teaching process
First, import:
Under my punishment system, I believe everyone is right about Haizi? Facing the sea, spring blossoms? No stranger. Let's recall it together. Today, I want to introduce someone to you. He has nothing to look forward to more than Haizi. He is Thoreau of America. How to understand it depends on today's article "A Drop of God".
Second, the author profile:
Thoreau, an American writer, was born in Concord, Massachusetts, USA on July 2007 18 12. 1833- 1837 studied at Harvard University and taught in his hometown for two years. Then he lived in Ralph, a great writer and thinker? Waldo. The Emerson family (184 1- 1843) began to write as disciples and assistants. 1845, he took an axe and ran into the forest near Walden Lake, which is an uninhabited place in the state. He lived alone until 1847 before returning to Cannes. In 1849, he wrote a book called A Week on the Concord and Merrimack Rivers. 1854, Walden Lake was published. At first, the response of this book was not great, but with the passage of time, the influence became greater and greater. 1862 died in Cannes at the age of 44. He left 39 volumes of diaries and many editions and anthologies have been published. This American writer is recognized as a writer who accompanies loneliness.
There is an inscription by Thoreau in the book:? I don't want to write an ode to depression/I want to imagine a rooster announcing the dawn in his habitat/boasting/even if it's just to remind the neighbors. ?
Third, because everyone is not very familiar with Thoreau and his works, so I picked some comments from celebrities, let's take a quick look:
1, Emerson (famous American writer and thinker)
The United States still doesn't know, at least, how great a national it has lost. This seems to be a sin, so that he left before the work was completely completed, and no one could finish it for him; This seems to be an insult to such a noble soul. No matter where you are, as long as you have knowledge, morality and love beauty, you must be his loyal reader.
2. White (20th century American essayist)
I remember being ecstatic when I watched it. Many years ago, in a period of hesitation and despair, it brought me back. Thoreau's Walden is still timely and timely today. In our unstable season, when everyone is unconsciously looking for a secluded place from a completely out of control world, his cabin in Concord Forest is a safe haven.
3.george? Eliot (a famous British woman writer)
Walden is a wonderful book. Serious pollution makes people lose the tranquility of the countryside, so Thoreau's works are read and missed by the whole world.
4. Xu Chi (a famous poet in China, translator of Walden)
Walden is a quiet book, a very quiet book, not a lively book. This is a lonely book, a lonely book. Just one person's book. Walden's language is amazing, and the words are flashing, which makes people feel the same and touches my heart. In the dead of night, when everything is silent, this book is not obscure, clear and clear, and people can't help but be fascinated by it.
Taste the following key sentences, communicate in groups and choose representatives to speak. (Key sentences are projected)
1. The lake is the most beautiful and expressive image in natural scenery. It is the eye of the earth; The beholder can measure the depth of his own nature.
Clear: In the author's mind, Walden Lake is beautiful, rich, quiet, broad and full of spirituality, so he sincerely calls it? The most beautiful and expressive person in the landscape? And then what? The eyes of the earth? . In the sentence? Natural? Refers to human nature. Thoreau believes that for a long time, human's natural nature has been suppressed by an increasingly complex society and concealed by expanding desires. Walden Lake is like a mirror, which makes people rediscover and know their true nature.
2. Looking down from the west end, it looks like an amphitheater, where you can perform mountain and forest stage plays on the water. Clear: Walden Lake looks like an amphitheater from the height at the western end, and the surrounding mountains and scenery are reflected in the clear lake, like a drama.
In those days, laziness was the most tempting thing, so I spent many mornings like this. I'd rather waste the most precious time of the day like this. I have money, although it has nothing to do with money, because I have sunny days and summer months, and I squander it.
Clear:? Since many radii can be drawn from the center of the circle, there are many lifestyles for us to choose from. ? In the author's view, such a life is his own.
If my muse is silent, she is excusable. The forest was cut down. How can she expect birds to sing?
Clear:: Explain. Analogy.
Appreciation of verb (abbreviation of verb) landscape writing skills and language style
1. What are the characteristics of this article?
Analysis: Good at using figurative rhetoric. Just now, the author compared the lake to a landscape. The most beautiful and expressive look? Say it, right? The eyes of the earth? . Or in paragraph 1, the author regards the trees by the lake as? Eyelash-like wrapping? Surrounded by dense forests? Mountains and cliffs? Is it from the lake? Bump eyebrows? . These metaphors vividly describe the vivid modality of the lake scenery.
The language of this article has a unique charm. Although it is a literary language, it is really simple. Even those figurative metaphors, American humor, are flashy, showing a concise and meaningful. Let's read some places that I think are unique. (1) Section 1; (2) Section 2? One summer morning, I woke up like a dream until the boat hit the beach and alarmed me, so I got up to see where fate had pushed me. ; (3) Section III? This demonic iron horse, the sound of breaking people's eardrums has spread all over the town. It muddy the boiling spring water with its dirty steps. Did it devour the trees on the banks of the Waal River? ; (4) Section 5? Of course, this lake is the work of the brave, and there is no hypocrisy in it! He surrounded the lake with his hands, deepened and clarified it in his mind and passed it on to Concord in his will. I saw the same reflection on its water. I almost said, Walden, is that you?
