1、Charles John Huffam Dickens查尔斯·狄更斯(Victorian Novelists)

(1812-1870)

2)、Dickens’Artistic Technique 艺术手法

1. Dickens has a tendency to depict the grotesque (very odd or unusual, fantastically ugly or absurd) characters or events.

2. Dickens loves to instill life into inanimate things and to compare animate beings to inanimate things.

3. Dickens is noted for his description of pathetic scenes that aim to arouse people’s sympathy.

The most popular and influential English novelist of the Victorian era, Charles Dickens remains as popular today as he ever was, and was responsible for some of the greatest literature in the English language, and for creating some of its most iconic characters.

Many of his novels, with their recurrent concern for social reform, first appeared in magazines in serialised form, a popular format at the time. Unlike other authors who completed entire novels before serialisation, Dickens often created the episodes as they were being serialized. The practice lent his stories a particular rhythm, punctuated by cliffhangers to keep the public looking forward to the next instalment. The continuing popularity of his novels and short stories is such that they have never gone out of print.

Dickens became a well-known personality, his novels proved immensely popular during his lifetime. His first full novel, The Pickwick Papers (1837), brought him immediate fame, and this success continued throughout his career.

Dickens continues to be one of the best known and most read of English authors, and at least 180 motion pictures and TV adaptations based on Dickens's works help confirm his success. Many of his works were adapted for the stage during his own lifetime and as early as 1913 a silent film of The Pickwick Papers was made. His characters were often so memorable that they took on a life of their own outside his books. Gamp became a slang expression for an umbrella from the character Mrs. Gamp and Pickwickian, Pecksniffian, and Gradgrind all entered dictionaries due to Dickens's original portraits of such characters who were quixotic, hypocritical, or emotionlessly logical. Sam Weller, the carefree and irreverent valet of The Pickwick Papers, was an early superstar, perhaps better known than his author at first.

It is likely that A Christmas Carol stands as his best-known story, with new adaptations almost every year. It is also the most-filmed of Dickens's stories, with many versions dating from the early years of cinema. The term Scrooge became a synonym for miser, with 'Bah! Humbug!' dismissive of the festive spirit. A Tale of Two Cities is Dickens best selling novel. Since its inaugural publication in 1859, the novel has sold over 200 million copies, and is among the most famous works of fiction.

Dickens highlighted the life of the forgotten poor and disadvantaged and condemned the public officials and institutions that not only allowed abuses to exist, but flourished as a result. His most strident indictment of this condition is in Hard Times (1854). His writings inspired others, in particular journalists and political figures, to address such problems of class oppression; the prison scenes in The Pickwick Papers are claimed to have been influential in having the Fleet Prison shut down.

Such was his influence, that Victorian society (1837 - 1901) is often universally termed "Dickensian‖.

2、George Bernard Shaw萧伯纳(1856—1950)

代表作:Widowers’Houses

Mrs. Warren’s Profession

Canadida

Arms and Man

Caesar and Cleopatra

The Devil’s Disciple

Major Barbara (1905)

Pygmalion (1912)

Heartbreak House (1917)

The Apple Cart (1930)

Too True to Be Good (1932)

生平:(是英国20世纪杰出的剧作家。他的喜剧创作为19世纪末和20世纪初英国戏剧的复兴做出了重要贡献。萧伯纳出生在爱尔兰首府都柏林一个破落的清教贵族家庭,从小感受的是没落和贫困的气氛。母亲露辛达是个思想解放的女性,因不幸福的婚姻脱离家庭,以后又到伦敦独立谋生。1876年,20岁的萧伯纳放弃了在都柏林的工作,也来到伦敦。他最初的文学尝试是写小说(写成的5部小说都没成功)和撰写文艺与音乐评论。自1895年至1898年,他担任《周六评论》的专栏剧评家,同时参加了中产阶级倾向社会主义的社团——费边社的活动。费边社的政治纲领主张渐进的改革,是改良主义的,萧伯纳思想上深受其影响。

He was an Irish playwright and a co-founder of the London School of Economics. Although his first profitable writing was music and literary criticism, in which capacity he wrote many highly articulate pieces of journalism, his main talent was for drama, and he wrote more than 60 plays. Nearly all his writings address prevailing social problems, but have a vein of comedy which makes their stark themes more palatable. Shaw examined education, marriage, religion, government, health care, and class privilege.

