It profoundly exposed the darkness of old China, accused the ruling class of exploiting and oppressing the laborers, expressed the author's deep sympathy for the working people, and showed people the picture of the poor citizens at the bottom of Beijing living in the abyss of pain under the melee and darkness of warlords.

Inquiry thinking

Topic 1: Writing a Biography for Xiangzi

This book takes the struggle and destruction of the protagonist Xiangzi as a clue, which can be said to be a record of Xiangzi's life. Please write a short biography of Xiangzi according to the content of the work, and outline Xiangzi's experience completely. Pay attention to the further revision of the work after writing, and strive for accuracy.

Xiangzi was originally from the countryside, but later he came to the city to make a living. After coming to Beijing, he chose the common occupation of the people at the bottom of the city at that time-rickshaw pulling, and wanted to make a living on his own. He is honest, strong and patient, just like a camel. He has strong self-esteem, bears hardships and stands hard work, and makes a living on his own. But after three setbacks, Xiangzi had lost confidence in life. He became numb, down-and-out, cunning, taking advantage, eating, drinking, gambling and giving up on himself.

Theme 2: Exploring the Causes of Tragedy

After reading the whole book, Xiangzi's tragic fate will undoubtedly give you a strong shock. What power destroyed this once energetic man? What is the cause of the tragedy? Read some chapters carefully with thinking, find information, write down your own inquiry results, and then discuss with your classmates in depth.

There are three main aspects: first, the persecution of the social system and reactionary forces at that time, which was the objective cause of Xiangzi's tragedy; Secondly, Xiangzi's personal struggle is the subjective cause of his tragedy; The third is the abnormal combination with Tigress, which is another important reason for Xiangzi's tragic ending.

Topic 3: Talking about "Foreign Drivers"

In addition to Xiangzi, the book also wrote various kinds of rickshaws, leaving a precious historical record about rickshaw drivers in old Beijing. Please sort out the contents of the book and introduce foreign coachmen from the aspects of professional characteristics, personnel composition and living conditions.

Example:

Among the few works describing the life of the people at the bottom of the city in China modern literature, the image of foreign rickshaw pullers is very noticeable. Yang Chunfu was just an ordinary businessman in the society at that time. The foreign rickshaw pullers in the old city of Beiping, China, described in Camel Xiangzi, mostly came from the countryside, which made them unable to survive. They came to the city, eager to create a new life with their honest labor. They chose to pull the ocean as their career, which shows that although they left the land, their way of thinking is still that of farmers. They are used to individual labor, and they are also eager to own a car as reliable as land. Buy a car and be an independent worker. At first, they often struggled with life with perseverance and stubbornness. When the struggle ends in failure, they often go to spiritual degradation until they are unemployed like walking dead.

Topic 4: Analysis of "Beijing Flavor"

The work describes in detail the local customs, street life and unique language habits of Beijing people. You must have felt a strong "Beijing flavor" in your reading. Please choose an angle, extract some fragments and talk about how this feature is embodied.

The "Beijing flavor" in Camel Xiangzi is mainly reflected in three aspects:

One is to write Beijingers in Beijing dialect. For example, Xiangzi was described as: "Looking at the senior coachman, he was thinking about how to get into his waist so as to show his iron fan-like chest and straight back;" Look at your shoulders, how wide and dignified! Kill the waist, then put on white trousers with fat legs and tie them with chicken intestines to show those big feet! Here, "killing the waist", "chicken intestines bring children" and "big feet bring numbers" are typical usages of Beijing buzzwords. Hua Er Yun in Beijing dialect has a special flavor, which makes people feel that it is a local product of Beijing. It is appropriate for Lao She to write Coachman in these vernacular languages.

The second is to write colorful Beijing customs and human feelings. Just like in the novel:' What's wrong with you, sis! Here we are. Don't you have any passengers? Sister! Sit down! "By this time, she didn't touch a dime. Xiangzi could see clearly that his wife was shaking a little when she handed over a dime. After seeing the guests off, Xiangzi helped Zhang Ma clear the card table and so on. Xiangzi glanced at his wife. My wife's name is Zhang Ma. Most foreign drivers in this city come from the countryside. The village made it impossible for them to survive. They came to the city, eager to create a new life with their honest labor. They chose to pull the ocean as their career, which shows that although they left the land, their way of thinking is still that of farmers. They are used to individual labor, and they are also eager to own a car as reliable as land. Buy a car and be an independent worker. At first, they often struggled with life with perseverance and stubbornness. When the struggle ends in failure, they often go to spiritual degradation until they are unemployed like walking dead.

The third is to write out the inherent characteristics of Beijing people's spirit, temperament, personality, era, nationality, history and other cultural traditions. He nodded when the wind wrapped in sand passed him. The wind bent the trees on the roadside, tore the cloth of the shopkeeper, opened the newspaper form on the wall, covered the sun, sang, shouted, roared and echoed; Suddenly straightened, ... suddenly swept, ... but Xiangzi was watching; He just came out of the wind, and the wind didn't do anything to him! Victory belongs to Xiangzi! "In this description, there is a sandstorm unique to Beijing. Xiangzi has lived in Beijing for a long time and naturally knows how to deal with it. At the same time, it also hinted at the dark social environment at that time, but Xiangzi was brave and tenacious in the struggle against the harsh environment, which reflected the hard work and courage of the working people in China. Xiangzi is an image with both local personality characteristics and deep-seated national cultural psychological structure, which not only aroused people's sympathy for Xiangzi's unfortunate life, but also caused people to think more deeply: in order not to repeat Xiangzi's tragedy, we must deny that unreasonable old social system.
