Putting limited time and energy into systematic reading is the scientific reading method.
One sign a day.
Li Huanlong, the director of Ankang Library, carefully examined the books piled up on the desks at work and home, only to find that 19 books have been turned over since June this year, but only three books, namely Native China, Oral History of Huang Er, Diao Han and Annotation and Translation of Ankang Excellent Traditional Family Instructions, have been basically turned over, but they have not been finished.
He doesn't believe it himself, because in the eyes of relatives, friends, colleagues and acquaintances, as a librarian and reading promoter, his greatest hobby is reading. In the eyes of his family, he is a bookworm. As long as you go home and exercise for half an hour after dinner, you will go into the study. Then, if he has read 1 book endlessly for three consecutive months, it is really not an easy task for the general public to read a complete book.
In today's network era, fragmented reading has become the normal state of people's reading. Because of the busy work and study, people have no time to settle down and study. Even if you have time to study, most of them are fleeting, just like passing clouds, and you get little because of improper methods. Some people often make up their minds to read a classic book intensively, but they can't go on reading it when they reach a third. After a year, not many people really read a book from beginning to end.
Recently, some experts, scholars and reading promoters have noticed this problem. They put forward that "classic reading begins with reading the whole book." Dr. Wang Lin, a Chinese education researcher and children's reading promoter, also pointed out that Chinese education in primary and secondary schools should not be limited to the appreciation of a single text, and children should read the whole book as much as possible, rather than scattered chapters. Children's reading promotion should cultivate children's independent reading ability and put limited time and energy into systematic reading, which is the scientific reading method.
Reading 100 books is better than reading a whole book. In this way, reading is like entering Baoshan, and you can get the treasure of knowledge and make your life fruitful.
Why read a complete book?
In the era when the country advocates reading for all, reading promotion should not only encourage people to read, but also teach people how to read and let them master better reading methods. Learning to read a whole book is more important than reading it piecemeal. Gwan Chin, director of the library of Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications and director of the Library Society of China Book Review and Reading Promotion Committee, believes that the overall pace of work and life in modern society is fast, which leads to fast reading and the public lacks "slow reading". In the online world, it seems that everyone is an author and can write their own opinions on WeChat, Weibo and blog. Everyone seems to be reading, but they lack the ability to think and appreciate what they read. Gwan Chin pointed out that in addition to fast-food fragmented reading, we should advocate "slow reading", classic reading, original reading and original reading.
Books are graded. Some books are purely entertainment and information, and can be browsed. And some books, written on themes that human beings have been concerned about, are insightful and can touch people's hearts. This kind of book can really grow with readers. When you read it when you are young, it may be just a touching story, but as you get older, you will read something deeper from these books. So these books can be circulated for thousands of years and are called classic books.
Gwan Chin believes that "a good book is never tired of reading", which means a profound book, and readers will have different understandings and understandings every time they read it. For these books, we should not only read them completely from beginning to end, but also read them repeatedly. A good classic is a work written after the author has spent a certain amount of time deliberating, pondering and thinking. Only by reading the preface and postscript, the table of contents and even the notes from beginning to end can readers truly and completely grasp the overall skeleton of the book, understand the writing origin of the book and understand the author's ideological expression.
Secondly, Gwan Chin also advocated reading aloud and reading aloud. He thinks that many wonderful details in the book are easy to be ignored and missed when browsing quickly. When reading aloud, you can pay attention to more details because you slow down the reading speed. In addition, Gwan Chin believes that reading at home should be encouraged, and teachers, parents and classmates should be encouraged to read together, and the contents in the book should be discussed and shared. These good reading traditions help to cultivate readers' thinking and appreciation ability, and should be inherited and carried forward.
How to read the whole book?
Since it is important to read the whole book, what can I do to ensure that I can calm down and study from beginning to end? Gwan Chin thinks it is very important to cultivate reading interest, especially for primary and secondary school students. Whether you can read the whole book in your spare time is an important factor to measure people's reading interest, enthusiasm and attitude. If one has the interest and habit of reading, it is not difficult to read a complete book.
There are several points to pay attention to in cultivating children's reading habits: first, students should read at least one kind of book in their spare time such as winter and summer vacations; Second, parents and teachers should let their children choose their own books, excluding textbooks, teaching AIDS and newspapers. Some children claim to like reading, but they didn't finish reading a book in the past summer vacation, or they barely read a book because of the coercion of teachers and parents, which shows that they don't really like reading.
Dr. Wang Lin talked about the significance of reading the whole book from the perspective of improving Chinese teaching for primary and secondary school students. He believes that Chinese teaching has always been considered to be in need of improvement, largely because students don't read enough. Without a certain amount of reading, it is difficult for students to have high Chinese literacy. But in the limited class time,
How does the teacher organize students to read the whole book of Daimonji?
Dr. Wang Lin wrote a good prescription for this-
"Class Reading Club". In the classroom of class reading club, students' reading materials are no longer texts, but whole books and works; Teachers generally do not teach words, words and sentences in one direction, but stimulate students' continuous reading interest through equal discussion with students; Teachers and students can not only study a paragraph or a chapter in depth, but also discuss the views of the characters and authors in the whole book. In a word, the learning concept advocated by the class reading club embodies the learning methods advocated by the Chinese curriculum standards, such as paying more attention to students' subjective reading and emphasizing solving problems in cooperative learning.
Yu Chunlin, a parent-child reading promoter and founder of Big V Store, believes that people are busy with work due to the influence of the Internet, and it is really rare to read a book completely. Now everyone has no patience to read such a long book. To solve this problem, we can start with choosing a book that is easier to read.
