Chapter 120: Jimao Township Test (II)

People in the world always say that it is the most difficult to solve the problem, but in fact, Gao Pragmatic feels that the problem of these people is mainly that they can "get into it and can't jump out" when they read. In the view of high pragmatism, there are three keys to solving the problem: the height of thought, the strength of generalization, and the accuracy of language.

These three articles, in the future generations, are the basic requirements for whom?

A secretary who writes copywriting.

It's like there is a spirit of the central government that has been conveyed, and as a secretary of official documents, what does it take to uphold these spirits and turn them into local documents?

It is necessary to be able to look at the overall situation, which is called the height of thought; Tens of thousands of words are sprinkled with enthusiasm, which is for the whole country, and what can be corresponded to where he is located, must be perfectly refined, which is called the strength of generalization; The choice of words and sentences, and the habits of writing conform to the trend of the times and the needs of the moment, which is called the precision of language.

Gao Pragmatism was born in this way.

Therefore, for Gao Pragmatic, the same is true for Shiwen, which is nothing more than changing to the genre of Baguwen, where is the difficulty?

He almost didn't think about it, so he picked up a pen and wrote the problem on the straw scroll:

"The Tao is based on the sky, and the cultivation is also dedicated."

In this first article, Gao Pragmatic wrote quite casually, and the highlight of the whole text is actually to break the topic.

As for why this is so, it is not that he is pragmatic and does not pay attention to it, this is actually the experience taught to him by many seniors and senior brothers.

Most of the examiners are from the field, and they know that many of the candidates for the township examination have not woken up when they write the first article, and because they have to finish seven articles in one day, it is difficult to go back and carefully check and correct the opportunity, so generally speaking, not only is the text insufficient, but even sometimes the law is not strict, and it is difficult to determine the true level of a candidate.

So what to do? When an experienced examiner reads a candidate's first essay, they will only focus on solving the question to see how well the examinee has solved the essay in this article. If you solve the question well, you can generally conclude that the candidate's level is not too bad, and then you can continue to read his later articles.

If the question is not solved correctly, or it is not good, then the examiner will not expect much from the next essay - in general, unless the second essay is excellent, it will be a little difficult to get the right one.

This is the reason why Gao Pragmatic's first article focused on solving the problem. After solving the question, you can write casually, after all, the number of examiners is limited, and you have to read so many exam papers in two or three days, do you really think that people will scrutinize it word by word?

As long as the problem is solved well enough, the latter is generally "shaken a glance" to see if there are any major violations, and if not, it will be over.

However, this is limited to the first article, and the second and third articles cannot be operated in this way, because these two articles will be the examiner's focus on the examination.

Because generally speaking, after the first article is written in a daze, people should be almost sober, their minds begin to concentrate, and their thoughts begin to gush out, so the next two articles are the most critical.

Then from the fourth article to the seventh article, it entered the category of "not so important", because usually at this time, the candidate's talent and energy have been almost consumed, and the thinking has also entered a period of fatigue, and the article naturally begins to decline.

Gao Shishi, because there are many seniors and brothers with very rich exam experience around him - in fact, they also have rich experience in invigilation and marking - so he is very clear about what the most important thing is in today's exam.

The first and second articles, and the second and third articles! The rest is not enough, as long as there are no major mistakes.

Gao Pragmatic picked up the title of the second article and looked at it, and there were only four words on it:

The way is virtuous.

This sentence is of course very familiar, from the "Analects of Politics II", the whole chapter of the book is "Zi said: the Tao is to govern, all to be punished, and the people are free and shameless." The way is virtuous, all are courteous, shameful and qualified. ”

The "Tao" here means guidance, the "government" is the prohibition of the rule of law, and Qi means uniformity, that is, the criminal law is used to unify people's behavior so that they do not break the law. Freedom from punishment, and no shame, though they dare not do evil, but the heart of evil is not forgotten. Etiquette is the law of etiquette and etiquette, requiring moral education, the people are ashamed of doing evil, and the character is the meaning of the to, that is, it can be done, which is intended to emphasize morality.

Reading the four books can not only know the original meaning of this article, if you want to do well in the exam, Zhu Note must be clear, how can Zhu Note answer this paragraph?

Zhu Xi's note is: "Politicians are the tools of governance; The punishment is supplemented by the law of treatment. Virtue and etiquette are the foundation of governance, and virtue and etiquette are also the foundation. This is always the case, although it cannot be abolished, but the political punishment can keep the people away from the crime. The effect of virtue and propriety is to make the people better and better without knowing it, so those who govern the people should not be apostolic and should explore their roots. ”

This question is a deep-seated examination question, even in the previous life of high pragmatism, it is still the legal system prohibition and moral education are indispensable, although in all eras of history, the degree of the two is not the same, but in fact it has not exceeded the scope of what Confucius said.

The title only comes out in the last three sentences, which shows that the focus is on the three sentences of "Tao with Virtue", which compares the political discussion with the levels of "forbidden", "induced", "legal", and "self-rated", as well as the inference of "seeing responsibility", "seeing abandonment", "shame", "reluctance", and "naturalness".

Therefore, the focus of this question is not only to solve the problem to see the good and bad, but to point of view, that is, "reasoning".

The main focus of reasoning is to compare and compare, and the main energy of high pragmatism is also concentrated in these two places.

Here's what he wrote:

Don't be a villain, and be a gentleman with the introduction, which has the same meaning and is thick and thin. The world is the one who is kind, and it is unbearable. And this unbearable heart is enough to prove that the heavens are good in the grass.

The law is established to avoid it, and it is followed by the body, and its feelings are the same but shallow and deep. Those who have deep love in the world cannot forget their ears. And this view that cannot be forgotten has been sufficiently indoctrinated in Datong.

The meaning is clear, the argument is clear. But this is not enough, because this is only equivalent to the later argumentative essay to state the point, and further explanations need to be added, then it depends on the latter comparison:

But seeing that the fool is in the front, and the fool is in the back, he thinks that he is responsible for the national code, which is still true. Seeing the abandonment of the saints, it is unspeakable. There is a fact that can be discarded, and if the saint does not abandon it, he will not be at ease, and the heart of regret will intersect.

And from remorse to reluctance, reluctance to nature, thinking that the blame is on the court, it is still to say. Guilt in my heart is unspeakable. If there is guilt in the heart, and my heart will eventually gain guilt, then I can't be at ease, and the idea of cultivating energy is very strong.

……

Although the township test is much more important than the road test, Gao Pragmatic knows that there are many doorways in the examination room, and he still takes the test very quickly.

I won't know the results of the exam in the next few days, Gao Shishi went out without nostalgia, and was in a hurry to go back for lunch - the lunch for this exam was prepared in the examination room, and you were not allowed to bring your own, and theoretically all the money spent was the money of the imperial court. But the imperial court was stingy, and Henan was not very wealthy, so it was just two pancakes, a few slices of pork belly and a few pieces of fresh melons and fruits for lunch. Gao Pragmatic is 10,000 times richer in this life than in his previous life, and he has long been used to luxury, and when he saw that the pork belly was served as a cold dish, where could he eat it, so he gnawed a few bites of cake and waited for the early hand in the roll back to the inn to make up for the meal.

However, because he was the first to hand in the papers, he was still arranged to "lile", and he was sent back to his residence all the way, wasting some time. It was not easy for the family who came with him to come forward, so he could only follow all the way back to the small inn that he had chartered.
