1. How to continue writing an essay
"Composition, composition, it gives me a headache."
How to write an essay? Faced with this problem, I believe it is a big problem for both domestic children and our group of overseas children. It is a big problem that has troubled everyone for a long time. But fortunately, children in China, when faced with writing essays, will piece together a long paragraph for you no matter how difficult it is.
What is pitiful is that our group of overseas children, lacking a language environment and time, have to be exposed to unfamiliar writing. This undoubtedly increases their learning burden.
Let’s “write” this, the child is in trouble. Don't "write", the teacher is in trouble.
There is no point in learning a language by just listening, reading, and speaking without writing. Let’s talk about my own experience based on my own teaching experience.
1. Keep your eyes open and look for composition materials from around you. As the saying goes, "It is difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice." Children often seem confused when they pick up a pen to write a composition. measures.
Children often complain: "I have nothing to write" and "I don't know what to write." At this time, the teacher’s first task is to help students find materials for their exercises.
Different school age levels can be treated differently. For example, in the class teaching the fourth volume of the Chinese textbook, based on the age characteristics of the children, I took out my beloved toy cat, and then used the existing materials to guide the students to speak a paragraph, asking them to speak clearly in the order from head to tail. , let each student have something to say, and make them feel that composition is not difficult, as long as they write down what they see and feel.
In addition, when looking at pictures and writing words, it is required to follow the process of speaking first and writing later. In this way, on the one hand, students' oral conversation skills are exercised, and on the other hand, students are helped to practice writing.
In fact, the materials for articles can be found everywhere in life. In senior classes, children are required to find the materials for their own compositions. For example: a trip to the outskirts, the school held a sports meeting, the school organized a factory visit... If the teacher can consciously provide guidance to the students in advance, the students can certainly learn to observe life purposefully and capture the touching scenes in life.
Because these materials come from real people and real events that everyone is familiar with, students will naturally look for the source of their compositions from the colorful life. 2. Use model essays to let children learn to imitate and create. Having materials does not mean that you can write good articles. Guidance on writing methods is a crutch for students to write. For our children studying Chinese overseas, I encourage students to imitate and create. Learn from the example.
Today’s children studying Chinese overseas generally face the following problems. 1. Lack of vocabulary.
For example, when writing to describe "happy" things, the whole article is "happy" without considering other adjectives. 2. The sentences are not fluent.
Although our children have mastered a certain number of words and sentence patterns in their studies, when they use these words and sentence patterns in writing, they often construct a sentence in their minds first. Japanese sentence structure and then translate it into Chinese. For example, "I read the book" (the correct one is "I read the book"), "I eat first", "I leave first", etc. (the correct one is "I eat first", "I leave first").
3. Inadequate observation and in-depth description. For example, when writing a character composition, when describing the character's characteristics, there are no specific examples and lack of psychological activities of the character.
In view of the above characteristics, if you select some excellent works by children of the same age, print them out for students to read, and make appropriate comments on the good techniques or ideas in the articles. This not only increases students' reading volume, but also provides some guidance to students who cannot read and write.
Over time, they will naturally master many new forms. 3. See more, read more, memorize more, and accumulate more. Writing is a kind of creation.
The key to writing a good composition lies in the accumulation of observations and memory storage; from speaking to writing, revising carefully, reading more and writing more. In teaching, I suggest that students read more. If conditions permit, let students collect more model articles and newspaper clippings, copy and recite good words, sentences and paragraphs, so that they can memorize and use them.
Practice makes perfect. After practice, your pen becomes familiar and you have more materials, and you will become more comfortable writing articles.
Learning Chinese is not a simple process for overseas children, but I believe that as long as you are determined and willing to learn, you will be able to learn it well. 2. Please give me some ideas for a continuation essay
In my opinion, there are only the following points to write a good essay:
1. Rigorous layout:
As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning, but as long as you make a good start, this essay will be easy to write.
