中文感悟

1.关于英语学习：第一次在实践中体会到，每天扎实地掌握几个单词并造句模仿，和每天大量重复抄写背单词的区别。因为是实践少量却扎实背单词的第一天，不能妄下评论哪个方法对自己更有用。相信不同的方法对应不同的需求。少儿精的学习方法适合打基础，培养兴趣；重复大量背单词适合应试。相信两种方法都是可以提高单词量的。

2.关于小说的感悟：创意写作实在是一件有意思的事。如果从Creative writing技巧的角度，来欣赏这本小说，受益匪浅，也增加了阅读乐趣。对于人物的侧面和细节描写，未以后情节埋下的伏笔，越来越引人入胜的情节，都说明了这部小说大受赞赏的原因。打卡第一天，希望自己能抱着激情坚持读完。
