Later, I went to the first grade of primary school. The first thing the teacher taught us was Chinese Pinyin. The sounds "b, d, p, q, f, t" keep spinning in my mouth. Both "B" and "D" have two semicircles. I always mispronounce twins together, and I complain bitterly. After mastering the knowledge of pinyin skillfully, you can read the book of phonetic notation. But many words can be read without understanding its meaning. At this time, my father taught me another magic weapon: this magic weapon can not only teach me pronunciation and word formation, but also teach me to understand the meaning of words, that is, the dictionary. Thus, the dictionary, like a silent teacher, opened the way for me to read. On the way to literacy, I also made a lot of jokes.
I remember one day in the first grade of primary school, I was reading a story book called "stingy pig". When I read "stingy", I didn't know the meaning of the word, so I rushed over to ask my father who was watching TV, "Dad, what does this word mean?" Dad asked me if I could understand, and said happily, "This word means stingy." I jumped back to my room as if I had got something precious.
In the evening, my sister's family came to my house for dinner. Mother likes her sister very much, so she gave her the best chicken wings first, then divided them one by one, and finally it was my turn. I see that my chicken wings are only one third of my sister's, and there are bigger chicken wings in the bowl. I was very unhappy, so I stood up and shouted, "Mom is so neat (stingy)!" " Everyone froze and looked at me in surprise. Dad asked, "What do you mean by' flush with the wall'?" I am proud to say, "it means stingy!" " "My father suddenly realized, followed by a burst of laughter, which lasted for five minutes in my memory. Father finally said: "Little fool, this word is pronounced' stingy (Lin) stingy (se)# 39；; ! "Hear dad, the family also laughed. I blushed, bowed my head and ran into the room, took out the book that made me look stupid, and marked "stingy" with pinyin.
Later, in the process of understanding Chinese characters, I slowly found that Chinese characters are actually very interesting. You can guess the meaning of some words just by looking at the font. For example, "crooked" is composed of "not" and "positive", which means "incorrect". Another example is the word "no", which consists of "no" and "use", meaning "no need". That's right. It is interesting to know words.
As I get older, I know more and more words, and I can write more and more words. So, my father sent me to learn calligraphy. At first, I only learned to draw horizontally and vertically. After a month, I learned all the strokes. In order to practice these basic skills, I have invested a lot of time. Practice at the teacher's house, at home, during the day, at night ... no pains, no gains. The time I invested laid a good foundation for my calligraphy. I also slowly learned to appreciate famous calligraphy works. Yan Zhenqing's majestic regular script, Zhang Menglong's heroic inscription, graceful and elegant Cao Quanbei and Mi Fei's leisurely and happy running script are like beautiful scrolls. The words on the scroll are sometimes as light as a feather, sometimes as heavy as Mount Tai, sometimes as weak as a spring, and sometimes as agile as a dragon, which makes me intoxicated.
With the increase of literacy, my reading has also increased.
When I was a child, I loved listening to my father tell beautiful stories and reciting Tang poetry and Song poetry with him. I can't get tired of reading poems such as Singing Goose and Spring Dawn. Now, I like to sit quietly at the table reading and savor the charm of words. Every word, like a spirit full of aura, dances happily on the paper; Every sentence is like a spring of spirit, flowing out of books and soaking into my heart, enriching my thoughts and shaping my character.
I will continue to study and grow in the fragrance of calligraphy and ink painting in the future. I believe the scenery on the road will be beautiful!
