The bizarre stories about lilliputian and adult countries in travel notes deeply attracted me. What impressed me the most, however, was Gulliver's voyage in North America in 17 10, and he visited an Yin Hui country on a desert island and got to know Yin Hui with the virtues of kindness, honesty and friendship. There are no such words as "lying" and "cheating" in the languages of Yin Hui countries, and people don't understand their meanings. They don't know what "doubt" and "distrust" are. Everything in their country is true and transparent.
Gulliver had a wonderful time in the countryside of Yin Hui. He was completely integrated into this society, which was in sharp contrast with Yehu, a metaphor for human beings, because they always looked at his honesty with suspicion, which made him feel lost and had a great dislike for human beings.
I envy the hero in the article for being lucky enough to go to the countryside of Yin Hui, which is the ideal place we pursue and yearn for. Here you don't have to worry about whether what others say is true or not, but in the real world, there are too many things we don't want to see: some people cheat others of their hard-earned money with sweet words, some people kidnap children for profiteering, and some even abandon their parents for money. No wonder our teachers and elders have taught us to be vigilant and not to be deceived since childhood. This is difficult to be unified with our advocacy of helping others and caring for others. When I met someone in trouble and wanted to lend a helping hand, I hesitated; I dare not accept that others help me out. All these make me feel painful, contradictory and at a loss. It not only prevented me from "loving" others, but also missed the "love" of others. Aren't you sad now?
I don't know about the lingering ambiguous relationship between Whigs and Tories in the United States18th century, and I certainly can't understand the beauty of Swift's "high heel party" and "low heel party" when arguing about which head to knock first and the height of high heels.
I was wrong about swift. I want to have a tolerant heart. Later, Swift gradually became understandable, giving me the feeling that he was just.
He satirized the characteristics of Britain at that time: "greed, partisanship, hypocrisy, treachery, cruelty, anger, madness, resentment, jealousy, lust, sinister and ambition." He satirically described the grotesque phenomenon of the inversion of man and beast: the horse became the carrier of reason, while man became a dirty, smelly, shit-covered, greedy and difficult animal. When he talks about human nature, he is willing to be enslaved by money, either extravagant or insatiable. After reading Gulliver's Travels, we can't help but look at ourselves to see if there are any shadows of these stubborn diseases in us.
There is a sentence that I think is classic: exaggerating the anger of the times and denouncing the disadvantages of the times through absurdity; Behind the hatred and pessimism, there should be a bitter feeling of worrying about the world.
I didn't expect those simple vernacular travel notes to have such profound connotations.
I look forward to the day when our society is like Yin Hui countries. There is no doubt in the eyes of children that education and reality are unified. I am willing to work hard for this, and I hope that everyone will start with me, and from now on, let this society be more sincere and less hypocritical.
