茅盾在四十年代曾写过一篇文章——《中学生怎样学习文艺》,其中触及到了作文批改问题。茅公虽然不象叶圣陶先生那样从小学、中学一直教到大学,他只教过大学,没有中学语文教师的实践,但他交游面广,洞悉底蕴,深知中学语文教学个中三昧,烛见一些问题,谈得很有见地,体现了变旧革新的精神。文章是在解放前写的,世易时移,今天的情况和过去迥然不同,但我觉得茅公的话还是有生命力的,今天读来,仍深受教益。 Mao Dun once wrote an article in the 1940s - “How Middle School Students Learn Literature and Art”, which touched on the issue of composition correction. Although Mao Zong did not teach at a primary school or a secondary school like Mr. Ye Shengtao, he only taught at a university and did not practice Chinese language teachers in secondary schools. However, he had a wide range of contacts and insights. He knew that Chinese teaching in middle schools was a trifling matter. Some of the issues are very insightful and reflect the spirit of reforming the old. The article was written before the liberation. The world is changing. Today’s situation is very different from the past. However, I think that Mao Gong’s words still have vitality. Reading it today is still deeply instructive.