Fengtou: It is the first paragraph of the article. It is the first place that the marking teacher catches the eye. The center of the entire article must be grasped. The following paragraph must be coherent and closely integrated with the first paragraph. It must be passed through The beginning should give the following something to write about, and the beginning should have the effect of refreshing the marking teacher. For example, rhetorical techniques such as parallelism, metaphor, and personification are skillfully used, and through these rhetorical techniques, the main theme of the whole text is guided.
Pork belly: In a good article, the paragraphs will be just right, but when there is only one large paragraph or two or three paragraphs in the article, no matter how outstanding the literary talent is, the article will not be A score that is too high is because the marking teacher has to judge an essay every three minutes when marking papers in the high school entrance examination. The workload is quite heavy. If the marking teacher is not good at dividing the paper into sections, the marking teacher may lose patience and may not finish the essay and will rush it. gives scores. Therefore, in my opinion, an article should be divided into at least 6-8 paragraphs, but not one line or several lines and one paragraph, but it should look like tofu blocks, with the pieces neatly arranged together to make the article tight but loose. There is a degree of relaxation. The entire article should look like a whole, not fragmented. 2014 High School Entrance Examination Essay Writing Skills and Methods
Leopard’s Tail: At the end of the article, the theme should be made more prominent, the theme should be sublimated, and the leopard’s tail should be pumped! Or make people feel that there are twists and turns, a bright future or a further special effect. At the end of the article, the topic should be mentioned again, closely focusing on the central idea, so that the central idea throughout the article can continue to be extended and thought-provoking. Especially at the end, it should echo, contrast, progress, etc. with the beginning, to trigger the reading teacher's scream!
2. Delicate writing style: whether it is narrative, discussion or prose; whether it is writing about people, events or scenes. They must be presented in delicate writing to make the midpoint of the article more prominent, so that the marking teacher can think deeply when reading the test paper, slow down the reading speed and repeat reading, so that the marking teacher can be immersed in the situation, so as to make the marking teacher think deeply. The article is more spiritual.
3. Thoughts and feelings throughout: In an article that is properly laid out and well-organized, there must also be a line of thoughts that runs through it. This line is like the spine of a fish. Importantly, this line must be clear and unambiguous, and must not be ambiguous.
Grasping these points, a good high school entrance examination essay has been roughly formed, but if you want to stand out in the high school entrance examination, this is just the beginning. 3. Learn to continue writing. What is continuation writing?
Long story short
Continuation writing means starting from the original text, following the original text's ideas, and extending the original text. Before continuing writing, it is important to read the original text thoroughly so that you are familiar with the plot, accurately grasp the characters, and thoroughly understand the purpose of the full text. Only in this way can the continued part be connected with the original text and integrated into one.
For example:
If the original text is mainly about recording events, the continuation should be a natural extension of the event. Keep the central event unchanged, that is, follow the original narrative perspective and continue to write a new plot around the central event.
If the original text is mainly about characters, the character traits of the continued part must be consistent with the original text. Even if the character's personality develops and changes, it must be reasonable.
Benefits of continuation writing:
Continuation writing is beneficial to cultivating association and imagination. 4. Key points for writing continuation essays
Language training for continuation propositions can cultivate young students’ imagination and ability to predict things, which are the core of new talents in the 21st century. aspect. Last year's call for essays "After the Apple Was Bite..." was initiated by Guangming Daily and sparked a strong response across the country, which is a strong proof of this. The 20 outstanding students in this competition were directly admitted to the country's first-class universities for "one article determines their life", which strongly reflects the great importance that China attaches to the cultivation of innovative talents. The continuation composition requires "truth" in a broad sense, so it allows and requires us to fictionalize and imagine along a certain track.
