From a methodological point of view to talk about your learning of modern Chinese history of this course Words 1500--2000

Study of history, especially modern Chinese history, can "know the past and learn from the present", "history as a mirror", to improve their own literary cultivation, but also to clarify the route, for the future development of accumulation of experience, pointing out the direction. In our 5,000 years of history, there are both glory and humiliation. We are proud of our splendor, and we are disappointed by our humiliation. In this semester, we started to study the modern Chinese history, which is a history of humiliation and blood and tears, according to our teacher. After studying the modern history of China, my greatest realization is: "Poverty and backwardness naturally lead to beatings!" The reason for China's poverty and backwardness is blind arrogance. The reason for China's poverty and backwardness is its blind arrogance, its closed-door policy, its lack of communication with the outside world, and its disdain for learning about the culture and science of what they called the "barbarians". The final result is that when other people's cannons are fired at their doorsteps, they still ask in fear, "What is this and why doesn't China have it? After studying the content of Modern Chinese History, it gave me a lot of inspiration and feelings. I feel very angry and hurt. This part of China's history is an unhealable pain in the hearts of the countrymen.

Once upon a time, China was so glorious that the earliest primitive man was in our country, and our country was also the first to enter the slave society. When we entered the feudal society, there are still many countries still stay in the slave society. Han Dynasty, a Silk Road let the world know China, Sui and Tang dynasties, China reached its heyday, high level of sealing construction, the invention of engraved printing, shining poetry, brilliant calligraphy and painting, the world's art treasures Mogao Grottoes, the grand and joyful music and dance, learned this, how proud we are. In the Ming Dynasty, Zheng He made seven trips to the West, creating another period of splendor. China is a shining pearl!

But all this has become the past, in the late Qing Dynasty, due to the emperor's mediocrity even ordered the closure of the country, which makes China gradually fall behind in the world. Opium War is the beginning of China's modern history, 1840, when the world's strongest in the capitalist countries ---- Britain, with foreign guns and foreign guns formally opened the door of the Qing Dynasty lockdown, at this time, we realize how backward we are, others have used foreign guns and foreign artillery, while our weapons are still stopped in the cold and earthenware cannon, in humiliation, we signed the first unequal treaty ---- "The Treaty of Nanjing". Treaty of Nanjing", this treaty has brought no small disaster to our country, it not only destroys the territorial sovereignty, but also brings the financial crisis, the people's burden ------ However, this is only the beginning of the nightmare, the second Opium War, the luxurious and spectacular Royal Garden - Yuanmingyuan destroyed, and, more and more countries began to Invasion of our country, more and more unequal treaties also came, then, our country is like a big fat half unarmed, waiting for the invaders to cut the occupation, our country at that time has slowly begun to fall into semi-colonial semi-feudal society. The defeat of the Sino-Japanese War and the signing of the Treaty of Shimonoseki greatly deepened our country's decline into a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society, followed by the Eight-Power Allied Forces' war of aggression against China and the signing of the Treaty of Simchatsuk, which made China completely degenerate into a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society.

This humiliating history can not be finished, today's China, gradually towards prosperity. Feeling China's modern history, is to make every Chinese feel ashamed of a period of history, but this history we should always remember, we only remember how we once backward, will be more hard work, feeling China's modern history, but also let us understand a truth: backwardness will be beaten. Why was once historically very strong China, to the modern era will be bullied, at the mercy of others, until finally reduced to semi-colonial and semi-feudal society, the economy and culture is very backward, so that the majority of the people live in deep water and extreme hardship? Why is it that under the leadership of the Party, China has undergone radical changes and is rapidly standing in the world's forefront? Why is it that under the leadership of the Party, our motherland has grown stronger and stronger, and its people have become the true masters of their own land? History as a lesson, so that we can clarify the direction, so that we can guard against arrogance and impatience.

At the same time, I also feel very moved because of the unyielding struggle of the Chinese people, for the rejuvenation of China, our great people fought relentlessly against imperialism and the incompetent and weak Qing government, and finally won the victory. The modern history of China, beginning with the Opium War of 1840, is a history of imperialist invasion of China, a history of the surrender and betrayal of a reactionary government, but at the same time it is also a history of the struggle of the Chinese people against imperialism and its lackeys and in pursuit of modernization!

Before the Opium War, the Qing Dynasty practiced a policy of closed-door self-defense, and the natural economy of self-sufficiency was absolutely dominant in the whole social economy. The feudal rule of the Qing Dynasty became more and more corrupt, and it was unable to resist foreign invasion, which provided an opportunity for the invasion of capitalism.

The Eight-Power Allied Forces invaded China, and the powerful Qing dignitaries led by Cixi fled to Xi'an. After the end of the war, Cixi went so far as to announce that she would "measure the material resources of China and make friends with other countries", fully exposing her ugly face as a lackey who knows no shame. After the Xinhai Revolution, the Northern Warlords, each supported by different imperialism, cut off one side of the war, the Northern Warlord government alternated like a lantern, the people suffered a lot.

At the very beginning of the invasion of foreign capitalism into China, the masses of the people took the exact opposite path from the reactionary rulers. When the feudal rulers were weak and compromised, the people took up the sacred task of defending the country and defending the interests of the nation.

The Chinese people of all races threw their heads, spilled their blood, went forward and backward, struggled valiantly and tenaciously, and at the cost of tens of millions of martyrs' sacrifices, saved the survival of the nation and averted the doom of becoming a colony. History has fully proved that no difficulties can defeat the Chinese people! The Chinese people are the greatest people! The Chinese people, the nation that cannot be defeated, is the greatest nation!

Study of history, especially modern Chinese history, not only can "know the past and learn from the present", "history as a mirror", to improve their own theoretical level, but also a comprehensive grasp of the national conditions, a correct understanding and consciously carry out the party's basic theory, the basic line, the basic program and the guidelines and policies, in order to build our country into a rich and strong, democratic and civilized socialist country and struggle.

Learning and studying modern history will not only make every Chinese person cherish the hard-won happiness of today, but will also stimulate our patriotic fervor and inspire a strong cohesion among the people of the country to selflessly devote all their wisdom and talents to the great cause of building a modernized socialist and powerful country.

At the same time, we must also soberly see that today's world is not peaceful, hegemony, power politics in the unscrupulous bullying, attempting to "Westernize", "divide" China's stubborn faction still exists. Therefore, we need to study the modern history of China more seriously, carry forward the spirit of patriotism, build our motherland stronger, so that the Chinese nation will always stand in the forest of the world's peoples!

China will not be defeated! The motherland will win!
