Love the motherland:
1\ Mao Yisheng built a bridge and blew it up.
On September 26th, 1937, the railway bridge of Qiantang River Bridge, the first modern bridge designed and manufactured by China people in China, was opened to traffic. Mao Yisheng felt extremely proud when he saw the train passing by the bridge, and the day and night of building the bridge flashed in front of him.
Mao Yisheng/KLOC-0 resigned as a professor at Beiyang University in August, 1933, and went south to Hangzhou to start building and designing the Qiantang River Bridge. 1April, 935, construction started formally. In less than two years, the bridge was built, and its difficulty can be imagined. He used water to control sand and used a high-pressure water gun to break down the hard sediment at the bottom of the river, which solved the difficulty of piling, from only one pile a day to 30 piles a day. He used caisson method to overcome the difficulty of rapid water flow in underwater construction; Using the "floating method", the giant steel beam was transported to the pier in the middle of the river by using the fluctuation of the river tide, and more than 80 problems were solved before and after. At the most tense stage of the project, War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression broke out and the Japanese bombed many times. The project has never stopped, but is accelerating. The early opening of the railway bridge has contributed to supporting the defense of Shanghai.
165438+ 10/7, the highway bridge was officially opened to traffic again, and the first double-deck railway highway bridge designed and built by China was born, which set off a milestone in the history of railway bridges. At that time, tens of thousands of people fled by boat every day. As soon as the highway bridge was opened, it was crowded with people from morning till night. However, just the day before the opening ceremony, Mao Yisheng received a secret order from the highest authorities to blow up the Qiantang River Bridge. The bridge built by myself will be blown up, and the painstaking efforts of tens of thousands of people will be destroyed. He was very sad. The railway bridge was only open to traffic for three months. He said with tears in his eyes, "This is really worse than killing his own son!"
Mao Yisheng, who puts national interests first, knows that building a bridge is patriotic and bombing a bridge is patriotic; The bridge was built for pride of chinese, and the bridge was bombed to stop the Japanese invaders. That night, under the guidance of Mao Yisheng, buried explosives busy all night, all in place. That is, on the day when the highway bridge passed, explosives had been buried under the bridge, but it was strictly kept secret to avoid panic among people crossing the bridge. On the afternoon of February 23, 65438, the Japanese army approached Fuyang, and the blasting personnel were ordered to connect more than 0/00 wires. However, at this time, there are still a large number of refugees on the bridge, and those who marry the bridge can't bear it. It was not until the evening that the smoke and dust raised by the Japanese cavalry went away, and the bridge was closed, and it was not allowed to pass and was blasted. With a loud bang, the Qiantang River Bridge, which was built only 89 days ago, rose from the ground, and the lying river dragon was cut off in six places, and the passage was paralyzed.

Politeness and honesty:
1\ Guo Moruo and Banana Flower
Murrow was very filial when he was a child. Once, my mother got carsick. Guo Moruo didn't know where he heard that plantain flower could cure this disease, so he wanted to get one. But this kind of flower is very expensive and rare in the market, so he and his brother ran to a garden to look for it. It happened that the plantain in the garden had just opened a big yellow flower, and Guo Moruo and his brother secretly picked it and gave it to their mother. Although my mother knew that Guo Moruo was very filial to her afterwards, her son's behavior made her very sad, so she educated him and told him to be honest in the future. Guo Moruo kept this story in his mind until he became a great scholar in China, and he never forgot it.
2\ Create a letter tree \
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Qin Shangyang presided over the political reform with the support of Qin Xiaogong. At that time, at a time of frequent wars and panic, in order to establish prestige and promote reform, Shang Yang ordered a 30-foot-long wood to be erected outside the south gate of the capital, and made a promise in public: whoever can move this wood to the north gate will be rewarded with twelve taels of silver. None of the onlookers believe that such an easy thing can get such a high reward, so no one is willing to try. So Shang Yang raised the reward to 50 gold. Under the four rewards, there must be brave people. Finally someone stepped forward and carried the wood to the north gate. Shang Yang immediately rewarded him with fifty gold. Shang Yang's move established prestige in the hearts of the people, and Shang Yang's next reform was quickly popularized in Qin State. The new law made the State of Qin stronger and eventually unified China.
Diligence and friendship:
1 \ 1976 after the death of the prime minister, the person in charge of sorting out the accounts of Deng's salary income and expenditure recalled that his income was only the interest of a single salary and salary balance deposit, and there was no income. Expenditure items mainly focus on meals, party dues, rent, newspaper subscriptions, daily expenses, subsidies to relatives and staff, donations, etc.
According to statistics, the salary of the Prime Minister is 400.80 yuan, and that of Sister Deng is 347.50 yuan. From 1958 to 1976, the total is 16 1442.00 yuan. 36,645.51yuan is used to subsidize relatives, and 102 18.67 yuan is used to subsidize staff and friends, accounting for 1/4 of their total income. The leading idea is that you can reduce the burden on the country by subsidizing your own salary. As for the savings of the Prime Minister, the Prime Minister has also made a rule: if the savings are enough for 5,000 yuan, it will be useless to pay party dues. In this way, a total of 14000 yuan was paid. 1After the death of Prime Minister 1976 1 in October, they only saved 5 100 yuan. So both old people are frugal.