He was most angered by what he perceived as the exploitation of the working class. An ardent socialist, Shaw wrote many brochures and speeches for the Fabian Society. He became an accomplished orator in the furtherance of its causes, which included gaining equal rights for men and women, alleviating abuses of the working class, rescinding private ownership of productive land, and promoting healthy lifestyles. For a short time he was active in local politics, serving on the London County Council.

In 1898, Shaw married Charlotte Payne-Townshend, a fellow Fabian, whom he survived. They settled in Ayot St Lawrence in a house now called Shaw's Corner. Shaw died there, aged 94, from

chronic problems exacerbated by injuries he incurred by falling from a ladder.

He is the only person to have been awarded both a Nobel Prize in Literature (1925) and an Oscar (1938), for his contributions to literature and for his work on the film Pygmalion (adaptation of his play of the same name), respectively.[1] Shaw wanted to refuse his Nobel Prize outright because he had no desire for public honours, but accepted it at his wife's behest: she considered it a tribute to Ireland. He did reject the monetary award, requesting it be used to finance translation of Swedish books into English.

Shaw declined to stand as an MP, but in 1897 he was elected as a local councillor to the London County Council as a Progressive.

Shaw became a critic of the arts when, sponsored by William Archer, he joined the reviewing staff of the Pall Mall Gazette in 1885. He was highly critical of productions of Shakespeare, and specifically denounced the dramatic practice of editing Shakespeare's plays, whose scenes tended to be cut in order to create "acting versions".

3、Thomas Hardy托马斯哈代(1840-1928)(Victorian Novelists)

In his Wessex novels, he vividly and truthfully described the tragic lives of the tenants in the last decade of the 19th century.

代表作:Tess of the d'Urbervilles (1891)

Jude the Obscure (1895)

The Poor Man and the Lady (1867, unpublished and lost)

Under the Greenwood Tree (1872)

Far from the Madding Crowd (1874)

The Return of the Native (1878)

The Mayor of Casterbridge (1886)

The Woodlanders (1887)

Wessex Tales (1888, a collection of short stories)

Life's Little Ironies (1894, a collection of short stories)

Hardy’s pessimism: Hardy was pessimistic in his view of life. His philosophy was that everything in the universe is determined by the Immanent Will, which is present in all parts of the universe and is impartially hostile towards human beings’desire for joy and happiness.

He was an English novelist and poet. While his works typically belong to the Naturalism movement, several poems display elements of the previous Romantic and Enlightenment periods of literature, such as his fascination with the supernatural. While he regarded himself primarily as a poet who composed novels mainly for financial gain, he became and continues to be widely regarded for his novels, such as Tess of the d'Urbervilles and Far from the Madding Crowd. The bulk of his fictional works, initially published as serials in magazines, were set in the semi-fictional county of Wessex (based on the Dorchester region where he grew up) and explored tragic characters struggling against their passions and social circumstances.

Hardy's poetry, first published in his fifties, has come to be as well regarded as his novels and has had a significant influence over modern English poetry, especially after The Movement poets of the 1950s and 1960s cited Hardy as a major figure.

Hardy provides the springboard for D. H. Lawrence's Study of Thomas Hardy (1936). Though this work became a platform for Lawrence's own developing philosophy rather than a more standard literary study, the influence of Hardy's treatment of character and Lawrence's own response to the

central metaphysic behind many of Hardy's novels helped significantly in the development of The Rainbow (1915, suppressed) and Women in Love (1920, private publication). Hardy was clearly the starting point for the character of the novelist Edward Driffield in W Somerset Maugham's novel Cakes and Ale. Thomas Hardy's works feature prominently in the narrative in Christopher Durang's The Marriage of Bette and Boo, in which a graduate thesis analysing Tess of the d'Urbervilles is interspersed with analysis of Matt's family's neuroses.

4、Edgar Allan Poe埃德加·爱伦·坡(1809-1849)

—critic, poet, short story writer.

1. Poe’s poetic theories

Poe’s poetic theories are best elucidated in his “The Philosophy of Composition: and “the Poetic Principle”. 1) The poems he says, should be short, readable at one sitting. 2)Its chief aim is beauty, namely, to produce a feeling of beauty in the reader.3) ―Pure poetry‖ i.e. poetry does not have to inculcate a moral, instead the artistry of the poem lies not in what is being said but the way it is said. Poe stresses rhythm, defines true poetry as “the rhythmical creation of beauty”.

