge is infinite, and it is knowledge that makes Helen create these miracles on earth!
Helen is unlucky, but she is lucky. It is because of her knowledge that she is so lucky. After she lost sight and hearing 19 months, she lost communication and contact with the world. This young life doesn't know how to dispel the isolation. She was eccentric and rude until her Sullivan teacher came into her life and taught her to read, which opened her eyes and made her communicate with others. As soon as lonely Helen came into contact with knowledge, she realized that only knowledge could pave a road to light. When Helen realized the first word she knew, she began to have a strong desire for knowledge and the world, and began to read and read hungrily, drawing knowledge from life itself like a sponge. Her thirst for knowledge enabled her to learn many languages, such as German, Latin and French. In the monotony and boredom that ordinary people can't imagine, I read many literary and philosophical masterpieces and absorbed the ideological essence of those great men and wise men. She compared learning to climbing a strange mountain and a dangerous peak, falling down and getting up again. Every time she makes a little progress, she is encouraged to see the wider world gradually until the bright clouds, the depths of the blue sky and the peak of hope! This knowledge, like a rainbow, lights up the lamp in Helen's heart, illuminates her inner world and builds a bridge between Helen and the world!
In the book, Helen describes the natural scenery with delicate brushwork, which makes it hard to believe that it was written by a blind and deaf person; She went horseback riding, boating, swimming, sledding and even boating alone on a moonlit night to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the lotus pond under the moon. She visited museums, "listened" to concerts and even "enjoyed" operas ... I believe she must feel the world with her heart and enjoy life with her heart. She lives a happier, fuller and more meaningful life than us normal people! It is knowledge that gives her the courage to live, and it is knowledge that gives her the strength to accept the challenges of life, so that she can face difficulties with amazing perseverance and finally find the light of life in the dark. It is knowledge that gives her a new belief: although the realistic environment is terrible, human beings should hold hope and continue to struggle. What is the meaning and value of life? Man's life is short. We never seem to think or dare to imagine the future world. We live and work lazily every day. When we are in trouble, we complain about the injustice of heaven. In this way, year after year, day after day, time flies like water, and the past days will not reappear. When we look back, is it worth nostalgia? Is it memorable? If each of us lights the lamp in our hearts with knowledge, I believe the world will be bright!
Helen explained the meaning of life with her hard and happy life. Her life is a miracle of mankind, and her autobiography makes me feel ashamed and alert.
In this world, why do only deaf people cherish the restored hearing? Only the blind will cherish the happiness of seeing the light of day? Let's cherish every day of our lives, enrich our lives and enjoy them! Helen said: "The purpose of my efforts to acquire knowledge is to make a little contribution to society."
How powerful knowledge is, it can turn a disabled person into a person who is beneficial to mankind and society. If each of us can, like Helen Keller, regard the thirst for knowledge as the pursuit of life in our lifetime, and lead a friendly, energetic and eager life with this pursuit, how much joy and happiness will our life add!
Helen's life is a life of living in darkness, but it brings light to mankind. She proved the courage of human beings to overcome life with actions, leaving the world an unforgettable song of life!
Outlaws of the Marsh is a very classic Chinese masterpiece, comparable to A Dream of Red Mansions, Romance of the Three Kingdoms and The Journey to the West, and known as the "Four Classical Novels of China". The Water Margin truly describes the whole process of peasant uprising, development and failure in the Song Dynasty, and exposes the darkness and decay of feudal society and the evil of the ruling class. It reveals the occurrence, development and evolution of peasant uprising in feudal society of China by excellent artistic description.
Heroes in the Water Margin embarked on the road of rebellion, each with its own reasons and circumstances, but many people are * * * at this point. For example, Ruan's three heroes rebelled because they could not live any longer, were dissatisfied with the government's exploitation, and actively participated in the action of seizing the "birth program", thus going to Liangshan. Jie Zhen and Jebel revolted because they were plundered and persecuted by landlords. As a result, there was a contradiction with the government, and as a result, it was forced to go up the mountain and become an outlaw. Song Wu was born in a poor city. He was repeatedly framed as an injustice, revenged for killing his brother, and finally rebelled and bravely attacked the ruling class. He woke up from the lesson of blood.
