A story about learning Chinese characters in a 5-word composition of Grade One.
Chinese characters are very interesting and magical, and they are a good helper for our daily communication.
I remember when I was four years old, my mother taught me to read three words a day.
One sunny day, my mother took out the literacy book as usual and taught me to read. My mother pointed to the word "kai" and said, "This word is pronounced kai." Mother took out a paper box and opened it. He said, "Do you understand this? "Open" means this. " Mother said, "Come and read after me several times." I have completely mastered the pronunciation of "Kai". Then, my mother taught me to recognize the word "heart", and my mother taught me little by little with her hands. I watched my mother's mouth shape read over and over again. When I can read both words, I know my mother will test me. As expected, my mother took out a milk candy from her pocket and said, "If you get the following question right, this candy will be awarded to you." What is the antonym of "happy"? I just learned the word "off" a few days ago, and knowing that "on-off" is a pair of antonyms, I said, "It's so simple, of course it's caring." My mother was blinded at once, and I explained, "On and off are antonyms, and the antonym of happiness is of course caring." Mother laughed and said, "Little fool." But he gave me the candy for that class.
It's funny to think back on that incident now. Chinese characters are really amazing.
"II" The story of ancient calligraphers learning Chinese characters
Get to the point
Wang Xizhi of Jin Dynasty, with few words, is a rare talent in the world. At the age of seven, he was good at calligraphy. At the age of twelve, he saw the ancient "Pen Shuo" in his father's pillow and stole it. Father asked: "Why did you steal my secret book?" Wang Xizhi just laughed and didn't answer. Mother said, "Look at Pen Shuo." Father saw that he was young and was afraid that he could not keep a secret. He said to Wang Xizhi, "I'll teach it to you when you grow up." Wang Xizhi sincerely asked his father: "Give it to me now. If I wait until I am an adult, I am afraid I will bury my childhood talents. " Father was very happy and gave it to him. In less than a month, calligraphy has made great progress. After Mrs. Wei saw it, she said to Wang Ce, who was the official of Taichang, "Wang Xizhi must have read Bi Shuo. Recently, he has read his calligraphy and has developed a mature and steady style." Mrs. Wei said with tears: "This child will definitely be more famous than me." At that time, Emperor Jin was going to the northern suburbs to offer sacrifices, and asked Wang Xizhi to write his congratulatory message on a board, and then sent workers to carve it. The engraver cut the board layer by layer and found that Wang Xizhi's calligraphy ink had been printed into the board. He cut into the depth of three points before reaching the bottom! Woodworking marveled at Wang Xizhi's pen power, his calligraphy skills were perfect, and his pen strength was so impressive! Although the legend itself is somewhat exaggerated, it is very appropriate to use it as a metaphor for good calligraphy skills and thorough analysis of problems!
There is a Mo Chi in Jiezhu Temple, West Street, Shaoxing City. Legend has it that it was the place where Wang Xizhi washed his pen.
at the age of 7, Wang Xizhi practiced calligraphy and was diligent and eager to learn. At the age of 17, he stole his father's previous calligraphy works and read them. When he was ripe, he practiced writing. Every day, he sat by the pool and practiced writing, seeing off the dusk and welcoming the dawn. He finished writing more or less ink, and wrote more or less rotten pens. After practicing writing every day, he washed his pens in the pool water, which turned a pool of water into ink for a long time. This is the legendary Mo Chi that people saw in Shaoxing today.
< 3 > What are the stories of sharing Chinese characters with classmates? For example, the copied story of Bei
Some animals that live in the water attack and use shells to protect their bodies. The word "shellfish" in Oracle Bone Inscriptions depicts the two shells of shellfish open. Bei, pronounced bèi in Chinese, was first seen in Oracle Bone Inscriptions, and its original meaning is the general name of Gastropoda and Claphabranchia in oysters, clams or other mollusks, namely "Shuo Wen Jie Zi": "Bei is also a marine insect." It also refers to shells, shell-shaped patterns, etc., and also refers to money made of shells or shells in ancient times.
