第一篇:我爱作文
I Love composition
It was the first year I went to the Female Normal University ,the Chinese teacher told us ,''you are undergraduate students now, you can draft the title yourself,you should hand in at least seven or eight articles,the more the better ,however,there is a requirement that is every piece is good article and you can't slight over.''
“Teacher ,how could I do if i am incapable to do it ?”a classmate whose name is unknown to others asked suddenly.“How could pass into the university if you don't have ability to write it ?your article should have been written through long since middle school days,you come to the university ,i just want you to do the further research.To write a good article depends on your own strive ,I am helplessness.”
“Teacher is too polite”,it is another classmate's low voice.“Teacher,is our article written in class or after class?”,this fool question was asked me,a country girl,I didn't feel embarrassed when some student looked at me and think their laugh is redundant.“It all depends on yourself,you could do it here if you like write article in class,to write your favourite theme,I should go now.”
When seeing the sight his back disappearing at the corner of the corridor,thereupon,two third of us classmates followed him,one student siting in my right hand asked me silently.“what's your title?” “Mother's Looking Forward to Her Not Returning Son.”I answered herwithout a hesitate.“Is this a novel?” “No!It is a lyrical essay.”I was really cheerful for the first advantage of being a undergraduate student is that you have many freedom such as composition.I remembered when I was in the middle school the most nerve-racking thing is that the Chinese teacher would not give us the topic until the composition class was coming.if he gave us two or three topics, you can choose it yourself,however , sometimes,he only gave us one like If You Review What You Have Learned You Can Get Something New;Every Citizen Has the Responsibility For the Destiny of a Country;The Feeling on National Day.This king of topic made me have a headache when I see it.I like teacher let us know the the topic several days before the class.I preferred the topic such as lyrical,descriptive and narrative to argumentative ones because our enthusiastic teenagers are keen on this kind of articles and also like to write their own affection,thoughts as well as life.Only in this way can we write a
good composition.If we are forced to press some hollow and empty theory in our head,we can't write a good article and it is a kind of invisible mental abuse to these students.In my school days,I love to write what I like the best,later ,when I became a teacher,I kept this maxim in my mind deeply that“Don't do what you don't like to others”,I never hurt their brain.Sometimes , I gave them 20 or 30 topic to choose,I would let them to decide their topic on their appetite.Occasional,they also let me modificate their love letters,to tell the truth ,it was more fluently than their usual composition.As mentioned before,what made me happiest is that I had the freedom of writing after I became a undergraduate student.I had a tough time during this period of time, both poor and busy.I was too poor to take streetcar and busy in correcting the paper and preparing lessons,however,I still can't finish my work.When I was a freshman at the university,I teach Chinese at two middle school classes.It was too risky for me , acountry girl just step out of the middle school ,to teach those tall and big northern youth,it no wonder that they would call me “children sir”.

那是我初进女师大①的第一年,国文老师对我们说:
“现在你们是大学生了②,作文题目可以由你们自己拟,每学期至少要交七八篇文章③,多多益善;但是有个条件,篇篇都要好文章,不可敷衍。”“老师④,不会作的怎么办呢?”
有位不知姓名的同学忽然这样问。
“不会作,怎么考进大学的?你们的文章,在中学时代应该早就写通了,到大学校来,老师不过是指导你们做更深一层的研究;文章写得好不好,还得你们自己努力,我是无能为力的。”
“老师太客气了。”
是另一位同学低微的声音。
“老师,我们的作文是在课堂上作,还是在课外作呢?”
这是我这个乡下姑娘发出的愚问⑤,有几位同学望着我笑了;可是我并不感到难为情,反而觉得她们的笑是多余的。
“随便,爱在课堂上作的,就在这里作好了,写你们最爱写的题材,我走了。”望着老师的背影,消逝在长廊的转弯处,于是有三分之二的同学也跟着走了;一位坐在我右边的同学悄悄地问我:
“你作什么题目?”
“《望断天涯儿不归》。⑥”
我毫不犹豫地回答她。
“是小说吗?”