Among the characters in the 108th General of Water Margin, I was most impressed by Wu Yong, a wise man, and Lu, a lonely star and a monk. "Wu Yong, a wise man, made several suggestions: Wu Yong made suggestions for Chao Gai, defeated Yang Zhi, a blue-faced beast, with drugs and wine, and snatched hundreds of gold, silver and jewels that Beijing sent to Taishicai for his birthday; Song Jiang was caught reading anti-poetry in Xunyang Building, and was taken to the execution ground with Dai Zhong. When he was about to cut, Wu used a trick to rob the giving ceremony and save Song Jiang and Dai Zhong. Sung river hit Zhujiazhuang twice and failed; When attacking Zhujiazhuang for the third time, Wu conquered Zhujiazhuang with a series of stratagems. When Song Jiang was in trouble in Huazhou, Wu Yong made suggestions and borrowed Su Taiwei's golden bell cover to hang it, and rescued Shi Jin, a nine-striped dragon, and Lu, a flower monk. In his life, he built many towers and made many great achievements. He was recruited as the special envoy of Vu Thang's army. After Song Jiang and Li Kui jy were killed, Wu Yong hanged himself in front of Song Jiang's grave with Hua Rongdao and was buried with Song Jiang. Lu is a monk with a lone star in the sky. He is a real man and hero who is very straightforward, violent, but chivalrous and gentle, and kills the wicked in order to save the poor. He often behaves rudely and savagely in front of people, but he is unambiguous in front of them, waving a 62-catty mord to fight the enemy.
After reading this book, I learned about the ancient history of China, the rebellious spirit of heroes of the Water Margin and the corrupt side of feudal society. This is indeed a very interesting book.
Reflections on Water Margin
"The First Secretary of the Water Margin" tells the heroic story of 108 heroes headed by Song Jiang, from gathering righteous Liang Shanbo to courtship, to the defeat of Liao soldiers, and finally to exterminating the rebels, but being murdered by traitors. After reading the whole book, there are only two words left in my mind: loyalty and righteousness.
Loyalty means doing one's best to the motherland, relatives and friends around you. Song Jiang is still loyal to the motherland under various threats and inducements, which is loyalty; Lin Chong's wife humiliated Gao Qiu's son after Lin Chong was forced to rebel. She would rather die than surrender, and finally hanged herself. This is also loyalty. In today's society, I believe many people can achieve the word "loyalty", but few people can achieve the word "righteousness".
A word "righteousness" contains too much content. In the Water Margin, 108 heroes are brothers, who go through fire and water for their friends and do everything for a word "righteousness"; For the people, it is only a word "righteousness" to put one's life at risk. Although a word "righteousness" has only three strokes, it sometimes takes one's life to write it. In real life, almost anyone can give up his seat, but not everyone can save people from danger. Because it requires considerable courage, even the determination to exchange one life for another.
Righteousness can be interpreted as justice. A person with a strong sense of justice is a person with noble spirit. How many heroes have given their lives for righteousness through the ages? Aren't they afraid of death? They can risk their lives for justice and truth, because a strong sense of justice clearly tells them what not to do and what is worth fighting for with their lives. A person without a sense of justice will not understand this. Because his sense of justice has been swallowed up by numbness, his passion for struggle has been frozen, but his soul has been assimilated by some ugly things in society.
I still clearly remember that there is a black man among the heroes of the Water Margin. He is reckless and grumpy, and often conflicts with people because of trivial matters, and even leads to murders. But he can see the rough road and draw his sword to help those unscrupulous guys. In real life, although there is no such thrilling event, the word "righteousness" permeates our lives. Loyalty to friends is filial piety. Treating strangers or things with a fair eye is a sense of justice and a sense of justice in practice. We Chinese nation are a just nation. When Japan invaded China, many revolutionary martyrs with lofty ideals and integrity died indomitable with blood, which made today's thriving motherland. Dong Cunrui laid down his life to bomb the bunker, and Huang Jiguang blocked the enemy's machine gun with his chest. These are the continuation of China's humanity and the lingering glory in China's history.
One can not believe in God, but can not believe in "holiness". At present, the most important task for us teenagers is to build our motherland more prosperous. Therefore, this is also the foundation of our national justice. Let us believe in this "sacredness" and maintain this "sacredness" with our own hands.
Reflections on The Book of Insects
After reading Insects, I was fascinated by this book. It turns out that there are so many mysteries in the insect world. I know: how cicadas shed their shells in the morning; Dung beetles belongs to me how to roll a dung ball; How ants eat aphid secretions. It is also clear that "the son of a moth" is wrong. Bees catch caterpillars not as their own sons, but to arrange food for future generations.
The first time I read Insects, it somehow attracted me. This is a popular science book describing the birth, labor, hunting and death of insects. The text is plain, fresh and natural. Humorous narration makes people laugh ... humanized bugs appear, what a strange and interesting story! Fabres's Insect Story makes me feel like a dream. Those specific and detailed words make me feel the presence of magnifying glasses, humidity, stars and insect smells from time to time, as if I were there. The figures of those insects that I neglected for too long, and their arrogant chirping, suddenly gathered together, and I held my breath. Then, with them, I penetrated the darkness inside. It was Fabres who showed me that insects are strikingly similar to us on many issues, such as life and death, labor and plunder. Entomology is not a world created by writers, it is different from novels, they are the most basic facts! It is the loneliness and hardship of Fabres's life every day and every night. It is lonely, quiet and almost isolated from the world. I looked up. At this moment, I really want to look up and treat the mystery of insects like a starry sky. It made me enter a vivid insect world for the first time.