Study hard:
1\ Zhou Enlai is studious.
Nankai school is a well-known advanced school in China, and it is very strict with students. The academic burden in the school is moderate, and there are often exams. If you don't do well in the exam, you will be eliminated or repeat, and the tuition is very expensive.
Life is so hard and difficult, but he has been studying hard for the rise of China. He has been staying in school since he entered school, getting up and running every morning when the morning bell rings, and keeping the habit of exercising when he was in elementary school in Shenyang.
At first, his English foundation was poor. In order to overcome this difficulty, he spends all his spare time learning English every day. By the second year, his English was quite good. Later, I can read many original English books.
His Chinese performance is particularly good, and the school writes a composition every two weeks. Zhou Enlai's literary thinking is quick, and he writes a composition in one go. 19 16 He won the first place in the composition competition at school.
He is also good at math. He is one of the 48 players with the fastest written test. Get full marks in algebra. Mental arithmetic is faster than others' pen arithmetic.
Besides studying in class, he also read many books and newspapers after class, especially the civil rights newspaper and the people's livelihood newspaper run by Dr. Sun Yat-sen's revolutionary school, as well as the works of progressive thinkers at home and abroad at that time. Therefore, he is knowledgeable, broad-minded and active. On one occasion, he saw a printed Historical Records in the bookstore, so he bought it without paying the board fee and read it eagerly.
At this time, he had a clear understanding of the purpose of learning. In an essay entitled "The plan of life lies in diligence", he wrote: "People study all their lives, and youth is the biggest period. The foundation is based on this day and will develop in the future." He believes that studying hard now is to "serve the society, the country and the world" in the future. He is trying to prepare!
All the teachers and students admire him because of his hard work and excellent academic performance. The headmaster called him the best student in Nankai, and his classmates all said that he had achieved excellent results in all kinds of hardships. The following year, recommended by the teacher, the school made an exception and exempted his tuition and fees. Zhou Enlai became the only free student in the school.
In June, 2007, Zhou Enlai graduated first in his class. During his four years in Nankai school, he cultivated himself into an all-round young man who pursues progress and is excellent in character and learning.
2\ Qi Baishi hangs a corner to read.
When I was a child, I knew the diligent story of the ancients' "negative salary" and "hanging horns". "Guajiao" refers to the stone rice in the Tang Dynasty. He used to be a residential guard in Yang Di, but later he gave up his studies and rode an ox to find a teacher in other places. He hung his horn with Hanshu, and all his trips and stops were exhibited. After reading the profile of Qi Baishi, we know that this outstanding artist also studied in a corner when he was young, which laid the foundation of ancient Chinese prose.
The ancient prose works left by the old man Baishi are not as many as the poems he wrote, but from his self-report, we can see his ancient prose skill and unique style. He was born in a poor peasant family. 1 1 years ago, he herded cattle and chopped wood. He took time off to study during his work and practiced writing on the ground and on the wall with branches. One day, he was so absorbed in reading on the mountain that he forgot to cut wood and didn't pick up much dung. After dinner, his grandmother sighed and said, "Hey, you voted for the wrong person." For this childhood experience, he wrote this in "Introduction":
The queen mother (grandmother) said, "Since you can chop wood and cook, let's write. As the saying goes,' it's windy for three days and rainy for five days, so read the article and cook in one pot?' There was no rice in the Ming Dynasty. What about my grandson? I'm sorry you were born in the wrong family. "So" The Analects of Confucius "was hung on the loudspeaker, and the daily work has become commonplace.
There are only a few crosses in the above quotation, which vividly describes grandma's oral English at that time, expresses her sadness and regret, and also describes the real situation that Qi Baishi wasted his time when he went out to cut wood every day. Such concise classical Chinese has its own unique style.
Public moral behavior:
Physical and mental health:
1\ Mao Zedong quit smoking.
Mao Zedong is a heavy smoker and a heavy smoker. After Stalin's death, Marshal voroshilov, Chairman of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the Soviet Union, told Mao Zedong during his visit to China: "Soviet medical experts believe that if Stalin had given up smoking according to the doctor's advice, he might not have died so early." Maybe his advice worked, and Mao Zedong gave up smoking. However, ten months later, he started smoking again. On June 7th, 1958, Foreign Minister Chen Yi led Huang Zhen and several other returning ambassadors to Zhongnanhai Swimming Pool. Mao Zedong greeted the ambassadors to their seats and handed Chen Yi a cigarette. Chen Yi waved: "I quit." Mao Zedong smiled, put the cigarette on his mouth and said, "You still made up your mind. I can't quit."
However, in his life, Mao Zedong had successfully controlled his drug addiction. That was at 1945 when Chongqing was negotiating with Chiang Kai-shek, and I never smoked a cigarette. This makes many people admire. Chiang Kai-shek told Chen Bulei: "Mao Zedong is not to be underestimated. He is a heavy smoker. It is said that he smokes one (50 packs) every day. But after he knew that I didn't smoke, he would never smoke another cigarette during the conversation with me. His determination and spirit should not be underestimated! "
In his later years, Mao Zedong was very ill. He had to follow the doctor's advice and made up his mind to quit smoking. I don't know how long, Mao Zedong finally bid farewell to the "world of smokers", which was a year before his death.
