A Brief Introduction to the Author of Mother's Feather

Zhang Xiaofeng is a famous essayist in Taiwan Province Province, China. He graduated from Soochow University in Taiwan Province Province, where he taught at Hong Kong Baptist College and is now a professor at Yangming Medical College in Taiwan Province Province. 20 12 was elected as the candidate of the People First Party for the 8th Taiwan Province Provincial Legislator.

Zhang Xiaofeng, pen names Xiaofeng, Sankoh, Ke E, etc. , a famous essayist of the third generation in Taiwan Province Province, is 73 years old (20 14).

194 1 was born in Jinhua, Zhejiang, and Tongshan, Jiangsu. When she was 8 years old, she went to Taiwan Province Province, China with her mother. She studied in Yi Bei Girls' School and Pingtung Girls' School, and finally graduated from Soochow University. She teaches at Suzhou University and Hong Kong Baptist College. At the age of 36, he was rated as one of the "Top Ten Contemporary Prose Writers in China" by the critics in Taiwan Province Province. Yangming University came to teach in this school after its establishment, and served as a professor in the general education center of this school until his retirement in 2006.

Zhang Xiaofeng wrote many different genres, such as prose, new poetry, novel, drama and prose, among which prose is the most famous. Her famous work "The End of the Carpet" expresses the joy before marriage, and her feelings are delicate and touching, but her achievements are not limited to this. Her later works are constantly developing and breaking through in content and skills, from describing trivial matters of life to expressing feelings about home and country and the social world, integrating into philosophy and constantly exploring. His main works include White Handkerchief, Red Handkerchief, Nostalgia in Spring, The End of Carpet, Homesickness and so on.

Zhang Xiaofeng is the winner of Zhongshan Literature Award, National Literature Award, Wu Sanlian Literature Award, China Times Literature Award and United Daily News Literature Award, and has won ten outstanding young women. Many works have been selected into middle school textbooks in Chinese mainland and Taiwan Province provinces.

Zhang Xiaofeng believed deeply in religion and loved creation. There are thirty or forty kinds of novels, essays and plays, which are reprinted in one edition and translated into various languages. In the mid-1960s, his prose became famous, and his works were listed in the Selected Works of the Top Ten Prose Writers in Taiwan Province Province from 65438 to 0977.

The editor said, "Her works are China's, homesick, modern and extremely human."

Yu Guangzhong once called his article "combining rigidity with softness" and was listed as "the third generation famous essayist".

Some people call it "the pen is like the heat of the sun, the frost and snow are innocent, the writing is like the fragrance of cold plum, and the words are like knocking on the ice."

The article "Street Trees" in Selected Works of Zhang Xiaofeng was selected in the seventh class of Chinese in Grade 7 of People's Education Publishing House. Zhang Xiaofeng's prose artistic creation can be roughly divided into three consecutive paragraphs.

The first paragraph is marked by her first collection of essays, The End of the Carpet, published in 1966. She looks at the world with the eyes of a clever and naive girl, and the world is a clear and spotless gurgling stream.

The second paragraph, such as a stream rushing in a lake full of storms, mixed love and hate, and hollowed out by turbid waves, is adapted from the collection of essays "Nostalgia Stone".

(1977), after walking down the red carpet (1979) and you haven't loved (198 1) are signs, which can be regarded as the transition and completion of the first paragraph to the second paragraph. The second period is relatively long. Rebirth Edge (1982) can also be regarded as an extension of this period, from here I am (1984), from your beautiful watershed (1988) and emerald thinking (1990). Let's make a hypothesis here. If Zhang Xiaofeng's prose creation stops at the second paragraph, although she is still one of the outstanding female writers in the history of modern prose in China, and breaks through the narrow and cramped world of ordinary female writers, she is not a prose master with great original brilliance after all.

198 1 year, when her fourth collection of essays "You have never loved" was published, Mr. Yu Guangzhong prefaced the book and called her a "dripping pen" with a storm on her wrist.

The originality of Zhang Xiaofeng's prose art lies in the second paragraph, especially in the third paragraph of Since I'm Here. Only this third paragraph announces the birth and completion of a prose master, whose purpose is the generation of life and creativity and the poetic interpretation of ontology.

The poetic interpretation of life and ontology is the greatest contribution of this woman writer to the history of modern prose in China. She embarked on this poetic way to explain the ontology of life and existence, never fully conscious, never ending. Involving novels, essays, plays, etc.

novel

Although Zhang Xiaofeng has few novels, he has achieved good results. There are many novels published, such as wailing wall and Xiaofeng's Novel, among which White Handkerchief, Red Handkerchief, Mei Zhu Lan Ju and Panduna are more popular.

