My three "interactions" with Zhou Jianren and I

When I was a kid, I heard that Zhou Jianren only knew that it was Lu Xun's brother.

The initial "interaction" with Zhou Jianren was due to the teaching materials of the middle school. At a training conference of the Teaching Materials of the People's Education Press, for the first time, I heard that the first set of schools in New China's first set of schools was edited by Mr. Zhou Jianren. Later, he traced the source and wanted to find what the textbooks of Zhou Jianren looked like.

I found it and found a lot of stories. When Zhou Jianren was a child, he fell in his house. At the age of 17, he studied the biological disciplines of the plant, and wrote it as "Hueiji Mountain Collection" and "Zhentang Observation Tide", which opened for decades of popular science writing. The editor of the Indian Pavilion began to write "Fuxing Junior Middle School Textbook Biology" (published in 1933). It has reached the 253 version in July 1950. The textbooks are lively and lively. Knowledge played an important role; at the age of 59, he published the "Species of Species" translated by vernacular, which caused a sensation. It was known as a handwriting and carried a triumph. Biology textbooks- "Primary Middle School Amazing Textbook" (upper and lower volumes), published by Xinhua Bookstore, and scheduled "Primary Middle School Botanical Textbooks" (upper and lower volumes), published by People's Education Press ...

The textbooks he edited spread the scientific knowledge of biology, and created the style of writing textbooks for the New China Middle School. The language is simple and vivid, with scientific aesthetics, which is followed by the latecomers.

Not only that, he also published the article "On the Teaching Materials and Teaching Methods of Biological Sciences" in the "People's Education" magazine, which talked about his own biological education ideas: "When learning natural sciences, the knowledge learned by youth should not be a piece. The rigid knowledge of the block should be living knowledge ... If beginners are prone to digestion and absorption, they must be related to actual life, materials related to production and living "" now do not deny that natural science can educate knowledge, but at the same time, we must pay attention to it Ideological Educational Significance.

The first "interaction" made me feel a little ashamed. As a teacher in middle school, I just learned about Zhou Jianren.

The second "interaction" with Mr. Zhou Jianren was when I joined the China Democratic Promotion Association. Ten years ago, my understanding of the Democratic Party was ignorant. Later, I learned about the relevant information before I realized that the China Democratic Promotion Association consists of high and intermediate intellectuals engaged in education, culture and publishing. Established in Shanghai on December 30, 1945, the main founders were Ma Xulun, Wang Shaozhen, Zhou Jianren, Xu Guangping.

In 1932, Zhou Jianren participated in the preparations of the "China Civil Rights Guarantee Alliance" initiated by Song Qingling, Cai Yuanpei, and Yang Xingfo; after the outbreak of the Anti -Japanese War, he and the patriotic people in the cultural and educated industry in Shanghai secretly organized the "Marxist Reading Club"; In 1945, the 57 -year -old Zhou Jianren and the other founders of the Minjin founded the Democratic Progressive in Shanghai. Equal people published "Our Opinions on Disposal the Sunday in China", put forward six requirements for severe punishment of war criminals, compensation for cultural relics, property and land loss, and published articles such as "On the direction of historical margin" and "Talking about the Dictatorship of the Party". Calling for democracy and requiring to end the Kuomintang one -party dictatorship. Dictatorship and civil war policies; after the founding of the People's Republic of China, he was appointed as the Deputy Director of the General Administration of Publishing, Deputy Minister of Higher Education, Governor of Zhejiang Province, and Vice Chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress. Usually official duties were very busy, but However, he never forgets that he is a member of the China Democratic Promotion Association. When he pays the fare fees on time, when he is a governor, he will take ordinary passenger cars and be with the masses every time. Native

The second "interaction" with Zhou Jianren made people respect.

My third "interaction" with Zhou Jianren was a visit to Xibaipo in July 2021. At the former site of the Central United Front Work Department, through the immersive visit to study, we deeply understand the historical relationship between the Chinese revolution and the united front, and understand the history of the Chinese Democratic Promotion Association for more than 70 years. The glorious history of the country's prosperity, the rejuvenation of the nation, and the happiness of the people. In particular, it was learned that Zhou Jianren had played an extremely important role in the development history of the DPP's long -term rest, honor and disgrace of the Communist Party of China with the Communist Party of China.

In 1935, after Qu Qiubai was arrested, he wrote to Zhou Jianren from prison, and established a connection with Lu Xun and Yang Zhihua (Mrs. Qu Qiubai); on April 30, 1948, the Communist Party of China proposed a new political consultation meeting and establishing a democratic joint establishment of a democratic joint. The government's "May Day", Democratic Promise immediately expressed support and response. In the autumn of the same year, the Zhou Jianren's family quietly left Shanghai and arrived in Tianjin by boat to Tianjin and transferred to Xibaipo, Pingshan County, Hebei Province. In September 1949, Zhou Jianren, Ma Sulun, Xu Guangping 、王绍鏊、雷洁琼等出席了中国人民政治协商会议第一届全体会议，参与了制订《共同纲领》和组建中央人民政府的工作；改革开放初期，周建人给《北京晚报》《光明日报》《 The Wen Wei Po writes an article, lectures against feudal ideas, advocates science, encourages the ideological revolution, and believes that the emancipation of ideas is the top priority of China today, the theoretical basis of reform and opening up, and the key to boosting the national spirit. "Declaration of the Communist Party" ... Yan Yanqi, former vice chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress and former chairman of the Democratic Progressive Central Committee, said that the older generation of leaders represented by Comrade Zhou Jianren, whether during the democratic revolution, or socialist construction During the period, I consciously chose and always unswervingly adhered to the leadership of the Communist Party of China, insisted on intimately cooperating with the Communist Party of China, and formed the fine tradition of the Democratic Progressive "the public, participating in politics, and the party as a teacher".

Three "interactions" are the sublimation of professional ability, the baptism of the spiritual world, and the precise navigation of life.
