Chapter 715: Praise for the Champion Talent (2)
The description of the environment in the poem is both symbolic and foiling, which can be called a famous sentence.
Fishing wood at the entrance of the cave
The entrance of the cave is entangled with the water, and the two mountains support the boat side.
The fishing rod fishes the river and the sky is foggy, and the sound of the axe is the smoke of the idle ridge tree.
Mountains and rivers meet and people are happy, and Yuwei goes to exchange wine and feast.
Unwilling to honor and disgrace, there are fewer wit, where there are more immortals.
This is the eighth poem "Fishing Wood at the Mouth of the Cave" written by the author of "Eight Views of Xinchang" written by Xinzhou. Lu and Jin Ershui will be at the mouth of the cave ten miles north of Yuncheng, and converge into the Xinjiang River leading to Zhaoqing. Dongkou Wei is the waterway wharf of NSW, a concentration point for ships.
This poem depicts the natural and beautiful scenery of Dongkou, one of the main scenic spots of Xinchang, and captures the characteristics of mountains, water, river fog, axe sounds, and people to express primitive beauty, natural beauty, and simple beauty, and praises the author's love for the beautiful natural environment of Xinzhou.
The writing of this poem is characterized by the integration of feelings, the combination of movement and static, and the staggeredness. The characters in the poem are a fisherman and a woodcutter. When writing about the fisherman, he uses a static depiction, in which a fisherman dressed in a cloak and a hat is fishing alone on the river, detailing the quiet scene of the foggy river.
When the fisherman retracted the rod and returned home, he suddenly heard the sound of the woodcutter chopping wood from the other side of the mountain, which led to the woodcutter in the dynamics. This combination of movement and stillness makes the whole poem staggered. Then write about the imaginary scene of the fisherman and the woodcutter meeting in the fog and the sun is shining.
Finally, the poet used the theme to express the dark phenomena of autocratic rule, intrigue and rejection of dissent between the DPRK and China at that time, reflecting the poet's hope for reform of the status quo and the strong desire for the emergence of a harmonious society in which the government is honest, the atmosphere is clean, the country and the people are safe, and everyone lives in harmony. This poem combines fiction and reality, tactfully and implicitly, and is intriguing.
Gu Zhangjiao spoke in detail, and the students listened with relish.
Famous teachers produce high apprentices. Under the guidance of Gu Zhangjiao, the quality of the students in Yuncheng School is obviously better than that of students in other places.
Gu Zhangjiao also likes to chant poems as pairs, and he has a soft spot for couplets. He likes to ask questions to students in class, and often asks others to respond to him with a random uplink or link. When others couldn't answer, he spoke it out and explained it with a smile on his brow to show off his knowledge.
On this morning, the sun shone obliquely into the school through the window lattice, and the students all sat upright, Gu Zhangjiao's eyes swept down, and after explaining the intention of this class, he said, "Now I will make an upper link, and you will answer the next link." ”
Students: "Ask the teacher to do the question." ”
Gu Zhangjiao coughed a few times, picked up the chalk, and wrote a couplet on the blackboard, and he chanted the words on the blackboard: "There is no pile of wood at the foot of Acacia Mountain." ”
None of the students raised their hands, and no one spoke out to answer.
Gu Zhangjiao knew that Zhu Decai usually had outstanding academic performance and had a certain amount of research on couplets, so he walked up to him and said, "Zhu Decai, can you answer?"
Zhu Decai nodded: "Since it was the teacher who called my name, then I'll give it a try." Excuse me, what do you ask for in response to your couplet?"
Gu Zhangjiao pointed to the distant mountain outside the window and put forward his request: "All the couplets answer each other, and the parts of speech and the peace of the upper and lower couplets must be relative." The Acacia Mountain where I went up is local. You can't answer with something else either!" His request was a bit harsh.
Zhu Decai stood up, through the window, looking around, not far away is the rippling Danan River, a long stone steps stretch from the bank to the river, seeing this scene, Zhu Decai's heart was suddenly pushed away, inspiration surged, suddenly knew in his heart, walked up to the podium, picked up the chalk, wrote out the next couplet of the answer, and then read: "There is a hundred steps by the Danan River." ”
It is no accident that Xiao Zhu Decai replied like this. Because Jinshui, where his mother's house is located, is in the Danan River group.
There is a hundred steps paved with blue bricks, like a ladder stretching diagonally from the flat ground to the Danan River, and people are used to calling that ladder "Hundred Steps Ladder".
