Analysis of key points and difficulties:

Understanding Pascal? Man is a reed that can think? The significance of the thought embodied in the famous metaphor of

Class schedule: 1 class

Teaching steps:

First, lead in

(multimedia play the theme song of On the Water Side)

? The white dew is frost. The so-called Iraqis are on the water side. ? Listening to this song, you can imagine patches of reeds standing alone by the river and swaying in the wind. That thin bones and muscles, green branches and leaves, unscrupulously publicize the green wildness, let the wind shake and let the rainstorm hit. The teenager looking for a beautiful woman against the current, with a long pole and a canoe, set off the dense reeds, created the most beautiful poem of an ancient civilization of 3, years! More than 2 years later, Pascal, a French philosopher, also had an epiphany after seeing reeds and sang? Man is a thinking reed? Such words of wisdom.

Second, cooperative inquiry

Read the text around the questions

1. Man is a thinking reed? What are the characteristics of people?

2. What is the core point of the article?

(Reference: 1. Thinking and fragility 2. Thought forms man's greatness)

3. Why? All human dignity lies in thought? And?

(Before and after four people discuss in groups, it is best to combine their own life experiences or examples they know)

* Introduction A: Thought sometimes brings not respect but torture to thinkers, such as Qu Yuan. On the banks of the river, the color is haggard and the description is haggard? , depicting the image of a hero with a dead end and a strong marketing. He can totally? Let it flow and raise its waves? Standing in the dark thinks this is light. Why do you have to be a lonely thinker? Because all human dignity lies in thought.

4. how to understand? Man is a thinking reed?

(Students discuss in cooperation and the representative speaks)

* Introduction B: When we watered the ants with water, many ants died in this flood. In fact, people are the same. A flash flood, a tsunami and a typhoon in nature so easily claimed people's lives. People are really a fragile and small creature. But people can think. Even if the universe destroyed him, man is still much more noble than what killed him; Because he knew he was going to die and the advantages the universe had for him, but the universe knew nothing about it. ? This makes people transcend the universe and nature on the spiritual level. This sentence makes us realize that thoughts make small people noble and great.

* Introducing C: Pascal is a reed grass of thought

Fragility: 1. Poor health, which always afflicts him; 2. His mother left him when he was three years old

3. His sister was influenced by him and entered the monastery, feeling guilty all her life; 4. She died young at the age of 39

Greatness: Pascal's Hexagon Theorem in geometry, Pascal's Triangle Theorem in physics. He also made a mercury barometer, and Pascal, the unit of pressure, was named after him. And wrote this one to walk with you? Old people who have read all the vicissitudes of life and human feelings? The record of thoughts. Some people have commented that Pascal is to France what Plato is to Greece, Dante is to Italy, Cervantes is to Spain, and Shakespeare is to England.

summary:? Man is a thinking reed? In fact, it is divided into two levels. To say that man is powerful, dignified and meaningful mainly refers to the culture, art and thought that human beings have, and at this level, man is powerful; To say that people are as fragile as reeds means that physical life is too fragile and easy to decay. Ten thousand years is too long? In the long history, an individual's life is insignificant, and the body is often so vulnerable in the face of powerful external forces.

With the growth of age, we can see more and more familiar and vivid lives. Inadvertently, in unexpected accidents that we can't grasp, Yin and Yang are separated in an instant. Life gives us the feeling that more people turn off the lights. At this time, you have to admit the fragility of life. Sometimes its fragility is simply fragile! Because of this, I think that the so-called greatness and immortality of human beings can only come from the spiritual level. Without the spiritual level of human beings, the body carrying life becomes empty, nihilistic and meaningless. It can be seen that thoughts and people are important.

Third, expand and extend

(Check the famous sayings and sentences about ideas collected by students in the preview)

The students have done their homework very well, and I have done some homework. Let's share and appreciate it together and talk about your opinions.

(Projection: 1. I think, therefore I am.

2. When human beings think, God laughs.

3. As long as a person has thoughts and meets ghosts and gods, ghosts and gods are afraid of you; When you meet a mountain, the mountain will give way to you; When you meet a river, the river will pave a bridge for you; When you meet the sky, the sky will give you wings. The power of thought is unstoppable. )

(students can speak freely and make sense)

Teacher: No matter how small and fragile human beings are, as Pascal said? All human dignity lies in thought? . The biggest difference between people and animals is that people can think, explore and change the world. Great thoughts create the power of human civilization. Facing the miracle created by human beings, Faust, who was once pessimistic and world-weary, could not help sighing? Stop it, aren't you beautiful? . There is a famous one in psychology? Maslow Pyramid? .

(Projection: physiological needs, security needs, social needs, respect needs and self-realization needs)

Teacher: Physiological needs are the needs for food, water, air and housing; Security needs include personal safety, life stability and freedom from pain, threat or disease; Social needs include the need for friendship, love and affiliation; Respect needs include both personal feelings about achievements or self-worth, as well as others' recognition and respect for themselves; The goal of self-realization needs is self-realization, or those who reach the realm of self-realization, accept themselves and others.

life is just like this pyramid. we should not only be satisfied with our own verbal desires, but also pursue something spiritually? So who is your spiritual idol and why?

(Students communicate with each other)

Summary: Those who can not give up their thoughts in times of suffering and hardship are the real thinkers. The article we are studying today is selected from The Record of Thoughts, which is the thought that Pascal recorded occasionally. These scattered and disorderly thoughts are true and meticulous, reflecting the light of Pascal's thought. In fact, in our study and life, any problem can be solved as long as we think positively and be a conscientious person. If we are good at thinking, we can catch and keep the thoughts that flash by chance at any time, even if they are sporadic and disorderly! One day, it will be a different taste to go back and look at the sparks of thought that I have sorted out.