2. His famous poems

― The Raven‖

―To Helen‖

―Annabel Lee‖

2. Poe’s short stories

1)Poe’s short story theory:

The short story must be of such length as to be read at one sitting (brevity), so as to ensure the totality of impression. The very first sentence ought to help to bring out the “single effect”of the story. No word should be used which does not contribute to the “pre-established”design of the work (compression) A tale should reveal some logical truth with “the fullest satisfaction,”should end with the last sentence, leaving a sense of finality with the reader.

2)The characteristic of Poe’s short stories

Poe’s short stories can be divided into the gothic tales and detective tales. His tales are grotesque, burlesque and are pervaded by a horrible atmosphere with insane and dehumanized heroes and heroines who are usually afflicted with mysterious diseases and on the verge of dying; In the stories he fully exhibited man and woman’s morbid melancholy resulting from their fear of death and revealed their evil inner-world through the use of symbolism.

3)His major short stories:

―A Cask of Amontillado‖《一桶白葡萄酒》

―The Tell-Tale Heart‖《泄密的心》

―Legiea‖《丽姬亚》

―The Fall of the House of Usher ‖

《鄂舍古屋的倒塌》

―Murders in the Rue Morgue‖《毛格街血案》

Short stories collection: Tales of the Grotesque and Arabesque(1840) 《怪异故事集》

He was an American author, poet, editor and literary critic, considered part of the American Romantic Movement. Best known for his tales of mystery and the macabre, Poe was one of the earliest American practitioners of the short story and is considered the inventor of the detective

fiction genre. He is further credited with contributing to the emerging genre of science fiction. He was the first well-known American writer to try to earn a living through writing alone, resulting in a financially difficult life and career.

He was born Edgar Poe in Boston, Massachusetts, on January 19, 1809, the second child of English-born actress Elizabeth Arnold Hopkins Poe and actor David Poe, Jr. He had an elder brother, William Henry Leonard Poe, and a younger sister, Rosalie Poe. Edgar may have been named after a character in William Shakespeare's King Lear, a play the couple was performing in 1809. His father abandoned their family in 1810, and his mother died a year later from consumption (pulmonary tuberculosis). Poe was then taken into the home of John Allan, a successful Scottish merchant in Richmond, Virginia, who dealt in a variety of goods including tobacco, cloth, wheat, tombstones, and slaves. The Allans served as a foster family and gave him the name "Edgar Allan Poe", though they never formally adopted him.

During his lifetime, Poe was mostly recognized as a literary critic. Fellow critic James Russell Lowell called him "the most discriminating, philosophical, and fearless critic upon imaginative works who has written in America", suggesting – rhetorically – that he occasionally used prussic acid instead of ink. Poe's caustic reviews earned him the epithet "Tomahawk Man". A favorite target of Poe's criticism was Boston's then acclaimed poet, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, who was often defended by his literary friends in what would later be called "The Longfellow War". Poe accused Longfellow of "the heresy of the didactic‖, writing poetry that was preachy, derivative, and thematically plagiarized. Poe correctly predicted that Longfellow's reputation and style of poetry would decline, concluding that "We grant him high qualities, but deny him the Future".

Like many famous artists, Poe's works have spawned innumerable imitators. One interesting trend among imitators of Poe, however, has been claims by clairvoyants or psychics to be "channeling" poems from Poe's spirit. One of the most notable of these was Lizzie Doten, who in 1863 published Poems from the Inner Life, in which she claimed to have "received" new compositions by Poe's spirit. The compositions were re-workings of famous Poe poems such as "The Bells", but which reflected a new, positive outlook.

Even so, Poe has received not only praise, but criticism as well. This is partly because of the negative perception of his personal character and its influence upon his reputation. William Butler Yeats was occasionally critical of Poe and once called him "vulgar". Transcendentalist Ralph Waldo Emerson reacted to "The Raven" by saying, "I see nothing in it" and derisively referred to Poe as "the jingle man". Aldous Huxley wrote that Poe's writing "falls into vulgarity" by being "too poetical"—the equivalent of wearing a diamond ring on every finger.

It is believed that only 12 copies of Poe's first book, Tamerlane and Other Poems, have survived. In December 2009, one copy sold at Christie's, New York for $662,500, a record price paid for a work of American literature.

