When there are many trees and foliage, the shade is large enough to have a breeze and a bright day.

The students of Hongwen Hall and the students from Guozijian moved a table and a mat to sit on the ground, the space in the school room was too small to sit so many people, so they all sat outside in the shade of the tree at the suggestion of Xia Hongsheng.

It was the first time that the students were sitting outside in class, and it was also the first time they were in class together, and they were very excited and in good spirits, which was exactly what Xia Hongsheng wanted to see.

"Senior brother, Master Yan has called you over these days, do you know anything? The students of Guozijian are also here, what are we going to do? Xu Qixian turned his head and saw Xia Hongsheng, so he asked. When he asked, the other people around him also looked at him, hoping to get some news from Xia Hongsheng's mouth.

Xia Hongsheng smiled and didn't say anything: "I'll know later." ”

After that, in a blink of an eye, Li Gang and Yan Shigu were sitting in a column on the right side of the whiteboard, with the whiteboard on the left and the students on the right. However, in later life, there were more lectures, and I had to be listened to at least one class a week, which was not much pressure. Xia Hongsheng calmed down in his heart and looked at Yan Shigu, Yan Shigu was looking over, the two looked at each other, and Yan Shigu nodded at him.

Xia Hongsheng also nodded, Yan Shigu raised his hand, and there was a sudden silence below, and no one made a sound. Xia Hongsheng stood up.

Everyone was surprised, and they all looked at Xia Hongsheng, and saw Xia Hongsheng walking to the front, smiling and glancing at the students who were looking at him with some consternation, and then took out a carbon strip from the package without saying a word, turned around and wrote a sentence on the whiteboard: This year is really bad luck and no money to enter the door.

This was originally a story about Zhuzhishan in the Ming Dynasty, but Xia Hongsheng tampered with it in order to arouse the interest of these students and put it here.

The students below didn't know what he was going to do, and when they saw him write, they all looked at him inexplicably.

But I heard Xia Hongsheng say: "I once met a scholar who was beaten and sat on the side of the road with a blue nose and swollen face, thinking that he was also a scholar, so he stepped forward and asked. The scholar told me that he was poor, and he couldn't write and think, and he was so busy doing nothing that he couldn't even eat. When he saw that there was a happy event in his neighbor's house, he thought about going over to ask for a full meal, but the master of the house treated the scholar politely, and gave him enough food to make the scholar have a full meal. As for the scholar, I feel that I can't eat white food, so I write a congratulatory message to you, which can be regarded as a courtesy. Of course, the master of the house was happy, and immediately cut the red paper and spread it out, and the scholar thought about it, and then took up a pen and wrote a congratulatory message on the red paper. I don't need to say any more, everyone probably guessed it, it's what I wrote just now. ”

Xia Hongsheng spread his hands, staggered, and pointed to the sentence written on the whiteboard.

Although the students below didn't know what Xia Hongsheng was going to do, they understood the story, and someone immediately laughed below: "No wonder that scholar will be beaten with a blue nose and swollen face." People were kind enough to let him eat a full meal, but he wrote a curse to this master's family, which was really unkind! But, Jingshi, what are you doing? ”

Xia Hongsheng's smile was even worse: "Oh? Brother, how did you know that the scholar was cursing the master's family? ”

"You can see it from this glance, this year is really unlucky, and there is no money to enter the door - this scholar is too bad." Before the student could answer, another student laughed and said, "No wonder that scholar is so unconscionable, but it's no wonder that others." ”

The students below immediately echoed the voice.

Xia Hongsheng smiled even brighter: "You guys thought of going with me, and I was also very angry after listening to it, so I said that scholar, saying that people are kind enough to invite you to dinner, but you write a curse on red paper, this beating is not in vain, you deserve it!" But who would have thought that the scholar had a bigger temper than me, and he screamed that he was wronged when he slapped the stone next to him, saying that he had obviously written a congratulatory speech with good intentions, although he was not good at writing, but how could he not distinguish between the congratulatory speech and the swearing? Besides, although he has not achieved anything, the book of sages is not read in vain, so how can he do it like that, and then curse others after gaining the benefits of others? ”

"But he obviously wrote curses!" Some students below are dissatisfied: "Still want to quibble?!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the surrounding students immediately echoed.

Xia Hongsheng clapped his hands: "That's what I said too!" But who knew that the scholar read it to me, and I was dumbfounded, and then apologized to the scholar in a gray manner. ”

"Huh?"

"How can that be?!"

"What's going on?!"

The students below were suddenly taken aback and asked one after another.

"Hehe......" Xia Hongsheng shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said: "The scholar read it to me: This year is really good, there is no bad luck, and wealth enters the door." Then he clapped his hands and asked me, you say, where is this curse? It's really wronged! ”

After Xia Hongsheng finished speaking, he looked at the group of students below with a smile and stopped talking.

The group of students below were taken aback, looking at the sentence written by Xia Hongsheng on the whiteboard, chattering back and forth in their mouths, it became a curse for a while, a congratulatory message for a while, and they understood it after a few times, and they all laughed out loud below.