In ancient times, people thought shells were beautiful and precious, and they liked to take them with them as ornaments. Moreover, shells can be carried around and are not easy to be damaged, so the ancients also regarded shells as coins. Therefore, the words with "Bei" as the radical are mostly related to money, for example, "earn, compensate, purchase, poverty and goods".

The revelation of an ancient Chinese character
There is such a Chinese character "bow fish", with "bow" on the left and "fish" on the right. The word "bow fish" is not common, but a knowing word, that is to say, the ancients made this word according to an event or some scenes. At that time, it was undoubtedly an event they were familiar with. However, due to the long time interval, the hidden information of the word "Bowfish" and why the ancients created this word have become a mystery throughout the ages.
Strangely, I can't find the word "bow fish" when I read the Chinese Dictionary and Cihai. "Bowfish" first appeared on bronze tripod and bronze plate unearthed from the site of Bowfish Country in Shaanxi Province. Historically, the word "bow fish" did not appear on other utensils, and it is a "simple" Chinese character, so future generations can trace the story behind it effortlessly.
The reason why we pay so much attention to the word "bow fish" is because there is a little-known ancient Shu history behind it. A bow and arrow, a fish and a bird are carved on the golden staff of Sanxingdui, and the fish is penetrated by the bow and arrow. The same pattern also appears on the golden belt of Jinsha. Gold is a heavy weapon in ancient times. The ancients carved patterns on gold wares, which must mean war, vows, migration and other major events. For a southwest ethnic group, before writing appeared, the ethnic group may use some symbols to record the important events of the tribe. Then, what passwords will be hidden in a bow and arrow and a fish? In fact, if expressed in Chinese characters, "bow" and "fish" just constitute the word "bow fish". Chinese characters are associated with the prehistoric golden staff and pictures on the gold belt in Chengdu Plain. Why do the ancient Shu people want to express what they want to express appear on the bronzes at the Gongyu National Site in Shaanxi Province? What is the relationship between Sanxingdui, Jinsha Site and Bowfish State Site?
A sudden fire
The site of Bowfish Kingdom is like the shadow of Sanxingdui and Jinsha sites. However, not all questions can be answered in Bowfish Kingdom: Bowfish Kingdom was in the Western Zhou Dynasty, hundreds of years later than Sanxingdui ancient country. What is their relationship? Bowfish National Green Copper Man sits in the tomb, but why is the bronze giant buried in the sacrificial pit? Perhaps all the answers are hidden in an unexpected fire.
One night more than 3, years ago, the sleeping Sanxingdui people were awakened by a fire and intense smoke. They found that the national ancestral temple had been swallowed up by the raging fire. Sanxingdui people rushed to the ancestral temple, however, because the fire was too fierce, they could not get close to the ancestral temple at all, so they had to worry helplessly. The towering ancestral temple collapsed, beams and rubble smashed on the gold, bronze and jade articles on the sacred case, and the vertical mask hanging in the ancestral temple collapsed, and the bronze giant might also be doomed, and was smashed in half by a beam.
When Sanxingdui people stepped into the ancestral temple again, it had been buried by rubble and broken walls, and the ancestral temple symbolizing the foundation of the country had been reduced to ruins. The bronze figures, vertical masks and bronze sacred trees handed down from ancestors have been damaged to varying degrees and lost their former spirits. The ancestral temple used to be the most sacred place in Sanxingdui ancient country, but now, honor belongs to the past. Sanxingdui people have encountered a thorny problem.
Historians guess that Sanxingdui Temple was destroyed by a fire instead of a war because the two countries were at war in ancient times. Although there was a habit of burning the temple, the treasures in the temple were not destroyed, but were transported back to China as trophies to show off their victory. "Mozi" records that the two countries are at war, "killing their sacrifices, burning their ancestral temples and killing all the people", and burning ancestral temples is often commonplace. However, in the past, when the State of Qi cut down Yan, Qi Xuanwang "destroyed its ancestral temple and moved its heavy weapons" and shipped the treasures of Yan back to the State of Qi; Sun Yat-sen also took part in the battle of cutting Yan, and used the superior copper plundered from Yan to cast the famous copper square pot of Sun Yat-sen King. Sanxingdui bronzes and jades were hidden in two sacrificial pits. Obviously, the enemy would not be so kind.