Among them, Panduna was published in China Times 1968, which is the first Chinese science fiction novel recognized by the science fiction circle in Taiwan Province Province. Although it is a pioneering work, it has not been deeply explored in the characteristics of science fiction itself, but it is a rare novel in contemporary Taiwan Province literature because of its beautiful writing and sadness.

The temperature of this cup of coffee is just right. Through food and intermarriage, love is drawn and it is ying ying for you.

Zhang Xiaofeng s Classic View of Love;

To love someone is to leave him an apple in the refrigerator until he comes back.

To love someone is to keep pouring hot water into his cup on a cold night.

To love someone is to put all the leftovers on the table together, listen to the music he washes the dishes in the sink-and then secretly wash the places he didn't clean afterwards.

If you love someone, you have the right to say, "Don't wear that dress, it looks terrible." Wear this one. It's my new one for you. "

To love someone is to urge him to go to work seriously, but he can't help hiding behind him and trying to pound some small eggs.

Loving someone is when you suddenly don't know what to say when you dial the phone, only to know that you just want to listen to that familiar voice. What you really want to dial is just a string in your heart.

To love someone is to hide his letter in his purse, take it out and read it several times a day, cry several times and fantasize several times.

To love someone is to think of a thousand bad possibilities when he comes back late, to experience various disasters in imagination, and to swear to punish him when he comes back, but to forget everything once we meet.

To love someone is to swear in public: "Bah! Who is coughing! " But you said anxiously, "Alas, alas, he just has a bad memory. I should have bought a bottle of Chuanbei Pipa Cream and put it in his backpack! " "

To love someone is to put a beautiful relationship in the most secret and safest tree hole for a quarter of an hour like a squirrel hiding nuts in winter, and then tell the world the proud news in the next quarter of an hour.

To love a person is to see that he is just a child-a good boy or a bad boy-beyond his title, status, education, experience, good deeds and evil deeds, so to hurt him.

Therefore, to love someone is to like to listen to the stories of his childhood, how many times he lived, how naughty and annoying he was, how good he was at playing marbles or "Shui Piao drift", and to love someone is to remember many past events for him.

If you love someone, you can't help but hope that you are more beautiful, that you will be remembered, that your appearance and body will be seen by the other party in the heyday, and that you will never forget each other. Even in the winter when flowers bloom and trees fade, there is a person as heavy as a primary school student in history books to witness your glory.

Loving someone will always take pains to ask or answer some silly questions, such as: "If I am old, do you still love me?" "love." "I lost all my teeth?" "I kiss your gums!"

If you love someone, you can't help falling in love with that white-haired song:

Honey, I'm old.

White as frost, wrapped in white.

Only you will always be my lover.

Always beautiful and gentle ...

Loving a person is often a series of strange contradictions. You will treat him as your father, but pity him as your son. Respect him as a brother and spoil him as a brother; Want to learn from him, but want to teach him to capture him as an apprentice; Treat him as a friend, treat him as an enemy; I want to be his queen, his only mistress, but I am willing to be his little maid.

Loving someone can make people tacky. You have been thinking: which is better for dinner, beef tongue or pig tongue? Should I buy Chinese cabbage or Chinese cabbage for vegetables? Should I buy a house with three plows or six plows? Finally, in this secular world, you know all beings. You have participated in the trivial joys and sorrows of ordinary women since ancient times, and then you find that there are cases in this world that transcend elegance and vulgarity, just like sunshine surpasses the palette.

I like to hear him talk about how he secretly liked you and stared at you from a distance. To love someone is to take away his kiss when leaving, just like a painting, with Athena Chu's appreciation.

To love someone is to settle down, combine your little gambling book with him and gamble on the big wheel of life.

To love someone is to let that person's name be the last music in your mouth when you die.

If you love someone, you will have the same desire and occupation. I want to know about his friends, his career and his dreams. I hope * * * has a dining table, is willing to share a pair of chopsticks, likes to have a cup of tea in turn, wear a dress together, go to a fate with my pillow and sleep in a grave together. abstract

The original text of Street Trees

roadside tree

We are a row of trees, standing in the dust of the city.

Many friends say we shouldn't stand here. In fact, we know this better than anyone. Our home is on the mountain, in the dark virgin forest. And we actually stand here, standing on the roadside of these two lanes, which is undoubtedly a kind of degeneration. Our companions are all sucking dew and playing with cool clouds. What about us? Our only decoration, as you can see, is a puff of smoke.

