1. Appendix (2), Translation of Jia Dao's biography
Dao, whose courtesy name is Langxian, was born in Fanyang. At the beginning, Jia Dao lost the literary field in a row, and the bag was very empty, so it was called a pagoda with no original name. After coming to Dongdu, he went to Beijing and lived in Qinglong Temple. During the Yuan Dynasty, the island was placed in a secluded area to enhance its beauty. When searching in the dark, no one noticed that there were princes and nobles in front of him. Taste sighed and said: "Those who know me well are the only ones who are hidden in the peaks of Zhisu and Baige in Zhongnan." Although he walked, sat, slept and ate, he kept chanting.
Try to straddle a donkey and spread the cover across the sky. At that time, the autumn wind was strong, and the yellow leaves could be swept away, so he chanted: "The fallen leaves are all over Chang'an." Fang thought about the alliance, and it was impossible to find it. Suddenly he thought "the autumn wind blows on the Wei River" as the right, and he was overjoyed, because Liu Qichu, the sudden and unexpected sign of the capital, was , was tied up overnight, and released the next day.
Later, I visited Li Ning's secluded residence by boat, and got a sentence: "The bird stayed in the tree by the pond, and the monk pushed the moon and came down the door." I also wanted to do "Monk Knock", but the refinement was undecided, so I chanted "Oh, draw your hands to do it" The momentum of careful consideration is surprising to all onlookers. At that time, Han retreated to Yin Jingzhao, and the chariots and cavalry came out. Unexpectedly, they rushed to the third quarter and crowded in front of the horse from left to right. The island is indeed right, but it has not been determined whether to "push" or "knock", and the mind wanders and does not know how to avoid it. Han Zhuzhi said, "It's better to knock the characters." Then he returned home with his bridle and discussed poetry. They became friends in commoners and were taught grammar. He went to the pagoda and was promoted to Jinshi. From then on he became famous.
The times are new and there is no place to live in Dagan. One day, Xuanzong walked to the temple and heard chanting from the bell tower, so he climbed up and took the scroll from the island case to read it. The island didn't recognize it, so because of his lust, he grabbed it with his arms and said: "Lang Jun is satisfied with the fresh wine. Why is this happening? "The emperor went downstairs. Then he felt great fear and went to the palace to await his punishment, which surprised him. Later, he was awarded the title of Chief Registrar of Changjiang in Suizhou, and later moved to Sicang in Puzhou. On the day of death, the family had no money, only a sick donkey and a guqin. At that time, who didn’t love his talent but regretted his fate!
The island has a clear and elegant appearance, talks about mysteries and embraces Buddha, and makes friends with people outside the world. The taste is depressed and the livelihood is in disarray. He wrote in his own title: "I got two sentences in three years, and once I recited them, I shed tears. If I don't appreciate my good friend, I will go back to my hometown in the autumn." Every New Year's Eve, I would take a piece of work made by one year old and put it on a few tables, burn incense and worship again, and drink wine and say a toast. "I've been working hard on this all year round." He drank long songs and stopped. This collection of ten volumes, together with one volume of "Poetry", has been handed down to the world.
Translation:
Jia Dao, named Langxian, was born in Fanyang. At first, Jia Dao repeatedly failed in the examinations and had no money, so he became a monk and became a monk. His Buddhist name was Wuben. He came to Luoyang, the eastern capital, and soon went to Chang'an, the capital, where he lived at Qinglong Temple. During the Yuanhe period, Jia Dao found his own way. , the style of poetry has turned into a lonely one, and is used to correct the flashy style. While he was meditating on searching for verses, the princes and nobles standing in front of him turned a blind eye. He once lamented: "The only people who understand my daily wishes are the hermits on the Zige Peak and Baige Peak of Zhongnan Mountain." Even when walking, sitting, sleeping, and eating, he kept reciting hard.
Guandao once rode a skinny donkey and held an umbrella across the avenue. At that time, the autumn wind was blowing violently, and the piles of dead leaves falling from the trees could be swept away, so he chanted: "The fallen leaves are all over Chang'an." I was thinking about the couplet, at a loss, and suddenly thought of using "Autumn wind blows on the Wei River" as a counterpoint, and I happily He couldn't control it, so he offended the convoy of Jingzhao Yin and Liu Qichu. He was imprisoned all night and was released at dawn.