5、Ernest Miller Hemingway欧内斯特·米勒尔·海明威

代表作:

The Sun Also Rises

A Farewell to Arms

For Whom the Bell Tolls

The Old Man and the Sea

For Appreciation:

Hills Like White Elephant

Hemingway's novels pioneered a new style of writing which many generations after tried to imitate. Hemingway did away with the florid prose of the 19th century Victorian era and replaced it with a lean, clear prose based on action. He also employed a technique by which he left out essential information of the story in the belief that omission can sometimes strengthen the plot of the novel.

Hemingway’s artistic features:

1. The Hemingway heroes and grace under pressure: They have seen the cold world ,and for one cause, they boldly and courageously face the reality. They has an indestructible spirit for his optimistic view of life. Whatever the result is, they are ready to live with grace under pressure. No matter how tragic the ending is, they will never be defeated. Finally, they will be prevail because of their indestructible spirit and courage.

2. The iceberg technique:

Hemingway believe that a good writer does not need to reveal every detail of a character or action. The one-eighth that is presented will suggest all other meaningful dimensions of the story. Thus, Hemingway’s language is symbolic and suggestive

He was an American author and journalist. His economical and understated style had a strong influence on 20th-century fiction, while his life of adventure and his public image influenced later generations. Hemingway produced most of his work between the mid-1920s and the mid-1950s, and won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1954. He published seven novels, six short story collections and two non-fiction works. Three novels, four collections of short stories and three non-fiction works were published posthumously. Many of these are considered classics of American literature.

Hemingway's legacy to American literature is his style: writers who came after him emulated it or avoided it.[177] After his reputation was established with the publication of The Sun Also Rises, he became the spokesperson for the post–World War I generation, having established a style to follow.[152] His books were burned in Berlin in 1933, "as being a monument of modern decadence", and disavowed by his parents as "filth".[178] Reynolds asserts the legacy is that "he left stories and novels so starkly moving that some have become part of our cultural heritage."[179] In a 2004 speech at the John F. Kennedy Library, Russell Banks declared that he, like many male writers of his generation, was influenced by Hemingway's writing philosophy, style, and public image.[180] Müller reports that Hemingway "has the highest recognition value of all writers worldwide".[181]

Benson believes the details of Hemingway's life have become a "prime vehicle for exploitation", resulting in a Hemingway industry.[182] Hemingway scholar Hallengren believes the "hard boiled style" and the machismo must be separated from the author himself.[178] Benson agrees, describing him as introverted and private as J. D. Salinger, although Hemingway masked his nature with braggadocio.[183] In fact, during World War II, Salinger met and corresponded with Hemingway, whom he acknowledged as an influence. In a letter to Hemingway, Salinger claimed their talks "had given him his only hopeful minutes of the entire war" and jokingly "named himself national chairman of the Hemingway Fan Clubs."[184]

The extent of Hemingway's influence is seen in the tributes and echoes of his fiction in popular culture. A minor planet, discovered in 1978 by Soviet astronomer Nikolai Stepanovich Chernykh, was named for him (3656 Hemingway);[185] Ray Bradbury wrote The Kilimanjaro Device, with Hemingway transported to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro;[71] the 1993 motion picture Wrestling Ernest Hemingway, about the friendship of two retired men, Irish and Cuban, in a seaside town in Florida, starred Robert Duvall, Richard Harris, Shirley MacLaine, Sandra Bullock, and Piper Laurie.[186] The influence is evident with the many restaurants named "Hemingway"; and the proliferation of bars called "Harry's" (a nod to the bar in Across the River and Into the Trees).[187] A line of Hemingway furniture, promoted by Hemingway's son Jack (Bumby), has pieces such as the "Kilimanjaro" bedside table, and a "Catherine" slip-covered sofa. Montblanc offers a Hemingway fountain pen, and a line of Hemingway safari clothes has been created.[188] The International Imitation Hemingway Competition was created in 1977 to publicly acknowledge his influence and the comically misplaced efforts of lesser authors to imitate his style. Entrants are encouraged to submit one "really good page of really bad Hemingway" and winners are flown to Italy to Harry's Bar.[189]

In 1965 Mary Hemingway established the Hemingway Foundation and in the 1970s she donated her husband's papers to the John F. Kennedy Library. In 1980 a group of Hemingway scholars gathered to assess the donated papers, subsequently forming the Hemingway Society, "committed to supporting and fostering Hemingway scholarship."[190]

