After spelling out rare (罕见的) Chinese characters like “影戤 (ying gai, meaning to make fake goods)” correctly, Chen Keyu, 13, from Jiangsu, became the winner of CCTV’s 2014 Dictation Assembly of Chinese Characters (汉字听写大会) on Oct 3.
How could someone at such a young age memorize (记忆) so many uncommon Chinese characters? Chen surely has his secret ways.
First you have to love reading. Chen has a shelf (书架) filled with books on Chinese culture, science and inspirational (励志的) stories. After entering middle school, he added philosophy (哲学) and history to his book list. Guess what his favorite is recently? It’s Zhuangzi!
Second, you need to have your own way of memorizing. Chen used to be a big dinosaur fan when he was younger. But the boy soon found it was hard to remember the difficult names of dinosaurs. He then thought out a way. He first checked a dictionary to get the correct meaning of the new character. Then he used the character to create an idiom (短语) or sentence to help him memorize. During the dictation competition, Chen created over 200 idioms with uncommon characters to help his teammates memorize them. Although he reads a lot, Chen is not a bookworm (书呆子). In his teachers’ eyes, he is a smart boy, who never did extra work but was always top on grades.
“I think the key is he likes thinking,” said Xu Yiwen, a teacher of Chen.
Chen’s dream is to become a philosopher because he thinks philosophy can explain everything. His ultimate (终极的) task, he said, is to answer the questions like “who am I” and “Why do I live”. What an ambition (雄心)!
