Before the college entrance examination, Zhao Shixiong and a few pupils in his class were holding Cui Xie tightly, trying to get his luck in the examination. Pong Yan and Zhao's family, along with the elders who came to accompany the exam, were so crowded that they had nowhere to stay, so they had to wander outside to prepare the exam baskets for them.
The rules of the hospital exam are stricter than the previous two exams. Candidates are only allowed to bring one long-eared test basket, some writing and food, and not much else. Even the inkstone is prepared in the house. On the day of the exam, the prefectural and county school officials must accompany the school administration to call the name in front of the hall. When a student comes, he must be recognized by the county teacher to ensure that there is no substitute for the test.
When Cui Xie answered the number and entered the door, he felt that the eyes of all the examiners in the hospital were falling on him, especially Lord Xuezheng. He was a little suspicious that some Rudi Rutong had secretly accused him of cheating in the exam, and the Master Tixue stared at him like this.
It was not until the exam questions were sent out that he concentrated his energy on the questions, and then completely put the eyes of Lord Xuezheng behind him.
The first scene is, as usual, a series of four scriptures and a series of five scriptures. The title of the four books is an interception question, and the two sentences in Chapter 4 of "Mencius: Tengwen Official Zhangjushang" are "a beast is pressing, but it is close to a beast".
The chapter from which this question comes from is about Xu Xing, the master of the peasant family who cultivated and weaved his own clothing and food. Chen Xiang learned from this and asked Mencius in the words of Xu Zi: Teng Wen is a virtuous ruler, why does he take food from the common people to fill the treasury? You can't farm and eat like the people.
Mencius told him the principle of governing the world: the people in the world are divided into "great people" and "little people". , One person cannot be the world's affairs at the same time. During Tang Yu’s time, the world was in a prehistoric time, and the sages were worried about the people’s livelihood and had no time to cultivate by themselves. Could it be that the kings of the three generations were not wise
Of course not, but the roles of adults and villains are different. The adults are concerned with governing the world and educating the people; while the villains know ethics, loyalty and righteousness after they have enough food and clothing, and conduct all the servants to support themselves and serve the adults. This is the way to a prosperous world.
Therefore, although the title only writes about people and animals, the article should also point to the meaning of adults worrying about the world and protecting the people.
The general idea and key points have been figured out, so we need to start with the sentence where the topic is located and sort out the broken topic.
The sentence on the title, "Beasts are threatening people", refers to the fact that when Tang Yao was in power, the world was still in the era of flood and famine, the world was not at peace, the people were harmed, and the beasts led the way to eat people. Yao recommended Shun to govern the world in his place, and Shun ordered Yi to set fire to the mountains to drive away the animals, and Yu ordered the nine rivers to settle the nine states.
The following sentence "it is close to a beast" is about the fact that after the world was settled, Houji taught the people how to harvest crops, so that the people could live in comfort and warmth, but they lost their education. The sage was worried that the people would be like beasts, who only knew pleasures and did not know etiquette, so he made Qi a stuart to teach the people human relations and righteousness.
The meanings of these two sentences have nothing to do with each other. They just describe the hardships of the people in ancient times, not from the original intention of the sage. Therefore, when answering this question, one should not combine the preceding and following sentences into one, and break the question head-on, as in the prefectural test's "Ploughing in the spring and make up for the deficiency, and save for the princes"; ”, “Not to be close to beasts” to break the question.
When breaking the question, the names of people and things in the original sentence must not appear, so the word "animals" in the original question is replaced by "things". The original text is not only about beasts, but also floods, so the flood cannot be avoided in the text. When breaking the topic, floods and beasts should be lumped together—that is, things that endanger people’s survival. When solving the second half of the topic from the perspective of "people should not be close to animals", we should also grasp the "hazard", so that the top and bottom of the problem are related and become a whole.
While thinking about it, Cui Xie researched ink in the bluestone inkstone given out in the examination room.
