What experiences will those children who have been forced to memorize ancient poetry have when they grow up?

Recently, Wu Yishu, a girl from Fudan Middle School, has undoubtedly become the biggest hot topic. At the age of only 16, she successfully won the championship in the \”Chinese Poetry Conference\” and became a modern version of a talented girl! Wu Yishu feels that there are many feelings in ancient poetry that modern people cannot give her. It doesn\’t really matter the result of the competition, as long as she still likes poetry, as long as she still enjoys the happiness that poetry brings her, that\’s enough. It\’s so well said. Ancient poetry has a magical power that can bring happiness to people. Mr. Wu fell in love with ancient poetry on his own, but have any classmates ever been forced to memorize ancient poetry? ——Of course, there seems to be a lot more. If you think about it carefully, ancient poems are really not as interesting as storybooks that make you addicted as soon as you read them. But why are there so many people memorizing ancient poems? ——They were all forced! Once, I had a dinner with my best friends. As we were chatting, we started talking about the experience of being forced by our parents to recite ancient poems when we were young. My best friend’s husband, who graduated with a Ph.D. in Chinese from Beijing Normal University (he is older than us, we call him “Brother Zhang”) couldn’t help but open it. Chatterbox. At first, Brother Zhang felt that memorizing was really nonsense. Each Chinese language test only involves a few questions, and most of them are content in the textbook. Why do you have to work so hard and rack your brains to memorize such things? So many extracurricular songs! When he was a child, when he thought about how many sticks he received from his mother for reciting ancient poems, he became so angry that he hated those ancient literati and poets. Brother Zhang recalled the past and said: \”My mother didn\’t have much education, but she always tried her best to borrow some ancient books with a sense of time from elsewhere for me to read. When I was in elementary school, I didn\’t want to memorize Tang poetry and Song lyrics, so my mother would Sticks, chasing me behind. I had no choice but to run away and memorize ancient poems at the same time. When I learned how to recite them, I recited them loudly to my mother. Only then did she stop chasing me. I remember one time, in the middle of summer. My mother hated iron and chased me for a long distance. Because she was running too fast, she accidentally tripped over a stone and made her ankle bleed. I was so frightened that I recited 20 ancient poems in a row. Let her be merciful to me.\” He also secretly complained about his mother, feeling that her mother was too cruel and made his childhood a lot monotonous. A little boy in their village can climb trees to dig out bird eggs and roll in the mud when he is four or five years old; when he is seven or eight years old, he still doesn’t know what it’s like. But carrying it on his back, he gradually became obsessed with poetry. He found it catchy and fun, and began to enjoy it. He no longer needed his mother to push him to recite it. Slowly, I grew up and began to appreciate the beauty in poetry: In spring, when I saw the peach blossoms in full bloom, I knew what \”the peach blossoms are blooming, their flowers are burning.\” In the summer, I saw the lotus ponds full of lotus flowers. Leaves, I know what it means \”the lotus leaves are infinitely green to reach the sky, and the lotus flowers are uniquely red when reflecting the sun.\” In autumn, when I see the falling yellow leaves, I know what it means \”the west wind brings back the old Xiaoxiang tree, and the fluttering yellow leaves leave the branches.\” In winter, when I see the white snow, I know what it means: \”Suddenly a spring breeze comes overnight, and thousands of pear blossoms bloom on thousands of trees.\”…Those ancient poems that I once recited were quietly buried in the soil of memory. One day, I encountered a certain scenery and a certain state of mind while traveling, and suddenly I understood that poem, that sentence, that painting that had traveled through thousands of years., that feeling. As a person who has read a lot of poems and books, even if he is writing love letters or falling in love, he does not need to talk about disgusting words such as \”I love you, I miss you\” every day. He can also use the charm of poetry to brew the wine of love. It is as sweet as glutinous rice, refreshing the heart and spleen. Brother Zhang and his wife many years ago, one was studying for a PhD in Beijing and the other was studying for a master\’s degree in Shanghai. Although the era of \”swan geese sending letters\” has long passed, the classic love poems in the sincere emails are the best explanation of their tender love: \”When the golden wind and jade dew meet, they will win countless things in the world.\” , \”The bond between life and death is broad, I said it to you. Hold your hand and grow old together with me.\”, \”When the ends of the earth are limited, there is only endless love.\”, \”Heaven is not old, love is hard to break. The heart is like a double silk screen. , There are thousands of knots in it.\”, \”Tender love is like water, and good times are like dreams. If the two love lasts for a long time, how can they be in court.\”, \”There is no colorful phoenix flying wings in the body, but there is a clear understanding in the heart.\” Ask Brother Zhang When I was a child, I was forced to memorize ancient poems. What was my experience when I grew up? Do I still resent my mother\’s aggressiveness in my heart? Brother Zhang said with deep feeling: \”By insisting on reciting ancient poems, I gained the two great joys of life – a soul that is good at discovering and perceiving beauty, and a love that makes two people happy and harmonious! As I grow up slowly, my mind matures. I am too late to be grateful for my mother\’s strict requirements, so why should I feel resentful!