在人物方面,刘慈欣的小说继承了古典科幻小说中的人物塑造规律,即无论是技术专家还是普通人,他们一定要在社会的变革中被推向改变世界的精英舞台。在情感线索方面,刘慈欣与其他新生代作家的主要区别是,他很少将男女关系置于情感的中心位置(虽然他的男女情感写得细腻而成熟)……在他的作品中,科学的诗意永远是一种基本情调。疑难探究如何理解小说中的“我”和小姑娘这两个人物形象?小说的主要人物是“我”与“她”(小姑娘)。“我”是小说的叙事者,也是小说中“行动着”的人,起着串联情节的作用。“我”的性格既有开朗热情的一面,也有灰色伤感的另一面,内心深处的悲悯情怀,使“我”这个形象更加丰满。小姑娘作为地航飞船的领航员,身处险境而不惊恐,不慌乱,还不告诉“我”自己所处的位置,不倾诉自己的郁闷,以大无畏的精神继续坚守岗位,不仅表现出勇敢、乐观、坚韧的品质,更带有一种悲壮的英雄主义色彩。
海伦·凯勒一岁多时不幸染上疾病,致使她双目失明、双耳失聪,随之又丧失了说话的能力。从此,她坠入了一个黑暗而沉寂的世界,陷入了痛苦的深渊。17岁,海伦·凯勒考进哈佛大学,还掌握了英、法、德、拉丁和希腊五种语言。大学期间,她开始写作。毕业后,她把自己的一生献给了盲人福利和教育事业,并在繁忙的工作中先后完成了14部具有世界影响的著作,最著名的是其自传《假如给我三天光明》。海伦·凯勒无比敬爱和感激自己的老师莎莉文,她说:“假如给我三天光明,我首先要长久地凝视我的老师——安妮·莎莉文!”海伦把自己的学习分成四个步骤:1.每天用三个小时自学。2.用两个小时默记所学的知识。3.再用一个小时的时间将自己用三个小时所学的知识默写下来。4.剩下的时间她运用学过的知识练习写作。在学习与记忆的过程中,她只有一个信念:她一定能够把自己所学习的知识记下来,使自己成为一个有用的人。她每天坚持学习10个小时以上,经过长时间的刻苦学习,她掌握了大量的知识,能熟练地背诵大量的诗词和名著的精彩片段。
演讲稿频道《国旗下的讲话演讲稿:学会设计人生的价值观》,希望大家喜欢。各位尊敬的老师,亲爱的同学们:大家上午好!同学们,人生的目标不妨定的高远些,如果经过全力打拼,没有实现,那么至少也要比目标定的太低的人实现得多。林肯曾经说过:“喷泉的高度不会超过他的源头,一个人的事业也是这样,他的成就绝不会超过他的信念”。当拿破仑还是个少尉的时候,工作之余,他的同伴们便开始寻欢作乐,去游玩或找女人。他却在埋头读书,如饥似渴地读那些对他将来有用的东西:历史、战争、哲学、文化、法律、天文、地理、气象学等等。他曾说过:“不想当元帅的士兵不是个好士兵”。
讲话稿是应用写作研究的重要文体之一。表明事情的缘由。下面是小编为大家整理的关于初中学生国旗下的讲话稿,欢迎大家的阅读。初中学生国旗下的讲话稿一 老师们,同学们:上午好!今天我演讲的题目是《积极承担责任,创造美好未来》。什么是长大?长大不只是身体的增高,不只是独立性的增强,而是学会承担责任。什么是责任?责任就是担当,就是付出,就是做好应当做好的工作,完成应当完成的使命,承担应当承担的后果。英国的查尔斯王子曾说过一句话:"有些事你可能不喜欢做,但你必须去做。这就是责任的全部意义。"每一个人都有一定的社会角色,每一种角色都被赋予了一定的责任内涵。一个有责任心的人,必定是一个敬业、主动、热忱、忠诚的人,一个力求完美的人,一个勇于担当的人。在徐州市儿童医院有这样一名医生,他每天有规律的上下班,工作认真敬业,生活平静如水。可是,从XX年7月,随着他所在的医院不断收治到"结石宝宝",他的生活开始起了波澜。他发现,最初的这7名患有结石病的患儿,有一个惊人的巧合:他们都吃了国产三鹿牌奶粉。此后,随着越来越多的病例放到他桌上,他感觉到形势的急迫。他积极联系自己在中华医学会的老师,希望进行权威性调查。为了更快地使更多的儿童免受侵害,他把自己的发现公开在博客里。他的言论在网上被疯狂转载。他顶着巨大的风险和压力,向国家质检总局实名举报了三鹿奶粉的质量问题,通过他的努力,终于把三鹿、三聚氰胺、结石宝宝这条隐秘的利益链条掀开。他叫冯东川,他因率先揭露三鹿奶粉事件,20xx年当选CCTV"十年法治人物".从冯东川身上我们看到了一种"苟利国家生死以,岂因祸福避趋之"担当精神,看到了一名医生的道德良知和强烈的社会责任感。
国旗下讲话是对学生进行思想道德教育的重要载体。与其他德育形式相比,对于培养师生爱国情感、帮助学生树立远大理想、促进良好校风的形成,传播正能量,国旗下讲话有其不可替代的价值。本文是小编为大家整理的初中国旗下讲话稿,仅供参考。初中国旗下讲话稿篇一:尊敬的各位老师、亲爱的同学们:大家好!今天我演讲的题目是《安全常系心中》。你们知道生活中什么最重要吗?是安全。只有保证我们生命和生活的安全,一切才有意义。当同学们听到有关小学生意外伤害事故时,不知道你们想了些什么。我想,同学们至少会想到:这些教训无论发生在谁的身上都会给受害者人身造成伤害、甚至死亡;会给受害者家庭造成极大的损失;会给学校正常教学秩序造成混乱;会给社会造成不稳定影响。安全问题关系到我们每一位学生的切身利益,只有安全才能为我们保驾护航。在这里,我向全体同学发出倡议:1、校内课间不追逐打闹,上下楼梯慢步轻声,靠右行。2、放学按时离校,不在校园内逗留。3、不到小摊小贩购买食物,不吃不洁食物,喝水要讲究卫生,注意身体健康。4、保证用电安全,不乱动电源插座。

