Wen/Guan Xin 'an [No.1 Senior Middle School in Funing County, Jiangsu Province]
Mo Yan became angry, and along with him, there was his hometown: five adobe houses became famous overnight, and even the carrots in the small courtyard became famous gradually, and they often became "guests" under the media lens. Unfortunately, in less than a few days, all the radishes in this yard have been pulled out by tourists, which is really ironic!
what do you think this carrot can do besides eating? It's not like a celebrity's signature or something that can be collected. At most, it can be made into "dried carrots", right? But the visitor just pulled them all out. Is it a temporary thirst?
at first glance, it's ridiculous, but if you think about it carefully, you will realize something, which is actually caused by the "celebrity effect". People in China have always said that they are "immortal", so it is not difficult to understand this strange behavior of tourists: they are too eager for success, so they hope to be immortal with Mo Yan and replicate his success, and carrots are just the "color" they ask Mo Yan for.
the celebrity effect is not up to us. However, there is an old saying: extremes meet. Take the book burning guide, which is popular on the Internet recently, as an example. Ma Boyong asked himself and answered: If you were forced to hide in the library because of a once-in-a-lifetime extreme cold, what book would you burn first? Success studies, inspirational books, life health books and star autobiographies are the first choice. It is not difficult to find out the essence:
In this age of success or failure, people are eager for success, and they can do whatever it takes for the so-called success. How can the success secrets of those professors not be hot?
In this era of declining ideals and beliefs, people are faced with a lost life, eager for their passion to be ignited and incited. How can self-help books not be hot?
In this era when it is difficult and expensive to see a doctor, how can books that teach people to maintain health and cure diseases with little or no money not be hot?
In this age of celebrity advertisements and celebrity scandals, how can celebrity autobiography not be hot?
in the past, people focused on collective interests and realized personal value in the process of pursuit. But now? For those who seek fame and gain, only personal value, even personal price, is left. They think that getting rich is success, and promotion is success. As for how wealth is made and how officials are promoted, how many people care? Even making money with a dirty heart and being promoted corruptly can arouse a burst of admiration from people around you … its ugly face can be seen!
As a native of China, I would like to follow the example of Mr. Lu Xun, stand in the forefront of the times, wave flags and shout loudly, and give the world a heavy blow ideologically, so as to arouse the deaf, and I only hope that all people can treat the "celebrity effect" with a cool head and a critical eye. We should neither be eager for it, nor sell ourselves short, but take the road we should and can take. This is the way we should pursue diligently.
Comments on the examination room
There are three highlights in this article: First, the introduction part, which was introduced by Mo Yan as a social hotspot in Nobel Prize in Literature, led to the topic of "influence"; In this part, Ma Boyong's "Book Burning Guide" is taken as a target, and the analysis of peeling bamboo shoots and spinning silk is carried out. Examples can cite the hot spots that everyone on earth focuses on, which can be described as "novel". Secondly, for the four kinds of books that should be burned, the causes of their "heat" are revealed first, and then the essence of "heat" is revealed. The argument can see through the hot material with a cold eye, which can be described as "profound". Third, it was only when Lu Xun's shoulders opened the clouds and pointed out the way, which stirred up the scholar's spirit of "reprimanding Fang Qiu" and the student's heroism of reincarnating. On the basis of breaking the "impossible", the writing can also establish "should be", which can be described as "atmosphere"
