1. Brief description of the text.
Once you read the subject, you can't help but think of Lu Xun's Kong Eji's words, "Stealing books is not stealing". Kong Eji "theft" is the book, and this article "theft" is read, the interest is very different. Read the text, we will be with this timidly hiding in the middle of adults, hurry and greedily read the little girl, to experience the reading of sore legs and waist numbness, hungry labor, experience worry, panic and fear of pain, experience surprise, joy and satisfaction of happiness. The complexity of this spiritual and physical feelings, is precisely the hundred flavors of reading. The text takes "eavesdropping" as a clue, rushing to the bookstore after school and leaving at night in the chronological order and inserting two scenes of hiding in the many customers and reading on a rainy day, which delicately and vividly depicts the unique feelings and complex flavors of eavesdropping. The author's book,
My Love of Reading and My Longing for Knowledge, is a great example of how the author's love of reading and his desire to learn more about the world can be realized.
The author is good at portraying his state of mind and expressing his feelings through self-talking monologues, such as, "Ah, here it is! It's here, it's not where it was yesterday", to express the surprise of finally realizing that the book is not sold out and can be read again; "Like hiding under the eaves, you're always too embarrassed to drive me away", to take advantage of the "rainy day, stay away from the guest day". Using such a natural excuse as "It's raining, it's staying", I comfort myself and read happily in the bookstore, which is a little childish and a little weird. In the atmosphere of "reading in secret", on the one hand, enjoy the pleasure of reading, on the other hand, we have to pay attention to the surrounding environment, a very vivid and vivid expression of "my" mood changes, so that people like to experience the situation.
In addition, the author is also good at using detailed action descriptions to express his feelings. For example, "I stepped through the door of the store, secretly delighted that no one was paying attention. Tiptoeing through the armpits of adults. Yo, messed up my short hair, it doesn't matter, I finally squeezed inside." This series of action descriptions, written out of the bookstore customers, but also shows that "I" to read a lot of hunger.
The purpose of this text is to guide students to grasp the main content, the author's love of reading, the desire for knowledge; secondly, in the reading of the author's experience through the action and psychological activities, the taste of "stealing readings" specific writing; thirdly, the love of reading infected, stimulate the interest in reading, and through the comprehensive study to strengthen. The comprehensive study to make it strengthened.
2. The words and phrases are analyzed.
(1) The understanding of sentences.
①Hastily opening the book, one page, two pages, I read greedily like a hungry wolf.
"Greedy" means insatiable and unsatisfied. This sentence is an extremely vivid image of a metaphor -- will be full of reading desire "I" compared to a hungry wolf, page after page of voracious reading is like a hungry wolf eating. I have written a strong desire to learn, the desire to read.
②I am very happy and very afraid - the taste of this kind of reading!
This sentence is the central sentence of the text, focusing on summarizing the hundred feelings of reading, but also the author's emotions are concentrated. "I was eager to read, but could not afford to buy, so I had to "steal". But the so-called "stealing" is nothing more than reading without buying. "I feel the wisdom and happiness brought by the books in reading, but I am always afraid of being reprimanded and driven away by the clerk or the boss. The attraction and indulgence of the world of books, the worry and tension of the world outside the books, intertwining the happiness and fear, forming a complex and ineffable feeling, which is exactly the taste of stealing books.
③I sometimes have to pretend to frown and look at the center of the street from time to time, as if to say, "This rain, causing me not to return." In fact, my heart shouted happily, "Bigger! Bigger!"
This sentence through the fretful expression and happy inner contrast description, interestingly written "I" for the rainy day can have a good reason to read and happy, more show "I" on the love of reading.
④I closed the book and gulped down a mouthful of saliva, as if I had swallowed all the wisdom, before I reluctantly put the book back on the shelf.
The author used "swallowed a mouthful of saliva" such an action, wrote out at this time "I" despite the sore legs and feet, hungry, but in more than two hours of reading after a sense of satisfaction, a sense of fulfillment. This reading is like a spiritual feast, harvest knowledge and wisdom.
⑤At this time, I always think of the words of our Mandarin teacher encouraging us, "Remember, you grow up eating, and you grow up reading!"
"Eating and growing up" refers to the physical needs of the body, while "reading and growing up" refers to spiritual growth, the growth of the mind. Food feeds the body, but books feed the soul. A person who is growing in knowledge and wisdom is a person who is growing in health.
(2) Understanding of words.
Suitable: suitable, appropriate. The text refers to the bookstore is crowded, no one noticed me in this environment and I only read not to buy the theft of reading behavior is suitable.
Knowing what's good for you: knowing what's good for you and not being annoying. Here it means that I know that it is often annoying to read but not to buy, and whenever I sense a change in the attitude of the clerks in the bookstore, I put down the book and leave.
Hungry: hungry stomach growling.
Daydreaming: a metaphor for unrealizable whims. The text is saying that the author, in the midst of standing and reading hard on a hungry stomach, also fantasizes about being able to have money; the demand is not high, except that he can eat a bowl of noodles and sit down to read comfortably again. This is the simplest of needs for a poor student as difficult to realize as "daydreaming".