\” Speaking of being forced to memorize ancient poems, I thought of my high school Chinese teacher. My classmates affectionately called her: Cao Ma – A Will The little old lady who uses magic loves China\’s profound culture to the core, and she also studies it deeply. She can tell us the literati, works and allusions from ancient and modern times to us in detail. She only took over the mess of our class in her second year of high school. In the words of the principal at the time, it was rare for our class to be partial to subjects. There are as many as 20 parallel classes, and the math, physics and chemistry rankings are always at the top, but the class Chinese scores are rock solid and ranked first from the bottom, which shows how bad it is! After Cao Ma took over the Chinese language class of our class, she resolutely implemented the policy of \”forcing students to copy and memorize ancient poems if they disagree\”. She once gave us a dense list of ancient poems to recite in the first class. Every time there is a class, without saying a word, someone is first asked to recite designated ancient poems. It\’s miserable if you can\’t memorize it. Regardless of the length of the article, you have to copy it 20 times! Until I can recite it fluently! She discussed with the teachers in the school library and customized an extended version of ancient poetry reading class for our class. She took us to the library and forced us to read ancient poems and poems. She was caught by Cao\’s mother and ordered to come to the library to read and excerpt all her spare time in the next week. The \”high-pressure policy\” implemented by Cao Ma was initially resisted by many classmates. The little thorn in the class secretly incited everyone\’s resistance, saying why bother memorizing what the ancients said, if you have the time, you might as well answer a few more math, physics and chemistry questions, the score-raising effect will be huge. But in the end, Cao Ma surrendered one by one and joined in the recitation process. Ma Cao is indeed a well-known teaching expert. The recitation of ancient poems gave everyone a new understanding of word choice, sentence structure, article structure, and clever ideas, etc.! More importantly, everyone started to talk to each otherLove of learning literature. In less than one semester, our class’s Chinese performance has experienced a “miraculous turn”. What is even more surprising is that our class’s average Chinese score in the college entrance examination ranks third in the province! The increase in Chinese scores has made many people realize their college dreams of 211/985! In the following study and life, everyone actually maintained their love for ancient poetry in a tacit understanding. When asked about my experience when I was forced to memorize ancient poems by Cao’s mother when I grew up, many of me would say this: How many literati seemed to have come from the depths of history to give guidance and comfort to the souls of people who love ancient poems. , point out the direction. The essence of those cultures has been integrated into the blood, turning into the elegance and propriety of daily conversation and the gentleness of daily behavior. Next, let’s take a look at how ancient poetry can quickly distinguish people’s cultural realm. For example: When meeting a beautiful girl, the boss will only say: \”I am X, she is a beauty!\” But people who have read \”The Book of Songs\” can easily pick it up: \”Guan Guan Jiu Jiu, in the river island; fair lady, gentleman is so jealous.\” For example: When facing the beautiful scenery, what comes to mind is not dry words \”It\’s so beautiful\”, but the charming artistic conception of \”the sunset and the solitary owl fly together, the autumn water is the same color as the sky.\” The profound cultural accumulation of ancient poetry has many benefits, such as: it can save embarrassing Chinese language scores and improve people\’s Aesthetic level can make the taste of love more lasting and make the conversation more elegant and appropriate. However, everything is difficult at the beginning and even harder to persevere! After all, reciting is a boring thing that requires perseverance. If you don\’t invest your energy, how can you appreciate the fragrance of knowledge? When children first express their sorrow and show timidity, do adults relent and let them live their lives naturally? To put it bluntly, you are not helping your child, you are watching your child become mediocre without giving him a hand! We don’t expect our children to become great poets when they grow up. We hope that they can enjoy the fun of reading and reciting, improve their cultural accomplishment and taste, and always live their own spiritual fullness no matter where they are. Please don’t think that forcing children to memorize ancient poems is killing their playful nature. The birth of interest is often not for no reason. How many strong interests start from helpless forcing! When accompanying, supervising or even forcing children to recite ancient poems, it not only tests persistence, but also adults\’ understanding of life, time management, and responsibility for children. At the same time, in the long journey of life, children also need to practice it and slowly realize that success in anything is not achieved overnight. Only by investing time and energy, and only by perseverance, can we touch that clear spring! What will it be like for those children who were forced to memorize ancient poems when they were young? Let’s take into account the initial stage of falling in love with ancient poetry, which has a bit of a compulsive feel. Most people will still be glad that they have been influenced by ancient poetry culture since childhood, and this will still make them feel very happy!
