虛構(gòu)不等于說假話。它是一種源于生活,但高于生活的藝術(shù)真實。我們可以舉個例子:我國公認的最權(quán)威最真實的史書是——《史記》,那么,大家認為《史記》里有沒有虛構(gòu)呢?有。必修一的《鴻門宴》里就有虛構(gòu)。大家想:司馬遷是哪個朝代的人?西漢漢武帝時。劉邦項羽是哪個朝代的?秦末時期。那司馬遷不可能坐時光穿梭機到秦末去參加鴻門宴吧?既然他沒不在場,那課文《鴻門宴》里人物的語言、動作、甚至是表情從何而來呢?對,是司馬遷根據(jù)有限的史料加以補充,想象、虛構(gòu)出來的。那么,同學們在寫作文時,也可以不必拘泥于親身經(jīng)歷的事情,畢竟生活是平淡的,畢竟大家的生活閱歷也有限,有時候,我們發(fā)揮想象、虛構(gòu)一個故事來反映生活的真實,也許更生動、也更典型。所以,近年來高考試卷中都提示考生:作文可以大膽想象,編寫故事。按照編故事的方式不同,我們的虛構(gòu)性作文又可以寫哪些類型呢:小說,散文,童話,寓言,科幻,故事新編……
《貧寒是福天道酬勤石智勇從挫折中奮起》也許是自幼的貧寒生活塑造了石智勇內(nèi)向的性格,即使是胸掛金燦燦的獎牌接受全場觀眾歡呼,他的表情也是略顯羞澀的。小時候吃不飽肚皮的經(jīng)歷讓他至今在“最喜歡的東西”一欄還填寫著“食物”二字,而“窮人的孩子早當家”的堅韌,卻又是促成他今日輝煌的動力。中國舉重隊副總教練陳文斌賽后說道:“智勇這幾年練得很苦,今天終于有了這樣的成績,這是天道酬勤的結(jié)果。石智勇的奧運會金牌是中國男舉的一次突破,我們非常激動?!痹谙ED神話里,命運女神總是讓英雄歷經(jīng)磨難。石智勇也不例外。四年前的悉尼奧運會前夕,他在一次訓練中扭傷腳踝,失去了參賽機會?!爱敃r我傷心極了,不敢看電視直播,我怕參賽的選手成績太低了。高點我還好一點,自欺欺人一下說,哎呀好高,自己去了也拿不了冠軍,要是低了,自己沒去,失去冠軍機會,心里痛啊。后來結(jié)果出來,也不怎么高,心里真難受。”
4、主旨 哪一聯(lián)明確地點明全詩題旨?表達了作者的什么感情?試做分析 頸聯(lián)。 菊花開在秋天,所以這 “ 叢菊 ” 回應了詩題中那個 “ 秋 ” 字。 “ 他日 ” 可以指過去也可以指未來,在這里是指過去。“叢菊兩開”,指詩人于 765 年離開成都,原打算很快出峽,但這年留居云安,次年又留居夔州,見到叢菊開了兩次,還未出峽,故對菊掉淚。秋菊兩度盛開,使詩人再次灑下往日流過的眼淚?!伴_”字雙關(guān),一謂菊花開,又言淚眼隨之開。此時他仍然滯留在他鄉(xiāng),他始終沒有放棄回鄉(xiāng)的打算。孤舟可以系住,使其不能泛諸中流,但詩人的心是系不住的。他的心早已越過江河,越過關(guān)山,飛到了長安。所以,一葉靠岸系繩的孤舟,始終都牽動著詩人的故園之思。這一聯(lián)是全篇詩意所在。孤舟本來只能系住自己的行蹤,卻把詩人的思鄉(xiāng)之心也牢牢地系住了,故見舟傷心,引出故園之思,表現(xiàn)出思鄉(xiāng)之情的深沉濃烈和欲歸不得的無奈與凄傷,為文章的主旨句。
評價分析法,就是引述事例后,對所引述的事例作適當?shù)脑u價,從而使自己的觀點得到印證。例如,在論“節(jié)儉”時,引用了“曾國藩以儉戒子,其子曾紀澤終成出色的外交家;方志敏居官不貪,一生清貧,千古留名”的事實后,接著進行分析:是的,“儉者心常富”,節(jié)儉能培養(yǎng)人同困難作斗爭的勇氣和意志,而這正是一個人立業(yè)最重要的素質(zhì)。從這個意義上說,有人說饑餓是人生的佐料,吃苦是一種資本也不無道理,而自覺和戒奢尚儉則更是促人修身養(yǎng)性,磨煉意志的有效途徑。這里,作者緊扣論點,對論據(jù)進行了評價性分析,這種評價分析使作者的觀點得到強化。(四)因果分析法因果分析法,就是抓住論據(jù)所述的事實,并據(jù)此推求形成原因的一種分析方法。事出必有其因。我們可以依據(jù)事物發(fā)展變化的因果關(guān)系,由事物發(fā)展變化的結(jié)果,推導出產(chǎn)生這種結(jié)果的原因,從而揭示出一定的生活規(guī)律,使事例有力地證明觀點。