So, I continued to read Insects.
Then look down, Insect Story is an interesting story: "Mantis is a very fierce animal, but in its early life, it will also be sacrificed by the smallest ant." Spiders weave webs. "Even with tools like compasses and rulers, no designer can draw a more standard web page." Rich stories made me think. Watching, these bugs gradually became clear. I thought: If we protect the environment and don't pollute it, will these bugs still exist? Now the environment is deteriorating, will it happen again in the future? I carefully thought about the relationship between them, and this reading, Insect Story opened a brand-new door for me.
When I continued reading Insects, I saw Fabres observing the caterpillar's progress in detail. I saw him catching wasps regardless of the danger. I saw him boldly assuming, carefully experimenting, and repeatedly scrutinizing the experimental process and data, and gradually inferring the action time and effect of the high-nose bee venom needle, the predation process of fireflies, the methods of catching flies and bees to deal with their prey, and the long-distance contact of peacock moths ... An experiment failed, and he collected data and analyzed the reasons. Rigorous experimental methods, bold questioning spirit and diligent style. This time, I felt the "scientific spirit" and its profound connotation.
Fabres, an entomologist, cared for insects with human nature, and painstakingly wrote his masterpiece Insects, leaving a treasure house of essays full of knowledge, interest, beauty and thought. His writing is lively, his tone is relaxed and humorous, and he is full of interest. In the author's pen, the willow beetle looks like a miser, wearing a short dovetail dress that seems to be "short of cloth"; Little beetle "selfless dedication for future generations, heartbreaking for children"; The little sparrow bitten by a poisonous spider will also "eat happily, and even cry like a baby if we feed it slowly". What a lovely elf! No wonder Lu Xun regarded insects as a model of "talking about insect life".
I admire Fabres's spirit of exploring nature, which makes me feel that insects are closely related to the environment, and also makes me feel the author's originality and subtle observation. Entomology has broadened my horizons, made me look at the problem from a different angle, and made me understand the problem more deeply than before. I think The Insect Story is a good book worth reading all my life. I think anyone who reads Insect Tales carefully will know more.
Article 2:
The arrogant insect world
-thoughts on reading the story of insects
Entomology is an outstanding French entomologist and writer Fabres's masterpiece. It is also an immortal work, not only a literary masterpiece, but also a scientific encyclopedia.
The Insect Story introduces many insects in detail, including their instincts, habits, labor, marriage, reproduction and death.
Entomology is a very attractive work, because this scientific encyclopedia is also literary. Every word in the article reflects the author's feelings and the unique personality of insects. Liu Yang longan is like a miser, wearing a short tuxedo that seems to be "short of cloth"; Little beetle "selfless dedication for future generations, heartbreaking for children"; The little sparrow bitten by a spider will also "eat happily, and even cry like a baby if we feed it slowly." What a lovely elf! No wonder Lu Xun regarded insects as a model of "talking about insect life".
Fables has a keen interest in insects, so his entomology also makes me feel like an insect reading while watching. Every insect has the same feelings as human beings. For example, "the locusts who have panicked have completely forgotten the trick of' thirty-six plans to go is the best policy'."
When reading Insects, I can even imagine the picture of insects in action. In front of me, it is no longer boring words, but mysterious nature. Cicadas sing again, crickets manage housework again, spiders catch food again ... There are such interesting things in mysterious nature that my respect for nature arises spontaneously. It also has a cautious side.
Fabres is bound to encounter great difficulties in the process of re-exploring nature, but no matter how big the difficulties are, they have not stopped him from exploring. I admire Fabres's spirit of exploring nature, which makes me feel that insects are closely related to the environment, and also makes me feel the author's originality and subtle observation.
Entomology is not only full of reverence for life, but also contains some spirits. That spirit is seeking truth, that is, pursuing truth and exploring truth. This is Faber's spirit. Under the guidance of entomology, I will continue to explore the magical insect world. Reflections on reading childhood
Everyone has a childhood, and everyone's childhood is different, but are we all as poor as Gorky's childhood? No, we didn't. We are the only child in our family and the apple of our parents' eye. Gorky's childhood is not as happy as ours, nor is his family as happy as ours.
Gorky has no father since he was 7 years old, and lives with his mother and elderly grandmother. Other children have new clothes, but he doesn't. He only has a few patched clothes and a schoolbag. However, instead of blaming his mother, he studied harder and prepared to pay tribute to his hard-working mother.