“不!是一篇抒情的小品文。”
我高兴极了!真的,做了大学生的第一个好处是:有了许多自由,譬如作文,就是一个例子。记得我在中学读书的时候,最感到伤脑筋的是:国文老师临到作文课时,才在黑板上出一个题目,有的一次出两三个,可以由你自己选择;有的只出一个,什么《温故知新⑦说》;《国家兴亡,匹夫有责⑧论》;《国庆感言》„„一类的题目,叫人一见便头痛。我喜欢老师在作文的前几天就把题目预告,而且最好多出些抒情、描写、记述一类的题目,少作议论文;因为青年人最热情,他欢喜读抒情、描写一类的文章,也喜欢发挥自己的情感和抱负。我们只有写自己真实的感情,真实的思想,真实的生活,才能把文章写得好;如果硬要由脑筋里压榨出一些什么空空洞洞的理论来⑨,不但文章写不好,而且对于这些学生,简直是一种无形的精神虐待⑩!在学生时代,我喜欢写自己最爱写的东西;后来到了我当教师的时候,就深深地记着“己所不欲,勿施于人”的格言,我绝不伤害他们的脑筋⑾;有时一次出二三十个题目,由他们自由去选择,或者干脆由他们自己作主,爱写什么就写什么。他们写的情书,偶然也给我修改;说真话,那比他们平时的作文写得流利多了。
前面说过,我当了大学生之后,别的没有什么高兴,最使我觉得快乐的是我有了写作的自由。这个时期,我的生活苦极了,又穷又忙;穷的连坐电车的钱也没有,忙到夜以继日地改卷子,预备功课,还不能把工作完成。原来当我在大一的时候,就兼了两班中学国文;说起来真太冒险了,自己还是个刚跨出中学不久的乡下姑娘,去教那些又高又大的北方青年⑿,怪不得他们要叫我“孩子先生”了⒀。
I Love Composition
Xie Bingying
At the beginning of my first year at Peking Women’s Normal University, our teacher of Chinese said to the class,“Now that you’re university students, you may write on any subject of your own choice.You must each hand in for each semester at least seven or eight compositions.The more, the better.But, mind you, each composition should be well written, not slipshod.”
“Sir, what if it’s beyond my ability to do so?” a classmate, whose name was not personally known to me, suddenly asked.“Beyond your ability? Then how did you pass the examination for admission to the university? You’re supposed to have learned composition as long ago as your middle school days.A university teacher’s job is little more than giving you guidance in advanced studies.It’s up to you to improve your writing ability.I’m in no position to do much to help you.”
“You’re too modest, sir, ” mumbled another classmate.“Sir, shall we do the writing in the classroom or after school?”
That was a silly question raised by my humble self, a country girl.Some classmates started giggling at me.But I wasn’t embarrassed at all.On the contrary, I thought their giggling was totally uncalled for.“Do as you please.It’s OK if you want to do it in the classroom.But write on a subject most favourite to you.Well, see you!”
We watched him passing out of sight around a corner of the long corridor.Thereupon, two thirds of the students also left the classroom.A student sitting on my right asked me in a whisper,“What are you going to write about?”
“Mother’s Longing for the Return of Her Wandering Child,” I answered without the slightest hesitation.“A short story?”
“No.It’s a lyrical essay.”
