2. Vernacular translation:
There is a citizen named Fang Zhongyong in Jinxi County whose family has been farming for generations. When Zhong Yong was five years old, he didn't know writing tools. Suddenly one day, Zhong Yong cried for these things. His father was surprised by this and borrowed those things from his neighbors. Zhong Yong immediately wrote four sentences and wrote his own name. This poem aims to support parents and unite people of the same clan for the whole town to watch. From then on, when he was assigned to write a poem, Fang Zhongyong could finish it at once. The literary talent and authenticity of this poem are worthy of appreciation. People in the same county were very surprised by this, and gradually regarded his father as a guest, and some people paid for Zhong Yong's poems. Fang Zhongyong's father thought it was profitable, so he led Zhong Yong to visit people in the same county every day and wouldn't let him study.
I've heard a long time ago. In the era of Ming Dow, I followed my late father back to my hometown and met Fang Zhongyong at my uncle's house. He is twelve or thirteen years old. I asked him to write poems. His poems are not as famous as before. Seven years later, I came back from Yangzhou and went to my uncle's house again. When I asked Fang Zhongyong, I replied, "His talent has disappeared. He is no different from ordinary people."
Wang Anshi said: Fang Zhongyong's intelligence is innate. His talent is much stronger than that of ordinary talented people; But in the end, because the education he received the day after tomorrow did not meet the requirements, he became an ordinary person. His talent is so good that he has become an ordinary person without normal acquired education; Then, can those who are not born smart now, but ordinary people, who have not received the education of the day after tomorrow, become ordinary people?
Extended data:
1, creative background:
In the third year of Tiansheng (1025), Fang Zhongyong began to write poems, which shocked the whole village. In the second year of Ming Dow (1033), Wang Anshi, the same age as Fang Zhongyong, followed his father back to Shanxi to visit relatives and met Fang Zhongyong at his uncle's house. He asked Fang Zhongyong to write some poems, but he was disappointed because the "child prodigy writer" was not as clever as the legend. In the first year of Kangding (1040), Wang Anshi visited relatives in Jinxi again. At this time, Fang Zhongyong became a farmer again. In three years (1043), Wang Anshi returned to Linchuan from Yangzhou, and thought of what had happened, and wrote the article "On".
2. Literature appreciation:
Taking Fang Zhongyong as an example, this paper shows that people are influenced by nature, but they have to be influenced by others. Otherwise, they will start all over again, further showing that people who are not influenced by nature are all people, and it is difficult to become "all people" one after another. It also emphasizes the importance of learning the day after tomorrow and shows Wang Anshi's simple materialism in his early days.