Childhood this book records some stories of Gorky's childhood, which is a little bitter and a little human: I really admire Gorky's success in such a difficult environment.
Gorky liked mathematics very much when he was young. In a math class, the teacher gave the class a question. The title is: "1+2+3+4+...+ 100 =?" "This embarrassed many students, who were all in a hurry. Only Gorky worked it out, which is equal to 5050. From then on, the teacher will not look down on them because their family is poor, but think that he is very talented in mathematics.
We should learn from Gorky, and Confucius said it well: "Meet Si Qi."
★ Thoughts on reading childhood
I recently read Gorky's Childhood, which vividly depicts the tragic childhood of the protagonist Aletha. Alisha's parents died, and his grandfather was very grumpy. Only his grandmother loves him. Grandfather doesn't like him very much, and his two uncles hate him even more. He survived in such a bad environment. In fact, Aletha's prototype is Gorky himself, and Gorky used Aletha to describe his childhood. This made me deeply realize the ugly face of people at that time. Gorky's childhood is so miserable compared with ours now!
How happy we are, spoiled by our parents. Sitting in a spacious and bright classroom every day, listening to the teacher; There are big fish and meat waiting for you to taste when you go home; I will give you what you want; If someone bullies you, adults will not hesitate to give that person a hard lesson. What about Gorky's era? Gorky rarely has a quiet day, and almost every day someone hurts him, insults him and bullies him. I don't understand either. Why do those people do such a thing that harms others and does not benefit themselves? Are these meaningless things worth doing?
Therefore, we should cherish today's happy life. We should grasp the tail of childhood, study hard, and never know when we will be blessed. Such an excellent learning environment and such a wonderful childhood life, if we don't study hard, we will be too sorry for our parents.
Now, seeing that childhood is about to leave, we are greeted by energetic teenagers. Let's cherish the last moment of childhood. Careless, childhood will leave us, seize the last time of childhood, and leave our best impression on childhood!
★ Thoughts on reading childhood
This summer, I read Gorky's autobiographical novels. This summer, I read Gorky's autobiographical novel Childhood and was deeply impressed.
Maxim Gorky was born in a poor carpenter's family. Gorky suffered a lot during the brutal czar's rule: he lost his father when he was young, but was abused by his grandfather. The people around him are so selfish, greedy and full of hatred. ...
Gorky's childhood was so miserable. Compared with him, I am much happier.
I was born in a beautiful place surrounded by mountains and rivers. My parents take care of me in every possible way, my relatives are extremely kind to me, and my friends are naive and friendly to me, so that the happy notes always fall on my side. Playing in the bamboo forest, picking mushrooms in the mountains, catching crabs, chasing butterflies, smelling flowers and chasing grasshoppers in the stream, my childhood began like this.
Stumbling behind my cousin and picking wheat with a big basket, the big basket always hits my heel. Two pigtails are jumping up and down happily, and the white butterfly is jumping up and down happily. There is no cloud in Wan Li, the blue sky in Wan Li, and the breeze stirs my skirt. There are more than half of the ears of wheat in the basket. The good times of childhood were spent in happy labor.
Walking into the campus full of books, I became a student. The whole day begins with the sound of reading The teacher taught us knowledge enthusiastically and the students discussed with each other. We are like saplings, nourished by spring breeze and rain, absorbing more and better knowledge and thriving. In this sea of knowledge, I ended my happy childhood and began to mature.
I live in a socialist country full of humanitarianism, where there is no flogging, beating, hatred, greed, rudeness, endless atrocities and scandals. People here are kind, innocent and optimistic, so my childhood is full of happiness and happiness.
.
The Daughter of the Sea in Andersen's fairy tales tells a touching story between a mermaid and human beings. What moved me most was the scene between the prince and the little mermaid.
I think the little mermaid is a kind mermaid. Because when her six sisters used their beautiful hair, they got a sharp knife from the witch that could make the little mermaid reborn. As long as the little mermaid put a sharp knife into the prince's chest and let the prince's blood drop on her feet, then her feet will immediately become fish tails, and she can live freely in the sea for 500 years. If it were me, I would live up to my sisters' expectations and kill the prince. But she didn't do it. Because she knew that if she killed the prince, someone else would suffer as much as her, so she couldn't bear to do it, let alone do it. The little mermaid would rather sacrifice herself than the happiness of others. This shows that the little mermaid's heart is so pure. Kindness!
I don't know how many tears I shed for this story and for that kind and poor little mermaid. How difficult it is for a person to sacrifice his own happiness for the happiness of his lover! Well done! But we usually haggle over trifles in class, and even go to war. How shameful it is to shake your heart in front of the little mermaid!
Little mermaid, although you are so far away from me, I think you are so close to my heart, because your innocent heart has made me have an indissoluble bond with you.
