Yin Zhong, the secretariat of Jingzhou, suffered a flood as soon as he took office, and the harvest was poor. He eats five bowls of dishes every meal and has no other delicious food. When rice falls on the table, he always picks it up and eats it. Although it is intended to lead by example, it is also out of pure nature. He often says to his children, "Don't think that just because I am the governor of a state, I will abandon my consistent will and ethics. Now, it is not easy for me to be in this position. Poverty is the bounden duty of a scholar. When you climb a tall branch, how can you abandon its roots? You must remember this truth. "
Don't forget the basic translation. Yin Zhong is the secretariat of Jingzhou. When he first took office, he was hit by floods and poor harvests. He eats five bowls and five dishes every meal, and there is no other delicious food. When rice falls on the table, he always picks it up and eats it. Although it is intended to lead by example, it is also out of pure nature. He often said to his children, "Don't think that I gave up my ambition when I became a state secretariat. Now I treat material life as simple as before, and I haven't changed. Poverty is the duty of a scholar, how can it become fundamental because of its high status! You must remember this truth. "
Don't forget the theme of creating the future. 100 The green leaves proudly praised themselves for giving the dark flowers to the earth. Branches refuse to accept that they have given green leaves to rely on, only the trunk, bow their heads, and deeply believe that their source of life is the root buried underground forever.
This fable tells us that we should never forget our roots. What children need is filial piety.
It goes without saying that our parents gave birth to us and raised us. When they are old, they need our reward to take care of them. If a person doesn't even want to repay his parents, what else does he have? In ancient times, because of his poor family, Sean could not support his mother and raise his children at the same time, so he decided to bury the children and save rice to foster his mother. When he was digging a hole to bury his children, he accidentally found an altar of gold, so Sean was blessed by God and supported his mother and children with gold.
This is a story about burying a child and adopting a mother. Liang Jing is a person who never forgets his roots, because he knows that there will be children in the future, but there will be no more mothers. In his mind, his mother is the root.
What citizens of a country need is a patriotic heart, a heart that always faces the motherland. In the early days of the People's Republic of China, everything in our country was in its infancy, lacking high-tech technicians, technical knowledge and equipment.
At this time, when some foreign scientific and technological personnel learned about these situations, they deeply understood how much the motherland needed them at this time! As a result, they gave up the advantages of foreign countries, broke through many obstacles, and finally returned to the motherland, devoted their energy, and let their value shine in the motherland. Deng Jiaxian and Yang Zhenning are such people. They love the motherland, never forget the fundamentals, and are willing to contribute to the motherland. This is the fundamental heart that a branch should have.
As a people's official, what you need is to always serve and think for the people. As the saying goes, "water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it."
This shows the importance of the people. The eternal rosy clouds of the people of Ren Changxia are devoted to their own work, thinking about how to solve problems for the people.
However, some officials, relying on their own power to seek financial benefits, do not take the affairs of the people as their own business, forget the root, he gave up the people, and the people can only give up him. Such officials are doomed not to last long.
Facts have proved that no matter when and in what capacity you live, you can't forget the fundamentals.
4. Feel the classics of ancient Chinese and learn the opening name of 450 "University". "The way of university lies in virtue" directly points out that the purpose of study is to improve one's beautiful moral character. "Close to (new) people, stop at perfection" is the elaboration of "Mingde". To improve one's good moral character, one must constantly raise one's spiritual realm to a new height and finally reach a "perfect" realm. "Things have a beginning and an end, and things have an end." First of all, we should make clear the purpose of learning and understand what is "the foundation" and what is "the end". Perfecting one's moral character is the "foundation" of learning. Then, it puts forward the "eight goals" to realize the goal step by step, and then expounds the purpose, methods and main points of the step-by-step learning after "respecting things, knowing things, being sincere, being upright, cultivating oneself, keeping the family in order, governing the country and leveling the world" Find your own position, grasp the root, gain knowledge, don't deceive yourself, cultivate your morality first, straighten your heart first, put your family first, run the country first, and run the country first. Since ancient times, people have attached great importance to the problem of character cultivation. A person remembered by the world is not how much he contributed, but his noble character and virtue.
Why did ancient people attach so much importance to personal cultivation? Why is it so difficult for people to do it now? In ancient times, the productivity was low, the economy was underdeveloped and the social temptation was relatively small. There are fewer conditions for a person to survive. As long as "you can eat, drink, learn and cultivate your body and mind". Nowadays, with the progress of science and technology and the rapid development of society, people's ideas are also changing. If a person wants to survive, he must live well. If he doesn't help others, he must keep studying, working and making money. Therefore, the pressure of survival is great, and I am busy all day. Who cares about their own cultivation? Coupled with too many temptations from the outside world, survival is not just about being born, but living. Faced with all kinds of temptations, it is vanity to want something better. Constant comparison can only make you tired and futile. Off-topic, this has nothing to do with today's free market economy and the country's "running fart (GDP)" in order to improve it. A child begins to study for his future survival when he is three or four years old, and some begin to study when he is one or two years old or even not born. What have you learned? I learned nothing except survival skills. Survival is a problem, who will do those things that are not! ?