Xia Hongsheng waved his hand and said, "Speaking of this matter, I will remember another story. It is said that the two countries are at war, and one of the armies is in ambush, trying to wait for the army of the other country to pass by and surprise them. After the ambush was set up, the scouts reported that they had found traces of enemy troops. The adjutant general proposed to send someone over to see the number of enemy troops, so he sent a literate young general to climb the hill to see, write it down and tie it to his bow and arrow and shoot it down the mountain, so that it would be faster and not lose the opportunity. The man climbed up the hill and looked, oh, the dense enemy army, there were too many people, and the sneak attack could not be achieved. So he hurriedly wrote and shot his bow and arrow down the mountain. Before he could go down the mountain, he heard a shout of killing, and it turned out that his team rushed up, and the young general was suddenly shocked. In the end, of course, the team suffered heavy casualties and were all captured. When the two met in the enemy camp, the young general asked: General, I told you that there were too many enemies and that a sneak attack would not work, so why did you rush forward? When the general heard this, he was furious and said nonsense, and the name of the note was written, 'The enemy army will not work'! Stopping the march in the valley, when will it be better not to sneak attack at this time?! The young general was stunned: What I said was, 'The enemy army is not good', there are too many enemy troops, we have to retreat if the sneak attack is not possible, the note is too short to write so many words...... The two of them burst into tears, and then, there was no more, and both of them were beheaded. ”

Xia Hongsheng shrugged his shoulders and said, "You said, these two people misunderstood this sentence, and they killed themselves, not to say it, how many soldiers did they kill?" ”

The students below burst into laughter again.

Xia Hongsheng didn't speak, just stood there calmly and watched the students babble and laugh there.

Yan Shigu saw that those students were laughing a little presumptuously, so he wanted to speak out to help Xia Hongsheng control the scene, and after glancing at Xia Hongsheng, Xia Hongsheng knew what he meant, so he shook his head slightly. Yan Shigu was stunned for a moment, then smiled and watched the play again. Xia Hongsheng gave such a lecture, which really made Yan Shigu very novel.

Xia Hongsheng didn't care about the laughter of the students below, turned around and wrote a few more sentences on the whiteboard, it was those two sentences, but they both left a gap from the broken sentence. The same sentence means two completely different things.

After Xia Hongsheng finished writing, he let go of the whiteboard and quietly looked at the students below. They looked at what Xia Hongsheng had written again, and several of them had already begun to suppress their laughter, revealing thoughtful expressions. Xia Hongsheng continued to wait, and the laughter below gradually became smaller, gradually stopped, and turned into a thoughtful look, and the few just now seemed to be clear.

"Jingshi, I said before that 'the people can make it impossible to know it', and today's sentence is also due to the difference in the sentence, resulting in two completely different meanings." Wei Shuyu stood up, hugged his fist to Xia Hongsheng, and asked, "Today, what Jingshi is going to do is not related to this sentence?" ”

Xia Hongsheng nodded, glanced at the students below, and said, "Throughout the ages, how many sages have left wise words and classics to teach and guide us. But to us, those words are not taught by ears and faces. There are many, thousands of years have passed. Countless people have interpreted it for thousands of years, and who of us can guarantee that the person who interprets it will not make the mistake made by the master family in the thing I just told you? Because of the mistake of breaking the sentence, the 'congratulation' has become 'curse', which has misinterpreted the meaning of the sages, become a wrong guide, and lead us astray? We also wrote articles and poems, and even in the future, some of us could become Confucian scholars and be honored as sages by future generations. But future generations have not heard what we said with their own ears, some people break sentences like this, some people break sentences like that, thousands of years later, who knows how the articles we write will be interpreted? Do we have to be like that scholar, who was wronged with good intentions and misinterpreted our meaning? Why can't we have a way to avoid this? Just like that scholar, if he has a way to ensure that others will not misunderstand what he means, will he still be wronged and beaten by mistake? Let's take an analogy, if this sentence 'This year is so good luck and no money to enter the door' is what we wrote today, and we gave it to a distant friend in a letter, and we originally congratulated him, but when we got to him, it turned into swearing him, and I am afraid that this friend will not be able to do it. So do we have a way to make him see this sentence and not misinterpret our good intentions? ”

"This ...... You can't send someone to follow the letter to tell him how to break the sentence, right?! One student thought.

"Well...... That's right! We can also do the same as when Jingshi wrote it just now, just spaced out! "This student is very smart.

Xia Hongsheng nodded and said with a smile: "We can be separated, but what if it is not a letter, but a classic?" If we are writing something that is not so simple, but something very complex, how can we make sure that when others read it, they will not misinterpret us, clearly understand what we are writing, and know what kind of mood we are writing it with? ”

"This ......"

"Jingshi, since you proposed it today, you must have already thought of a way, right?" Li Ke stood up and asked.

Xia Hongsheng nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, today I will teach you a set of punctuation mark sentence breaking methods, and if you write in this way, you will not be misunderstood by others." Come to think of it, if that scholar also has this method, he doesn't have to be beaten that badly, and if that sergeant has this method, he won't be defeated because he misunderstands the meaning...... Haha, everyone, would you like to learn? ”

"I want it!" The students below were suddenly enthusiastic and shouted, and they saw that Li Yexu was scratching his ears and cheeks there: "Jingshi, hurry up, tell me if there is any way!" ", the house of reading! Unique URL:
