At the dawn of the last century, in a wooden house with lights on in the countryside of Paris, Gustav Flaubert wrote a letter to his close friend: "I work hard, take a bath every day, don't receive visitors, don't read newspapers, and watch the sunrise on time (like now). I worked late into the night, the window was open, I didn't wear a coat, and I was in the silent study ... "
"Watch the sunrise on time", I suddenly tripped over this sentence.
A world writer who vows to "write on the wall", a person who is so stingy with time but thinks about "sunrise" every day, regards the ordinary sunrise as a grand event and a compulsory course to meet the sunrise ... Why?
It woke me up like a basin of water, and I was so excited all over.
I tried my best to imagine and simulate the scene and meditated and tasted it for a long time-
Accompanying you are newly awakened trees, slightly salty wind, glassy grass leaves, moist earthy breath, crisp birdsong, fruity air ... and shining river belts in the distance, mist on the shore, blooming Lingxiao, purple or light blue morning glory, faint trembling thorns, moonlight hanging on the treetops, as thin as eggshells.
In the sense of words, night means "stopping" and "gestating"; Sunrise symbolizes a kind of "birth", a kind of "flag raising" and "beginning", which is a word full of movement, juice and youth. It means that your life photo album has added a new page number and your physical battery is full of new heat.
Just as childbirth does not repeat, so does the sunrise. It refuses plagiarism and similarity, because it is the most valued art and masterpiece of nature.
Dawn, with the purest, freshest and most exciting light in a day, is the most inspiring moment in life, the most confident and eager moment, and the most youthful and illusory moment. Like a divine crystal ball, it awakens our initial impression of life, awakens some sleeping cells in the body, and shows us distant things, things we almost forgot, dreams, light, vitality and roads. ...
Meeting the dawn is not only a sensory pleasure, but also a spiritual experience; It is not only people's appreciation of nature, but also a round of impact of nature on life with its magical power. It means an encounter, which gives us a chance to look at life once, to look at ourselves seriously, and to have a more delicate and fresh feeling for the individual. It means a baptism, a ceremony of being illuminated and bathed, giving life a new index, a new perception, a new flash of thought, enlightenment and discovery. ...
"Watching the sunrise on time" is a sign of a healthy and active life and a sign of bright spirit! It not only represents a life attitude, but also embodies a concept of loving life, a philosophy of life and spiritual aesthetics.
By the orange morning light, I touched a beautiful silhouette: a person is raising the flag for his own life!
1. From the first paragraph on, Flaubert used this as an excuse to "work hard" and "don't entertain guests and read newspapers" in order to put an end to all the waste of time. Why does he watch the sunrise on time? Can you sum up at least three reasons from the following reading? (3 points)
1. Sunrise is the most inspiring moment in life, which can increase confidence and desire.
2. Meeting the morning light is not only a sensory pleasure, but also a spiritual experience.
3. Watching the sun gives us a chance to look at life, a chance to look at ourselves seriously, and a more delicate and fresh feeling for the individual.
Sunrise gives life a new index, new perception, new flash, enlightenment and discovery. ...