Almost exactly 35 years after Hemingway's death, on July 1, 1996, his granddaughter Margaux Hemingway died in Santa Monica, California. Margaux was a supermodel and actress, co-starring with her sister Mariel in the 1976 movie Lipstick.[191] Her death was later ruled a suicide, making her "the fifth person in four generations of her family to commit suicide."[192]

6、Eugene O'neil尤金·奥尼尔(1888-1953)

代表作:

The Emperor of Jones (1920)

The Hairy Ape (1922)

All God’s Chillun Got Wings(1924)

Desire Under the Elms (1924)

He was an American playwright and Nobel laureate in Literature. His poetically titled plays were among the first to introduce into American drama techniques of realism earlier associated with Russian playwright Anton Chekhov, Norwegian playwright Henrik Ibsen, and Swedish playwright August Strindberg. His plays were among the first to include speeches in American vernacular and involve characters on the fringes of society, where they struggle to maintain their hopes and aspirations, but ultimately slide into disillusionment and despair. O'Neill wrote only one well-known comedy (Ah, Wilderness!).[1][2] Nearly all of his other plays involve some degree of tragedy and personal pessimism.

O'Neill was very interested in the Faust theme, especially in the 1920s.

教师的阅读力读后感

教师的阅读力读后感 本文是关于读后感的,仅供参考,如果觉得很不错,欢迎点评和分享。 教师的阅读力读后感(—) 在假期阅读了了《教师阅读力》这本书后。我有了深刻的感受和体会,从中受益颇多。 此书讲述了一个人的精神发展史就是他的阅读史,凸显了阅读在人的成长过程中的重要作用。作为教师,教育的根本任务是“以德树人”,而这一任务相对应的“公民道德规范”、“科学文化知识”、“身心健康标准”等都是昨天形成的。我们所做的工作是面对昨天理解昨天甚至是记忆昨天,这实际是文化的传承,阅读如此重要。而阅读在现实生活中却不被重视,当我们还在为阅读现状焦虑时,一场阅读革命正悄悄地进行着,我们可以看到书中对阅读提出了新的要求。 教师的阅读力低下导致的精神贫瘠是多么可怕,一个教师的幸福感来自于他自身的成长,并且这种影响将源源不断影响学生。教师像一束光,但能否真正让这一束光点燃另一束光呢? 其中提到教育素养应终生修炼,当认真阅读后,不禁让我陷入了沉思,也伴随着汗颜的感觉。的确作为老师,是急需提升自身素养的,这包括学科素养、研究学生素养、语言素养。学科素养,就是要精通自己所教的学科,我们可能只熟悉本学科初中的教材,没有系统的研究教材。但在学科素养方面,我们仍需补很多的课。在研究学生素养这一方面,我自认为在教学中最大的欠缺是缺少与学生沟通,虽然我

们常说以“生”为本,但却忽略研究学生。我想,研究学生要了解学生的思维,他们对什么有兴趣?他们怎样思考问题?他们怎样进行学习?他们对课本的内容的了解程度是多少?已知是什么?未知是什么?著名美国心理学家奥苏贝尔说过:“如果不得不把教育心理学的所有内容简约成一条原理的话,我会说影响学习的最重要因素是学生已知的内容,弄清这一点后,进行相应的教学。”这里的“已知”,应理解为不仅指学生头脑中已有的知识,还包括学生的认知结构,其实如果单单只是让教师讲一节课太容易了,认真备课就行,不了解情况,上课的效果就无法达到预期。因此学生可选择听讲,也可以选择不听讲,教师很辛苦,讲来讲去,而学生却做别的事。 所以作为教师,更重要的是尊重学生的智慧,倾听学生的声音,保护学生的好奇心和求知欲,并且注重教师的语言素养。那么何谓教师的语言素养?它就是教师在教育教学活动中准确规范地运用本民族语言来表达思想情感、观点见解等必须具备的一种基本素养,一般包括专业语言、态势语言、情感语言几种素养。教师无论教授何种学科,都必须具备娴熟的专业语言、丰富的态势语言和情感语言。在传道、授业、解惑中要做到“文以载道”“文道统一”,从而提高学生学习的激情和课堂教学效率。这是教育本身的要求,也是教师职业的要求,更是时代对教育的要求。 拿破仑曾说,“世界上有两种东西最有力量,一是剑,二是思想,而思想比剑更有分量。”一个教师只有形成鲜明的、独特的思想,才能在教育的星空里放射出璀璨的光芒。

