On this day, the Prime Minister's Office informed me to go to Zhongnanhai Government Council. I walked into the prime minister's office. It is a tall palace-style house, with extremely simple interior furnishings, a small desk, two small swivel chairs and a desk lamp, that's all. When the Prime Minister saw me, he pointed to a pile of papers a foot high on the table and said, "I want to approve these papers tonight. I put the manuscript you sent at the end. Go to the duty room next door and sleep. I'll call you then. "
I go to the duty room to sleep. I don't know when, but the comrades in the duty room woke me up. He said to me, "The Prime Minister wants you to go."
I immediately got up, rubbed my sleepy eyes and walked into the Prime Minister's office. The Prime Minister asked me to sit opposite his desk and let me accompany him to read my report card. Actually, he wants to consult me. He read sentence by sentence, and after reading one sentence, he drew a small circle at the back with his pen. He doesn't just browse, but thinks while watching. Sometimes he would stop to think, and sometimes he would ask me a word or two. The night was quiet, and it was a long time before the Prime Minister finished the trial. Give me the manuscript.
At this time, the comrades in the duty room sent two cups of hot green tea and a small dish of peanuts and put them on the desk. The Prime Minister invited me to have tea and peanuts with him. There are not many peanuts, so you can count them clearly. It seems that you didn't gain weight because of one more person. After drinking tea for a while, I heard a rooster crow. The Prime Minister stood up and said to me, "I want to have a rest. I took a nap yesterday afternoon and took part in activities in the afternoon. You also go back to sleep. "
I stood up, too, and didn't notice that the upper part of the little swivel chair was crooked. The Prime Minister came to straighten the swivel chair and entered the back.
On the way back, I kept thinking and said to myself, "This is the new prime minister of our new China. I saw him working all night. How hard he works and how simple he is! "
I want to speak loudly to the whole world, as if the whole world could hear my voice: "Look, this is the Prime Minister of our people in China. I saw him working all night. He works like this every night. Have you ever seen such a prime minister? "

He is a poet who made great achievements in the great era and great changes in the middle of the 20th century.
When I was young, I liked China's ancient poems and novels very much. 65438-0929 went to Shanghai to study for the preparatory course of China College and read many new poems. 1931-1935 studied in the philosophy department of Peking University.
During my college years, I published poems and essays in magazines such as Modern. 1936 published Bian and Li Guangtian's poetry anthology Hanyuan Collection, 1937 published prose anthology Hua and won the literary gold medal in Ta Kung Pao.

So more wandering in homesickness, longing and dreams, leaving only loneliness and melancholy.

He is good at combining the characteristics of poetry, writing rich and touching words, borrowing novel metaphors and allusions, and rendering magical colors and patterns, which makes his prose unique.
It was in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, especially after Yan 'an, that the change of ideological and artistic style was really obvious. At this time, he gradually left his dream and faced reality, and his poetic style tended to be simple and clear.