If the text provided by the proposer has revealed the character's age, occupation, identity, and personality, then the continued article must follow the logic of the character's characteristics and personality, and the logic of plot development facing downwards. Continue writing. For example, the charcoal seller in Bai Juyi's "The Charcoal Seller" worked hard to pull a cart of more than a thousand kilograms of charcoal to the market to sell. In the end, he was blackmailed by the "yellow messenger Bai Shan'er" and only got "half a piece of charcoal". One foot of red silk silk." If you want to continue writing through imagination, you can infer how disappointed his wife and children were when the charcoal seller returned home, and how the family struggled in pain due to hunger and cold... You can't imagine that after the charcoal seller took away his cart of charcoal, , furious, chased after him, fought with the "yellow messenger in white shirt", and was finally whipped to death. It cannot be assumed that the charcoal seller thought it was okay after getting this "half red silk and one foot long silk". It is undoubtedly ridiculous to go home and start a small business based on this.
But articles like "After the Apple was bitten..." are more special. The author of the proposition leaves a wide space for the author's imagination. It is up to the author to imagine which characters the article involves and how the story will develop. As long as the author does not violate common sense in life and the theme of the work has a positive meaning, no matter how you check the imagination, regarded as reasonable. In addition to imagination, the thinking activity of continuing to write a proposition composition is also reflected in speculation. Speculation is more complicated than imagination because it incorporates a lot of judgment. The speculation in the continuation-type proposition composition is mainly to speculate on the development, climax and ending of the plot from the beginning of the plot, and to speculate on what and how people or things will do in a specific situation from the character's personality.
For example, in the continuation of the composition "After an artificially fed parrot flew out of the cage...", the following speculation should be made: What did the parrot think after it flew out of the cage? Are you coveting the pampered life in front of you, or are you going to fly far away to seek a new life? If it's the former, it will wander around the cage it "loves" and then return to the cage...; if it's the latter, there are two possibilities: one is rebirth, the other is dejected death - of course There is also this possibility: first enjoying the joy of freedom, seeking new life, and then losing courage and confidence after suffering setbacks, becoming the plaything of the new owner again...
It is speculated that it appears in the creation of narrative literary works. Particularly important. An important aspect of writers' creative thinking ability is that they are good at speculation and are good at further imagining the relationship between characters, inferring plot development, and predicting the fate of characters based on their own life observations, experiences, and thinking. 5. When continuing to write, do you need to copy the content of the original article?
No
Long story short
To continue writing means starting from the original article and following the original idea. , an extension of the original text. Before continuing writing, it is important to read the original text thoroughly so that you are familiar with the plot, accurately grasp the characters, and thoroughly understand the purpose of the full text. Only in this way can the continued part be connected with the original text and integrated into one.
For example:
If the original text is mainly about narratives, the continuation should be a natural extension of the events. Keep the central event unchanged, that is, follow the original narrative perspective and continue to write a new plot around the central event.
If the original text is mainly about characters, the character traits of the continued part must be consistent with the original text. Even if the character's personality develops and changes, it must be reasonable.
Benefits of continuing writing:
Continuing writing is conducive to cultivating association and imagination 6. How to give full play to the great role of small pen practice
1. According to the teaching materials. Suiwen Lianbi
(1) Imitation
Imitation is characterized by strong pertinence and rules to follow, which not only reduces the difficulty of learning, but also achieves obvious results. Therefore, imitation is a basic way to give full play to the role of small pen practice. For students in lower grades, we should actively encourage imitation. Even if the imitation is relatively mechanical at first, it should be affirmed. For example, the article "Kingfisher" describes the kingfisher's beautiful appearance, agile movements, clear structure and vivid language. After finishing this lesson, I asked the students to imitate the text and write about an animal they like, and also write about it in terms of appearance and movement. The students were very interested and most of them were able to imitate it very successfully.
(2) Continuation
Continuation starts from the original text, follows the original text’s ideas, and extends the original text.