"There is not a pile of wood at the foot of Acacia Mountain, and there are 100-step ladders by the Danan River." After hearing this, Gu Zhangjiao carefully pondered, smiled and nodded, "Zhu Decai, you are right this time." ”
Seeing that he was praised by Gu Zhangjiao, Zhu Decai proudly said: "Teacher, I don't think it's difficult for you to come up with a couplet." ”
Gu Zhangjiao saw that Xiao Zhu Decai replied like this, and seemed to be a little light, so he thought for a while, and after the sign behind the deep glasses flashed, he said: "Since you said that this couplet is not difficult, then, I will give you another pair of more difficult ones, and see who can answer." Okay, okay?"
Most of the students present are self-aware, so they don't dare to speak up, and some of them are eager to try with good academic performance on weekdays, saying, "Please let the teacher come out." ”
Xiao Zhu Decai: "Yes, please ask the teacher to come out." ”
Gu Zhangjiao's eyes looked out the window, it was spring at this time, with blue sky and white clouds. The swallows are murmuring, flying against the surface of the water, peach and willow green, the spring water is circulating, and there is a busy scene of spring ploughing everywhere. Not far from the hundred-step ladder, there are several waterwheels, and there are farmers stepping on the waterwheels. As the feet of the waterwheel turned to each other, the water in the river was brought to the paddy fields by the pages of the waterwheel.
The heartstrings of the master seemed to be plucked by something, and said, "There is, there is." ”
Xiao Zhu Decai: "I hope the teacher will come up with the question." ”
"The watermill and the waterwheel turn." Gu Zhangjiao put the white beard on his chin in his hand and said this couplet, and wrote it on the blackboard with chalk.
The student read it word by word: "The watermill and the waterwheel turn." ”
The little fat man sitting in the first row called "Fat Tsaihua" couldn't help but ask: "Teacher, this couplet is only seven characters, but the word 'car' already accounts for four, how to read it, and how to explain it?"
Gu Zhangjiao's eyes swept around, coughed lightly, cleared his throat, and pointed to the main points of the uplink written on the blackboard to explain: "There are four 'car' characters in this uplink, but the parts of speech in them are different. The first 'car' is a noun, the second 'car' is a verb, and those two 'car' are also nouns. There is also the first word to be the same as the fourth word. Therefore, when you come out to match this couplet, it should not only reflect the current spring ploughing life of the farmers, but also correspond to the various sexes. ”
This couplet, in the eyes of Gu Zhangjiao, has almost become absolute, not to mention these rural students, even teachers in the city are difficult to answer.
"Oh, that's too hard." After listening to this, the students here turned around their heads, and you looked at me.
Looking at you, I can't answer.
Gu Zhangjiao deliberately walked up to Xiao Zhu Decai's side and said, "You smart boy, you can answer." ”
Gu Zhangjiao's couplet is too ingenious, and the requirements are extremely strict. seems to be praising Xiao Zhu for getting rich, but in fact, he is putting pressure on him in public.
Xiao Zhu Decai looked at the upper link on the blackboard with fixed eyes, not biting his ears at this time, but biting his lips, and the tide in his heart kept rolling. Those eyes looked out the window, and nearby there were farmers holding plows on or over paddy fields. In a few fields farther away, large buffaloes were rolling round fields to flatten the ploughed fields. When the field roller rotates, the roller presses, making a "squeak" sound, and the spring breeze blows, which can still be heard.
Xiao Zhu Decai's eyes rolled, and the face that had been tense relaxed, "There is, there is." ”
Gu Zhangjiao looked at him in disbelief: "Zhu Decai, what did you think of?"
patting his head, Xiao Zhu Decai did not answer positively, but pointed out the window and asked, "Teacher, what do you see?"
Gu Zhangjiao followed what he was hoping for, and saw that there were many villagers in the fields outside who were busy in their fields, calmly: "There are people plowing the fields nearby, and some people are raking the fields. Someone in the distance: "The next link I answered is about Tian." ”
Xiao Decai raised his voice: "The sound of the field wheels." ”
After Gu Zhangjiao heard this, he pondered and said, "Zhu Decai, you go to the podium and write the next couplet you said on the blackboard." “
"Okay." After Xiao Zhu Decai responded, he left his seat, walked to the podium, picked up the chalk, and as the crumbs of the chalk fell one after another, Xiao Zhu Decai wrote the next couplet he answered under the sub-couplet.
The students looked at the blackboard, and the upper and lower couplets were neatly opposite each other, forming a complete couplet.
Gu Zhangjiao: "Zhu Decai, you can explain in public the next link you should deal with." ”
Mr. and listen: "Xiao Decai pointed to the newly written couplet, and explained it unhurriedly: the first word, referring to the round field wheel, is a noun, and the second word "wheel" is the action of the field, so it is a verb, and the last two "wheel" words are nouns. The first and fourth characters of the next link are both the word "Tian". Teacher, the couplets you asked for must reflect farm work, and now my answer is not all in line with your conditions?"