The themes of this part are “Talk about how to become an astronaut” and “Talk about life in space”. As Neil Armstrong said “Mystery creates wonder and wonder is the basis of man’s desire to understand. Space is difficult for human to reach, therefore, humans are full of wonders about it. However, if wanting to achieve the dream of reaching the Moon, some of our human should work hard to be an astronaut at first. Part A(Talk about how to become an astronaut) is a radio interview in a radio studio, where the host asked the Chinese astronauts about his story how to become an astronaut. Yang Liwei told his dreamed to be an astronaut since childhood. Then he worked hard to get into college at 22. The next 10 years, he gradually became an experienced pilot.

点拨:旅游地旅游资源的特色不同,可以安排的旅游活动是不一样的,直接影响对旅游者的吸引力。因此,出游前首先就需要收集旅游地旅游资源的类型、主要游览景区、景点的特色等情况。旅游地的时空可达性直接关系到旅游者从出发地到旅游地,然后再返回出发地的费用和时间。一般来说,居住地与旅游地之间的空间距离过大,会使旅行的时间过长、旅行费用过高,经济距离增加,相应地降低了旅游者的出游能力。而居住地与旅游地相距遥远,也意味着两地之间巨大的环境差异,这会增加对游客的吸引力。旅游服务设施和条件,如旅游交通方式及工具、旅游住宿条件、旅游餐饮的种类和标准、导游服务、旅行费用等信息也都在一定程度上影响着游客的选择。图5.3西藏布达拉宫和图5.4云南香格里拉两幅图片显示了西藏布达拉宫、云南香格里拉与众不同的优美景观,吸引了众多的游客前来观光旅游,成为近年来国内旅游的热点。

The topic of this part is “Discover the reasons for festivals and celebrations.The Listening & Speaking & Talking part aims at talking about the experiences and feelings or emotions about the festivals and celebrations. This section aims at detecting the reason why the people celebrate the festivals, the time, the places, the types and the way of celebrations. It also explains why some traditions in the old celebrations are disappearing, like the firecrackers in the big cities and some new things are appearing like the prosperity of business or commerce. 1. Students can talk about what festivals they know and the reasons and the way of celebrating them.2. Students should learn the reading skills such as the headline and get the topic sentences, the structures of articles.3. Students can understand the past, the present situation of some festival around the world and why there are some changes about them. 4. Students can have the international awareness about the festivals.1. Students should learn the reading skills such as the headline and get the topic sentences, the structures of articles.2. Students can understand the past, the present situation of some festival around the world and why there are some changes about them.Step 1 Lead in---Small talkWhat festival do you like best ? Why ?I like the Spring Festivals because I can set off the fireworks, receive the lucky money and enjoy the Gala with my families.Step 2 Before reading---Pair workWhy do people celebrate different festivals ?The Spring Festivals is to celebrate the end of winter and the coming of spring and new life.The Mid-autumn Day is to celebrate the harvest and admire the moon.
The theme of this section is “Talk about festival activities and festival experiences”.Festival and holiday is a relaxing and interesting topic for students. This part talks about the topic from the daily life of students’. In the part A ---Listening and Speaking, there are three conversations among different speakers from three countries(Japan, Rio and China), where the speakers are participating in or going to participate in the festivals and celebrations. So listening for the relationship among them is a fundamental task. Actually, with the globalization and more international communication, it is normal for Chinese or foreigners to witness different festivals and celebrations in or out of China. In the Conversation 1, a foreign reporter is interviewing a Japanese young girl who just had participated in the ceremony of the Coming-of-Age Day on the street and asking her feeling about the ceremony and the afterwards activities. Conversation 2, Chinese girl Li Mei is witnessing the Rio Carnival for the first time, and her friend Carla gives her some advice on the costumes which enables her to match with the carnival to have a good time. Conversation 3, a Chinese guide is showing a group of foreign visitors around the Lantern Festival and introducing the customs of the festival to them. The three conversations have a strong vitality and insert the festival and cultural elements from different countries. So perceiving the festivals and cultures from different countries is the second task. At the same time, the scripts also insert the targeted grammar --- v-ing as attributive and predicative, which students can perceive and experience in a real context and make a road for the further study. That is the third task. In the Part B--- Listening and Talking, the theme is “Talk about festival experience”, which is the common topic in our daily conversations. During the conversation, Song Lin, a Chinese student, asked Canadian friend Max about how to spend Christmas. In the conversation, Song Lin talked about experience and the feelings during the Chinese Spring Festival, during which there are not only some enjoyable things but some unpleasant things. After the listening, perhaps students find there are some similarities between Christmas and the Chinese Spring Festival as there are some differences in the origins and celebrations. For example, people always visit friends and relatives, decorate their houses, have a big dinner together, chat and give presents to each other.
