Overrated Classical Chinese

1. A one-sentence review of Chinese classical literature

Original text:

To the east of the city of Linchuan, there is land hidden but high, facing the stream, called the new city. On top of the new city, there is a pool that is hollow but becomes longer. It is called Wang Xizhi's Mochi, as Xun Bozi's "Linchuan Ji" says. Xi Zhi admired Zhang Zhi and came to the pond to study calligraphy. The water in the pond was completely black. This is a trace of his past. How can you believe it is evil? Fang Xizhi could not force himself to be an official, but he tasted the extreme east and went out to the sea to amuse his mind among the mountains and rivers. How could he wander around as much as he wanted and then try to rest in this way? Xizhi's writings were late and good, but what he could do was accomplished by his own energy, which is not natural. There is no one in the next generation who can reach it, so how can it be that his learning is not as good as that of others? How can there be less learning? Is it evil to want to learn more about morality?

Above the Mochi is now the state school building. Professor Wang Junsheng was afraid that it would be inaccurate, so he wrote the six characters "Mochi of the King of Jin Youjun" between the couplets to reveal it, and told Gong: "I hope there will be a record of it." To abolish it, but because of its evil deeds? Does he also want to push his story to encourage his scholars to do evil? Madam, she is so capable that future generations will still be like this. How can the legacy of the benevolent Zhuangshi be relegated to the next life?

On September 12, the eighth year of the Qingli calendar, Zeng Gong was recorded.

Translation:

To the east of Linchuan County, there is a raised highland with a stream below, called Xincheng. Above the new city, there is a low-lying rectangular pool called Wang Xizhi Mochi. This was described by Xun Bozi, a native of the Song Dynasty in the Southern Dynasties, in "Linchuan Ji". Wang Xizhi once admired Zhang Zhi, a calligrapher of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and practiced calligraphy by this pool. The water turned black because of it. This is his legacy. Is this really what happened? When Wang Xizhi did not want to be forced to become an official, he traveled all over the East and boated on the East China Sea, taking pleasure in the mountains and waters. Could it be that when he traveled freely and enjoyed his sights, did he ever rest here? Wang Xizhi's calligraphy gradually improved in his later years. It seems that the reason why he has such profound attainments is the result of his hard work, not the result of genius. But no one in later generations could match Wang Xizhi, maybe because they didn’t study as hard as Wang Xizhi, right? It seems like the time spent on studying can be reduced! What's more, what about people who want to achieve high moral achievements?

Next to the Mochi is now the school building of Fuzhou Prefecture School. Professor Wang Jun was deeply afraid that Mochi's deeds would be forgotten, so he wrote the six characters "Mochi of the Right Army of Jin Dynasty" and hung them between the two pillars in front of the door to mark it. He also said to me: "I hope there will be a narrative article." "I speculate that the king's intention is that he likes the strengths of others and refuses to let them be buried even if they are skills, so he also pays attention to his relics? Or do you want to promote Wang Xizhi’s hard study in the pond to encourage students here? A person's skills can be respected to such an extent by future generations, not to mention how the customs and virtues left by benevolent gentlemen will affect future generations!

On September 12, the eighth year of Qingli, Zeng Gong made a note.

amp; lt; amp; lt; Mo Chi Ji amp; gt; amp; gt; Zeng Gong was invited by Wang Jun, a friend of Fuzhou Prefecture School, to write a diary about Wang Xizhi's Mo Chi. The language of the article is simple and the description is concise. The purpose is clear and the intention is lofty. 2. I am looking for an autobiography in classical Chinese, with a word count of 200 and an introduction to ideals, and the level is average.

I am from Mayong, Dongguan, with a flying name; I have been fond of watering since I was a child, and I love swimming and basketball. I live by the river because I think my name is Yan. He is restless and talkative, and does not seek glory and profit. He likes to blow water, but his skills are not good. Whenever he understands something, he happily forgets to eat. I was traveling for sex, and my family was poor, so I couldn't get it often. My friends knew that I was like this, so they introduced me to Banli Road. Mysterious people, including pigs, dogs, oxen and horses, work harder than coolies. He wakes up earlier than a chicken, goes to bed later than a dog, eats worse than a pig, lives worse than a rat's nest, jumps faster than a monkey, walks more wrongful paths than a horse, climbs higher than a yak, and is tanned darker than a Tibetan . Even so, I was still drunk. I read less and walk more; in order to increase my knowledge and broaden my horizons. Whenever I get the chance, I don't hesitate to abandon the class. You can have a panoramic view of the motherland’s famous mountains, rivers, places of interest, and delicious snacks from all over the country.

