Preliminary Exploration Of Chinese Fictive Writing

Since the reform of the new curriculum in China,the discussion about the teaching of Chinese writing has not been stopped. Although all of the various ideas and views about the teaching of writing are on the value and significance of their own, however, we must face the problems in current teaching of Chinese writing. There are some situations in the current teaching of Chinese writing .Such as teachers put great emphasis on the authenticity of writing, but ignore the fiction. Teachers pay more attention to the rhetorical of language and ignore the guidance of writing practices. Students have the utilitarian nature of the writing. Therefore, the Chinese writing teaching and research should re-examine the "fiction", which has been ignored for too long. Based on the above reasons, we should actively explore the role of the "fiction" in the teaching of writing. And we should also study how the fiction to play an effect for improving the students writing skills. Of course, fictive writing is not the full content of writing teaching. But it does should be treated as an important part of which can not be ignored. It is incomplete if our teaching of writing lack of the fictive writing.In a long term, the teaching of fictive writing in our country is always in a awkward position of being marginalized. Today, our teaching of Chinese writing is still not confident to face the "fiction". On the one hand, we can find a cause from the traditional way of Chinese teaching. On the other hand, it can be traced back to some deeper reasons behind our language education. I tried to explore and explain from such aspects like the Chinese literary traditions, the Chinese cultural traditions, as well as the development situation of human imagination in social environment of contemporary. It can be inspired by fictive concepts in the Chinese Literature and Western Literature. "Fiction" can lead students into an imagined world. Students can describe the real world through a fictive way. Fiction can stimulate students to actively explore the possibility of the existence. With fiction, students can rediscover their innocent which have been suppressed for a long time.Fictive writing requests us to break the traditional "fiction / reality" dualism concept. It can enable students to achieve the real freedom of writing and enjoy the happiness of writing. In fact, writing fiction has a certain nature of literary writing. But it is different from the author's writing style. In my opinion, it can be able to broaden the scope of the genre selection with the promotion of fictive writing. It also can increase the writing resources, reverse the utilitarian tendency in writing, stimulate students'interest in writing and cultivate students'interest in the literature. It can be said that Fictive writing could widen the road of writing teaching. At the same time, in response to develop physical and mental of students, fiction writing can broaden the boundaries of students'thinking. It can stimulate the potential imagination of students. And it's a good conservation of students'creative ability. Fictive writing also provides a variety of ways to students for their expressing emotion. In addition, the fictive writing plays a positive role for cultivating the students'imagination and maintaining the vitality of the Han ethnic languages and national innovation.In Western countries, Mother-tongue teaching has maintained a tradition of literary writing. Teachers often encourage students to try different styles of literary writing, such as poetry, novels, essays, scripts and so on. Through the practices of fictive writing, students can improve their ability to description, narrative, logic, thinking, imagination, association and other capacities. These give us a lot of inspiration in the teaching of Chinese writing. It makes us re-examine the value and meaning of the "fiction". We can not find the word "fiction" in Chinese curriculum standards. However, some relevant statements can reflect that the fictive writing is reasonable.We should clearly distinguish the three pairs of concepts between "fiction" and "Living", "fictitious" and "false", "fictive" and "imagine". It is useful for us to understanding of the concept of fictive writing. Fictive writing has its own fictional nature, transcendence, games and artistic characteristics of authenticity. Chinese teachers in the teaching process should be concerned about the process of writing and every step of guidance. Teachers should design a variety of ways for students to practice up. Cultivating the students'imagination can improve the level of writing fiction. At the evaluation stage, in addition to abandon the past "real / fictional" dualistic thinking, language teachers should follow a basic principle, which is that "Fiction" not only has to be sensible, but also reasonable. "Fictitious", it is necessary to comply with the objective law, but also in line with the ethics of human emotion. Teachers should remind students to eliminate unrealistic, contrary to the objective law of fantasy in their articles.
