This hebdomad. I have read seven articles. but merely Eudora Welty’s ‘One Writer’s Beginnings” left a deep feeling on me because it made me remember my ain reading experience and instruction procedure when I merely saw the rubric of this article. I could non state I am a author. but I think I am a wholly reading lover. After reading the “One Writer’s Beginnings” . I think there is a small spot similar between Eudora Welty’s childhood and mine. However. possibly I did non hold the gift of composing. or I did non work hard plenty. In another word. I do non hold any advantages on composing. Following. I would wish to speak about my reading experience. which include three parts. reading before spells to school. reading during school clip. self-reading experience. Remember my reading experience over the old ages. book told me narratives. learn me knowledge. and ever around me. so I have to state that reading is a really gratifying thing. Remember it was when I came to Seattle non long. that was a sunshine afternoon. a cup of tea was in my manus. Many childs were playing and larking on the grass in forepart of my flat.
That scene made me remember to my childhood. When I was four old ages old. my female parent read to me merely like Eudora Welt’s female parent did. I tried my best to remember the scene in my head. I was sad to state I was excessively immature at that clip. so I do non retrieve her tone when she was reading to me. but I still retrieve the scene at the clip. I remember her face when she was reading. her somewhat overturned corners of the oral cavity while Robinson Crusoe saved a individual and called him Friday. I remember the air current with a swoon odor of the sea when she read the Treasure Island to me. and her cunning eyes when she read DR. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Reading was the memorable portion of my childhood. and I had the preliminary apprehension of reading. I want to state that my female parent was the first instructor of my life who taught me to read. When I was older. my household had to travel from Beijing to the ancient capital Nanjing because my male parent changed his occupation. My household did non hold much money. we had to take the “green train” ( the slowest and oldest train in China. ever crowded. most of riders do non hold seats. non in service right now ) . and unfortunate I had to go forth all my books.
Before we got on the train. my male parent bought me a really old book. the Three Kingdoms from a used books store. I had already known a few words at that clip. so my female parent allow me read by myself. which was the first clip I read without anyone’s aid. Indeed. I still did non plentiful of words. but it was truly aroused to state. I knew how to utilize a dictionary when I was immature. Until now. I still retrieve what the book looked like. it was non any images on the screen. merely the book’s name. “the Three kingdoms” on the dark bluish screen of the book. every page in this book was xanthous and unsmooth. the odor was non so good. it was smell like a mixture of soap and gasolene. However. I cherished this book. I slept with it. and sometimes I fantasized about the conflict scenes were described in the book. After that. I started to read some books that usage my father’s words “for men” . such as “the Art of War” . “the Old adult male and the Sea” and “the Sun Besides Rises” .
During my childhood. the books ever around me. they let me ever happy even in the tough environment. Furthermore. the books allow me understand this universe more than the other childs who were the same ages as me. I think these all attributed to my parents. Time flies. after lived in Nanjing for two old ages. Finally. I went to school. I was subsequently than other peer kids. At the beginning of the primary school. I could non accommodate to the reading method. Gradually. I started to recognize that reading in school was non for merriment. it was for analyzing. At school. I read a batch of articles and poesies such as Confucian Analects and Tang Poems. The classical Chinese is antic before I understood their thaumaturgy I did non believe it was reading. I even queried that is this Chinese? However. from the survey of bit by bit. I bit by bit could understand how beautiful are they. sometimes. Classical Chinese expresses artistic construct and feeling to depict a scene or a thing. Anyway. reading a classical Chinese’s article is an highly hard undertaking. except for the uncommon words. the most hard portion is experiencing.
It is deserving adverting that larning classical Chinese literature strengthened my foundation of reading and strengthened my apprehension of articles. allow me acquire the advantage on reading in the hereafter. Fortunately. they did non inquire me to read the classical Chinese article every twenty-four hours. I had found that I still can read for merriment even in school. I read a batch of Eastern and Western articles. the first book I read in school was Mark Twain’s the Adventures of Tom Sawyer. in this book I saw a existent individual who is guiltless and lively. is eager to take hazards. the chase of freedom called Tom Sawyer. After that. I started to read western literary classics such as Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte. Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen and Boule de Suif by Maupassant. For Eastern writer. I read about all of Lu Xun’s and Lao She’s articles. Lao She’s Rickshaw Boy was really celebrated. Reading this sort of literature allow me understand many things about our society and people.
The beautiful words in these articles aroused my desire for composing. In these old ages of reading experience. I tried to compose something by my ain. but my authorship accomplishments are non better any more. my female parent told me that I could compose a diary. I know it could be a good manner to better my composing accomplishments. but I ever lack a sort of doggedness to lodge to it. In my ain words. I think composing would be merriment. so I merely seek to compose something for merriment. and I besides think more reading will assist. Let me utilize the words from Eudora Welty’s One Writer’s Beginnings. “By now I do non cognize whether I could make either one. reading or authorship. without the other. ” I think here the writer points out that reading and composing is non separate. they are connected to each other. For me. I think I should compose pattern more for my authorship and have fun on that. For now. speak of my whole reading experience. no affair formal or informal. both are the cardinal hoarded wealth in my life. I hope one twenty-four hours. I can compose my narrative for other people to read. Possibly one twenty-four hours. I will hear the voice excessively. merely like Eudora Welty. In Eudora Welty’s article. she introduced the reading and composing experience to me. they are really worthy to me to larn.
