无数人咏叹太阳和月亮，留下了美好的诗篇。作者在特殊的年代里，对着这永恒的星球发出了自己的感叹。在《日》中，作者显然在飞蛾扑火、夸父逐日中寄托着深意；而寒夜里面对如镜的凉月，想起了嫦娥奔月，又是一种别样的心情。（板书课题）

6、（师生）释疑解惑。全班同学之间进行交流补充，完成任务，明确答案：

四、梳理归纳

7、（师生共同）梳理归纳（相关知识点）。（学生板书）

(1)巴金(1904～2005)，原名李尧棠，字芾甘。四川成都人。现、当代著名文学家。早年在南京东南大学附中学习，后赴法国巴黎学习。回国后长期从事著译。代表作有长篇小说《激流三部曲》（《家》《春》《秋》)、《爱情三部曲》（《雾》《雨》《电》)，中篇小说<憩园>和随笔集。其散文思想深刻，语言优美，具有很高的艺术成就。

(2)《日》写了飞蛾扑火和夸父追日以及物和人对光和热的追求，为下文的议论作铺垫。

表现作者对人生的思考：生命是可贵的，但光明更为可贵，为了追求光明，一个真正的人应该勇于牺牲生命。

《月》写了我面对一轮皓月时的遐想、凉月带给我的感受和姮娥奔月的传说。

(3)《日》表现了巴金激情澎湃的一面；而《月》集中体现了巴金细腻幽静的另

一面。虽然风格不同，但作者的感情却是一以贯之的。无论是扑向灯火的飞蛾，还是渴死在旸谷的夸父，还是希望可以用自己的一己之力改变现状的姮娥，他们都代表着一种力，一种向上的、不屈不挠的力，是作者对人生、对生活的一种希望和信念。

(4)、①“飞蛾”为什么值得赞美？

因为飞蛾为了追求光和热，将身子扑向灯火，或者浸在油中，这是为了追求光明，不惜牺牲自我的一种伟大行为。

②、在叙述完夸父、飞蛾之后，为什么作者笔锋忽然一转，说起了“为着追求光和热，人宁愿舍弃自己的生命？”

因为前面所说的夸父和飞蛾都是为了后面的铺垫而产生的，目的是引出后面的这句话，这才是作者要表达的重点，为着追求光和热，不惜牺牲自己的生命，这是作者理想中的人格。

③、如何理解“没有了光和热，这人间不是会成为黑暗的寒冷世界吗？” 这是本文要表达的中心，正是为了整个世界的光明和热力，才会有飞蛾、夸父的牺牲行为。他们热烈追求光和热的行为，一方面是自己本身的向往，另一方面也是为了整个世界不被黑暗所笼罩。

④、“月的光是死的光”，表达了作者怎样的思想感情？

作者在前面已经用了很多语言描述自己在月光中清冷的感受，于是在这里才会说出这句话。他表达了作者对光和热的一种向往和渴求，与前文的《日》有相通的地方。而不是像以往的文学家那样只是歌颂月亮、赞美月亮。

⑤、为什么作者在《月》的末尾引用“姮娥奔月”的传说？

因为姮娥也是为了某种理想，为了可以改变月光的冰冷，为了使这个已死的星球再生而奔月的。虽然作者用的是疑问的语气，但是在姮娥的身上，作者也寄托了自己的人格理想。

⑥、作者写“日”，却用主要的篇幅来赞美飞蛾扑火，这是为什么？课文中写道：“生命是可爱的。但寒冷的、寂寞的生，却不如轰轰烈烈的死。”联系特定的时代背景，你如何理解作者的这种人生追求？

因为这里的飞蛾已不仅仅是一个单纯的生物，它寄托了作者的理想，它成为了一种象征，是为了追求光明不惜牺牲自己生命的美好人格的象征。作者写的虽然是 3

“日”，但主要写的却是飞蛾努力追求“日”，追求光和热的行为。联系当时的时代背景，《日》和《月》都是在四十年代初期完成的，当时抗战正进入一个比较艰苦的阶段。全国人民包括巴金都在企盼胜利的到来，因此可以理解巴金为什么歌颂光明，赞美那些为了追求光和热不惜牺牲自己的人。

⑦、月亮在这里带给作者最突出的感觉是什么？你是通过文章中的哪些描写体会出来的？这里所表现的意境，能使你联想起古诗中的哪些诗句？

月亮带给作者最突出的感觉是冰冷。文中多处提到，如“寒夜对镜，只觉冷光扑面”，“面对凉月”、“我望着明月，总觉寒光冷气浸入我的身体”，“月光冷得很”,“月的光是死的光”等等。

这种意境使人想起李白的“床前明月光，疑是地上霜”；苏轼的“高处不胜寒，起舞弄清影，何似在人间”；李商隐的“晓镜但愁云鬓改，夜吟应觉月光寒”等。

⑧、如何理解“日”、“飞蛾”、“夸父”、“姮娥”等的象征意义？ 这些人和物都寄托了作者的理想，表达了作者追求光明、拒绝寒冷的思想感情。（教学中，首先引导学生了解这些神话传说）。

8、小组讨论（根据其他同学整理归纳的板书，查漏补缺）

10、讲解点评

教师对学生做题的情况进行讲解点评。

七、总结评价

11、课堂小结：

<短文两篇>是巴金建国前创作的散文诗。它散发着作者忧郁而热情的青春气息。《日》表现作者热情洋溢的一面，在那个“没有了光和热”，只有“黑暗的寒冷世界”，“我愿做人间的飞蛾”，“飞向火热日球”，宁愿舍弃自己的生命，表现了作者对真理的追求。

《月》则表现作者细腻幽静的一面，作者赞颂妲娥为了一个不知名的理想而放 4

弃原有的一切，“妄想”改变“月”这个冰冷的星球。妲娥是作者理想精神的化身。

这两篇短文都表现了作者对人生、对生活的一种希望和信念。