What’s symbolism? 1)Symbolism is a movement in literature and the visual arts that originated in France in the late 19th century. In literature, symbolism was an aesthetic movement that encouraged writers to express their ideas, feelings, and values by means of symbols or suggestions rather than by direct statements. Hawthorne and Melville are masters of symbolism in America in the 19th century. 2)举例。

48. “Young Goodman Brown ”is one of Hawthorne ’s most profound tales. What is the allegorical meaning of Brown, the protagonist? What does Hawthorne set out to prove in this tale? How does Melville comment on Hawthorne ’s manner of concerning with guilt and evil?

**ELIZABETH **4. A comparison of the three giants: William Dean Howells; Mark Twain; and Henry James They are the three dominant figures of the realistic period. The forerunner of American Realism is Howells. Though the three writers wrote more or less at the same time, they differed in their understanding of the “truth.”While Mark Twain and Howells seemed to have paid more attention to the “life”of the Americans, Henry James had apparently laid a greater emphasis on the “inner world”of man. Though Twain and Howells both shared the same concern in presenting the truth of the American society, they had each of them different emphasis. Howells focused his discussion on the rising middle class and the way they lived, while Twain preferred to have his own region and people at the forefront of his stories.

我喜爱的书刊作文12篇

《我喜爱的书刊作文》 我喜爱的书刊作文(一): 我喜爱的书刊 《意林》是我喜爱的书刊。我与《意林》相识,还是得益于朋友的牵线搭桥。那几本厚厚或薄薄的《意林》一出现,便深深的吸引了我。不管疲劳时,还是闲暇时,我都会捧一本《意林》看得津津有味。《意林》栏目众多,但都是一些意趣横生、意味深长的小故事。它于短小精悍的故事中,展现人的灵性,折射人在生活中灵光一现,体现人生哲理。因此许多小故事让我记忆深刻、深受启发。有一个故事名字叫一步改变一生。故事讲了著名导演张艺谋去一个小山村选演员。他一连问了好几遍:谁想演电影?村民们都不吱声。 这时,一个长相并不漂亮的女孩站了出来,还边唱边扭了一段,引的村里人哈哈大笑。没想到这个勇敢的姑娘被张导选中,还在影片中出演女主角,之后她名声大燥。从这个故事中我懂得了有时候不要轻视那小小的一步,它可能会改变人的一生。所以我学会了勇敢,相信自我以后遇到事情会更有自信、更勇敢一些。阅读是一个有生命的过程,在阅读中,仿佛故事中的主人公都变得活灵活现起来,给我讲述、与我交流。 《意林》真是小故事大智慧,小幽默大道理,小视角大意境。它鼓舞了我的智慧和心灵。我认为,读《意林》是一件很惬意的事,它能够让你忘却疲劳,沉浸在那些哲理的小故事中。《意林》,它就像一缕温情的阳光,照耀人性的每一个角落;就像一把智慧的钥匙,将打开成功的通道;就像一位心心相印的朋友,将和我一齐提升人生的境界。 我喜爱的书刊作文(二): 我喜爱的书刊 学习之余我喜欢看书来充实自我的生活,从识字以来我看了很多的书:有《简爱》、《安娜卡列尼娜》、《傲慢与偏见》等世界名著,有《红楼梦》、《西厢记》、《三国演义》等中国古典小说,还有很多当代小说,其中,我最喜欢看的是反映我们读书生活的校园小说。在看过的校园小说中,我最爱读的一本就是《三重门》,它是一本批评现行教育制度的书。《三重门》描述了一群高一学生的读书生活。主人公雨翔是个很有个性的人物。他敢跟老师唱反调,逃课,逃夜,他把应试教育批得面目全非,视教育制度为草芥。我很佩服主人公的敢做敢当,不畏权势。《三重门》之所以吸引了广大学生朋友的目光,我想主要是这本书的作者韩寒是一个传奇人物。他刚上高一就能写出一部轰动全国的书,有的学生说韩寒写出了他们的心声,把他们隐藏在心底多年的心理话都说了出来,觉得十分痛快。也有人说韩寒自高自大,目中无人,复制钱钟书的思想,因为《三重门》的文笔跟《围城》的很相似,总之,韩寒成了学生们的偶像,家长们担心的对象。

