Everyone has the heart to love beauty.Aesthetic education is a vivid embodiment of the organic combination of beauty and education,which plays a unique role in cultivating emotion,warming the soul and perfecting character.The educational goal of all-round development in China clearly covers the element of “aesthetic education”.In recent years,the National Education Conference has repeatedly expressed its concern for aesthetic education.Relevant national aesthetic education documents have established a discipline integration concept of aesthetic education while attaching importance to aesthetic education in schools.Among them,the aesthetic education value shown by the Chinese subject is particularly significant.The Chinese Curriculum Standard for Compulsory Education(2011 Edition)clearly states the role of Chinese as a discipline to “enhance students' aesthetic taste”.Chinese textbooks are the main materials for Chinese teaching content,and a lot of content with aesthetic education value is contained in it.Especially Chinese textbooks are mainly based on the text selection,and the aesthetic education value of selected texts are even more self-evident.As the latest and most widely used primary school Chinese textbook compiled by the Ministry of Education,it is of more practical significance to study the selected texts.In this study,the selected texts of primary school Chinese textbooks compiled by the Ministry of Education are taken as the research object,and the contents with aesthetic education value are excavated and sorted out based on the analysis framework by using the methods of literature research,content analysis and text analysis.The analytical framework of the study is mainly based on the aesthetic knowledge system constructed by Professor Zhao Lingli and the reality of the selected texts of primary school Chinese textbooks compiled by the Ministry of Education.The selected texts are divided into four categories: natural beauty,social beauty,artistic beauty and scientific beauty.On this basis,specific categories are further divided to strive for the completeness and rationality of the framework content.According to the analytical framework,this study explores the quantity,presentation mode and aesthetic value of aesthetic education content of the selected texts,and based on this,analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of the selected texts in primary school Chinese textbooks compiled by the Ministry of Education,and puts forward suggestions for improvement.Finally,in order to realize the aesthetic education value of the selected contents,this study puts forward the aesthetic education implementation strategies of Chinese reading teaching according to Professor Zhao Lingli's aesthetic teaching theory and Teacher Li Jilin's situational education theory,hoping to help the Chinese subject achieve the goal of aesthetic education from the perspective of content and practice.The research shows that the selected contents of primary school Chinese textbooks compiled by the Ministry of Education from the perspective of aesthetic education have three advantages: reasonable quantity of aesthetic education contents in four fields,appropriate difficulty of aesthetic education contents in each stage,attaching importance to moral education and inheriting tradition.However,there are also three shortcomings,such as the lack of types or quantity of aesthetic education contents,deviations of content and thought of individual selected texts,and insufficient contemporary content of the selected texts.To this end,the study puts forward targeted suggestions for improvement: planning the type and quantity of aesthetic education content of selected texts,ensuring the correctness of the content and thought of the selected texts,and coordinating the classic and contemporary content of the selected texts.On this basis,in order to give full play to the influence of the selected content on students' aesthetic education,the research also puts forward practical strategies of using the selected content to implement Chinese aesthetic education from three aspects: appreciation of beauty,expression of beauty,and creation of beauty.
