Where does the sea sleep?

Sleeping in the Sea is a poem published by Jiangsu Education Publishing House in the first volume of primary school Chinese. It has eight lines, and depicts a quiet sea view at night in a kind and natural language full of children's breath and imagination. After reading the whole poem, we can easily find that the main image in the poem is the sea. Therefore, the image of the sea is undoubtedly the key to interpretation. I. Interpretation of the image of the sea (I. Common interpretation of the image of the sea There are several common interpretations of the sea. 1. A symbol of surreal pursuit. Since the first mention of the sea in The Book of Songs Xiaoya Mianshui, the vastness and mystery of the sea set off the limitations of man and the material world and became a symbol of expressing man's surreal pursuit. 2. Freedom and beauty incarnate. 1824, Pushkin wrote a lyric poem to the sea with the mentality of "freedom is bound, but freedom cannot be pursued", expressing his desire and pursuit of freedom. 3. The combination of contradiction and conflict. Sunrise at Sea has aroused the heartfelt admiration of many heroes. The sunset at sea evokes the tender nostalgia of many poets. Shu Ting's The Sea has changed from a simple symbol of beauty to a complex contradiction. 4. The dual meaning of mother and hometown. "The sea is like my mother and the lake is like my friend" "The sea, the sea, is where I grew up; The sea, the sea, is like a mother ",which shows that in children's literature, the image of the sea mostly represents the mother and hometown. (II) Interpretation of the Sea Image After exploring several common interpretations of the sea image, we can easily find that the image of the sea symbolizes the image of the mother in the poem Sleeping in the Sea, which coincides with the meanings of the words "her", "hug" and "back" in the text. This image is mostly interpreted by teachers in daily teaching, and it is also clearly defined in teaching reference. So many teachers often ask in class, "Why does the author use her next to the word" woman "when addressing the sea?" Most students can understand the personification in the poem-"The author compares the sea to her mother, and her mother is a woman, so she uses the word next to a woman". After reading the image of the sea as a mother, the images of the moon, stars, wind and waves can be interpreted as children of the sea. Second, the picture perception of the image of the sea This poem "Sleeping in the Sea" is a poem in Mr. Liu Ruomin's "Song of the Sea" and the other is "Wind on the Sea". The two poems are static and dynamic, which complement each other. 1. Describe the night view of the sea. Sleeping in the Sea depicts such a picture for us: the sea at night, without the noise of the day, began to sleep quietly. In the dim light, I only saw the moon and stars reflected on the calm water. Everything is so quiet, and there is a gentle and regular tidal sound in my ear, gentle and soothing. In teaching, teachers can directly guide students to associate and imagine the picture represented by this short passage, and can start teaching by reading aloud while thinking about the picture, reading poems and pictures, and closing their eyes to imagine, so as to take children to experience the beauty of the picture and transform the text image into the picture image. 2. Compare the charts during the day. At the same time, teachers should make good use of the characteristics of group poems and introduce Liu Ruomin's other poem "The Wind on the Sea" and another work "The Waves" in due course.