I was overjoyed at the advantages enjoyed by university students.First of all, we were given more freedom to do what we thought best.The composition class was just one example.I remembered what had annoyed me most in middle school was that the teachers of Chinese then never gave us composition subjects in advance.They would write a subject on the blackboard at the last minute when they came to meet the class.Some of them gave two or three subjects for us to choose from.Some gave us only one subject like Learn the New by Reviewing the Old, The Destiny of the Nation Is the Concern of Every Citizen, Thoughts on National Day, etc., all of which I found extremely boring.I preferred our teacher to make public the composition subject several days before the class met.I preferred lyrical, descriptive and narrative subjects to argumentative ones because being enthusiastic, young people are fond of lyrical and descriptive writings and also eager to write about their own emotions and aspirations.Only by giving a true account of our feelings, thoughts and life, can we
produce good writings.Forcing students to do hollow theorizing in composition will not only fail to improve their writing ability but also subject them, so to speak, to an ordeal of invisible mental abuse.In my school days, I chose to write on whatever subject I liked best.Later, when I became a school teacher, I, by keeping firmly in mind the maxim “Do not do to others what you do not want done to yourself”, always took care not to impose on my students anything that would cause mental torture.Sometimes, I would set 20-30 subjects for them to select from.Sometimes, I would just let them decide on a subject by themselves so that they could write about anything as they pleased.Occasionally, they even let me polish up the love letters penned by themselves, which, to tell you the truth, would read much more smoothly than the compositions they usually did.As mentioned above, after I became a university student, there was nothing more agreeable to me than the freedom I enjoyed in writing.During this period, being poor and busy, I lived a hard life.I was so hard up that I couldn’t even afford the streetcar fare.And though I worked nonstop day and night, I still felt hard pressed for time to finish correcting papers and preparing lessons.That was because while I was a first-year student at the university, I concurrently taught Chinese at two middle schools.Just imagine a country girl fresh from middle school having the audacity to teach those husky young northerners!They certainly had every reason to call me “Child Teacher”.点评
谢冰莹于1929年5月从上海到达北平,不久考入北京女子师范大学,《我爱作文》是她在这时期写的一篇散文。作者对当时学校作文教学的一些看法,至今仍有参考价值。
①“女师大”指当时的“北京女子师范大学”,故译Peking Women’s Normal University。
②“现在你们是大学生了”意即“由于你们是大学生了”,故译Now that you’re university students,其中Now that(或Now)作“因为”解,等于Because。此句也可以这样处理:Now, as university students…。
③“每学期至少要交七八篇文章”译为You must each hand in for each semester at least seven or eight compositions,其中for each semester也可简化为each semester。
④“老师”不宜译为teacher,因teacher还没有变成Dr.、Judge、Professor等有尊敬含义的习用称呼,故译为Sir(姑且把“老师”定为男性)。
⑤“这是我这个乡下姑娘发出的愚问”译为That was a silly question raised by my humble self,a country girl,其中用my humble self(敝人)代替myself,略带俏皮,符合原文的内涵。
⑥“望断天涯儿不归”译为Mother’s Longing for the Return of Her Wandering Child,是参照作者当时为逃避母亲为她包办的婚姻而流落他乡的背景而译的。⑦“温故知新”译为Learn the New by Reviewing the Old,等于Learn New Things by Reviewing What Has Been Learned Before。
⑧“国家兴亡,匹夫有责”译为The Destiny of the Nation Is the Concern of Every Citizen,其中The Destiny也可改用The Rise and Fall。
⑨“如果硬要由脑筋里压榨出一些什么空空洞洞的理论来”意即“如果强迫学生在作文时从事空洞的议论”,故译Forcing students to do hollow theorizing in composition,其中hollow和empty同义;theorizing的意思是“议论”。
⑩“而且对于这些学生,简直是一种无形的精神虐待”译为but also subject them,so to speak,to an ordeal of invisible mental abuse,其中插入语so to speak或so to say是成语,作“可以这么说”、“恕我直言”等解,用以表达原文的“简直”。又an ordeal(折磨)是译文中的增益成分,原文虽无其词而有其意。
⑾“我绝不伤害他们的脑筋”意即“我绝不强迫他们做伤脑筋的事”,故译took care not to impose on my students anything that would cause mental torture。⑿“说起来真太冒险了,自己还是个刚跨出中学不久的乡下姑娘,去教那些又高又大的北方青年”意即“自己是刚从中学毕业的乡下姑娘,竟敢去教那些又高又大的北方青年”,故译Just imagine a country girl fresh from middle school having the audacity to teach those husky young northerners,其中Just imagine(想一想)是译文中的增益成分;fresh from…的意思是“刚从„„毕业的”;having the audacity to…的意思是“胆敢从事„„”
⒀“怪不得他们要叫我‘孩子先生’了”,意即“他们完全可以喊‘孩子先生’”,故译They certainly had every reason(或good reason)to call me “Child Teacher”。

我爱作文
我是一个爱作文,更爱写作文的女孩。
我爱作文,因为作文是生活的根本。在生活中,我们总会互相交流吧!交流,也就是一个人的基本作文水平。你学了说话,才会作文,那么,交流就是作文的根本,那作文怎么不是生活的根本呢?