Continuing writing practice not only promotes students' understanding of the text content, but also helps cultivate students' imagination. In class, students can use the end point of the original text as the starting point for continuation, start associations, and conceive new plots. For example, Bing Xin's "A Little Bird" describes a fledgling bird singing on a branch every day. The children hit the bird with a slingshot, and two old birds caught it and took it back to the nest. inside. Later, students can continue to write about what the children thought, said, and did, and what the fate of the bird was, based on their own imagination and understanding of the text. This kind of small writing practice can create a free writing atmosphere for students and make the class active, lively and open.
In addition to the above two small writing methods, there are also methods such as abbreviation, expansion, rewriting of ancient poems, and writing after reading. Teachers should combine reading and writing, grasp the key points, and organically introduce pen practice into the classroom.
2. Observe life and practice writing randomly
Mr. Ye Shengtao said: "Life is like a source, and articles are like streams. The sources are rich but not exhausted, and the streams are naturally lively and flowing." Therefore. , we should guide students to be thoughtful people in life, and tell students to pay attention to everything and learn from it.
(1) Use special weather to practice pen writing
In special weather, students can write about what they see, hear, and feel, and let students practice pen writing to record their opinions. The perceptual experience of life. If it rains heavily, you can ask students to write a paragraph starting with "It's raining really hard!" or they can carefully observe the weather changes and write an article with the title "Raining". In this way, by taking advantage of the weather to make a fuss, students' writing ability will also be exercised invisibly.
(2) Use emergencies to practice writing
Emergencies can be conflicts between classmates in the school, or they can also occur between family members in life. Interesting stories can also be national or world events. Let students practice writing in time, write down these emergencies, and express their own opinions on the events, thereby helping students develop the habit of diligent observation and thinking.
(3) Use festivals to practice writing
The festival is here, and students can feel the festive atmosphere firsthand. For example, during the Spring Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, and Mother's Day, students can record what they saw and heard on that day and what they thought and felt.
Xiao Lian Bi Xiao Yi can train students' language expression ability, and enable students to accumulate and learn various language expressions, paragraph structures, article composition, etc. Giving full play to the role of small pen practice can stimulate students' interest in writing, consolidate students' writing foundation, and improve students' writing ability. 7. Is it necessary to write questions for Chinese continuation compositions?
1. Compositions must learn to accumulate " The ancients summarized the importance of "accumulation" in writing from both positive and negative aspects.
"Rely on accumulation in daily life, and rely on performance in the examination room." This is the common experience of students in the examination room. (1) In terms of language, a "vocabulary library" must be established.
Vocabulary is the cell of the article. Vocabulary in a broad sense refers not only to the collection of words and phrases, but also to sentences and sentence groups.
There are two ways to build a "vocabulary": the first is reading. You should read extensively books, newspapers and periodicals, and take notes on your reading. Excerpt some beautiful words, sentences, and passages in a specific book, or make reading cards.
The second is life. Usually, you should capture the vivid language spoken by the public and write down these words in a small notebook or card that you carry with you. In this way, over time, you will be able to speak well and write wonderfully in your compositions.
(2) It is necessary to strengthen the accumulation of materials. Materials are the flesh and blood of the article.
Because many students don’t pay attention to accumulating materials, they make up or plagiarize every time they write. The way to solve this problem is to accumulate materials.
If possible, you can bring a video camera and tape recorder to observe life in depth, actively participate in life, and record family life, campus life, and social life in a timely manner through sketching, diary writing, observation notes, etc. experiences in. When recording, you should grasp the details and grasp the characteristics of people, things, objects and scenery.
In this way, the articles written will have flesh and blood. (3) Strengthen ideological accumulation.
Point of view is the soul of the article. If the center of the article is not clear or the intention is not profound, it often indicates that the author is shallow in thinking.
Therefore, it is necessary to establish a "think tank". There are two methods: first, think well.
"The more you think, the more you gain." You should think deeply at ordinary times and ask "why", "what" and "how" when encountering problems.
In this way, we can see the essence through the phenomenon. You should also record the "sparks" of your thinking and the conclusions of your thinking at any time.