戰(zhàn)國陰陽五行家鄒衍認為,歷史中的朝代更替是由于五德運行產(chǎn)生的影響。按照鄒衍的學說,每個朝代必須與五德之一相連,因此,這個朝代就應當遵循這五德之一的要求來運轉(zhuǎn)。董仲舒修改了這個理論,認為朝代的更替不是依循五德運行的順序,而是依循“三統(tǒng)”,即黑統(tǒng)、白統(tǒng)、赤統(tǒng)的順序。他在《三代改制質(zhì)文》中說:每個朝代都依循一統(tǒng),每統(tǒng)又各有其為政的系統(tǒng)。按董仲舒的說法,夏朝代表黑統(tǒng),商朝代表白統(tǒng);周朝則是赤統(tǒng)。夏、商、周三朝完成了這一歷史循環(huán)。之后,歷史又開始一次新的循環(huán),新的朝代又應當代表黑統(tǒng)。繼承周朝統(tǒng)治的既不是秦朝,也不是漢朝,而是孔子,他承受天命,創(chuàng)立了黑統(tǒng)??鬃铀芴烀皇且环N“法統(tǒng)”,而是一種“道統(tǒng)”。董仲舒說:“《春秋》大一統(tǒng)者,天地之常經(jīng),古今之通誼也。今師異道,人異論,百家殊方,指意不同,是以上亡以持一統(tǒng);法制數(shù)變,下不知所守。臣愚以為諸不在六藝之科孔子之術(shù)者,皆絕其道,勿使并進。邪辟之說滅息,然后統(tǒng)紀可一而法度可明,民知所從矣?!?/p>

教學目的:通過學生課前收集資料、課堂展示、小組討論及教師總結(jié)和講解等形式,明確文化競爭力在國際競爭中的地位,感受各國各國日益激烈的文化競爭力,探討如何提升中國特色社會主義文化的競爭力,培養(yǎng)學生的分析解決問題的能力,增強責任意識、科技意識和成才意識。教學時間:1小時課前準備:(1)學生分組收集美國、日本、英國等國家文化產(chǎn)業(yè)的發(fā)展狀況和中國文化走向世界的資料,并要求制成簡單的課件。(2)分組討論課本P23—25的三個探究問題(①運用這些資料,從物質(zhì)和精神兩個方面,說明發(fā)展文化有什么意義。②你還能從社會生活的哪些現(xiàn)象中感受到一個國家的文化競爭力?③今天,中國文化為什么能夠在世界各地贏得尊重與喝彩?),組長整理好討論結(jié)果。
1.在激烈的國際競爭中,美國為首“巴統(tǒng)”在對中國出口高科技產(chǎn)品的問題上采取了種種限制措施,以避免西方發(fā)達國家的高科技技術(shù)和設備流人中國。面對發(fā)達國家的技術(shù)封鎖,我們應該( )A.加速我國對外開放的步伐B.盡快改善與西方發(fā)達國家的關(guān)系C.努力提高自身的科技水平,增強本國的綜合國力D.立足于自力更生,努力開發(fā)所有的高科技技術(shù),以免受制于人答案:C解析:在當今和未來的世界,經(jīng)濟是基礎,科技是龍頭。因而,發(fā)展經(jīng)濟和科學技術(shù)是世界大多數(shù)國家最關(guān)心的問題。各國之間的競爭越來越多地轉(zhuǎn)向經(jīng)濟和科技領(lǐng)域。各國都已經(jīng)清楚地認識到,能否在科技發(fā)展上取得優(yōu)勢,增強以經(jīng);濟和科技為基礎的綜合國力,最終將決定本國在國際上的地位。受各種主客觀條件的限制,任何國家都不可能開發(fā)出自己所需要的所有技術(shù),國家之間必須加強技術(shù)交流,互通有無,共同發(fā)展?!鞍徒y(tǒng)”對我國進行技術(shù)出口方面的限制是基于其敵視中國的戰(zhàn)略需要。為了打破西方國家的對我國的技術(shù)限制,我國必須從自身出發(fā),提高自身的科技水平。
(2)偉大的意義:這些精神文明創(chuàng)建活動,是人民群眾“移風易俗”、改造社會的偉大創(chuàng)造,也是人民群眾自我教育、自我提高的有效途徑。各具特色的精神文明創(chuàng)建活動,使人們在自覺參與的過程中思想感情得到熏陶,思想覺悟得到啟發(fā),精神生活得到充實,道德意識得到增強,道德境界得到升華。這對整個中華民族的精神面貌,正在產(chǎn)生不可估量的積極影響。◇點撥:“相關(guān)鏈接”描述了青年志愿者活動,引導學生感悟其精神,升華道德境界,增強參與意識。(3)必然的選擇:投身于社會主義精神文明建設的偉大實踐,做新時期中國先進文化的傳播者和建設者,是當代中國青年成長、成才的必然選擇。◇拓展延伸:在群眾性精神文明創(chuàng)建活動中涌現(xiàn)出的先進人物和英雄模范,像孔繁森、張海迪、徐洪剛、韓素云、李國安、徐虎、李素麗等,在全社會起到了良好的示范作用;提出的一些響亮口號,如“從我做起,從現(xiàn)在做起”“崗位學雷鋒,行業(yè)樹新風”“單位做個好職工,社會做個好公民,家庭做個好成員”等,不斷激勵著人們。