[Edit this paragraph] Textbook Interpretation
1. Short text.
A Night's Work is an excerpt from the writer He Qifang's Memories of Comrade Zhou Enlai. In the article, the author first briefly explained the reasons why he was able to witness the work of Premier Zhou, then emphatically described what he saw and heard when he accompanied Premier Zhou in reviewing the manuscript, and finally expressed his true feelings. The whole article has the following characteristics: (1) Although the article is short, its content is concrete and substantial. Through careful observation, the author captured the fragments of Premier Zhou's all-night work, reflecting Premier Zhou's work style and spiritual quality throughout his life. The selection of materials has the characteristics of seeing the big from the small and taking the area from the point. (2) The article is unpretentious. Everything written is what the author saw with his own eyes, and the narrative process is unadorned, but between the lines is full of love and admiration for the Prime Minister, and the feelings are very strong. (3) The pen and ink of the article are concentrated and the center is prominent. The author tries to compress all the details that have nothing to do with the center, so as to be detailed and brief.
The main purpose of writing this text is to make students influenced by Premier Zhou's great personality. The second is to guide students to understand the expression of the great spirit of the characters through the small things in life and using plain language.
The main point of the text is to accompany Premier Zhou to review the manuscript. This part shows Premier Zhou's noble qualities from two aspects: hard work and simple living.
The difficulty of the text is mainly in the last two paragraphs. These two paragraphs are natural, and it is difficult to sort out the context of the author's emotional development and feel the author's strong feelings.
2. Text analysis.
Understanding of (1) sentence.
I walked into the prime minister's office. It is a tall palace-style house, with extremely simple interior furnishings, a small desk, two small swivel chairs and a desk lamp, that's all.
The Prime Minister's Office in this country has only a few pieces of essential office equipment, which is really "extremely simple", in sharp contrast to the "tall palace-style residence". "That's all" means "that's all", which means that the equipment is extremely simple for these things. This sentence shows that Premier Zhou's life is extremely simple.
(2) The Prime Minister asked me to sit opposite his desk and let me accompany him to read the transcripts I compiled, in fact, for consultation. He read sentence by sentence, and after reading one sentence, he drew a small circle at the back with his pen. He doesn't just browse, but thinks while watching. Sometimes he would stop to think, and sometimes he would ask me a word or two.
First of all, by reading the sentences carefully, we will find that the author's description is objective and true, without exaggeration. Why do you say that the Prime Minister is reviewing sentence by sentence? Because the prime minister drew a small circle after reading a sentence, and so on. Where can I see that the Prime Minister is thinking while watching? Because the Prime Minister sometimes stops to think about it and sometimes asks me a word or two. The seriousness and meticulous degree of the Prime Minister's review of documents is surprising. Secondly, by contacting the context and searching for information, we can further know that the document reviewed by the Prime Minister is a report written by himself, with roughly more than 400 sentences. When reviewing his own report, the Prime Minister read it sentence by sentence, thought it over and over again, and humbly asked for other people's opinions, so that it took quite a long time to review this document. The seriousness and meticulous degree of the Prime Minister's review of documents can be said to be shocking. From this, we can see a meticulous and easy-to-deal prime minister. This can guide students to think further. Why did the Prime Minister examine a document so seriously, meticulously and meticulously?
There are not many peanuts, so you can count them clearly. It seems that I didn't gain weight because of one more person.
This is Premier Zhou's all-night hunger food: a cup of green tea and a small dish of peanuts, which is really simple to the extreme. Premier Zhou's work task is so heavy, but his diet is so simple, which forms a sharp contrast. Hard work, but low living standards, Premier Zhou's noble character has been embodied in the detail of eating supper.
It can be inferred from the "two cups" of green tea above that peanuts should also belong to two people. Since it belongs to two people, it is of course necessary to increase it on the basis of one person. But the amount of peanuts for two people is still so small that the author doubts whether it has increased, so he adds the word "as if" to the sentence.
I often think so in the days to come. I want to speak loudly to the whole world, as if the whole world could hear my voice: "Look, this is the Prime Minister of our people in China. I saw him working all night. He works like this every night. Have you ever seen such a prime minister? "
As I witnessed Premier Zhou's work all night, I personally saw that Premier Zhou's work was so hard and his life was so simple. The author is deeply moved and excited, and has a thousand words to tell people. In the previous paragraph, the author first thought of where there is a premier like Premier Zhou in China. So he couldn't help exclaiming, "This is the Prime Minister of our new China". In this passage, the author's thought changed from vertical contrast to horizontal contrast, so he shouted to the world: "You see, this is our China Prime Minister. I saw him working all night. He works like this every night. Have you ever seen such a prime minister? " Here, on the one hand, it expresses the author's excitement and pride in having the opportunity to see Premier Zhou's work overnight; On the other hand, the author thinks of his work every night from Premier Zhou's all-night work, so the author shouts confidently and proudly, "Have you ever seen such a premier?"
(2) Understanding of words.
Browsing: Take a cursory look, not carefully. It can be understood in connection with the statement that he is not browsing it, but thinking while watching it.
Consultation: Understand the situation and ask for advice. "Ready for consultation" is a phrase meaning "The author He Qifang is ready for consultation by Premier Zhou".
[Edit this paragraph] Writing characteristics
1. This paper uses contrast to contrast the noble qualities of characters in writing. For example, "tall buildings" and the simplicity of indoor furnishings.
2. The material selection embodies the characteristics of "seeing the big from the small". For example, Premier Zhou's supper, Premier Zhou's small swivel chair and Premier's indoor furnishings, which seem to have little to do with "one-night work", are typical materials that can best show Premier Zhou's selfless work, seemingly small but convincing.
3. The language of the article is simple and there are no flowery words.
[Edit this paragraph] Teaching case
Teaching design of one-night work
First, read the text by yourself, understand the main idea and learn new words.
First, let the students read through the text and get a general understanding of the content. Then, let the students read the text again (more than once), and think about the following questions while reading: "From what aspects does the text describe Premier Zhou's all-night work?" Find out the relevant statements and draw them. "Students can also read new words and understand them in combination with the text.
Second, grasp the key words and explore the key content and language expression of the text.
1. Discussion: Which sentences in the text describe Premier Zhou's "hard work"? Which sentences describe the simplicity of life? Which words are used particularly well, highlighting Premier Zhou's "hard work" and "simplicity"? Ask the students to find the sentences first, and then the words. The words found by students may be: one foot high, sentence by sentence, quite long, extremely simple, one, two, a lamp, that's all, a small disk, and the number of stars is clear. After finding out, let the students talk about the benefits of using these words.
2. In the process of students' discussion, the teacher can induce by camera. For example, students talk about the good use of "minimalism" in "Minimalism of Interior Furnishings", which shows that the furnishings of Premier Zhou's office can't be simpler. Teachers can ask: Can you change "minimalism" into "equivalent", "extraordinary" and "extraordinary"? Let the students realize the accuracy and appropriateness of the words used in the text.
Third, practice reading, reciting, speaking and writing.
1.
Pay attention to the guidance of reading key sentences and keywords. For example, reading "This is Premier People's Republic of China (PRC)" and "Have you ever seen such a prime minister?" You should be full of pride. In the previous sentence, read the country name slowly and forcefully; The last sentence should emphasize "like this" and read the rhetorical tone.
It is necessary to arrange enough time to guide students to correctly handle the stress, pause, intonation and speed of reading through self-reading, deskmate reading, group reading in turn, synchronous reading and teacher-student cooperation. For the last two paragraphs of the text, one student can read aloud, and the whole class can read quietly; When reading the author's inner monologue, many students can be arranged to read it over and over again, creating a deep and repeated admiration atmosphere, as if people all over China and even the world are echoing the author from a distance, so that students are influenced by emotions and thoughts.
2. Recite the fragments.
First, guide students to distinguish the focus of the last two paragraphs. The former focuses on what the author says to himself, while the latter focuses on what the author wants to say to the world. Then help students sort out the expression order of these two paragraphs, and finally guide students to extract the guide words:
To myself: New China, overnight, hard work and plain living.
To the whole world: China people and country, one night, every night, do you see it?
After this instruction, let the students read it repeatedly and then recite it.

