Abstract: The literary supplement of the Senior Citizens' Newspaper uses nostalgia as a method, identification as a purpose, and media as a field. Through individual memories, archival materials, literary and historical knowledge, etc., it realizes the organic linkage of the "memory trio" of individual memories-archival activation-literary and historical interpretation, and constructs an emotional memory reproduction mechanism serving the elderly group, transforming the fragmented life experience of the elderly into a cultural heritage that can be passed down from generation to generation, and ultimately achieving the dual redemption of group spiritual comfort and historical presence. Among them, the "cohesive structure" is the core driving force. It connects yesterday with today through the social and temporal levels, connects the person who recalls and the people around him, forms common experiences and expectations, and fixes some experiences and memories that should be engraved in the heart in a certain form and keeps them realistic, forming a "symbolic meaning system", realizing the socialization and culturalization of personal memory, and then promoting the reproduction and development of human society.