佚名一篇关于教师的文章

佚名:教师的痛苦就是教育的悲哀 目前教育存在的诸多问题,集中于最关键的一点,那就是:教师的生活最痛苦! 目前社会最低层的几个职业中,唯有教师是无法凭真本事吃饭的行业!当医生,能不能把病治好,就是标准;当工人,能不能把产品做好,就是标准,而教师呢?评定教师工作的好坏应该是教学,但怎样的教学才算好呢?高分?现在讲素质教育!学生品德好?考试考不好,那校长在会议上报名次,你的脸往哪儿放?教师该朝哪个方向努力?无所适从! 教师是无法凭真本事吃饭的行业,并不是说教师没有真本事,事实上许多教师(尤其是早年的师范毕业生)都具有过硬的个人素质,问题是现在学校考核教师的标准活动性太大,领导根据个人偏好来评判教师的现象十分普遍,“教而优则仕”,在学校几乎是不存在的,朝中无人,休想做官!再想想,官都被“朝中有人”的人做去了,那些只凭自己本事的人到哪儿去做官呢?除非你也去钻营,否则,前途与钱途,一切免谈!如果大家都去钻营,这书谁来教?正事谁来做?谁来用心替学生考虑? 目前社会最低层的几个职业中,唯有教师升官是跟业绩没有关系的行业!教育没有统一的评定标准,教师工作的优劣很难判断,这一点,被教育界的领导运用得可谓出神入化,说你行,你就行,不行也行;说你不行,你就不行,行也不行!谁拍马逢迎,请客送礼,我就提拔谁,你能怎么着? 目前社会最低层的几个职业中,唯有学校内领导的总体业务水平比被领导低的行业。以前有个笑话:几个教师分配工作,会教语文的教语文,会教数学的教数学……什么都不会的当校长!现在的学校体制好像就是按这个笑话在运作! 目前社会最低层的几个职业中,唯有教师是还形式主义泛滥成灾的行业!教师的工作应该是教学生,除此之外,都是不误正业,可现在的教育行政部门,却偏偏不让教师静下心来教书。一周一篇“教学心得”,一月一篇“教学论文”,一课一篇“教学反思”,一学期一次总结。今天检查摘抄,明天检查笔记,用一次电教设备,要记录一次,到时上级来督导检查,只看你的记录,至于用不用,无所谓!有教师戏言,老师上一次厕所,也要撕下便纸的一角,写上年月日,存档,以备检查!不要小看这些检查啊!应付检查,往往是学校的“中心工作”,你课可以不上,但这些应付检查的材料“一个不能少”,这些都是跟教师业务考核挂钩的!少了要扣分,也就是扣钱!教师谁敢怠慢?因此,我看到许多教师不得不停下正常的课务,埋头苦苦“准备”这些材料。 目前社会最低层的几个职业中,唯有教师是存在教师继续教育专门“培训”部门的行业!许多“培训”本身就是形式主义不说,更让教师受不了是,人事部门组织的继续教育每学期都要占用教师的双休日、寒暑假大量时间外,还要狮子大开口,狂刮教师本就羞涩的布囊,宰你没商量!让教师叫苦不迭! 目前社会最低层的几个职业中,唯有教师是无法真正体现多劳多得的行业!在教师这个行业,多劳就意味着多失!“干得越多,问题越多,干的越少,没有烦恼!”你一心扑在教学上,呕心沥血,有了成绩,有点良心的校长会表扬你几句,良心失去的会说,是你应该做的!就算给点你奖金,也是可怜得很。至此,你就会真的去吐血,去“呕心沥血”了! 目前社会最低层的几个职业中,教师也是最难跳槽的行业。要调动单位(向好一点的学校调动),必须教育局以上有人,除非你辞职不干,否则,在原地呆着吧!有的学校领导在会议上公开刺激教师:“有本事你走人,我一定放!”教师能走到哪儿去?走又走不了,升又升不了,那怎么办?只有混!教师也是人,也有成功的冲动。 目前社会最低层的几个职业中,只有教师是靠死工资生活的!教师的总收入是最低的,教了十几年的书,工资才1000元出头,过年过节的慰问费20-30元,没有月奖、季度奖和年终奖。而那些政府工作人员、公务员、其他事业单位人员的工资和教师也差不多,但他们
