《甲申三百年祭》是郭沫若同志为纪念明末李自成领导的农民起义推翻明王朝三百周年而写的一篇史论文章。文章引用史料分析了明末农民起义最终失败的根源,论证确凿,令人信服。只要具备一定历史知识,对这篇文章不难理解。但目前中学生历史知识较为欠缺,认识能力有限,根据这种状况,教学中我觉得适当补充一些历史知识,联系课文进行恰当的评论,能够加深学生对课文的理解,使之获得比较完整的认识。一本文作为一篇史评,无需完整地叙述历史。但要理解课文,非得熟悉一下明末农民起义兴衰的历史过程不可。如条件许可,可以布置学生课外阅读 The “Jin Shen Three Hundred Years Festival” is a historical article written by Comrade Guo Moruo to commemorate the three hundredth anniversary of the Ming Dynasty’s peasant uprising led by Li Zicheng at the end of the Ming Dynasty.

As long as you have some historical knowledge, it is not difficult to understand this article. However, the current knowledge of middle school students is relatively lacking, and the ability to understand is limited. According to this situation, I think that teaching should be properly supplemented with historical knowledge.

However, in order to understand the text, one must be familiar with the historical process of the rise and fall of the peasant uprising in the late Ming Dynasty. If conditions permit, students can be arranged to read outside class