Yi yi bu xie: to be fond of, not to bear to part with.

Four, teaching cases
Segment 1:
Taste the taste of reading
Teacher: the author said, "I am very happy, but also very afraid of the taste of reading". Is this taste good? Please tell us about your own experience in relation to the statements you drew to describe the action and mental activity.
Student: I realized from the author's action that it is happy to read in secret. After school, I "hurried to catch up", "stepped into the door of the store, stood on tiptoe, and passed under the armpits of the adults", "finally squeezed inside", and "searched eagerly", all of which indicate that the author was happy to steal books. searching", all show that she especially wanted to read this book. Of course, it's a pleasure to read a book that you love so much. I am especially happy when I read a book I have been looking forward to for a long time.
Student: I think from these actions that stealing reading is really too tiring, and she has to stand all the time, so her legs are sore and her feet are numb.
Teacher: students read from the same statements in different feelings, should be so reading. What are the other flavors of stealing reading?
Student: and she came after school and kept reading for more than two hours, how hungry.
Sheng: I also think that this kind of eavesdropping isn't good because she's also constantly on her toes. You see, she had to hide herself and stick close to an adult, pretending to be his little sister or daughter. How embarrassing it would be if that person was annoying! You also have to watch your face, and you have to go to several bookstores to read a book.
Sheng: Also, even though she could have a good reason to stay in the bookstore on a rainy day, she couldn't concentrate on her reading, and she had to pretend to frown and look down the street from time to time. How tiring!
Teacher: Yes, worried and afraid, tired and hungry, this kind of eavesdropping is really unbearable. But the author is still happy, happy and where does it come from? Please read the text again carefully to find a deep-seated reasons.
Sheng: "I closed the book and gulped down a mouthful of saliva, as if I had swallowed all the wisdom, before I reluctantly put the book back on the shelf." The author obviously didn't eat anything, but she swallowed a mouthful of saliva, she must have gained a lot of knowledge and wisdom from the book and was very happy. I think this is the source of the joy she felt.
Teacher: Yes, this kind of spiritual fulfillment is not only joyful, but also happy. That's why she said, "My feet are a little numb from standing, but I am relaxed."
Student: "Remember, you grew up eating and reading." Her teacher said that reading grows you up, so with all the books the author read while eavesdropping, I think she would be smarter and more mature than her own classmates.
Teacher: Yes, reading can not only increase knowledge, broaden the horizons and open the wisdom, but also make a person grow up. From your experience, I not only feel that the taste of the five flavors of stealing reading, but also understand the true meaning of reading. The following to read the text emotionally, to further feel the author's love of reading and desire for knowledge.
Segment 2:
Sense of writing
Teacher: Some students say that the text is written like a diary real touching. So, where do you think it is well written?
Student: I like the 2nd natural paragraph. The author writes about her own mental activities, with quotation marks to cause, but also directly written out, and this paragraph alone writes about flashbacks, at ease and worried about the transformation of several different moods. These moods are all because she is so eager to continue reading that book.
Teacher: You have noticed the author's description of complex mental activities. Indeed, all of these moods stemmed from the desire to read the book. Can you read this feeling?
(Students read aloud the 2nd natural paragraph with feeling)
Teacher: Do you know why he reads what is in his heart so slowly?
Student: because the author is thinking in his mind, kind of like talking to himself, is walking and remembering.
Teacher: Good experience! Everyone try to read this paragraph.
Student: I especially like the 3rd natural paragraph. After reading it, it was as if I saw a little girl struggling to squeeze into the store from among the adults, searching wide-eyed through the books, over and over again, and finally surprised to find the book.
Sheng: I also like this paragraph, you see the author hurriedly "into the store door", because more than one short "on tiptoe", flexible "from the armpits of adults through", the short hair is not a problem to get messed up. I was able to "squeeze through the armpits of the adults" and "squeeze inside" even if my short hair was messed up. I'm not sure if you're going to be able to get a good look at this.
Teacher: How well said! You have noticed the author's detailed description of the action, let us feel the little girl in that strong desire to learn. Please read your favorite passages a few more times to further feel the author's charm of language.
Sheng: I like this sentence best: "Hurriedly opened the book, one page, two pages, I was like a hungry wolf, read greedily." The author compares himself to a hungry wolf, which is too graphic. When a wolf is hungry, it will eat all the time; and the author finally found his favorite book, he is rushing to open the book, reading one page, two pages without stopping, and he is as greedy for the words as a wolf is for the food.
Teacher: How to express his love of reading in a graphic way! There are many more such descriptions, read the passage you find out to everyone.
Segment 3:
Experiencing the significance of stealing books
Teacher: Lu Xun's pedantic literati Kong Yiji once argued that "stealing books is not stealing", and now let's also discuss, "stealing books" is considered "stealing"? "Stealing books is not stealing". Please read the text carefully and find your own basis.
Student: I think it should be counted. Because a bookstore is a place where books are sold, and the author himself said, "I'm afraid there is no one who frequents it as often as I do but never buys it".
