It is said that a teacher once made a statistics while grading college entrance examination essays: out of every hundred papers, there were as many as thirty or more essays about parents being deceased! This made us wonder: why do so many children from poor families suddenly appear at this time? Since 2003, the National College Entrance Examination "Examination Syllabus" has moved the requirement of "genuine feelings" ahead of "healthy thinking" regarding composition, emphasizing the need to speak the truth and express genuine emotions. In the new "Curriculum Standards," it is also strongly emphasized to "guide students to express genuine feelings, avoid false or cliché language, and avoid fabricating emotions for the sake of writing." As the famous writer Liu Qing once said: "Observe society with your own eyes, think about life with your own mind, and express your own views and love with your own voice. To speak candidly and unreservedly what you truly want to say, to reveal your genuine opinions that are not constrained by convention and dare to think independently, fully showcasing your straightforward individuality, is truly valuable."
