(A) topic understanding

Traditional culture refers to the civilization formed by a country or nation in the long-term generation, which embodies the unique aesthetic taste of this country or nation. It is the concentrated expression of national spirit, temperament, quality and integrity, and also the accumulation of ordinary people's daily life.

China's traditional culture has a long history and is profound. In fact, we can feel the breath of traditional culture anytime and anywhere. It jumps on the sad and beautiful bowstring of the national musical instrument Erhu, flashes on the colorful faces of the quintessence of Beijing Opera, blooms in colorful folk festivals and spreads in popular poems in China ... In short, traditional culture permeates all aspects of our lives.

(2) Writing skills

The content of traditional culture is vast, and it is impossible to cover all the contents in one article. Therefore, when writing a composition, you need to pay attention to the following points:

1. Turn the virtual into the real, and interpret the abstract with concrete.

"Traditional culture" is an abstract concept. When writing, we should turn the concept into everything, and use specific cultural forms-poetry, painting, calligraphy, Four Treasures of the Study, tea art, Beijing opera, embroidery, folk festivals, paper-cutting and shadow play to interpret the connotation of abstract concepts and turn the abstract into concrete, which will broaden our thinking space and give full play to our advantages.

2. See the big from the small, and touch all kinds of "customs" with "details"

The language in the article, like clothes in the human body, not only has the function of expressing feelings and expressing personality, but also has the function of embellishment and modification. A lace, a button, a hollow design and a hanging ornament can make you charming and different. "Small" design shows "big" wisdom. The details of the article can also show the author's ingenuity.

3.99 as one, points and buckles show keen thinking.

On this topic, students' writing scope is very wide, and their writing ideas are also relatively broad. However, whether it is the exquisiteness of writing paper-cuts, the magic of changing faces in Sichuan opera, the elegance of calligraphy and painting, the popularity of writing folk festivals, the long history of poetry art and so on. Finally, it will come down to the topic of "traditional culture", from which we can dig out some "* * *" things of traditional culture and reflect its "charm".

4. There are various writing styles-it is important to be related to the theme.

You can write prose, focusing on creating a beautiful artistic conception: when writing folk festivals, you should write joyfully and joyfully, appealing to both refined and popular tastes, so that people can experience the cohesion and inclusiveness of national culture in a beautiful atmosphere of excitement, gongs and drums and national celebration. Of course you can't use dry language.

You can write argumentative papers, such as how traditional culture is passed down from generation to generation and never dies; On the blending and collision between traditional culture and modern culture-also on the world status and influence of traditional culture.

You can also write a narrative or conceive a short story, such as

(1) The new story endows the ancient myths and legends with distinct modern significance, to show people's pursuit of truth, goodness and beauty, and to reflect ordinary people's traditional and simple pursuit of life.

(2) Foreigners learn art, and through a foreigner who has gone through "hardships" and made countless jokes, they should also learn the stories of oriental culture that haunt him to show the foreign influence of traditional culture.

(3) People's life: Traditional culture and customs, such as window cutting, yangko dancing, boating, walking on stilts, juggling, lion dancing, playing dragon lanterns, performing social fires, visiting flower markets and temple fairs, have penetrated into the real life of ordinary people.

[Students ask questions]

1. only "introduces" some traditional festivals in general, and lacks its own "understanding" of the cultural significance of these festivals. Write a festival, focusing on the "activities" related to the festival, and never "express" the "charm" or "cultural significance" of the festival. Choosing to write "poetry" cannot summarize the * * * characteristics of classical poetry. It's just a kind of "content introduction" or "technique explanation", and some of them don't even have the word "sensibility"-the metrical beauty of classical poetry is naturally different from that of foreign poetry. What are the characteristics of "farewell poems" and "frontier poems" in Tang Dynasty? What is the cultural significance of this feature?

2. "Tradition" should have "characteristics": the material selection is atypical and there is no "characteristics", so it is naturally difficult to connect with traditional culture; Some materials are typical, but they don't grasp the "characteristics" of festivals and can't dig out the connection between a festival and traditional culture. Festivals such as "Cold Food Festival" and "Dragon Boat Festival" are actually a commemorative culture. The reason why it has continued to this day can be seen from the quality factors of the Chinese nation's pursuit of remoteness and respect for festival and righteousness. "Mid-Autumn Festival" highlights the word "circle". The round moon and moon cakes are full of the Chinese nation's stable, calm, harmonious and beautiful aesthetic taste and pursuit.

3. "Tradition" should be "different" from other nationalities and foreign countries. This has actually told us that we can reflect the differences between China and foreign countries and reflect the national characteristics through "comparison". Few people use this method in their compositions.

4. Music, painting, calligraphy, sculpture and architecture. Belonging to art, if you don't have a certain understanding of related aspects, try not to choose writing, otherwise you will think "atmosphere" and "heavy", but the result is "average".

Fairy drifting for thousands of years

I don't know when you suddenly appear; I don't know where it is, but you start to shine.

Walking from the depths of history, with the immortal works of the sages, he approached me gently. I have to say, he is an elf.

Perhaps it was in ancient times, or even beyond, that you began to become popular among the people. But I really knew you when I was reading the Book of Songs. Poetry 305 is indeed a kind of culture, which has created the road of realistic poetry.

You were depressed in the battle of the Seven Heroes in the Warring States, but when the war subsided and the first emperor ruled the country, you quietly took Li Sao on the road again. This is for you. I have to say that it is a very considerable wealth, because Li Sao initiated romanticism. To this day, she still shines like gold. I have to admire you, because what can stand the precipitation of time is often eternal. And you have a unique eye. As early as 1000 years ago, you took Li Sao in with Qu Yuan's resentment and grievance.