Yes, our fate has been arranged. In this city full of cars and chimneys, our existence is just a sad ornament. But you can save your sympathy, because this fate is actually our own choice, otherwise we don't have to grow green leaves frequently in spring and give shade in summer. The sacred cause is always painful, but only this kind of pain can give us depth.

As night falls, the whole city is full of red lights and green wine. And we are in silence, we are in the dark, we are in the loneliness that is not understood. However, we struggled and our gums ached until the flag of the morning glow, Ran Ran, rose and we stood in line to pay tribute. In any case, there must be someone in our city to meet the sunshine! If no one else greets us, we will be responsible for welcoming the light.

At this time, perhaps an early child came over and greedily breathed the fresh air. This is our proudest moment. Yes, maybe everyone has long been accustomed to filth, but we still stubbornly create a sense of freshness that is not cherished.

Standing in the dust of the city, we are a sad and happy tree.

(People's Education Edition, the first volume of the seventh grade)

reading comprehension

1. Why do street trees think their profession is sacred?

A: Street trees realize that the cause that society needs and people need is a sacred cause. Residents need fresh air, pedestrians need shade, the city needs sunshine, and street trees are willing to stand in the dust of the city and engage in sacred undertakings.

2. What sufferings have street trees engaged in the "sacred cause" suffered? Since the pain, why "choose" this fate?

Answer: Grasp the understanding of key words that describe pain, such as "shaking smoke", "suffering at night", "sadness" and "depravity". Compared with their companions in the virgin forest, they abandoned superior living conditions and were always shrouded in smoke and dust. Compared with people who enjoy nightlife in the city, they are lonely, lonely and miserable. They are always worried about the pollution in the city. In short, they are painful. However, they realize that the sacred cause is always painful, they are willing to sacrifice themselves and are proud and happy for their dedication. This is the beautiful heart and spirit of selfless devotees.

3. How to understand "only this kind of pain can give us depth"? Why do you say "deep"?

A: All sacred undertakings always need to pay a huge price and bear sacrifices, but only by paying this price can we make greater contributions to mankind. For example, street trees bear the pain and bring "freshness" and "shade" to cities and pedestrians. This kind of sacrifice embodies the spirit of dedication, and this kind of sacrifice of personal happiness for the happiness of the people is a deeper happiness.

4. The first paragraph and the second paragraph of this article refer to each other, but they are slightly different in word order and words. Why?

Students discuss and answer, and the teacher makes it clear:

A: These two paragraphs have their own emphases. The first paragraph 1 mainly highlights the harsh environment in which street trees live, and the last paragraph mainly highlights the self-awareness that street trees are willing to contribute despite the harsh environment.

5. What does "depravity" mean in the second paragraph?

A: The word "depravity" is interpreted as depravity and vagrancy in the dictionary. In this article, it means living in a bad environment. Street trees left home, left the virgin forest and stood in the dust of the city. Their living conditions and self-image have greatly declined, and transsexuality is in this sense.

6. Why is the existence of street trees "just a sad embellishment"?

A: This sentence means "a city full of cars and chimneys". Vehicles and chimneys constantly produce smoke and dust, polluting the city. Urban residents have long been insensitive and used to filth. They don't value freshness. The feeling of the tree is very distinct. In their view, the city is full of smoke and dust, which is really sad. A row of green trees is just an ornament, which can't change the sad situation at all, so it's just an ornament of sadness.

7. The last sentence says, "We are a tree of sorrow and joy." Why are you sad? What are you worried about? Happy about what? I'm glad I made a contribution, but I feel sorry for my situation.

A: It says, "Maybe everyone has long been used to filth, but we still stubbornly create a sense of freshness that is not cherished." Dirty has seriously damaged the health of citizens. Unfortunately, people have become accustomed to it, are insensitive, and do not want to control pollution. Although street trees try their best to create freshness, they are limited and cannot change the overall situation. They are worried about the air pollution in the city and the health of citizens.

Happily, I can create fresh air and freshness for the city, shade it in summer and welcome the sun and light at dawn.

8. The image in the street trees is the image of selfless devotees. Through the confession of street trees, the author expressed the mind of the devotee and praised the lofty spirit of the devotee. 1, distance can bring two people closer to each other's hearts or cut off their feelings.

Loving someone is when you suddenly don't know what to say when you dial the phone, only to know that you just want to listen to the familiar voice. What you really want to dial is just a string in your heart.

I am a passer-by on the plank road of life.

I can't throw away some things.