The journey is relaxing and enjoyable, making people forget to leave. Later, my friends saw that I was drunk and thought I was lost, so they told me to leave and took off my clothes. How can we know it if it is not among them? The world is hot and cold, and the ridicule and ridicule make me feel that walking thousands of miles is better than reading thousands of books. Feel the economy and culture of small cities, appreciate the local customs and customs of hometowns in all directions; make friends, meet confidants, and have friends all over the world; talk about state affairs, discuss ideals, and speak freely. Understanding is constantly deepened in practice, and practice makes understanding wider and wider. How can it be said that it is confusing? "When the whole world is turbid, I alone am pure; when everyone is drunk, I alone am awake." It’s better to go your own way and let others tell you! It's rare to be confused in this world, right?

This is a template, you can read it yourself. Remember to give points if you can. 3. Please beg for some classic ancient texts and comments

Eight Records of Yongzhou by Liu Zongyuan, Shide Xishan Banquet Travel Notes, He killed people for free and lived in this state.

Hengxuanli. If there is a time gap, then you can travel freely and travel long distances.

He and his disciples went up high mountains, into deep forests, and back to streams, where they could see secluded springs and strange rocks. When he arrives, he will sit on the grass, pour the pot and get drunk.

When drunk, they sleep together and sleep together. The meaning is extreme, and the dream is also of the same interest.

Arise when you wake up, and return when you rise. I thought that any abnormality in the mountains and rivers of the state was due to me, but I didn't realize the strangeness of Xishan.

On September 28th this year, I was sitting in the Western Pavilion of the Lotus and looking at the Western Mountains, and I started to notice something different. Then he ordered his servants to cross the Xiangjiang River, dye the edge of the stream, chop the hazelnuts, burn the cogon grass, and go up to the high mountains.

If you climb up with a hand and fly with a skip, all the soil in several states will be under the skip mat. Its high and low momentum is as complicated as a cave, thousands of miles in size, and there is no way to escape.

The sky is green and white, and the outside and the sky are the same. Then I realized that this mountain is unique and not similar to Peiyuan. It is as long and graceful as Haoqi, but it cannot reach its end. It is as if it is swimming with the Creator and does not know its end.

After drinking a glass of wine, I became drunk and didn’t know the sun was coming. The pale twilight comes from afar, until I can't see anything, but I still don't want to go back.

The form of heart condensation is in harmony with all things. Then I realized that I had not started to swim towards it, but it had almost started, so I wrote about it with ambition.

It is Sui, the fourth year of Yuanhe. The story of Zhuanjuntan. Zhuanjuntan is located in western Shanxi.

At the beginning, the Gairan River rushed from the south, reached the mountains and rocks, and turned eastward. Stop; the foam forms a wheel, and then moves slowly. It is clear and flat, and has ten acres.

There are trees surrounding it and a spring hanging over it. There is a resident on it, so he is in urgent need of a visit. Once the money comes to the door, he will say: "I can't bear the accumulation of official rent and private bonds. Since I have moved to the mountain, I want to move to the mountain. I would like to trade the fields on the pond to alleviate the disaster."

It’s as enjoyable as it sounds. Then worship its platform, extend its sill, and walk its spring to the high one and fall into the pool, and there will be a murmuring sound.

It is especially suitable to watch the moon during the Mid-Autumn Festival, in order to see how high the sky is and how different the energy is. Who is happy to live in a foreign country and forget his homeland? Isn't this a good place for him? Drilling the West Hill of Juntan Pond. I remember that eight days after going to the west mountain, I looked for the northwest path of the mountain pass for 200 steps and found the Drilling Pond.

Twenty-five steps west of the pool, the weir beam is the one that is dredged by the rapids. There are hills above the beams with bamboo trees growing there.

There are almost countless people whose rocks suddenly shuddered in anger, carried the earth and came out, creating strange shapes. The ones that rush down in a row are like cattle and horses drinking in the stream; the ones that rush up in rows are like bears climbing up the mountain.

A hill is too small to cover an acre, it can be contained in a cage. Asked its owner, he said: "The Tang family abandoned the land, but the goods were not sold."

Asked the price, he said: "Only four hundred." I sold it out of pity.

Li Shenyuan and Yuan Keji were traveling together at the same time, and they were all overjoyed. It was unexpected. That is to say, he took out more tools, shoveled the filthy grass, cut down the bad trees, and burned them with fierce fire.

The beautiful trees stand tall and the beautiful bamboos are exposed. Strange rocks appear.

Looking from it, one can see the height of the mountains, the floating clouds, the flowing streams, the flying birds and beasts, and the skilful and skillful movements that are performed in order to imitate those under the hills. Lying down on the mat, the cold and cold state corresponds to the eyes and ears, the bright and clear sounds correspond to the ears, the leisurely and imaginary ones correspond to the divine counsels, and the deep and quiet ones correspond to the mind's counsels.

