I saw a college entrance examination essay topic posted in the comment area.
Some readers asked me to give a brief analysis, so I will talk about the angle.
Remember, the materials for college entrance examination essays are always just the starting point. The key is that the questions they give are the questions.
One is copying, the other is borrowing, and the other is original based on the situation... This phenomenon can also be enlightened in a wider field.
The above keywords are all given to you.
So if I were to break the point, it would be that copying is copying, application is learning, and originality is the way to go.
But this is a process... In the end, like Baoyu, we have to take an original path that suits the situation, which is the most appropriate.
Then, you can extend from the field of literary creation to other fields.
Scientific and technological innovation, our country's scientific research path, begins with the translation of foreign patent documents. In the global market division of labor system, it proceeds from learning, imitation, reference, and originality, and finally develops an independent and original path for our country's scientific research.
Aerospace, supercomputing, and chips can all be used as examples...
You can write about cultural innovation, that is, strengthening cultural self-confidence and insisting on exploring the advanced national culture from the treasure house of excellent traditional culture of the Chinese nation, but you must also have an open, tolerant and learn-from-behind mentality.
What belongs to the nation is what belongs to the world. From the New Culture Movement, in the backward late Qing Dynasty, which completely negated our own Confucian culture, Mr. De and Mr. Sai, to the Beiyang respect for Confucius, and then to the Cultural Revolution after the founding of New China, In the 1980s, with the proliferation of liberal thoughts in the West, the money worship in the Internet era, the wave of consumption, and American heroism, our cultural values were in chaos, and finally settled on a certain person as the development direction of advanced culture, and firmly explored the Chinese tradition Excellent culture, insist on excellent culture with national characteristics and rooted in the local area.
For example, the selflessness and sacrifice of historical figures, the backbone of the nation such as Hai Rui, Yu Qian, Yue Fei, Qu Yuan... The Red Boat spirit, the Foolish Old Man's spirit of moving the mountains, Qu Yuan's patriotism spirit, the revolutionary spirit, and the Long March spirit are all rooted in the local area and deeply rooted in the country. The national culture and national spirit of our blood.
I won’t talk about democracy, it’s a bit sensitive.
In short, in terms of cultural innovation, we neither rest on our laurels nor copy everything. We must find a path that is in line with our national conditions and our own national blood and genes.
You can also write about the changes in the path of the rule of law in our country. From modern times, our country's lawyers followed the West, Shen Jiaben, Wu Tingfang... and then copied the law from Germany and Japan, and then talked about legal inheritance, legal transplantation, and finally the establishment of a Chinese-domestic The unique rule of law system adopts a people-centered rule of law that combines the rule of virtue with the rule of law.
In fact, legal changes also reflect cultural changes.
It is that after we fell behind the West in modern times, we are really learning from others in an all-round way.
From copying, to borrowing, to originality.
The above is called a longitudinal discussion.
But there must be a key argument that is rooted in the local area, original to the nation, consistent with itself, and based on national conditions...
It can also be compared horizontally, which is counter-evidence.
Some countries in the world today copy Western development models, values, and lifestyles... resulting in ideological confusion, a lack of coordination in institutional governance mechanisms, and a lack of patriotism.
Over-reliance on the West in the field of science and technology, catering to Western standards in culture, art and aesthetics, adhering to Western values in social systems, gradually losing national independence, becoming a yes-man... and so on.
In short, we must eventually find our own original path.
Of course, writing these requires you to accumulate a relatively extensive knowledge base.
But I think 800 words is enough for an essay.
The above is almost a thousand words...