5. I am happy, I am sad, I am greedy, and I give up.

6. The two books that have the greatest influence on my works are The Analects of Confucius and The Bible.

7. The writer Zhang Xiaofeng was asked: How can we love someone without being hurt? Zhang Xiaofeng said, "There are injuries-but what's the use of keeping yourself intact?"

8. If you can't fall in love, you can at least be compatible; If we can't understand each other, at least we can.

9. The opposite of love is not hate, but indifference.

10, life is a contract that can be terminated at any time, but love can cross life and death at the most mellow time.

1 1, for a person, hate is not the most cruel behavior, indifference is the most deadly weapon.

12, life is like rain, it looks beautiful, but more often, you have to endure those cold and humidity, those helplessness and loneliness, and live with the fantasy of sunny days.

13, since youth is a kind of regret that you feel like throwing waves no matter what you do, why not think about it the other way around, which is almost equal to "no matter what you really do, you don't have to regret it".

14, this day is beautiful and bright, I love this day itself; If the days are bleak and hard, I am grateful:' I have such a good body to bear all this.

15, water is always the first injection.

16, physicists can say, give me a fulcrum and a lever, and I can lift the earth. And I said, give me an explanation, I can trust the world again, I can accept history, and I can embrace this desolate city without hesitation.

17, is there a kind of scenery that can toss and turn with me? Is there any scenery that can be mutually confirmed with me?

18, the road is under the nose.

19, the tree is there, the mountain is there, the land is there, the years are there, and I am there. How can you create a better world?

20. May my life be the same. There are not too many gorgeous spring flowers, too many floating Xia Yun, no noise, no rotating colors, only a quiet and simple white, only the depth and seriousness of mature life, only dreams, as eager and solid as a red maple.

2 1, literature has two valuable places, one is language, the other is writing, and of course, the way of thinking after language and writing. If you are not loyal to your language and writing, you will be in trouble.

22. I used to be such a role. The most important thing is that we have a lively stage and a good-looking drama, which makes our season full of good memories.

23. A mother and son can only be regarded as a borrowed string, and they can play as long as they can, but the borrowed years have their return period after all.

24. Heaven and earth are just a station in the storm, and life is just all kinds of things and feelings. It's always good to write poems on the wall!

25. Heaven and earth are just a station in the storm, and life is just all kinds of things and feelings. It's always good to write poems on the wall! "the Monkey King fights with goblins."

BEIJING, Aug. 27 (Xinhua)-Zhang Xiaofeng, an essayist from Taiwan Province Province, gave a speech in the Bay Area of San Francisco, USA today, and publicly shared her mental journey of fighting colorectal cancer for the first time in the past 20 months. She said that if you are sick, you should face it bravely, just like walking a thrilling mountain road. "Father and son don't help each other." No one can help you get sick and no one can replace death.

According to the "Central News Agency" report, he was invited to give lectures countless times in his literary career, but when talking about his illness, Zhang Xiaofeng said that this was the first time in his life. She said modestly that when it comes to sharing, she is actually a mistress; After all, unlike other knowledge, illness can make you more confident on the stage by "enriching more".

Blood tests are always anemic. In 2005 10, after colonoscopy, doctors determined that Zhang Xiaofeng was the second stage of colorectal cancer. At that time, she was still teaching at Yangming University, and the assistant drafted a letter and refused all activities. The assistant wrote, "The teacher is too ill to promise to give a speech." Instead, she confessed, "Just tell everyone that I have colorectal cancer, there is no need to beautify it, and there is no need to have taboos."

Zhang Xiaofeng quoted allusions from China mythology. When the Monkey King fights with the leprechaun, if he calls the leprechaun's name, the leprechaun will run away with inferiority. She said that when you know who your opponent is, your opponent will run away.

After half a year's operation and chemotherapy, her condition was under control. To paraphrase a Minnan dialect, "Anti-cancer is his family's business", that is, doctors fight against diseases in the body, and patients are obedient. She described that when she was sick, she went to the hospital like a child, holding a baby bear puppet and some books, and the rest were set by the doctor.

Zhang Xiaofeng is famous in the three places, especially in prose. The first collection of essays, The End of Carpet, won the Zhongshan Prize for Literary Prose, which established her position as a talented woman in the literary world. Her latest collection of essays is All the Stars Are Here.

In addition to his works, Zhang Xiaofeng, who was 7 1 year-old in 2006, has been teaching in universities for more than 30 years and retired in June last year. Up to now, he is still teaching two lectures on "The View of Life and Death in Chinese and Western Literature" at Yangming University.

