Lin Qingxuan’s prose reading sharing

If you ask me: What was your favorite thing to do as a student? I would not hesitate to say: "Read!" It's a warm spring day, holding a volume of books, sitting in front of the window, eating snacks and reading, how comfortable it is!

If you ask me: What is the happiest thing to do as a parent? I would readily say: "Buy a book!" The holidays are long, there are "mythical beasts" at home, toys cost money, and TV hurts the eyes. Buying a book to accompany your child kills two birds with one stone, and that's a worry-free experience!

? What I am doing now is what Chinese teachers do most often: recommending books. We often say: "How broad life is, so is language." The Chinese language is vast and profound, and its culture has a long history. How can it be covered by a thin Chinese textbook? Therefore, the most convenient and effective way to learn Chinese is to read and write.

? I am honored to recommend a book to everyone here - "Collected Prose of Lin Qingxuan". There are so many classics. The reason why I choose Taiwanese writer Lin Qingxuan’s article to recommend to everyone is for the following two reasons:

1. Lin Qingxuan’s article is very inspiring. My classmates have seen his works. I wonder if you still remember a text from primary school - "Race against Time"? Mr. Lin wrote in the article, "If I have anything to teach my children in the future, I will tell them that if you keep racing against time, you can succeed." I want to say to the students that the collections of famous works selected for the textbooks are all You can read with confidence. This is one of my criteria for buying books for my children. In addition to this text, Mr. Lin has many other articles that have been selected into Chinese textbooks for primary and secondary schools and Chinese language anthologies for universities in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Singapore. His articles have also been selected for Chinese language examination papers for high school entrance examinations and college entrance examinations many times. Such as "Mahogany", "Red Sweet Potato", "Snowy Boy", "Lily in the Heart", etc. His articles are so beautiful and full of warmth, delicate and philosophical.

? Mr. Man is as good as his writing. ? Mr. Lin Qingxuan was born in a rural area in southern Taiwan in 1953. There are 18 brothers and sisters in his family, and he is the 12th. "My father is a farmer, and he has been a farmer for three generations." He did not go to a good school, and even the teachers at the school were inexperienced. "It can be said that he grew up in a place without culture and civilization. He left his hometown at the age of 14 to study in a different place to make a living. At the age of 14, he was exactly the age of his classmates. In order to make a living, he worked as a waiter in a restaurant and He worked as a dock worker, set up a street stall, and butchered pigs. What is commendable is that no matter what job he was engaged in, he could persist in writing.

There is a short story about his ambition. It was written in the book that when he was in elementary school, he was not good at his homework. Once he managed to score 60 points on a math test. He excitedly took it home and showed it to his father. He wanted to get praise, but his father laughed and said, "I spent most of it." After a lifetime, I finally found my successor! " He swore in his heart: "I don't want to be a farmer, I want to study hard and become a writer. "When he was dreaming about earning money by reading and writing, his father told him, "You are just daydreaming," but he really turned this dream into a reality. When he was in elementary school, he wrote 500 words a day and 1,000 words a day in middle school. , 2,000 words a day in high school. Through non-stop writing and reflection, he finally began to publish works at the age of 17. He published his first book at the age of 20. He won all the literary awards in Taiwan before he was 30 years old. At the age of 35, he went to the mountains to practice and wrote "Body and Body Settlement". " series, he wrote the "Bodhi" series at the age of 40. He has been rated as the top ten best-selling writers in Taiwan for ten consecutive years and is known as "one of the eight masters of contemporary prose". On January 22, 2019, the day before his death, he also He left a passage to inspire us: “Although we live in a dusty web, we should never lose our desire to fly and never forget the posture of flying. "My husband has passed away, but his article is like a perfume lily, which will bloom in our hearts forever, fragrant to future generations. He used his own life to fulfill the promise of the first lily, "We must bloom silently and wholeheartedly, so as to Flowers to prove their existence. ”

