Second, overall perception.
1. This article is mainly about a distress of "I" and my comrades in the Sahara desert in Libya.
The article describes that Saint Exupery and his companions blindly fell into the Libyan desert during a flight. The air humidity 18%, and the remaining beverage is less than one liter. It is just an illusion to expect the plane to find two black spots among thousands of black spots from the desert at a depth of 3 thousand kilometers. However, they have not given up their expectation of life. They run around in the barren desert, confused by a mirage, looking for traces in the sand, pinning their hopes on dew, and expecting a swaying camel team to rescue them in the vast sand sea.
When the author's plane crashed in the middle of the desert, he was in danger: cold, seriously short of water, whipped by the cold wind, nowhere to hide, dying.
★★★★ The author's psychological change process: pain-despair-calmness-pride, no regrets, optimism-regaining courage.
★★★★ The reasons why the author can change from despair and pain to calm and optimistic:
The author thinks that his death was caused by human endurance, not his fault. If he can go back, he will make a comeback. His adventure is to find his own truth and a sense of responsibility to mankind. He thought that dying for the fate of mankind was a fair death, so he didn't complain. ⑤ 20,21,in which "I" look forward to the dew in the morning to bring hope for life and emphasize our thirst for water in the desert. In short, it shows that "I" have firm confidence, continue to find a way out, and have full confidence in survival.
The author used a lot of space to express his feelings when facing death threats. What do you think of the author after reading this inner monologue?
Love life, cherish life, but dare to sacrifice for the cause; Full of passion, persistent pursuit, poetic life; Love human beings and have a sense of responsibility.
3. How does the author understand the significance of exploration?
Adventure, not to seek excitement, not to show personal extraordinary courage, but out of dedication to society, out of a sense of responsibility for the benefit of mankind.
Fortunately, at last they met a caravan and were rescued. He once wrote such a wonderful sentence:
Pilots use airplanes as a tool to compete with obstacles. They fly in the sky of Wan Li, hanging in the clouds, fighting with mountains, oceans and storms. Colorful land and sky, sparkling sea, golden morning and sunset, these charming scenery, are they the shelter of life or the temptation of death? The sun they saw was a bright sun after a starry night. The land they see is the quiet land they see after crossing the storm and lightning; The people they see are all kind people lost in the ice and snow and the desert wilderness.
Under this harsh professional training, after many struggles of life and death, what is the meaning of life, the value of action and the spiritual connotation that Saint Exupery showed us? The teacher saw in him that the meaning of life lies in a responsibility to life and others. What else can we get:
Have the confidence to overcome difficulties. In adversity, you should see the hope of life. Have a positive and optimistic attitude in trouble. The value of life lies in discovery. The meaning of life lies in a responsibility to life and others.
3. Ask questions and understand key sentences
1, "My blood is not smooth due to lack of water, and I have a chill, but it's not just cold at night."
The low temperature and serious water shortage in the desert at night make the author feel unbearable cold, and the danger of death makes the author feel desperate, which is a true portrayal of the danger facing the author.
2. "The cold wind came straight at me like a cavalry on the plain, so I had to turn around to avoid its attack."
Using metaphor and personification, the harsh desert environment and the author's feelings are vividly expressed. The tone is not heavy, but rather funny, which shows the author's calm and optimistic spirit.
3. "We look forward to dawn just like farmers look forward to spring, and we look forward to stopovers just like looking forward to a blessed land. We seek our own truth among the stars. "
Precious dew only appears at dawn, which represents the hope of life, so the author says that looking forward to dawn is like farmers looking forward to promising spring; The midway station sustains the life of the pilot, so the author says that looking forward to the midway station is like looking forward to a blessed land. These two sentences reflect the author's love for life. "Stars" represent nature, and "seeking truth among stars" is to realize the value of life in the struggle with nature. This sentence reflects the author's pride in his pursuit.
4. "I have no regrets. I struggled, but failed, which is often the case with people in our industry. However, I finally breathed the sea breeze. "
The author thinks that his career is meaningful, and he has realized the value of life without wasting it, so even if he fails or even sacrifices his life, he has no regrets.
Third, expand and extend.
1.In 2002, there were five college students in the Shanyingshe mountaineering team of Peking University, and they were caught in an avalanche while climbing Maxi Peak in Xixia State, Tibet. Two of them are dead and three are missing. After the mountain disaster, many people began to think about the significance of college students' mountaineering. What do you think of this?
People who disagree think that college students do not have the professional qualities of mountaineers and should not participate in extreme sports of this major. They are making fun of their lives.
The proponents believe that mountaineering embodies a positive spirit of exploration, and it is not unreasonable for college students, as pioneers of the times, to use this spirit to motivate themselves and participate in mountaineering.
2. There are many beautiful poems describing the desert in China's classical poems:
Wang Wei wrote in the poem "To Frontier Fortress" that "the desert is lonely and straight, and the long river sets the yen", which shows that the yellow sand is vast and magnificent.
Wang Changling's "Joining the Army" "Qinghai has a long snowy mountain, and the lonely city looks at Yumenguan. The poem "Yellow Sand penetrates the golden armor in hundreds of battles, but Loulan can't be returned" shows the grand ambition of the soldiers to defend their country.
3. Imitate and write according to the following sentences.
We look forward to dawn just like farmers look forward to spring, we look forward to stopovers just like looking forward to a blessed land, and we look for our own truth among the stars.
For example, we are eager for knowledge as hungry people are eager for bread, we are eager for progress as we are eager to thrive, and we are looking for ideals on the road.
Fourth, class summary.
1. The road of life will not be Ma Pingchuan, nor will it be smooth sailing. Everyone likes a different life, and everyone has a different understanding and understanding of a successful life, which is a sign of human progress and cultural diversity. We don't insist on consistency, as long as it is conducive to personal development and to the overall life and attitude of mankind, it is desirable and should be respected. I think what is important for the study of this article is not the understanding of the text, but the transformation of this spirit and concept into one's own behavior and ability. Please remember:
Facing life, being open-minded and not looking on, just like plum blossoms standing proudly in frost and snow, released calmly in the crystal clear of plain snow, watching spring alone despite changes; Facing life, it is refreshing but not indifferent, just like a lofty stream, washing everything in a soothing whisper and singing all the way at any time.
2. What kind of life do you yearn for? What is success in life?
Divergence angle 1: I yearn for a vigorous life, and achieving great things is a sign of success in life. There was Qin Shihuang in ancient times and Mao Zedong today. They used their wisdom and courage to promote the progress of history. They are my heroes.
Divergence angle 2: I like a quiet life, and doing nothing is the success of life. Although there are many outstanding figures in human beings, most of them are ordinary. These people are the foundation of human groups. Without the silent dedication of these ordinary people, it is difficult for heroes to succeed.
Divergence angle 3: I like a life with more wealth, and the amount of wealth is a sign of success or failure in life. Because in today's commodity economy society, people's lives are based on material wealth. Without wealth, nothing else can be discussed. With wealth, human spiritual civilization, ecological civilization and political civilization will be improved.
Divergence Angle 4: I like poetic life, spiritual abundance and spiritual pleasure are my pursuit, and smiling at the world is proof of my happiness.