She told reporters that this is a long-cherished wish. Since 1975, when she changed from a professor of Chinese department to a professor of medical college, she has consciously developed a sense of responsibility for the humanistic direction of medical students.

Zhang Xiaofeng said with emotion that many people have thought about illness and life. After this experience, the three most important sentences for her to face death consciously are: "Thank you, I'm sorry, I love you."

Zhang Xiaofeng, a native of Tongshan, Jiangsu Province, wrote plays, essays and essays, and was elected as one of the top ten outstanding young women in Taiwan Province Province. The famous writer Yu Guangzhong praised Zhang Xiaofeng as a "smart pen that is both beautiful and luxurious". "This pen can not only describe the scenery, but also describe things and convey people's thoughts. Promotion is heroic, and suppression is delicate. " In recent years, he has devoted himself to the environmental protection movement and called for temperature. Reporter: The theme of this poetry festival is "Women and Poetry". As a poetess with decades of experience in poetry, what influence does your female identity have on writing poetry?

Zhang Xiaofeng: Women have a natural advantage in language. Women are more willing to use language, such as chatting with people, and are good at expressing their feelings in language, which is very helpful for writing poems. But now young women don't like to use language, and even the words "yes" are lazy. They prefer to use vision, such as staring at the computer or TV for a long time. The language of TV is poor. In fact, frequent use of language is very helpful for writing poetry.

Reporter: Writing poetry is often limited by age, but you are still writing poetry. How do you stay creative?

Zhang Xiaofeng: I think poetry can last a lifetime. I have been writing. There are two things to keep the ability to write poetry. One is to have something to say, to observe things carefully, and the other is to have the ability to express words, to string together experiences instantly and draw conclusions quickly. Reporter: Lin Yutang once lived on this island at your feet, and Liao Jia Villa is not far from you. As a member of the management committee of Lin Yutang's former residence in Taipei, how to commemorate this literary master?

Zhang Xiaofeng: Apart from discussing Lin Yutang's literary works, we should start with more nuances so that everyone can really feel Lin Yutang. For example, in order to feel Lin Yutang's quiet life in Zhangzhou when he was a child, we organized a cake-moistening party in Tomb-Sweeping Day (cake-moistening is spring rolls, reporter's note), and everyone made cakes together. Later, we specially sent people to Zhangzhou to learn about several ways to moisten cakes, and then we will introduce them to you when we return to Taiwan Province Province.

Reporter: From your point of view, what is the most precious spiritual wealth left by this literary master?

Zhang Xiaofeng: Humor! His humor is lonely in that environment and seems inappropriate. In fact, in my opinion, the more difficult it is, the more humorous it should be. Churchill was the leader of the allied forces during World War II. He said, "I won't leave until the hotel is closed." It means to quit only if you fail. You see, his humor will keep you from being discouraged in failure. People should not always be in a state of tension, which is very unfavorable to creation and life. Reporter: There is always a feeling of wandering when looking at life experiences. I heard that you were born on the way to War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression. Can you tell me something about your experience before you went to Taiwan Province Province?

Zhang Xiaofeng: My ancestral home is Xuzhou, Jiangsu, and my birthplace is Jinhua, Zhejiang. Indeed, I was born during the period of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression's migration. I was just born, and I have no impression of Jinhua. But I was honored to know that Jinhua was the place where Li Qingzhao lived. Li Qingzhao and I are in the same city. I like Li Qingzhao's poems very much, which is also a kind of fate. After the outbreak of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, our family moved to Chongqing. Actually, I don't remember much about Chongqing, because I was too young at that time. The first city I really remembered later was Nanjing. I can't forget this city for many years, until now. Xiamen still gives me the feeling of home in Taiwan Province Province. There is no difference between eating, living and traveling. That's great.

Reporter: But what you said made me feel calm instead of vicissitudes. Does the existence of hometown and writing give you a sense of belonging?

Zhang Xiaofeng: I have the fate of wandering, but I unexpectedly lived on an island for a long time. My body grew up in Taiwan Province province, but my heart seems to be connected with China in history. Whether I go to Nanjing or Xi, I think Nanjing is my hometown. It seems that literary ancestors such as Li Bai, Du Fu and Li Shangyin will come out to meet you at any time, so they are not geographically but spiritually related to tradition. As early as 1977, 36-year-old Zhang Xiaofeng was praised as one of the "Top Ten Contemporary Prose Writers in China" by Taiwan Province critics, saying that her pen was as hot as the sun and frost and snow were her virginity. Every article has the fragrance of Lengmei, and every word can be said to be the first perceptual sketch of her poetic prose.