The second reason for recommending Mr. Lin Qingxuan’s works is: his works are simple and bright, wise and profound, clear in artistic conception, and very philosophical. Reading his books can not only feel the blue sky and white clouds, the night sky and the stars, The grass in the wilderness can make people abandon the impetuousness and chaos of daily life and gain inner tranquility and peace. The works that represent his style include "The World Is Tasty", "Living in the Moment", "Being at ease with the situation", and "The weather is cold and dew heavy". , "Don't Forget Your Original Intention", "A Calm Life", just listening to the title of the book can give people a sense of elegance and comfort. Nowadays, some people are prone to depression and do stupid things. The important reason is: they cannot recognize themselves and are unhappy inside. I especially recommend those who are young and confused, can’t find their direction, or feel stressed or unhappy to read carefully his articles. His words are like flowing water and his words are like the sun in winter.” Mr. Yu Qiuyu once said: “Mr. Lin is not imparting professional knowledge. , but a person who conveys a good mood. "Indeed, whenever I encounter setbacks and feel tired and helpless, I read two articles by Lin Qingxuan. Watch him "warm a pot of moonlight and drink wine." "A wave of his sleeves, the breeze is bright and the moon is bright. A smile to the sky, a happy life, a pair of cloth shoes, travel all over the mountains and rivers. A pearl in the heart, the mountains and rivers are bright." Reading his articles is like "face to face" Look toward the sea and watch the spring blossoms." Reading his article is like "putting your hands together and reciting the Pure Heart Buddha Mantra. With your mind and heart united, you will see a pure lotus spreading from your feet and passing through your meridians. Then spit it out of your mouth.

? I think novels are a sumptuous meal, and famous writers’ prose is like millet porridge. A big meal is delicious and difficult to digest, but rice is bland and nourishes the spleen and stomach. Eat rice for every meal to be healthier. (Mr.’s articles are short in length, with natural materials, sincere feelings, and light taste. They are very suitable for students to read, appreciate, imitate and learn from. If you read his articles carefully, you will find that most of his writing ideas are: starting from small things in daily life, through Narrative analysis and summary of life philosophy make people think deeply and have endless aftertaste. This style of writing is very similar to the popular styles of "Yilin", "Reader" and "Philosophy", and it is also very consistent with the standard of perfect composition. Here, some students will say, I'd better read articles and magazines. Reading magazines is like going shopping to see people, and reading author's monographs is like making friends. Big difference. Can be deleted.) My child is of the same age as you. My reading advice for her is: read novels and memorize poetry during holidays, and read prose and write excerpts in normal times. I remember when I first recommended her to read "Proses of Famous Writers", she read the entire book in one day. I smiled and said to her, "You are a typical person who gulps down dates and wastes his wealth." The biggest difference between essays and novels is that essays need to be read carefully and slowly, dotted and outlined, and recited from memory. One or two articles should be read every day, and ten articles should be read every week. Eight articles are enough, and the growth under subtle influence will be more practical and natural.

(? There are more than 100 books written by Mr. Lin. Students who love reading can choose one to read first, such as "Selected Collection of Prose by Mr. Lin Qingxuan", and then read the rest of his works after reading one. What I am currently reading is Mr. Lin’s collection of works in his later years. These three volumes, "Xuan Xiang", "Qing Huan" and "Lin Quan", summarize Mr. Lin’s writing mood and tips over the years with sincerity and gratitude. It makes reading It's touching and rewarding. Interested students can also take a look at it.) There was a famous writer named Bai Hua among the alumni of Huangchuan No. 2 Middle School. I have an expectation and a premonition: among the students who are listening carefully today, there will definitely be a few students who will one day be able to publish books and biographies like Mr. Lin and become famous far and wide. It is an ideal state to read his articles and learn from his people. If not, reading a book and planting a dream are also good choices. As the teacher said, "The saddest thing in life is not that you don't want to pursue it, but that you forget to pursue it." I hope all the students can run towards the distance of their dreams!

Finally, I would like to end today’s sharing with Mr. Lin’s words: “Third-rate makeup is makeup for the face, second-rate makeup is spiritual makeup, and first-rate makeup is makeup for life. Reading and writing are The make-up of spirit and life. "Students, no matter how educated you are or how far you go in the future, I hope you will use books as friends and pens as companions to broaden your horizons and cultivate your spirit. If you love reading and writing, you will be the most beautiful person! I look forward to picking up a volume of "Collected Prose of Lin Qingxuan" in the morning and afternoon. You will definitely be able to stay awake when there is turmoil, regain tranquility when there is chaos, gain strength when you fail, and embrace hope when you are sad. This is also the sincere wish that the No. 2 Middle School teacher I represent sends to the students at this moment.

Thank you all!