(三)合作探究、精講點撥 【情景導入,感受文化的影響】用多媒體展示教材“活動探究”P13的內(nèi)容(圖文并茂)情景問題:① 從這兩幅畫面中發(fā)現(xiàn)了哪些文化上的區(qū)別?你還能舉出更多的事例嗎?② 面對我們祖先創(chuàng)造的精美文化產(chǎn)品,人們的感慨,既有差異,又有共同之處。你能否解釋這是為什么?(學生討論、回答)情景問題:讓學生閱讀“活動探究”情景,帶著這些問題去思考、合作、探究,在學生交流、探究的基礎上,分組派代表完成這些問題,突出了學生的主體地位。設計意圖:1、開門見山的方式引導學生進行新的學習探究活動,創(chuàng)設問題情景,引起懸念,吸引學生的注意力,激發(fā)學生的學習興趣和探究欲望。2、通過自主探究,讓學生感悟到道理越辯越明,促使學生存疑、質(zhì)疑,從而產(chǎn)生強烈的探究欲望。
7.我國人力資源開發(fā)利用面臨四大挑戰(zhàn)在全面建設小康社會進程中,我國人力資源開發(fā)與利用面臨著以下四個方面嚴峻挑戰(zhàn)。(1)勞動力供給高峰的到來加劇了勞動力供求總量矛盾。持續(xù)的經(jīng)濟增長和人口計劃生育控制,使得我國人口再生產(chǎn)在不到30年的時間內(nèi)完成了從“高出生率、低死亡率、高自然增長率”的類型到“低出生率、低死亡率、低自然增長率”類型的轉(zhuǎn)變,人口在日增長率已經(jīng)連續(xù)數(shù)年低于千分之十。然而,龐大的人口基數(shù)及其低速增長仍對中國未來經(jīng)濟增長和社會發(fā)展帶來巨大的就業(yè)壓力,大量預測表明,未來20年是中國人口數(shù)量增長和勞動力供給的高峰時期。20世紀90年代以來,中國勞動年齡人口比重(16—59歲年齡組)由1990—1996年期間的61%~62%上升到1999年的63.2%。這種趨勢將會持續(xù)到2020年左右達到峰值,直到老齡化進程抵消了數(shù)量增長效應,勞動年齡人口的比重才會趨于下降。到2020年,中國勞動年齡人口將由2000年的8.61億上升到10.04億,平均每年新增勞動力715萬人。
一、教材分析 《認識運動 把握規(guī)律》是人教版高中政治必修四第4章第2框的教學內(nèi)容,主要學習運動和規(guī)律二、教學目標1.知識目標:運動的含義、相對靜止的含義、規(guī)律的含義、物質(zhì)和運動的辨證關(guān)系、運動和靜止的辨證關(guān)系2.能力目標: 鍛煉學生理論聯(lián)系實際的能力,培養(yǎng)學生正確認識世界本質(zhì),并能夠自覺按照客觀規(guī)律辦事的能力3.情感、態(tài)度和價值觀目標:通過學習運動和靜止的辨證關(guān)系,使學生懂得辨證唯物主義在承認運動絕對性的同時還承認相對靜止的重要作用,從而承認世界是可知的,在生活、學習和工作中增強認識世界和改造世界的勇氣和信心,反對離開相對靜止談運動,避免形而上學的相對主義和詭辯論的錯誤三、教學重點難點規(guī)律的客觀性四、學情分析本框題的內(nèi)容比較抽象,不易理解,所以講解時需要詳細。教師指導學生借助生活中的一些常識來學習本課內(nèi)容

1. 這個寓言是一個關(guān)于一位國王古寓言。 The fable is an old fable about a king.2.作者用這個故事讓讀者對于社區(qū)的問題負有個人責任的必要印象深刻。The author used the story to impress upon readers with the need to take personal responsibility for problems in the community.3. 這個故事十分成功的實現(xiàn)了它的目的。