本文试图从现有的资料出发，探讨鲁迅经典作品在中学语文教育领域的教学历史与现状，并总结中学语文教育中鲁迅作品编选与教学的得与失。本文第一部分回顾了中学语文教材中鲁迅作品的编选史，并总结了各个时期鲁迅选文中呈现的特点，即：民国时期，注重培养学生的“语文”能力；十七年时期，突出思想政治教育任务；文革时期，出现了教学方式的模式化与鲁迅形象的符号化的倾向，并且愈演愈烈；在新时期，语文教育出现了两种倾向，即选文标准与篇目变化巨大的同时，也出现了传统教学经验复归的迹象。在第二部分，本文分别从鲁迅那些被选入中学语文教材的小说和散文作品入手，探讨它们编选和教学的情况。笔者认为，鲁迅的回忆性小说和散文，语言的平易浅白、内容富含生活情趣、贴近中学生的心理；批判现实的小说人物刻画生动，语言鲜活，主题意蕴深刻；时政性杂文语言犀利、逻辑清晰、切中时弊；神话历史小说具有天马行空般的想象力，符合中学生这个年龄阶段想象力丰富的特征，这都是其作品深受欢迎的重要原因。笔者将鲁迅与现代文学史中其他的经典作家对比，发现鲁迅之于中学语文教材的“特殊性”，就在于他创作文体类型的广泛、写作水平的精湛及其文学史地位的崇高，他的作品是滋养民族下一代的精神财富，是需要中学语文教育传承下去的。笔者认为，要想使鲁迅的作品更好地服务于基础教育，编者需要扩大选编视野，及时发掘那些尚未被发现而又符合学生心理发展需求的作品；在教材的编选体例上，也要注重给予学生和教师恰当的引导，完善课前提示、课后练习等内容，以帮助他们更好地完成教与学。此外，对于那些学有余力的学生，教师也应当适当向他们介绍一些其他的作品，便于他们更深入了解鲁迅。

This article intends to do a research about Lu Xun’s classic writing in secondary Chinese education based on available material. It tries to summarize the experience and lapse from existing things. In its first part, it reviews the history of Lu Xun’s works and summarizes their feature in different periods. That is, before the building of republic of China ,the textbooks focus on training students' ability of using language. During the period of seventeen years, we highlighted the ideological and political education task. When it comes to the Cultural Revolution, the way of the teaching became rigidified and the image of Lu Xun became symbolic, this tendency was intensified with time going by; In the new era, there have been two tendencies, the inclusion criteria together with the contents change a lot and at the same time, there have been the reversion of traditional teaching experience. In the second part, this paper starts its research from novels and prose works of Lu Xun that was elected into the high school textbook. The author believes that the memorial of Lu Xun's novels and essays are written in plain language, full of rich living fun which conforms Students' psychological. The characters in critical realistic novels are vivid with fresh language and profound implicated theme. Politics essays uses sharp language, clear logic and hits the mark accurately. His mythology historical novel has a fanciful imagination, which is in line with imaginative feature when students are in their high school. All those are important reasons of his works’ popular. I contrasts Lu Xun with other classical writers in the history of modern literature and find out Lu Xun's "specialty" in high school textbooks. That is, that the wide range of his creative style type, superb writing skills and the exalted status of his work in literary history. His work is the wealth to nourish the next generation, which should be passed along by secondary language education. I believe that in order to better serve the basic education, the editor need to enlarge their horizons and edit those work which yet to be discovered but meet the request of students timely. As to the arrangement, the editor should also pay attention to pre-lesson prompts and after-school exercises in order to give the appropriate guides to students and teachers. In addition, teachers should also be appropriate to introduce talented students to some other works of Lu Xun for a better understanding.