Sixth, thinking
A tear of God is also a tear of God. What is the difference between God's tears and human's tears?
Clear: God's tears flow for the world, which is objectively rebirth and reincarnation. And people's tears are for themselves, selfish and hypocritical.
Seven. supplement
Thoreau had some wonderful remarks: Can a person's relative identity be maintained without clothes? This is an interesting question. Without clothes, can you tell me exactly who belongs to the noblest class of civilized people? Many kings frantically preserved a large number of carefully carved stones, hoping to make themselves eternal. What if they use these ideas to carve their own ideas? A rational thing is more memorable than a tall monument. ? When we read these words flashing with wisdom, our hearts will be suddenly enlightened.
In ancient western mythology, there were nine beautiful and clever girls on Mount Olympus. They are the daughters of Zeus, the Lord of the gods, and the goddess of memory. They are nine muses divided into love, wisdom, music, poetry, drama, dance, philosophy, astronomy and mathematics. People collectively call them muses. In ancient Greek mythology, the origin of music is shrouded in a mysterious color. Legend has it that Apollo was in charge of music, with nine muses Zeus and nine daughters of the goddess of memory, each in charge of different kinds of art.

The first is the introduction of Walden Lake.
(Projection: Photo of Thoreau, Walden Lake and Lake House)
If a person is insatiable in the pursuit of material life, he becomes a slave, a slave trapped in the quagmire of material desires. 1On July 4th, 845, Thoreau came to Walden Lake, two miles away from Concord, with an axe in his hand, to inspect his lifestyle and mental state. There, he worked independently, supported himself, and lived a secluded life with extremely simple material life and extremely rich spiritual life. On the bank of Walden Lake, after work, I often face the lakes and mountains and feel the true meaning of life in the morning and evening of the four seasons. He recorded these sights and feelings and wrote a book Walden Lake. This book received little response at first, but later it became famous and became a world literary classic.

3. It has not changed itself, and it is still the lake I saw when I was young; I've changed.
Clear: This sentence is simple, but meaningful, lamenting the tranquility and eternity of Walden Lake. In contrast, earthly life is short, changeable and illusory.
Appreciation of verb (abbreviation of verb) landscape writing skills and language style
1. Landscape writing is an important part of Walden. What are the characteristics of this article?
Analysis: First of all, be good at using figurative rhetoric. Just now, the author compared the lake to a landscape. The most beautiful and expressive look? Say it, right? The eyes of the earth? . Or in paragraph 1, the author regards the trees by the lake as? Eyelash-like wrapping? Surrounded by dense forests? Mountains and cliffs? Is it from the lake? Bump eyebrows? . These metaphors vividly describe the vivid modality of the lake scenery. Secondly, he is good at changing the lens and using different ways, such as distant view, close view, dynamic, static, panoramic and close-up, to show the richness and charm of Walden Lake from multiple angles. The scenery described in this paper is very natural, realistic and vivid because the author does not write scenery for the sake of scenery, but out of his love for nature.
The language of this article is very attractive, with examples.
Analysis: The language of this article is simple and natural. Even those figurative metaphors and American humor abandon glitz and appear real and natural. These simple languages are even more concise and meaningful. For example,? One summer morning, I woke up like a dream until the boat hit the beach and alarmed me, so I got up to see where fate had pushed me. Park Su-su's description of words and details contains endless philosophical thinking. We see that at the end of the article, Walden Lake is called by the author? A drop of god? This passage can also be said to be a clear spring flowing from Thoreau's heart, which makes people suddenly touch the author's distant feelings of life.
Sixth, thinking and feeling
1. Some people say that Thoreau's idle life by Walden Lake is a waste of time, but Thoreau believes in himself? Is money, even though it has nothing to do with money? ,? When the sun shines, the sun and moon in summer? I can splurge and have no regrets. What do you think after watching a drop of God?
In fact, the greatest happiness in life is not the possession of great wealth, but the enrichment and freedom of the soul. People who are addicted to fame and wealth and material comforts often feel tired, bored and empty. In his spare time, Thoreau faced the beautiful scenery of Walden Lake, reveled in it and set his mind free. His life has become moist and rich. Thoreau said that a wonderful experience in an instant is more memorable than a monument as high as the moon. ? Moreover, only by getting rid of the complicated secularism can we really look back at our lifestyle and mentality and know our inner needs.
2. On the beautiful Walden Lake, there is a Thoreau Memorial Hall, where an endless stream of tourists come every day. How do you feel if you come to this long-awaited place? Please write a message of about 100 words in the memorial guest book.
Reference: With the development of modern industrial civilization, the instrumental rationality in human consciousness is expanding day by day, the violation of nature is becoming more and more wanton, the pursuit of material life is becoming more and more greedy, and people have become slaves of material desires. Thoreau's simple seclusion in harmony with nature by Walden Lake is undoubtedly a blow to those who are addicted to the desire for survival. Thoreau told the world with his own personal practice that people can get the greatest happiness and spiritual satisfaction through the most frugal lifestyle.
