...After Reading 700 Words Chapter 1 When I first started reading "Insects", I glanced through it briefly and thought it was too boring. I needed to understand the habits and lives of various insects.
But after reading a few chapters, I found that the world of insects is actually a lot of fun.
The insects seemed to come alive. Instead of dull book words, there were vivid pictures in front of me.
All this is due to the author Fabre's language.
Although it is a popular science text, Fabre's language is simple and easy to understand, and he tells scientific knowledge in a simple and vivid way.
It has a rigorous structure and logic, but without losing the humor of the language. It "takes care of the nature of insects with human nature". It is both rational and emotional, and is full of artistic interest.
So I took the time to get to know Fabre again.
He is a famous French entomologist, litterateur, and popular science writer.
He was born in a farming family and lived in poverty since he was a child. However, he spent twenty years on self-study and obtained a doctorate.
He spent his whole life in the observation and research of insects. "Insect Diary" is a tome he wrote about insects through observation and research in his barren stone garden.
This book records knowledge about insects, and also reflects his perception and attitude towards life, life, and nature. Every line reveals his love for life and himself. It is a masterpiece with both academic and literary value.
There are many impressive insects in the book.
The ant and the cicada were not what they imagined. The ant, a scoundrel, seized the cicada's well and damaged it.
The mantis is good at using psychological tactics. It suddenly assumes a frightening posture. The poor prey stays put and is unable to fight back until it is caught.
Female golden beetles go on a killing spree after mating, much like mantises and Languedoc scorpions.
The firefly anesthetizes the snail very quickly, liquefies it, and then sucks it slowly.
The scarab beetles make pear-shaped dung balls for their children. They are gently patted, not rolled, and naturally formed.
Dung beetles have made great contributions to environmental cleanliness, but we are a bit disdainful of these little warriors and treat them with vulgar words.
The tunnel guard blocked the hole with his bare head and worked diligently and conscientiously for the family.
There are also many insects, all of which seem to play real human roles.
In the future, I will also pay attention to this small world, care for insects with a human eye, and correctly understand and think about life and nature.
...After reading 700 words Part 2 "The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People" is a book compiled by Dr. Stephen Covey that guides people to develop their own habits.
Its sales have always been high in the rankings of major websites.
This book mainly compiles 7 habits that can improve your abilities in all aspects.
What I like the most and feel the most deeply is knowing oneself and understanding another (the principle of empathic communication).
Knowing oneself, understanding another, and thinking from others' perspective will not only help enhance one's interpersonal communication skills, but will also be of great help in future interactions and interactions with others.
In our daily life, I think we need to improve our abilities in this area. Generally speaking, I think there are four main things to pay attention to.
1. The principle of equality.
It is the basis for establishing relationships between people.
Interactions are based on equality. Only by respecting others can we win the respect of others.
When interacting with others, both parties should be placed on an equal footing, that is, they should not feel inferior to others, nor should they feel superior to others.
In interactions, you must have confidence in yourself and be sincere to others. Only equality and mutually beneficial interactions can last.
2. The principle of integrity.
Integrity includes two aspects: honesty and trustworthiness.
Integrity is the basic criterion for dealing with personal relationships with others.
Integrity requires that in interactions, each other should have sincere motives and attitudes, understand, accept and trust each other, value credit, and keep faith.
3. The principle of tolerance.
Tolerance, like honesty, diligence, optimism and other value indicators, is a measure of a person's temperament and moral standards.
Tolerance is manifested in not fussing over non-principled issues, being able to retaliate with kindness, being broad-minded, and being generous and tolerant.
Tolerance to others is a kind of respect, acceptance, and love for the other person. Sometimes tolerance is a kind of strength.
Tolerance itself is also a kind of communication and a virtue.
4. The principle of mutual assistance.
Mutual aid is manifested in the mutual care, mutual help, and mutual support between the two parties, which not only meets the respective needs of both parties, but also promotes mutual contact.
It can be said that in the process of communication, the following principles are implemented, consider others, and think about problems from the perspective of others, which will definitely make both parties feel good.
Seven Habits is not only a book that adults should read, but also a work that teenagers need to think about carefully.
Today's teenagers always have various shortcomings. This is not only the shortcomings of the education system, but also the shortcomings of the teenagers themselves. Therefore, improving ourselves and improving ourselves is what we need to do.
