　　Peep into Short Stories

　　In our school every class has its own literature association. Recently a short story writing competition was held in Senior Grade Two. The result was encouraging. A number of articles stood out and they were picked out for an exhibition.

　　In their stories some students painted beautiful pictures for their futures and some expressed their longings. One of the students was bold enough to write a story commenting① on“calf-love”----themost sensitive② topic for high school students. He wrote:“A big part of people, especially those elders think‘calf-love’isn＇t any good. It should be given up. But I don＇t agree.Another student made a sharp criticism on the most unreasonable phenomenon he had ever come across. ”

　　In his story he stated: “I once met a pitiful old woman who was driven out of home by her daughter-in-law because she had no income to support herself. How cruel and hardhearted that daughter-in-law was! Suppose her own children were to treat her in this same way when she gets old, what would happen to her and how would she feel?”In all, the students expressed themselves freely and expressed feelings of love, hate and jealousy③ in their stories.

　　Still immature as we are, we＇ve learnt to observe④ with our own eyes and to solve problems by ourselves. Anyhow, we are on our way to maturity. Not only are we eager to understand society but we also want to be understood!

　　【词语解释】

　　①comment[＇k&ment]v．评论

　　②sensitive[＇sensitiv] a．敏感的

　　③jealousy[＇dNel+si] n．妒忌；嫉妒

　　④observe[+b＇z+:v]v．观察；注意到

　　【写法指要】

　　本文就作者所在学校短篇小说写作比赛展览的两个话题展开议论：一是中学生早恋问题，二是尊老爱幼问题。这是两个发人深思的问题。中学生能就这样的问题注意观察、发表自己的看法是难能可贵的。作者在文章最后说出了自己写这篇文章的主题：中学生无论在涉世方面还是在文学创作方面都是不成熟的，但是他们需要了解社会，也需要成人理解他们。