The ink sticks slipped frequently in the inkstone, and the ink sticks did not come out well. It took a long time to develop half a pool of ink. However, in order to prevent the students from cheating in the examinations, they were all assigned such difficult-to-use crude inkstones. After all, he has practiced horseback archery and martial arts, and he has dozens of pounds of strength in both arms. Those weak scholars who usually don't even go out, I'm afraid they can't even sharpen the ink color.
He muttered silently, dipped the tip of the pen a little bit of precious ink, and wrote on the draft paper, "Those who harm things, think about harming people's hearts."
Breaking the question should be based on breaking the meaning. The meaning behind these sentences is that if people lose their education, they like to be indolent and dislike labor. Although there are sages who drive away animals and calm the world, the people will not be able to live in peace.
After the problem is solved, the problem must be accepted. Breaking the question is more expensive than breaking it secretly, and it is more expensive to be harmonious, but accepting the question must be clear and neat. When it comes to this sentence, there is no need to look for any words to refer to the characters in the original question. The word "beast" is directly taken, and according to the key point of "reverse breaking leads to positive inheritance, and joint breaking leads to separate inheritance", we undertake the "harm to people's hearts" in the broken topic. "meaning, and in turn initiates the argument that animals are harmed by animals, and people should not be close to animals and animals.
"The madam is not a group of animals. It's enough to worry about pressing people. How about you get close?"
After accepting the title, a sentence "original title" should be used to quote the above text where this title is located. The above is what Mencius said to Chen Xiang before the rise of the sages in Tang Yu's world, "there are matters of great people, and there are matters of little people". The villain is in the company, and if you are uneasy about your position, you will endanger the world.
And the sages of the prehistoric world are rising, all to protect the people.
In the following lectures and one or two comparisons, we will deduct the topic again. First, I will talk about the "beasts pressing people" in the first half of the topic: the sentence is succinctly suggested that in the world of Yao and Shun, there were "sages who came out", burning the mountains and lakes to drive away the animals; and the opposite sentence is written in reverse. The way of heaven rises and falls, because Shun resides in the virtue of fire, Yao inhabits the virtue of water, and heaven will order the virtue of fire to replace the virtue of water. Therefore, Yao Chan’s position after Shun is beneficial to burning mountains and lakes, and all animals flee, and can no longer harm the people.
After that, I will use a sentence of "problem" to point out the harm caused by beasts and beasts in the first half of the question, and then use the middle and two ratios to lead the upper and the lower. "It's close to a beast."
Because of the incomprehension of the comparison between the middle and the second, the function word at the beginning of the second two uses the word "wei", which compares animals with people and pushes the discussion of the comparison between the middle and the second a step forward. nature. Animals and animals should live in the mountains and forests, and should not come near and endanger people, and argue that people—that is, the villain mentioned by Mencius—should also be content with labor, farming, and weaving.
The last two comparisons are the center of the whole discussion. It takes a lot of brainpower to write these two lines of long sentences. Just as Cui Xie was about to close his eyes and take a rest, when he looked back, he suddenly saw that the school officer was patrolling from the right side of the examination room.
His heart jolted, and he immediately regained his spirits. His eyes refocused on the scroll surface, and his thoughts and thoughts got through, and he wrote down the second small section: still compare the beasts to people, and compare the beasts to the water and the fear of fire to the villains. Ease of work. This sentence is written, and there is even a conclusion - let the sage worry about it, and you can raise your mind and take care of the topic.
When Dai Yushi came over, Cui Xie didn't dare to lift his head, and wrote carefully one stroke at a time. He just hoped that Xuezheng would see his serious attitude in drafting and quickly believe that he was a good student who did not cheat. Feel free to leave.
He diligently wrote the last word, and Master Xuezheng finally moved. Unexpectedly, he didn't set off, but reached out and picked up the draft, and whispered: "Don't you remember it, write it down on the paper yourself, I'll take a look at this first."