Those who arrive at a different place within ten days may not be able to get there even though they are people who love the past.

Alas! With the victory of Ziqiu, the Feng, Hao, Hu, and Du, the nobles and tourists will compete to buy it, and the number of gold will increase day by day, and it will become more and more impossible to get it.

This is a state that has been abandoned now. Farmers and fishermen have passed over it and are poor. There are four hundred merchants who cannot sell it for consecutive years. But Shen Yuan, Ke Ji and I are only happy to have it, but the consequences will be unfortunate! The writing is on the stone, so what happened to Heziqiu.

To the Xiaoshitan in the West of Xiaoqiu Walking a hundred and twenty steps west of Xiaoqiu, across a bamboo field, I heard the sound of water, like a ring, and felt very happy. After cutting bamboo, we took the road and saw a small pool at the bottom. The water was especially clear and cold.

The whole stone is used as the bottom, and when it is close to the shore, it is rolled up from the bottom of the stone to form a dike, an islet, a ridge, or a rock. Green trees and green vines are covered with swaying nets and are scattered and scattered.

There are hundreds of fish in the pond, but they all seem to be swimming in the air and have nothing to rely on. The sun is clear, and the shadows are spread on the rocks, but they are motionless; they are far away, flitting back and forth, as if they are enjoying themselves with tourists.

Looking southwest of the pond, you can see the twists and turns of snakes, and you can see the light and death. Its shores are so different from each other that its origin cannot be known.

Sitting on the pool, surrounded by bamboo trees, it is so lonely and desolate, I feel desolate and desolate. Because the place was too clear to live in for a long time, I remembered it and left.

Fellow travelers: Wu Wuling, Gong Gu, Yu Di Zongxuan. Those who followed were Cui's Erxiaosheng: "Forgive yourself" and "Fengyi".

Yuan Jia Ke’s Memory: Traveling ten miles from the southwest of Ranxi River, there are five things that are desirable in landscapes, none of which are the Drilling Pond. From the mouth of the stream to the west, we can travel by land. The best options are eighty-nine, most of which are Xishan.

Traveling by water from the southeast of Chaoyang Rock to Wujiang River, there are three options, none of which are Yuanjia Thirsty. They are all beautiful and strange places forever.

In the dialect between Chu and Yue, the backflow of water is called "thirst". The top of the thirst is combined with the Gaozhang of Nanguan, and the bottom is combined with Baijiase.

Among them, there is a small stream in Chongzhou, a clear pool and shallow water, with twists and turns, the flat ones are dark ink, and the steep ones are boiling white. If the boat travels slowly, it will suddenly become endless.

There is a hill out of the water, all with beautiful rocks and green bushes growing on them, which is always beautiful in winter and summer. There are many rock words beside it, there are many white gravels under it, there are many trees including maple, heather and camphor pomelo, and the grass is orchid.

There are also strange flowers, which are like acacia and spread over the water and rocks. Every wind comes down from the four mountains, vibrating the big trees, covering the grass, red and green, and fragrant, rushing the waves and swirling, retreating into the valley, shaking the lush flowers, and passing by with time.

Most of them are like this, and there are countless others. Yongzhi people have never traveled around, and Yu Dezhi dare not focus on it, so he goes out and spreads it to the world.

The landowner is the Yuan family. Hence the name.

Notes on the Stone Canal: I couldn't walk a hundred steps southwest from the thirsty place, but I reached the stone canal and the people's bridge on it. There is a spring that is quiet and quiet, and its sound is sometimes loud and sometimes soft.

The width of the canal may be close to a foot, or it may be twice as wide, and its length may be ten steps. The flow reached the big rock and fell out from under it.

Going over the stone, there is a stone pool, a prosperous pu quilt, and green freshness surrounding it. Then he turned west and fell under a rock, then fell into a small pool in the north.

The area of ??the pond has been reduced by a hundred feet, and it is clear and deep, with many swift fishes. Then he went to the north and wandered for a long time. His gaze seemed to be endless, but he suddenly fell into thirst.

On its sides are treacherous rocks, strange trees, strange flowers, and beautiful arrows, which can be lined up to sit and look down. The wind shakes its top and rhymes the cliffs and valleys.

Seeing is quiet, hearing is far away. I got it from Zhou Mu.

It is a pity that it has not yet been passed down, so I keep a record of its belongings, leave it to the person, and write down its Yang, so that those who can do good things in the future can find it easy.

On the eighth day of the first month of the seventh year of Yuanhe, the Ying Canal reached Dashi. On October 19, after crossing the stone, I found the small Shihong Pool, and the beauty of the canal began to end.

