I want to read some books to improve my literary accomplishment, but I find that I am often poor in words when I speak. I want to improve my literary and Chinese literacy, but I don't know what books to read. The ability of language expression is related to the foundation of Chinese. In this respect, you should consciously read rather than simply read, both ancient poems and modern prose can be used. The more classic, the better. There is no need to find another way, because rhetoric or anecdotes used in daily life have been exposed in primary and secondary schools, such as Tang poetry and Song poetry, historical records, Han Shu, Lao, Zhuang and Analects of Confucius.

If you are short of talking materials, you should read widely, not just literature. Literature should also read classics, such as Les Miserables, Jane Eyre and Anna? Karenina, War and Peace, The Count of Monte Cristo, Pride and Prejudice, The Old Man and the Sea, Hamlet, Wuthering Heights, Don Quixote and One Hundred Years of Solitude.

China, Four Great Classical Novels, of course. In modern literature, you can choose the works of Lu Xun, Wen Yiduo, Lao She, Yu Dafu, Xu Zhimo, Mao Dun, Guo Moruo, Cao Yu, Qian Zhongshu and Zhang Ailing according to your interest, and an understanding of the writer's life will help you read. Some contemporary works include "Ordinary World", "White Deer Plain" and "Dust Settled". I suggest you find the literature department of major publishing houses. There are many famous books departments at home and abroad, such as Shanghai Translation Famous Books Library of Shanghai Translation Publishing House and Mao Dun Literature Award-winning Books Department of People's Literature Publishing House. To get a brief introduction of all kinds of books. On the one hand, you can have a preliminary understanding of these classics (enough to say), on the other hand, you can find books that you are interested in, and you can find them for in-depth reading.

In addition, I recommend you to watch the column "Open the Book for Eight Minutes" of Phoenix Satellite TV (there are videos on the Internet), with a brief introduction:
