Matters needing attention in reading patriotic classics:
Understand the background and author.
When reading any text, you need to know its background and author information. This not only helps to understand the deep meaning of the text, but also helps to better understand the feelings and opinions that the author wants to express. For example, when reading Qu Yuan's Li Sao, we need to know Qu Yuan's life and his background, so as to better understand why he wrote such a poem.
2. Pay attention to the language and structure of the text.
Excellent literary works are often very delicate in language and structure. By paying attention to the use and structure of language, we can better understand how texts express themes and emotions. For example, when reading Xin Qiji's Jade Case Yuan, we need to carefully taste the contrast and echo between words in order to truly appreciate the poet's deep affection.
3. Think about the meaning of this text
Reading famous articles is not only to appreciate language and art, but also to think about the meaning of the text. These famous articles often convey some profound philosophies or values, which require readers to think deeply. For example, if you read Wen Tianxiang's Song of Benevolence and Righteousness, you need to think about whether this spirit of adhering to principles and refusing to surrender is valuable now and what impact it has on individuals and society.
