1.閱讀小說人物的際遇，思辨其人其事，進而培養出同理心，學會體察人情世故。亦即擁有人文的精神。
2.分析小說的組成架構、組成元素、組織方式，不再只是單純的「看故事」，而是可以從看熱鬧的情態，進展到看門道的行列。
3.探索自我與了解社會，實踐自律與修養品行。
4.認知古典作品的基本模式，理解今日小說的發展軌跡。溫古以知新。
5.疏通想像力，於生活中體察出不同的感受，讓詩意進入視野。

1. Read the encounters of the characters in the novel, think about them, and then develop empathy and learn to understand the world. That is to say, have a humanistic spirit.
2. Analyze the structure, elements, and organization of the novel. It is no longer just about "reading the story", but it can progress from watching the excitement to watching the door.
3. Explore yourself and understand society, practice self-discipline and cultivate your character.
4. Understand the basic patterns of classical works and understand the development trajectory of today’s novels. Review the past to learn the new.
5. Unblock your imagination, experience different feelings in life, and let poetry enter your field of vision.