The story was quite successful in achieving its purpose.Step 7 WritingPlease write a review of the story according the outline above.The fable is an old fable about a king who thought his people are lazy, so he put a large stone in the middle of the road and hides and waited to see if anyone will try to move it.The author used this story to impress upon readers with the need to take personal responsibility for problems in the community. The story was quite successful in achieving its purpose, and I liked it because it had a clear moral.However, while the moral of the story is clear, the actions of the king seemed pointless to me, because none of the characters in the story learnt anything. For this reason, I think there are better stories that can be used to impress upon people with the need for personal responsibility.Step 8 Pair workExchange drafts with a partner.

⑦在我看來, 探索太空是值得的。As far as I am concerned, it is worthwhile to explore the space.Step 10 Writing---draftRecently, students in our class have had heated a discussion on whether space is worth exploring. Students hold different ideas about it.30% of us think space exploration is not worthwhile. They think space is too far away from us and our daily life and is a waste of money. And the money spent on space exploration can be used to solve the earth’s problems such as starvation and pollution.On the other hand,70% think space is worth exploring because we have benefited a lot from it,such as using satellites for communication and weather forecast. What’s more,with further space research,we may solve the population problem by moving to other planets one day. Also,space research will enable us to find new sources to solve the problem of energy shortages on the earth.As far as I am concerned, it is worthwhile to explore the space. Not only can it promote the development of society but also enrich our life. Step 11 Pair workExchange drafts with a partner.
