我国的语文教材大部分属于文选型教材，选文是教材的重要组成部分，它的好坏直接影响着教材的质量。时文是教材选文的重要组成部分，它变动不拘，随时代发展而动，是语文教材充满生机和活力的重要因素，但同时也是语文教材最有争议的部分。初中语文教材中应该选取什么样的时文，目前还没有定论。本文以建国以来不同时期时文选文为研究对象，旨在通过对时文选文特点变迁的研究，对初中语文教材时文选文提出设想。本文共由四部分组成，其中前三部分按照建国初期至文革时期、改革开放后、新世纪以来的时间顺序，从选文的作者、文体、内容三个方面探讨了时文的特点，在此基础上探讨形成其主要特点的原因，并对不同的特点加以反思。最后提出对当前初中语文教材时文选文的设想：时文要不以人而取文，不因人而舍文；要平衡实用文和文艺文的比例；要选取体现个性化的文章；要密切联系生活实际，反映多元文化。