The sacred objects dedicated to the gods have been burned, and in the eyes of Sanxingdui people, they have completely failed. In ancient history, many prehistoric tribes often discarded sacrifices that they thought were ineffective. When Austrians went hunting and failed, they would beat the gods. Sanxingdui people don't intend to continue using these sacrificial objects that have fallen out of favor. They dug two pits on the Mamu River and buried these failed sacred objects in the ground forever. Sanxingdui people obviously have enough time to do this work. The sacrificial pit is flat and regular. There are small bronzes, jade brothers and jade Zhang piled up at the bottom of the pit, with large bronzes in the middle and more than 6 ivory on the top, so that future generations can't notice any trace of haste. When the deformed bronzes, jade articles and gold articles were buried in the dust, the wealth accumulated by Sanxingdui people for centuries also vanished at that moment, and the horn of migration sounded.
A group of divided and fractured ancient Shu people
The collapsed ancestral temple finally took away the stability of the ancient country. In the minds of most Sanxingdui people, the land that once raised them became ominous after the fire. However, they didn't know where to migrate. There was a fierce quarrel and confrontation within Sanxingdui ancient country, and the huge ancient country moved towards division and fracture at this moment.
The ancient Sanxingdui country came to an end in the later years of Shang Dynasty, but in the Zhou Dynasty, the ancient Jinsha country in Chengdu and the Gongyu country in Shaanxi gave birth to new hopes for the ancient Shu civilization. We might as well infer that after the burning of the ancestral temple, Sanxingdui people wanted to find a new paradise. However, Sanxingdui people did not agree on the direction of migration. Perhaps, some of them yearned for the Chengdu Plain, while others insisted on moving north. Neither of the two groups of Sanxingdui people could convince anyone, and after a grand but bleak farewell ceremony, they embarked on a journey respectively. Sun Hua believes that one of them came to Chengdu Plain and re-established a country comparable to Sanxingdui in Jinsha. The Sanxingdui people in southern Shaanxi have a lot of fate. In a foreign country, they must regain the trust of cultivated land, rivers, bronze and even the powerful Zhou Dynasty. On the banks of the Weishui River, this group of tenacious Sanxingdui people established the "Bowfish Country". In the eyes of future generations, the "Bowfish Country" is a kingdom with infinite memories and memories of Sanxingdui, and a kingdom living in the past.
The newly arrived Bowfish people were once very active, and Bowfish Bo became their new leader. During the Western Anniversary, Bowfish Kingdom ushered in a beautiful political marriage. Jing Ji, the daughter of Jing Bo, an important official of the Zhou Dynasty royal family, married Bowfish Bo. In order to survive in the cracks, the Bowfish Kingdom in history had to rely on marriage to maintain its relationship with the Zhou Dynasty and the neighboring countries, namely, Yaguo and Mianguo. However, the peace brought by marriage was short-lived, and the Bowfish Kingdom was once at loggerheads with Yaguo and Mianguo, and a series of marriages could not stop the decline of Bowfish Kingdom.
In the Western Zhou Dynasty, during the Mu King's reign, Yaguo gradually became powerful and became one of the most active vassals in the western part of Guanzhong. The fertile land north of Weishui gradually fell into Yaguo's hands, and Gongyu was forced to move to Rujiazhuang area on the south bank of Weishui, relying on the natural barrier of Weishui to deal with Yaguo. From the information revealed in the site of Bowfish Country, it is not difficult for later generations to find that Bowfish people are struggling. Although there are many bronzes unearthed from the Tomb of Bowfish in Rujiazhuang, they are very small in size, sloppy and crude in production, showing an atmosphere of decline; After the mid-Western Zhou Dynasty, the activities of the Bowfish Kingdom in Rujiazhuang, Qingjiang and Zhuyuangou areas on the south bank of Wei River have been blurred. At this time, the Bowfish Kingdom has been broken, or I don't know where it has migrated. In a tomb numbered BRM3, along an inclined long pyramid-shaped mound, archaeologists found that there were no funerary objects in this royal tomb, and there was a skeleton wrapped in reeds near the tomb. The dead man had a trace on his neck and was obviously strangled. Many scholars believe that this ancient man who was hanged may be the skeleton of the last king of the Bowfish Kingdom. In the face of the overwhelming army of the vector country, the Bowfish Kingdom finally died out. Since then, the legend about the Bowfish Kingdom has finally calmed down.