Story of Shijian The Shiqu is poor. It goes from the northwest of the bridge to the shadow of the earth mountain, and the people have no bridge. The water is as big as one-third of the stone canal, with a flat stone base and reaches both ends.

Like a bed, like a hall, like a table, like a banquet. It is spread horizontally on it, flowing like weaving and sounding like playing a harp.

He went there, broke off the bamboos, swept away the old leaves, and cleared away the rotten wood, and he could live in the eighteen or nineteen-year-old Hu bed. The flow of communication and the exciting sounds are all under the bed; the water with green feathers and the stones with dragon scales all shade it.

Ancient.

4. Evaluation of Wei Wuji's ancient prose

King Zhao has defeated Zhao Changping's army and has marched to besiege Handan. The sister of the prince (Jun Xinling, also known as Wei Wuji) is the wife of Pingyuan Jun, the brother of King Zhao Huiwen. She has left several letters to the king of Wei and the prince, asking the king of Wei to send General Jin Bi to rescue him. One hundred thousand people rescued Zhao." However, he "left his army in Biye, in the name of saving Zhao, to wait and see." Hou Sheng of Yimen offered advice to Lord Xinling: "Ying heard that Jin Bi's military talisman is always in the king's bed. Inside, Ru Ji was most fortunate to have gone in and out of the king's chamber, and was able to steal it. Ying heard that Ru Ji's father had been killed, and in the three years since the king's death, he wanted to avenge his father, but Ru Ji could not get it. The young master weeps, and the young master sends his guest to kill his enemy. He is willing to die for the young master, but there is no way out. Capture the Jin army, rescue Zhao in the north and defeat Qin in the west. This is the king's attack. "Young master, please follow his plan. If Ji Guo steals the Jin army's talisman, he will lead the slaughter." Zhu Hai went to Ye together to correct the King of Wei's order to replace Jin Bi. Jin Bi was in line with the requirements. He raised his hands and looked at the young master and said, "I have a hundred thousand people stationed on the border. It is an important task for the country. Now I am riding a bicycle to take my place." What's the matter? "You don't want to listen. Zhu Hai has forty pounds of iron spines, and he kills Jin Bi's army." "He has to recruit 80,000 troops to attack the Qin army and rescue Handan." , "Cun Zhao." 5. Has anyone commented on Yongxue's classical Chinese works? "Xie Renjian and Snow Night Poems" wrote: "The line about the fishing coop is so good that it can be painted, and the catkins are talented but not salty." This expresses the praise of Xie Daoyun's metaphor and the praise of the "fishing coop" line. Since then, Xie Daoyun has been nicknamed: "The Girl Who Yongs Xu". After that, "Yongxu Girl" became synonymous with talented women.

In "A Dream of Red Mansions" by Cao Xueqin of the Qing Dynasty, there is a judgment such as "It is a pity to stop virtue and pity Yong Xucai. Jade belts are hung in the forest, and gold hairpins are buried in the snow." Among them, "Yong Xucai" refers to Even Xie Daoyun refers to the talented woman in "A Dream of Red Mansions".

Fan Ziye, a member of the Chinese Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties History Society: This article creates a distinct image of Xie Daoyun, an intelligent and talented woman. The author deliberately portrays the artistic image of new women in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, which has high ideological and aesthetic value. 6. List 10 classical Chinese articles for me

Comment: Classical Chinese text "A Young Man with High Aspirations"

If a person has no ambition, he will have no goal. Without a goal, cultivating the body and mind will become water without a source. Therefore, if you want to cultivate your body and mind, you must first establish your ambition. If you have high aspirations, your heart will naturally be pure.

Commentary: If you don’t proceed from objective reality when encountering problems, you can only do bad things with good intentions.

The original text of the classical Chinese text of "Plucking the Seedlings to Help It Grow":

There were people in the Song Dynasty who felt sorry for their seedlings and plucking them because they were not growing. Help the seedlings to grow." His sons looked at them, but the seedlings were withered.

There are very few people in the world who do not help young people grow up. Those who think it is useless and abandon it are those who do not cultivate the seedlings; those who help the elders are those who pull out the seedlings. It is not only useless, but also harmful.

Translation of "Pulling Seedlings to Help They Grow":

There was a man in the Song Dynasty who thought his crops were growing slowly, so he pulled up the seedlings one by one. He returned home exhausted and said to his family: "I am exhausted today, but I helped the crops grow taller!" His son hurried to the field to see, but the seedlings had withered.

There are very few people in the world who do not make this mistake of encouraging others. Those who think there is no use in maintaining crops and ignore them are lazy people who only plant crops without weeding; those who help crops grow wishfully; it is this kind of people who encourage crops to grow; not only do they have no benefit, but they kill crops.