Student: I don't think it counts as stealing, although the author gained a lot, but the bookstore didn't lose anything.
Sheng: Then why did she hide it and feel fearful and uneasy?
Sheng: Because some people who serve in bookstores are not welcoming to customers who don't have money to buy books. And the author is just a student who really loves to read and has a strong desire to learn, and did not steal anything from the bookstore.
Teacher: The students debated very enthusiastically. And in fact she is not like other readers, only read, not buy, steal books to read. She has said, "But have I stolen anything? I'm just a poor student who can't afford to buy and longs to read that book!" "All because I have no money, I cannot possess the full joy of reading." It can be said that the three words of "The Book of Thievery" are full of fun and full of the author's bitterness.

Expanded Reading
The Book of Stolen Readings (excerpts)
Lin Haiyin
In order to solve the hunger of my stomach, I came up with another good idea: when I came to buy two coins (two coins maybe) of peanuts in my uniform pocket, when the field of wisdom was richly harvested and my stomach pouch was begging for help, I would pull the peanuts out of my pocket and save the day. The caveat was that the peanut skins had to be left in the pocket, and when I got home and turned the pocket over, the finely crushed peanut skins flew down in a snowy pattern.
But after this humiliation, my little heart was traumatized, and my sense of inferiority caused by poverty returned, and I developed a hatred of mankind. Once I happened to read the handwriting of a foreign poetess, which I copied and pasted on my bedside, reading it over and over again in sadness. The little poem says:
I saw a child with eyes full of ardent hope,
opening a book at a bookstall.
Seeing this, the man who set up the bookstall,
quickly greeted the child:
"You've never bought a book before,
so please don't look at books here. "
The child paced slowly sighing,
he wished he had never recognized the alphabet,
he wouldn't be reading this old thing's books.
The poor have so many afflictions,
that the rich have never tasted.
I soon saw another child,
who always had a vegetable color on his face,
and at least that day hadn't eaten anything-
who was enjoying himself with his eyes at the frozen meat in the hotel.
I thought how much more bitter this child must be,
so hungry, thinking, and such a penny for nothing.
Looking in vain at good meat well cooked,
he cannot help wishing that he had not been born to learn to eat.
I stopped going to the bookstore, and many times I walked past Culture Street with a vicious bite. But once, twice, I subconsciously walked toward that familiar street, and finally one day the desire to learn forced me to stop again, and I was still willing to give it a try because of an advertisement for the publication of a new book, which I had known about for many days from the newspapers.
I did my usual trick and hid myself in a corner of the bookstore again. As I turned the first page, I couldn't help but softly exclaim in my mind, "Ah! Meeting you at last!" It was a bestseller, such a thick volume, and how weighty it was to hold in my hand and look at! After the lesson I learned from the previous time, I was more careful not to be greedy, and it would be more appropriate to scurry to a few more bookstores to avoid the embarrassment of the previous time.
Each time I came out of the bookstore, I stumbled and walked out of control as if I were drunk, my mind distracted by the characters in the book. "Come early tomorrow and you can read them all." I told myself. The thought of still being able to take possession of a corner of the bookstore tomorrow made my body, so excited by the joy that I forgot about it, nearly crash into the trunk of a tree.
But the next day, when I walked through several bookstores and could not see the book, as if it had been snatched away from my hands, I fretted and cursed, thinking, "It is all because of my lack of money that I cannot possess all the joy of reading, and there are so many rich people in the world, who have bought up all the books.
I went into the last bookstore in the world with my bag in my hand, in a mood of despair. I was down to my last book when I was here yesterday, but no, my heart sank wholeheartedly when I saw that the place of that book on the shelf had been replaced by another.
As I was doing so, a clerk with a pencil in his ear approached me, looking like he was coming to greet me (how I dread being entertained), and I scrambled to send my eyes up to the shelf, pretending not to see. But a book touched my arm and was gently brought to me, "Please read it, I left it unsold for an extra day."
Ah, I took the book so shyly that I didn't know how I should show my gratitude to him, but he walked away as if nothing had happened. It was an emotion that kept my eyes from falling on the book for a long time.
When the fluorescent lights in the bookstore suddenly came on, I realized I had been standing here reading for two hours. I closed the last page - gulping as if all the wisdom had been swallowed. Then looked up to find the man with the pencil on his ear so he could hand back the book. From the far side of the counter, he gave me a gentle nod to indicate that he already knew I was done reading, and I silently put the book back on the shelf.
I walked out with my head down, my black wrinkled cloth skirt blowing away in the wind like a broken umbrella that couldn't be stretched, but I was all loose. Feeling in my pocket was a packet of peanuts that I had forgotten to eat, I took a peanut and put it in my mouth, suddenly remembering the words of Mr. Guowen who once encouraged us to study hard:
"Remember, you grow up eating, and you grow up reading!"
But today I realized that this sentence is not enough, it should be said like this:
"Remember, you grow up eating, you grow up reading, and you grow up in love!"