Xiao Decai's couplet can be said to be very accurate, Gu Zhangjiao felt that this student's talent was extraordinary, and after thinking for a while, he said: "This couplet, the upper and lower couplets each have seven words, short, of course it is easy to answer." I'll make a longer one, what do you think?"
The students all like to be lively, so they all shouted, "Okay."
Gu Zhangjiao deliberately asked Xiao Decai, "What do you think?"
Xiao Decai: "Mr. asks the question, and the student answers, this is a matter of the class." We had the opportunity to listen to him. ”
"Okay, be careful." After Gu Zhang's teaching, he wrote his couplet on the blackboard with chalk, then shook his head, pointed to the words on the blackboard, and recited it word by word, "Ox head pot, cow head pot, cow head pot cracked cow head pot." Subsequently, Gu Zhangjiao explained the unique place in this association and the basic requirements of the response.
Ox head pot is a cooking utensil for making soup, and it is used to cook cow head, which is a common thing in rural families. In this couplet, four words "pot" are used before and after, but the same word and sound are different parts of speech: the first and the second and third "pot" are verbs. Such an esoteric downlink, let alone asking these milky elementary school students to answer on the spot, even if they call the county's talents, racking their brains to answer on the spot may not be able to have a good answer.
After hearing Gu Zhangjiao's explanation and requirements, the students looked at each other and shook their heads one by one, expressing their helplessness.
Gu Zhangjiao gently knocked on Xiao Zhu Decai's desk with his hand and asked, "Zhu Decai, if you answer correctly, I will give you a special reward and exempt you from tuition for the next semester."
Waiver of tuition for the next semester? There's a frog that jumps down the street?" Xiao Zhu Decai looked serious, "Sir, do you count when you say this?"
Gu Zhangjiao's face was serious: "I have always been a gold envoy with teeth. Now, in front of so many students, how could I break my word?"
In order to raise tuition for this semester, Zhu Decai knew that Daddy and his mother had borrowed from all over the place, and it was not easy to scrape together enough money to let himself enter this school. Now when he heard that if he answered the couplet correctly, he could be exempted from tuition for the next semester, of course, he was overjoyed, clapped his palms, and exclaimed, "This is great, great."
Gu Zhangjiao's face immediately became cold: "You must know that if there is a reward, there will inevitably be a punishment." If you can't answer, or if you answer incorrectly, you will be punished. Gu Zhangjiao picked up the rattan on the teaching table and shook it, and said with a gloomy face: "If you don't answer well, you will use this chicken feather to sweep your palm three times in a row."
Don't look at the chicken feathers sweeping small, but the palms of the hands are hot and hot, which is heart-wrenching. Faced with this condition, Xiao Zhu Decai was confident, and replied loudly: "Okay, okay, okay!" If I don't answer well, I'm willing to be punished on the spot in front of my classmates. ”
The classmates didn't say anything, but they secretly sweated for Xiao Zhu Decai.
Gu Zhangjiao: "What content did you answer?"
Xiao Zhu Decai pointed to the chicken feather sweep in Gu Zhangjiao's hand and said, "It."
"Feather sweep?" Gu Zhangjiao pondered for a while, and said to Xiao Zhu Decai, "You will write the answer to the lianzi on the board." ”
"Okay," Xiao Zhu Decai left his seat, walked up to the podium, picked up the chalk, and wrote a line of words on Gu Zhangjiao's lianzi, and then read aloud: "Chicken feather sweep, sweep chicken feathers, chicken feathers sweep rotten chicken feather sweep."
Gu Zhangjiao looked at the line of words on the blackboard, and pondered while reading: "Chicken feather sweep, sweep chicken feathers, chicken feathers sweep rotten chicken feather sweep."
Chicken feather sweep is a daily life utensil, ordinary people use it to clean, Gu Zhangjiao uses it to teach students. There are four words "sweep" before and after this couplet, and the same word and the same sound are different parts of speech: the first and last "sweep" words are nouns, and the second and third "sweep" in the middle are verbs. The coupling that Xiao Decai replied with Gu Zhangjiao's coupling, whether in terms of sentences, parts of speech, or flat usage, can be described as seamless.
Gu Zhangjiao repeatedly recited the pair that Xiao Zhu Decai answered, and after carefully tasting it, he was exclaimed in his heart: "I can't imagine that Zhu Decai can answer the couplet so neatly at such a young age!"
Gu Zhangjiao stroked Xiao Zhu Decai's head with his hand, and praised loudly: "Zhu Decai, you have a great answer, you are a champion!" Today's couplets can become a model for textbooks in the future! ”