The Last Moment of Zhou Enlai's Life (Excerpt)
On June 1975, Premier Zhou Enlai was admitted to the hospital. Premier Zhou has been working since he was admitted to the hospital. Every day, the secretary selects documents and gives them to Sister Deng to take to the hospital. At the beginning, Premier Zhou personally reviewed documents, read references and read newspapers. Later, when her illness developed, Sister Deng gradually read the documents. Because the Prime Minister is usually very busy and can't catch up with the time, he has no habit of listening to the radio. After admission, the guards and nurses read newspapers to the Prime Minister in turn, and they should read all the news, so they should not be careless at all.
Premier Zhou is still working hard in his hospital bed. Even before you go to the operating table, you must read the documents. In the days of hospitalization, not only did I not change, but I accelerated my work pace. It has repeatedly asked the medical staff to unify the treatment with his work, adapt to the treatment and cooperate with the work, so that the work will not be affected and interfered. He often works continuously for more than ten hours. Premier Zhou's indifference to personal life and high responsibility for his work are too numerous to mention.

Reaction to a book or an article
This text tells that the author witnessed Premier Zhou's all-night work while accompanying him to review the manuscript, praised Premier Zhou's tireless work spirit and simple life style, and expressed his thoughts and feelings of reverence and love for Premier Zhou.
The text first explains the reasons for accompanying Premier Zhou to review the manuscript, then focuses on what he saw and heard when accompanying Premier Zhou to review the manuscript, and finally the author's feelings.
The main purpose of writing this text is to make students influenced by Premier Zhou's great personality. The second is to guide students to understand the expression of the great spirit of the characters through the small things in life and using plain language.
The main point of the text is to accompany Premier Zhou to review the manuscript. This part shows Premier Zhou's noble qualities from two aspects: hard work and simple living.
The difficulty of the text is mainly in the last two paragraphs.
The natural difficulty of these two paragraphs lies in how to sort out the context of the author's emotional development, so as to feel the author's strong feelings.
As I witnessed Premier Zhou's work all night, I personally saw that Premier Zhou's work was so hard and his life was so simple. The author was deeply moved and excited. He wanted to talk to people in a thousand words, but he couldn't find anyone to talk to on the road, so he had to talk to himself. "I keep thinking and telling myself" is the true reflection of that uncontrollable passion. When you are excited, you must have a lot of ideas. The author's first thought is where there is a premier like Premier Zhou in China. So he couldn't help exclaiming, "This is the Prime Minister of our new China".
The author's thoughts turned from vertical to horizontal, so he shouted to the whole world: "Look, this is our China Prime Minister. I saw him working all night. He works like this every night. Have you ever seen such a prime minister? " Here, on the one hand, it expresses the author's excitement and pride in having the opportunity to see Premier Zhou's work overnight; On the other hand, the author thinks of his work every night from Premier Zhou's all-night work, so the author shouts confidently and proudly, "Have you ever seen such a premier?"
Reflection on a Night's Work: Today, I read the article "A Night's Work" with excitement, and I was very moved after reading it. My beloved Premier Zhou worked hard day and night, worked hard for the Chinese nation and lived a simple life, which left a deep impression on me.
He checks sentence by sentence, then draws a small circle after reading one sentence ... sometimes he stops to think, and sometimes he asks me a few words.
How serious and meticulous the Prime Minister is about his work! I was deeply moved by his dedication to personally reading every document and carefully examining it.
There is also a paragraph where a comrade in the duty room sends a snack to the Prime Minister, but there are only two cups of hot green tea and a small dish of peanuts. Besides, there are not many peanuts, so you can count them. ...
This description is very touching. What a simple prime minister! After a hard night, I only ate a small dish of peanuts and drank a small cup of green tea. How does the prime minister compare with those who abuse their power and spend public money on eating, drinking and having fun?
The prime minister is a great man and a mortal. He is recognized as a great man by the people, because he usually demands himself with the demands of mortals. He thinks about his country, but never thinks about himself.
I am a pupil. After reading this article, I understand: I will work for the people in the future, follow Premier Zhou's example, study hard from now on, cherish time, and never "be the boss and apprentice".