"I think reading picture books is a good choice. Because the story of the picture book is complete, it takes less time to read, and it can be read in a few minutes, which is easy to read. " Dad also said: "A good picture book contains a lot of gold. Stories are written by famous writers, and pictures are drawn by masters of art, such as Cao Wenxuan's picture books. Many excellent people participated in the creation of picture books.
The famous Japanese documentary writer Tadao Yano once said that a person can read picture books in at least three stages in his life: the first time is when he is young, the second time is when he is raising children, and the third time is when he enters the second half of his life. Fang Suzhen, a flower mother-in-law, once said that after the age of 35, all the wisdom and nutrition she needed in her life basically came from picture books. Picture books can give people strength, so picture books are more for adults. "Dad also introduced that he recently went to Taiwan Province Province and found that there were more than 600 adult picture book reading clubs there. Dad also wants to do this and recommend excellent picture books to adults.
Sun Weiwei, a writer of children's literature, said that if you really want to finish reading a book, you can always find time. For example, you can put a book in your schoolbag, read it on the subway at work, and read it while waiting for someone. Read a few pages every day, accumulate over a long period, and finish reading a book. He found that many people look at mobile phones now, all of which are information from friends circle and news. Even historical materials, some of them are unconfirmed, mixed with good and bad, and most of them are fragmented. Mobile phones can read, but they can't replace reading. Reading by mobile phone can't replace reading. Different feelings, different gains.
Li Huanlong introduced several ways for readers to read the whole book. He thinks that a simple reading ceremony can be designed to make his brain form a conditioned reflex, such as playing a piece of music with reading, which can cure the problem of "can't calm down"; You can also set yourself a fixed time, a fixed book and a fixed amount of reading to break the excuse of "no time"; Finally, a good memory is better than a bad writing. Learning to take reading notes can help you read a book from beginning to end.
Why don't I like fragmented reading?
Text/An Wulin
I personally don't like fragmented reading. I hardly read articles on mobile phones and WeChat. I like reading books, and they are all complete books. I have read almost all the famous articles, so I hate fragmented reading. Fragmented reading can easily lead people to have a wrong idea that they have read a lot of books and are very knowledgeable. I have always advocated that students should read the whole book. You can't know a writer by reading an article, and the knowledge you gain is very one-sided.
For students to read, I think extensive reading is not as good as intensive reading of a book. Humanities, especially literature, compare differences, not good or bad. I believe Andersen's fairy tales are very good, but Lin Gelun's fairy tales are irreplaceable. I also believe that China's fairy tale writers' works may give children nutrition that Andersen's fairy tales do not have. Intensive reading of a book is generally a research reading method, especially not suitable for primary school students. Pupils can finish one or two books in two hours. They are in a period of extensive reading and fast reading. You let them read a book over and over again, which is not quite in line with the characteristics of children. It is a rule that adults read slowly and children read fast. You can't expect a pupil to walk as slowly as a 90-year-old man, nor can you expect a centenarian to take part in the Olympic Games and compete for the sprint champion. In the same way, this is why I don't advocate primary school students to read a book intensively. They are the period to cultivate reading habits, so they should participate extensively and cultivate a strong interest in books and reading. I believe that ginseng is good if it is beneficial to open books, and plantain is also beneficial and cannot replace each other.
But it is also important to read the whole book. You will gain comprehensive knowledge and make a comprehensive and accurate evaluation. The so-called people who are dissatisfied with one bottle and gulp down half a bottle should be the kind of people who don't read the whole book. Compared with a single chapter, reading the whole book will make a more rational and comprehensive evaluation of the author, or the writer. We can see this person's ideological changes, life trajectory and style differences, and there will be a lot of room for us to learn and choose. A book is like a stream, an article and a bowl of water. If a person wants to drink water, I think there is more water in the stream.
How to read books always varies from person to person. Adults will have recreational ideas and read books to relieve boredom, while children's reading is mostly out of curiosity. For children, this is a strange world, just like exploring. This process itself has the significance of exploration and understanding. Adults' desire to learn from reading is not so strong, and their desire to read is also very complicated.
As for how to read a book, it also varies from person to person. Everyone's reading experience and reading accumulation are very different, and the purpose of reading is also different. As for me, I will read some books slowly, word by word, while some books almost read the beginning and then turn to the end, which is considered reading. Mainly the quality of reading. For example, books that are good at telling stories, I just skim through them and finish the story, while those books with beautiful language are not easy to read and need to be read slowly. If I haven't finished reading it, then I'll continue reading other books of this writer, including his diaries, letters, biographies, comments and so on. For example, that's how I read Calvino's book.
Personally, I have a half-hearted reading method, which means that I will open seven or eight books including poems, essays, fairy tales, novels and theories at the same time, and adjust them several times a day according to my mood, time, emotional concentration and weather conditions. Different styles can give people different aesthetic pleasure, and the gains from reading a book are not as good as mine. These books can be read one by one in a week. A good book needs to be treasured and read repeatedly, which is for adults.
I occasionally take some reading notes, or annotate books or something. This kind of book with ideological and artistic value will drive us to find the same book and then read it, or pay attention to this writer's book, which is already a kind of infiltration and an unconscious guidance. I am willing to associate with them and think it is best. Undoubtedly, these classic books will play a very positive role in our life, helping us to improve our judgment, world outlook and values, including inner strength, and being as warm and shining as a lamp.