"Everything has a beginning and an end." In fact, modern people have got the problem backwards. "Survival" means "keeping the family in order, governing the country and leveling the world", while "self-cultivation" (that is, "Ming De") means respecting things, knowing, being honest and being upright. "Mingde" is "foundation" and "existence" is "end". Modern people, on the other hand, put the cart before the horse and abandon their roots to catch up with the rear. No wonder you are nervous, worried and miserable all day. In the words of Confucius, "If I listen to the lawsuit, I am still a human being, and I will make it litigation-free!" This paper expounds that we should grasp the root of things and make clear what the purpose is. "Litigation is to avoid litigation", and soon many dignitaries put the cart before the horse. They handle cases not to reduce cases and protect the rights and interests of the masses, but to take this opportunity to obtain benefits and benefits. This is why "yamen has been facing south since ancient times, and it is reasonable to have money and not come in", which only lasts until today. Today seems to be interpreted incisively and vividly, and the cover-up is seamless.
There is an intriguing sentence in the translation notes here, "I hope there is no disease in the world, so why worry about putting medicine on the shelf to produce dust". Look at today's society, how many "doctors" in hospitals prescribe expensive drugs and useless drugs for the benefit of money, which makes patients waste money, restore health and suffer psychologically. Needless to say, those fake drugs and false advertisements are flying all over the sky, attracting countless patients to "compete". Speaking of which, it seems a little far. Putting the cart before the horse will not only fail to solve the fundamental problem and achieve the expected goal, but will be counterproductive. I think this is the fundamental reason why people's happiness is declining today with the continuous development of economy and the continuous improvement of living standards. It is also the reason why the attitude of * * * to the people and the attitude of the people to * * * form a huge contrast.
In short, if you want to learn knowledge, you must first make clear the purpose of learning, grasp the root of the problem, and master the correct methods, so as to improve your self-cultivation and virtue. Only when the quality of every citizen is improved can the social atmosphere and social outlook change. Only the country can truly forever strong.
5. Thinking about the review of classical Chinese In view of the problems existing in the review of classical Chinese, I would like to make some suggestions, hoping to provide some help to the majority of senior three students.
First, return to textbooks and expand appropriately.
Review still needs to return to textbooks, which are fundamental. Some students think that the classical Chinese materials of the college entrance examination are all from extracurricular activities, so we should pay close attention to the classical Chinese content after class. There is no need to review the text, because the classical Chinese college entrance examination in the textbook will not be tested at all. I don't think this idea is desirable. To be sure, reading more extracurricular classical Chinese will definitely improve the reading level of classical Chinese, but if we only pay attention to extracurricular activities and get rid of textbooks, it will not be worth the candle. After all, there is a wide range of extracurricular classical Chinese, and the review time of senior three is limited, which can't keep up with the same questions as the college entrance examination.
In addition, we should understand a truth-"the examination questions are outside the class and the test sites are in the class." The examination of classical Chinese in college entrance examination, whether it is content words, function words, sentence patterns or translation, comes from the classroom. Almost all the test center settings over the years can find relevant knowledge points from textbooks. So don't give up textbooks easily when reviewing, but also strengthen the review of textbooks. Paying close attention to teaching materials is the key to getting good grades in college entrance examination. Maybe some knowledge points don't completely appear in the textbook, but they are definitely an extension of the knowledge in the classroom. Therefore, firmly based on textbooks and accumulating knowledge of classical Chinese in class is the best way to improve the reading level of classical Chinese.
Of course, if you want to get good grades in classical Chinese reading, it is not enough to only grasp textbooks. You should also extend to extracurricular activities and increase reading, so as to accumulate more classical Chinese vocabulary and cultivate a sense of classical Chinese language. You can choose the college entrance examination papers and simulation papers from famous schools all over the country to practice, which is relatively standardized; You can choose some simple articles, such as Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Strange Tales from a Lonely Studio, and Tales on Earth, which are suitable for extracurricular reading.
6. Experience of learning ancient Chinese. The 300-word classical Chinese, also known as classical Chinese, is the key to learning China's traditional culture, just as learning American literature requires reading the original English. Followed by traditional Chinese characters, but traditional Chinese characters are deeper, involving textual research, exegesis and phonology. This level is estimated to be beyond the reach of our professionals.
I have read classical Chinese intermittently for more than half a year, especially recently, and I have a deep understanding. These roles will continue to evolve over time. From the earliest Zuo Zhuan to the prose of the Ming Dynasty, although they are all in classical Chinese, the later they are, the better they are to understand.
Therefore, I think that if we can accept the four books Zuo Zhuan, Mandarin, Ram Zhuan and Gu Liangzhuan at the beginning, it will be basically natural to read classical Chinese later. Of course, the Four Books and Five Classics is also a good starting point.
7. Reading selfishness (classical Chinese) The fifth ethics is law-abiding, loyal, and there is no violation of laws and regulations when speaking or doing things. When his sons were often discouraged, he reprimanded them and drove them away. He sealed up and reported all the written opinions stated by officials that were beneficial to the country. That's what he is. He has no selfishness. He is honest by nature and lacks literary talent. When he was an official, he was known for his incorruptibility. At that time, people compared him to Gong Yu of the Western Han Dynasty. However, he lacks tolerance and dignity, so he is looked down upon by some people. Someone asked Fifth Lun, "Are you selfish?" He replied, "Some of my old friends gave me a swift horse. Although I didn't accept it, I can't forget him every time I choose an official in the court, but I have never appointed him. My brother's son is often ill. I went to see him ten times every night, but after I came back, I slept soundly. My son is ill. Although I didn't go to see him, I couldn't sleep all night. Like this, can you say that there is no selfishness? "
The so-called "selfishness" of the Fifth Lun is human nature. For example, the friendship with an old friend and affection for his son, Wu Lun is more plump, authentic and credible, and such "selfishness" can highlight his true selflessness, fairness and integrity.