我爱作文,因为作文是语文的基本功。我们学习语文,要学些什么呢?无疑是众多的写作手法,说明方法等。比如写改病句,判断下面的句子运用了什么修辞手法,这不就是我们要学会写作文的吗??还有阅读等,也是判断一个人对于写作的知识有没有完全了解。那作文怎么不是语文的基本功呢??我爱作文,因为作文能给我带来无穷的乐趣。每当写作文时,我都感觉像是在讲自己的心事。我写作文,是想写出真情实感,我希望,当作者读我的作文时,不是普通的浏览,而是与我的心灵在交通,与我的灵魂在交通!这种感受,比交到一个知己还要快乐。那作文怎么没给我带来乐趣呢?
我爱作文,我愿用我的一生去爱她,用我的灵魂去感受她!我爱作文,永远!

第四篇:我爱作文
作文,它可以说是我多彩童年中必不可少的一部分。我爱作文,不仅因为它可以带给我创作成功那一刻的喜悦,更重要的是它可以让我学到更多知识。现在,我,离不开它;它,也离不开我了。它像一面镜子,照出了我的优点,能够让我继续发扬我的长处;同时也更加深刻的让我了解到了我的不足与缺点,让我能够优美的词句来弥补我的过失。因此,我爱作文,因为它可以使我更优秀。
作文,可以开拓我们的思路。我记得唐代诗人刘禹锡曾说过:片言可以明百意,坐驰可以役万里。意思是说:写作要语言精炼,可以锻炼我们的思维能力。我也记得唐代诗人杜甫曾说过:落笔成风雨,诗成泣鬼神。意思就是说:一下笔就能使风雨为之惊动,诗或文章写后能使鬼神为之哭泣。这句诗也用来形容创作有力量、有力度,能打动人心;也可以用来形容诗、文富有艺术感染力。以上这些诗句用来形容美文、美诗……可一点都不过分啊!可见写作是多么富有感染力、吸引力!因此,我爱作文,因为它的魅力是无穷的。
作文,它像一位我的知心朋友。每当我不开心时,我可以毫无保留的向它倾诉,它毫无怨言;每当我心情舒畅时,我也可以告诉它,它也很高兴与我一起分享我的喜悦。因此,我爱它,因为它是亲切的。
作文,它分许多种类型,而我们最早接受的也就是日记了。我们之所以写日记原因有二,一是回顾、记录当天发生的事情;二是锻炼我们的语言表达能力。我从小对写日记一点兴趣都没有。我一直认为当天发生的事只要自己知道、记住就可以了,何必花费我们的休息的时间把它记下来呢?而且还要让别人看,多不好啊,那隐私不就全曝光了吗?可爸爸妈妈一直不厌其烦的教导我,让我要把写日记当作生活中的一部分。如果这样坚持下去,不仅可以锻炼自己的文笔,还可以学到更多之诗,岂不一举两得?我知道爸爸妈妈的良苦用心,也知道他们是为我好。所以,我每天睡前都要把当天发生的事记录下来。久而久之,一本厚厚的日记本就这样被我记到了最后一页。虽然我写的很多都是流水账,可看着我笔下的日子是那样,精彩,我还是乐不可言。从此以后,我的日记更加丰富多彩了,而且我的作文水平也提高了一大截。因此,我爱作文,因为它赋予了我更多知识。作文,它还给予了我许多荣誉,给了我许多快乐。每当我捧着奖杯、奖状站在领奖台上时,我走要感谢它,时它帮我争取了这些令人眼花缭乱的荣誉啊!因此,我爱作文,因为它使我更加夺目耀眼!
我把写作当作享受,因为——它是快乐的!