Later, Jia Dao took his free time and rode a skinny donkey to visit Li Ning's hermitage, and recited a poem: "The bird stayed in the tree by the pond, and the monk pushed the moon down the door." He also wanted to push "the monk" "Changed it to "Monk Knock". I thought hard about these two words but still couldn't decide. I recited them rhythmically and reached out to push the door and knock on it. People around me were surprised to see it. At that time, Han Yu was appointed as Jing Zhaoyin and happened to come out with his convoy. Jia Dao unknowingly bumped into the third section of the motorcade. Han Yu's men swarmed up and pulled Jia Dao in front of Han Yu's horse. Jia Dao told Han Yu the specific situation truthfully, saying that he could not decide whether "push" or "knock" was better. His mind was wandering outside the physical world and he did not know how to avoid the convoy. Han Yu stood on horseback for a long time and said, "It's good to type." So he rode back with Jia Dao and discussed the method of composing poems together. Han Yu became friends with Jia Dao as common people, so he taught Jia Dao how to write poems. Jia Dao returned to secular life, passed the Jinshi examination, and became famous ever since.
At that time, Jia Dao had just passed the imperial examination and was living in a place where there were no poets and monks in Fagan Temple. One day, Xuanzong went to Fagan Temple incognito. He heard the sound of poetry reciting from the bell tower, so he climbed up He went upstairs and picked up the poem scroll on Jia Dao's desk. It seemed that Jia Dao didn't know the emperor, so his expression changed. He rolled up his sleeves, looked sideways at Xuanzong, took the poem scroll and said, "Sir, you should be self-sufficient in food and clothing." Well, why do you understand poetry?" The emperor went downstairs. Soon Jia Dao came to his senses and was very frightened. He hid under the palace steps waiting to be punished. The emperor was very surprised. Later, Jia Dao was made the chief registrar of Changjiang County in Sui, and was gradually promoted to Sicang of Puzhou. When he was dying, his family didn't have a penny, only a sick donkey and a guqin. When the news of his death spread, who didn't love his poetic talent and regret that he was ill-fated!
Jia Dao has a thin appearance but a good expression. He likes to talk about mystical principles and believes in Buddhism. The friends he makes are all people from outside the world. His family was in a depressed situation and his livelihood was difficult. He wrote a poem of his own and said: "Two lines are obtained in three years, and one recitation brings tears to my eyes. If I don't appreciate my good friend, I will go back to my hometown in the autumn." Every New Year's Eve, Jia Dao will definitely take out the poems he has written in the past year and put them on a few tables. On the table, he burned incense, bowed twice, sprinkled wine on the ground and prayed, "This is my hard work over the past year." Then he drank and sang loudly before giving up. Ten volumes of his works are now collected and combined into one volume of "Poetry", which has been handed down to the world.

4. "Jia Dao's Examination" was changed from classical Chinese to a composition of 500 words
Once, Jia Dao was riding a donkey on Zhuque Street in Chang'an. It was late autumn, and the golden wind blew and the fallen leaves were floating. Gone with the wind, the scenery was very charming. Nan Dao was so happy that he recited the sentence "Falling leaves are all over Chang'an". But after thinking about it, this was the next sentence, and there had to be a previous sentence. He began to think hard, while riding a donkey to He walked forward, muttering to himself. An official came over from the opposite side and kept blowing the gong to clear the way. The gong was so loud that Jia Dao didn't hear it. The official was none other than Jing Zhaoyin, who in today's terms is Chang'an. The mayor of the city, his name was Liu Qichu, was very angry when he saw Jia Dao coming over. Jia Dao suddenly got inspiration and shouted: "The autumn wind brings about the Weishui River." Liu Qichu was startled and thought he was a madman, so he asked someone to kill him. He was arrested and imprisoned for a night. Although Jia Dao suffered a lot, he composed a poem "Reminiscences of Wu Chushi on the River": The sails of the Fujian country were sailing away, and the toads were lost and rounded. The autumn wind stirred up the Wei River, and the fallen leaves covered Chang'an. This is It was the evening of the party, and the thunderstorm was cold. Lan Yang had not returned yet, and the news was in the sea." Jia Dao suffered a loss, but he still didn't have a long memory. Not long after, he rode a donkey to the official road again. He was thinking about it. One line of the poem was "The monk pushed the moon down the door." But he felt that pushing was not appropriate, so he might as well knock it. He kept thinking about it. Unknowingly, he rode a donkey into the official house. In Han Yu's honor guard. Han Yu was more civilized than Liu Qichu. He asked Jia Dao why he was trespassing. Jia Dao made a poem of his own, but in one sentence he couldn't decide whether it was better to use "push" or "knock". After hearing this, Han Yu burst into laughter and said to Jia Dao: "I think it's better to use 'knock'. If the door is closed, how can you push it open?" Besides, when you go to someone else’s house and it’s night, it’s still polite to knock on the door! Moreover, the word "knock" makes the night more quiet, with a little more noise. There is movement in the silence, isn't it lively? "Jia Dao nodded after hearing this. Not only was he not punished this time, but he also made friends with Han Yu... 5.