The second is to compile, that is, to excerpt famous quotes, aphorisms, etc. In short, we must strengthen the accumulation of compositions and establish three major writing warehouses: "vocabulary library", "material library" and "thought library". They must be regularly inventoried, sorted and classified into categories, and they must be continuously enriched and expanded.
2. To write a good composition, you must first learn to observe. Mr. Lu Xun emphasized two points when answering the question of "how to write a good article" by literary youths: first, read more, and second, practice more. “See more” here means observe more.
This means: to write good articles and master skilled article writing techniques, you must observe more and learn to observe. Observation is the necessary prerequisite and foundation for writing. The Russian novelist Chekhov earnestly warned beginners: "A writer must train himself to become an observer with a keen eye and never give up! - He must train himself until observation becomes a habit, as if it becomes second nature. ”
Turning observation into a habit and second nature is a skill that takes time to hone. It is very effective and a great skill. You should pay attention to the people, things, scenery, and objects around you to obtain the materials you need for your composition: you should become interested in things that may not seem big but are actually very meaningful, and pay attention to the causes, processes, and results; you should Pay attention to how the plants in the campus flower beds change their colors throughout the year, and learn to inquire deeply to understand the ins and outs of these changes; you have to go out into the society, contact more people, observe their words and deeds, and think about something at any time. Merge them into the long river of your own thoughts.
This is the process of observation. During the observation process, you should pay attention to the following points: (1) Observation should never be limited to "seeing with your eyes". Observation in a broad sense and with more practical significance means mobilizing all the five senses of a person: listening with ears, feeling with body, and more importantly, thinking with heart and brain, so that such observation will be more delicate and profound. .
(2) Pay attention to the good use of "bad pen" during the observation process. As the saying goes: A good memory is worse than a bad writing.
Many students see a lot every day and think a lot, but they are not good at writing it down at any time. This will make the observed material go to waste and many valuable things will be wasted. Wasted. (3) Pay special attention to perseverance in observation.
Don’t suffer from "brain fever". Three minutes of heat is not beneficial to writing a good composition. You must observe and think about life throughout every day of your life, so that you can write Come out with wonderful articles and excellent works. Learning to observe has a huge foundation and impetus for writing good compositions. Without observation, you will often find it difficult to write.
I hope you can learn to observe, continuously cultivate and improve your observation skills, and make great progress in your writing practice. 3. If the idea is high, the writing will be successful. To establish the idea is to establish the center and intention of the article.
So what issues should we pay attention to when writing an article? (1) The purpose of an article must be correct and correct. Correctness means ensuring that the feelings and thoughts of the article are correct, in line with the nature and laws of objective things, in line with my country’s basic political principles, in line with the basic moral requirements of human beings, and in line with the basic moral requirements of human beings. Give people positive inspiration. (2) The purpose of writing must be specific. "Composition is more important than specificity. Specificity makes skillful, and divergence makes people stupid."
No matter how complicated the matter is, the main idea cannot be scattered. If an article wants to explain this issue and that point of view at the same time, and rambles on, the purpose will inevitably be unclear.
In fact, if you want to cover everything, you will definitely miss the point. Moreover, an article can only have one center. Instead of "biting off more than you can chew", it is better to concentrate on expressing one center, even if it is through several things. To express the center, we must also adhere closely to the center of the text, with consistent goals, focusing on the connection point between the material and the center, so that all the power contained in the material is directed toward the center. (3) The purpose of the article must be novel. The most taboo thing about an article is to follow others' opinions and follow what others say. A novel perspective is the core of innovation in composition.
Novel ideas require jumping out of the old box, not following conventional thinking, habitual thinking or original mental stereotypes, but using a unique perspective to examine the alternative content contained in the topic and avoid Open what others often write and write what others have not written. Even the same writing object can always be approached from many angles, as long as we break the stereotypes of thinking, stand at the height of the times, avoid the "conventional" and pursue the "different", think from multiple angles and sides, or associate, expand, or make analogies , or in the opposite direction, where people have not yet done anything, they can be colorful.