Fourth, thinking training

Nature is full of philosophy. As long as you observe it carefully and experience it with all your heart and soul, you can find infinite truth in it. Once it is triggered, it will be truly interesting in writing. Like Tagore said? If life is gorgeous in summer, and death is beautiful in autumn? , Guo Pu? There is no quiet tree in the forest, and there is no stop in the river? Pascal's `? Man is a thinking reed? .

The same image of reed is a poetic symbol in Jia Jian, a fragile symbol in Pascal's eyes, and what is it like in Zhang Chi's mind?

(Read Reed in My Heart, and discuss and analyze the beauty of thinking from different angles. )

V. Homework Design

A delicate reed, because we have different aesthetic perspectives, reading is different spiritual connotations. Isn't this the greatness of human thought? After class, please let your thoughts fly, look for the hidden philosophy in nature and write it in words.

VI. Design of blackboard writing:

People are small because of their fragility

People are great because of their thoughts

Attachment: Reed in the heart [Zhang Chi]

In my memory, there is a dense reed. She is like a free spirit, in the indifference away from the secular world, alone guarding the barren land along the river, sifting the wind and playing the moon, and being handsome. The thin bones and muscles highlight the poetry of life one after another, and the dense reed flowers, like bright smiles, condense the bitterness and tranquility of the wild land into eternal silence, intoxicating the golden wind and the poet. It's like Wang Wei's landscape poems. There is no realistic meaning and historical trace, only a touch of light and ethereal floating at the height of smoke, and a sense of separation, a sense of loneliness, a sense of randomness and dissipation that is unknown and has no intention of being known, and primitive simplicity and lightness.

Sandy reed, rooted on the beach, unrestrained; Swaying beside the fiber bridge, it is full of enthusiasm. From the lush lake green, it gradually turned into a dignified ink color, but it is still slim and graceful. Even if we climb the mountains in the season and wait for the frost to come, the dazzling reeds will blend with the white clouds in the sky, stretching to the distant places that the moonlight can't touch, and it will still be white and shiny, full of fluffy tension, and then draw the end of life in the cold purity.

This white-haired reed is a ray of Qiu Guang floating leisurely on the woodcutter's firewood, and a touch of desolate charm lingering from the village girl's brow. Like a woman with fragrant clothes and a shadow on her temples, she waded in from ancient times, from the Book of Songs. The white dew is frost? Then it became a swan song. In the whirling current, the young sailors who rowed the Artemisia argyi boat, picked orchids and picked zhi, and the gentle and graceful ladies on the water side set off the dense reeds, which became the most beautiful poems in the ancient civilization of 3, years.

If you send a raft to trace back to the source of reeds, you can hear many romantic stories about the trumpets stretching along the beach and the end of stockade. You will also find that the desolate and beautiful reed flowers can easily stir up the deep vicissitudes of life and the pain of history.

On the shore of the Yi River, Gao Jianli struck and built. In the sad melody, Jing Ke bid farewell to Yan Taizi Dan and set foot on the road of no return. The reed flowers behind him must be blown up in the rustling cold wind. On the banks of the Wujiang River, besieged on all sides, the overlord of the place of Chu is heartbroken. What if you're worried? In the lamentation, Yu Ji waved a long sword and fluttered her skirt for the last dance of life. In the place where she fell, the fog was boundless, and it was a piece of white mourning. It was the reed flowers on the bank that were flying snow and frost for this sad farewell. On the banks of the Guluo River, Qu Yuan, a courtier who issued songs, covered his tears and sighed, asking questions in the sky. The tyrant is autocratic, and the king of Chu is fatuous. Living in a temple can't solve problems for the people; You can't share your worries for you by going to the countryside. The great loneliness of life stagnates in the heart and rushes to the chest, making the poet jump into the river. The ripples are the tears of the reeds, flowing in the wet night. The branches and leaves of youthful life wrapped up the reverence and yearning of thousands of people in Qian Qian, and plunged into the long river of history, becoming the deepest commemoration of the Dragon Boat Festival.

it was in college that I really owned reeds. I like walking by the river behind the school-there, the dense reeds are like endless ribbons, spreading slowly in the distance. The tassel-like reed flowers, like clouds, are filled with fragrance in the moonlight like gauze and fog. Milk-like twilight flows like smoke, birds whisper among the reeds, cicadas sing and insects sing. Quiet, gentle and full of poetry is at your fingertips. If it's Sunday, the sun is streaming warmly, I weave a boat with reed leaves and gently put it into the river to watch it drift away with the wind. More often, I hold a roll in my hand, under the reed flower, angry with Qu Zi, drunk with Taibai, and crazy with Dongpo. In the transparent state of mind woven by continuous autumn rain and velvet reed flowers, I read the bitterness, pain, loneliness, mellow, frank and bitter between the lines. The bitterness of the vicissitudes of life and historical tragedies is like a sharp blade of blood. Our predecessors crushed it and swallowed it. They would rather be deeply grieved than smile with tears, and gently say, the past is like smoke!

people are weak, just like a reed, but they are strong, and they glow with infinite toughness from weakness, which even they may not realize, and accompany us all the way forward. French philosopher Pascal said:? Thought forms man's greatness. Man is just a reed, the most fragile thing in nature, but it is a thinking reed. ?

This thinking reed is you, me?