Cui Xie raised his head in surprise, but Dai Yushi turned around and said lightly, "It's a good life to write, and the next question must not be perfunctory!"
He rolled the scrap paper and walked leisurely around the arena, leaving Cui Xie alone to face the blank roll of paper. Behind him, a patrol officer came over to refill his water, gave him a quiet wink, and nodded to him.
Master Tixue still values you very much, and you don’t need your money for drinking water.
Cui Xie mistakenly thought that he meant "Master Tixue is very optimistic about your article, I didn't come to find fault with you." He felt relieved, and hurriedly took out a few pieces of silver for him, took a sip of hot water, and continued to scrutinize with a pen. Poetry title.
The practice of the academy exam is that the Grand Master reads the papers alone, and whoever he likes takes the one. Dai Ren took Cui Xie's manuscript paper, went back and sat in the hall to read it several times, only to feel that his style was slightly different from that of the government examination: he was less abiding by the line and ink, there were codes everywhere, and the chapters and sentences were his own words; the writing was more free and easy, and more Tends to the grand discussion, with the momentum of the ancient style of the people.
He called the Qian'an County Disciple to come and ask, "Is this student's county test paper here? Is the essay in his county test in this style? Call me back and I'll compare it with each other."
The instructor looked at the scroll and replied respectfully: "It's similar in style to this one. He was instructed by the county magistrate in the past, and he likes to mix ancient and modern languages." The formatting rules of the article are good.”
Dai Yushi didn't want to pick on faults, but just after listening to the instructor said that his articles were directed by Qi County Magistrate, he remembered the beautiful and shallow travel notes in "Qi Zhiyuan's Public Works", and couldn't help laughing: "Is it really your Magistrate's guidance? The two articles are too different, Qi Daring's one was written by a 16-year-old Wenxiu boy, but this article is like the style of a mature and important person."
The instructor did not dare to criticize Shangguan, but just stood by and listened.
Dai Ren just laughed, looked at the ink scroll in his hand and said, "The rhetoric is not elegant enough, but the discussion is vertical and horizontal, and the turning point is extraordinary. You can see him sometimes writing about animals, sometimes writing about people, sometimes citing saints... His momentum is like a mountain. Yun Lian, the first chapter is connected with each sentence, and the top and bottom are completely connected.
The instructor figured out what he meant, and asked with a bit of joy: "Does the adults value this student?"
Dai Ren said: "I would also like to accept him as a student. Unfortunately, I will be resigning as a school supervisor next year, and he is going to be assigned to the county school again. His fate is shallow."
Among the students admitted in the academy, the top 80% are generally assigned to the county and the last 20% to stay in the prefecture. Being able to enter the county school means that they are not only selected, but also in the forefront. This kind of good students who can write and have the hope of taking the imperial examination are also what the second school of the county government is fighting for. If they can fall into the county, they will take the middle township and will be able to take the test in the future.
Jiao Yu got up happily, and bowed his hands to Dai Ren: "Xiaguan will thank the Lord Xuedao for his support on behalf of this student!"
Dai Ren smiled and told him to go back to prepare the county test papers, put the draft on the table by himself, and continued to patrol the field.
There are no major imperial examination counties in the Yongping prefecture. The more than 100 freshmen enrolled by the government, plus the children who were not selected in previous years, and the military sanitation who were sent to the army, were finally less than 2,000.
The examination room was newly built in Yongping Prefecture, and it can accommodate two or three thousand people. This time, he took all the candidates from Liuzhou County and Yiwei to the same examination. The examination room was still empty. You can see at a glance. He walked around inside, dismissed a few people, and swept through all the drafts of Tong Sheng, and he had a bottom line...
Seeing that a little Sanyuan was about to be born under his hands, Dai Tixue felt a little joy in his heart. He picked up a pen to write a letter to his fellow countryman, and told him reservedly and indifferently, "I got a genius in Yongping Mansion."
