Every year in Guangdong, the national college entrance examination is released. As soon as the new "No.1 scholar" is exposed, "No.1 scholar ceremony" becomes a topic. On July 26th, the Confucius Temple in Deqing, Guangdong Province, known as the pearl of Lingnan ancient architecture, staged the seventh "Champion Ceremony". The "No.1 scholar" took a photo on a burly horse to show off his prestige. The "scholar ceremony" has been questioned by the outside world, and there are different opinions. According to the temple, the content is the most important and the form can be arbitrary. The "championship ceremony" has its positive significance, otherwise it will be difficult to be welcomed by students and tourists. (July 27, China News Network)
It's a way of ringing bells and gongs, a way of "shouting", and a way of "number one scholar" walking through Song Street to the entrance of Confucius Temple and crossing Qingyun Bridge ... No matter how lively and ingenious this "number one scholar ceremony" is, you will feel that it is so far away, so strange and so inappropriate. To say that the "Champion Ceremony" has any positive significance, it is nothing more than setting up a stage through historical sites to let tourists sing operas. Just like the programs staged in tourist attractions around the world, it is just a gimmick to entertain tourists and enliven the atmosphere through the so-called championship ceremony.
To tell the truth, whether it is respecting Confucius or reading classics, no matter how rampant it used to be, it is still half dead and silent. From the May 4th New Culture Movement, when Kongjiadian was smashed, to the inexplicable criticism of forests and caves, people have already eliminated the feudal dross of China culture. Now anyone who wants to show respect for his predecessors by kowtowing can only be laughed at. Of course, if, as a cultural activity, people play games such as kowtowing to the emperor in the program and everyone laughs, that's fine, but if it gets serious, it's inevitable that people will be suspected.
I believe that all the so-called top candidates in the college entrance examination are brilliant in their studies, but I dare say that they may not have known before that there is a Confucius Temple in Deqing, which is the oldest, largest, most distinctive in architecture and the richest in Confucianism in southern China. As for whether they usually think about Confucius or even know much about Confucius, these are all questions. And the only possibility that they can attend the award ceremony for the champion is the award of the Confucius Temple Scholarship Foundation in Deqing to the champion of the college entrance examination. The purpose of the organizer is to use the so-called champion as a prop, so that the "champion of Guangdong college entrance examination" can exchange learning experiences face to face with the majority of students, so as to attract as many tourists as possible to participate in it and obtain the effect of revitalizing tourism.
Think about it. If parents and children can take advantage of a trip, they can not only relax, but also witness the elegance of many college entrance examination champions. More importantly, they will learn learning methods from it. Why not? After all, parents nowadays spare no effort to educate their children. At the moment when thousands of troops are crossing the wooden bridge, it is the common wish of parents and children to let their children get good grades, go to a good school and have a good job in the future. -that's very creative. It can be said that the organizers of the champion of the college entrance examination and the champion ceremony have their own needs in this activity, and the rest is whether the parents and children among the tourists are willing to respond positively and cooperate.
In the past, some enterprises rewarded the champion of the college entrance examination for the reward of advertising, while the Confucius Temple in Deqing used the "champion ceremony" to earn eyeballs in order to revitalize the tourism industry. Different means, but one purpose. However, I feel that its appeal is really limited. After all, trying to inspire students' fighting spirit with a strange ceremony always feels decadent. Mr. Lu Xun once called it "infatuation with corpses", but as far as entertainment is concerned, let him go.
Talk about manners
Politeness is a virtue, and we should be polite to everyone. Politeness is very important in any occasion. A polite person will not only leave a good impression, but also get a lot of convenience.
I once heard a story that a child's wooden car broke down and a screw was dropped. He saw a man on the side of the road repairing the car, so he went over and said, "Hey, lend me a pair of pliers." The man gave him a look, ignored him and continued to repair the car. The child told his brother about it, and his brother taught him to be polite. So he went to the mechanic and said, "Uncle, can you lend me a pair of pliers?" The man looked up and asked, "What's the matter? The wooden car is broken, let me help you repair it. " Because of the boy's courtesy, he not only borrowed pliers, but also got the help of his uncle to repair the wooden car.
When Emperor Liu Zhuang was a prince, Dr. Huan Rong was his teacher. Later, he succeeded to the throne and became emperor. He once went to Taichang House in person, sat in the east of Huanrong, set up a few sticks, and listened to the teacher's instructions as he did in the past. He also called hundreds of North Korean officials and students taught by Huan Rong to the Taichang Hall to pay tribute to his disciples. When Huan Rong was ill, Ming Di sent someone to offer condolences, and even went to see the teacher himself. Every time I visit my teacher, Ming Emperor City gets off the bus as soon as he enters the street to show his respect. After entering the door, I often hold the teacher's skinny hand and cry silently for a long time. The emperor of the dynasty did this to Huan Rong, so "the assistant ministers, generals and doctors who asked for illness were afraid to come to the door by car again, and they all worshipped under the bed." After Huan Rong's death, Ming Di changed his clothes, attended the funeral in person, and made proper arrangements for his children.
If you meet someone you know on the road, you should say hello politely. Old people and children should make way on the bus. Don't wolf down and chew loudly when eating in a restaurant. When buying tickets in the theater, you should queue up in an orderly manner; When you have something that bothers others, be kind and modest, whether it's asking others, asking others to do things, or asking others; When others help you, you should say "thank you"; When you speak, don't put on airs, be natural and generous, and don't be coy. Don't interrupt when others are talking; No matter how high your position is, don't put on airs, people of any class should be one with others; Don't be rude, spit before you act, speak politely, at least don't swear. These are all polite expressions. Always review yourself, get rid of bad style and be polite to others, which will benefit you a lot.