The Legend of Cangjie's Word-making
(1)
The legend of China's words was first created by Cang Xie, and only with words did mankind really enter the civilized era. Cangjie's word-making is the first of its kind in China and the source of Chinese civilization. A stone tablet in Cangjie Temple in Sanhuali, south of Qishan County, records the legend of Cangjie's word-making.
According to the myths and legends in ancient books, Cang Xie,No. Shi Huangshi, was the official historian of Xuanyuan Huangdi. According to historical records, Cang Xie, with four eyes, was born with a sense of virtue. He often observed the curving trend of Kuixing, observed the traces of birds and animals' hoofs, and created the first characters according to its likeness, eliminating the ugliness of knotting knots at that time and creating the foundation of civilization. He was honored as "Cang Xie, Wen Zu".
In ancient times, people could only talk but could not write, so it was inconvenient to record things. Legend has it that once, Cang Xie's mother went out to pick mulberry, and Cang Er was knitting baskets at home alone. Suddenly, a friend of the same year came to tell him that a tiger on the mountain killed a yellow cow in the village and ate it. Cang Xie was very angry and made an appointment with a partner to kill pests. Before he left, he drew a tiger on the western wall and a circle with a little dots in it, which means he can't come back until the sun goes down. When Cang Xie's mother came back, she saw a tiger painted on the wall and a well next to it. She mistakenly thought that her son was driven by the tiger to jump into the well and fainted with anger. In the evening, when Cang Xie came back from hunting, he saw his mother's face sallow and dying. He asked what was sad, and she explained why. She died soon after being frightened. Cang Xie is both regretful and sad. From then on, he rode a donkey and mule, left home, observed the local conditions and customs, recorded dialects and dialects, and determined to create words.
At that time, there was no paper, so Cang Xie recorded the collected data on bark and reed leaves. The donkey and mule were overloaded, and they were exhausted when they reached Cangjiemiao Village in Qishan County. Cang Xie couldn't move on, so he found a thatched cottage to stay, and he was busy writing and painting from morning till night. At that time, he was thinking about the words "out" and "heavy", which should be "heavy" on the mountain and "out" when traveling thousands of miles away, but because the noise of frogs disturbed his thoughts, these two words were reversed. In a rage, he was full of thick ink and threw it viciously into the pond next to him. The idea of ink inked all the frogs' mouths, and the frogs stopped barking. Up to now, the frogs' mouths here are all black, and there is a poem that says, "Cang Jie has a strong idea of word-making, and the little frog cackles constantly, and the magic pen taps the ink to seal his mouth, and he will be silent forever." It is said that Cang Xie created a lot of characters here, and there are poems among the people to prove it: "Cangjie created a stone millet, and Confucius read seven buckets and seven buckets, and the remaining two buckets were useless, and they were scattered to neighboring countries to give to foreigners."
Cang Xie and Cangjie's creation of Chinese characters are discussed in many dictionaries and regulations. "Cang Xie wrote a book" in The Spring and Autumn Annals of Lu. Huainanzi records: "Shi Huang was born to write." Preface to Shuo Wen Jie Zi: "Cang Xie, the history of the Yellow Emperor, saw the traces of birds and animals' hoofs far away, and knew that the present can be different and different, and constructed a book contract." Cang Xie, the recorder of the Yellow Emperor, saw the traces of birds and animals, and knew how to distinguish different things from their essence and external manifestations, which began to create words.
