Through the memories and descriptions of several trivial matters in the author's lifetime with Mr. Lu Xun, this article shows Mr. Lu Xun's great personality of "pointing at a thousand people with horizontal eyebrows and coldness, bowing his head and being willing to be a son of a cow" and the author's infinite admiration and nostalgia for Mr. Lu Xun's teacher-student friendship.
Seven things are written around these two sentences in the whole text, which shows that these two poems set the criteria for the selection of materials, so that the scattered trivial matters have a center around and a clear thread throughout. Immediately after quoting these two lines, the author says: "This is a portrayal of himself, and the whole personality of his omen as a great writer."
set the tone for shaping Lu Xun's character, so these two poems are the steel of the whole text.
The lion is a metaphor for a strong country, the pig and sheep are a metaphor for a weak country, the stream is a metaphor for youth, and the muddy pond is a rhetorical scholar. Through metaphors, it vividly illustrates that China was in a situation of political corruption, weak national strength, and economic backwardness, and it was extremely dangerous to boast of the National Congress. Young people are simple, enthusiastic, and inexperienced, but they are positive, which is much better than the rhetorical scholars who make false statements and use them to frighten people.
At the same time, it strongly proves that Lu Xun's young people's speech focuses on teaching by word and deed, and the tone of not liking to use lessons is consistent.
It shows a firm, composed, brave, tenacious warrior character and unyielding fighting spirit.
Although the materials selected in this article are "trivial", but the connotation is profound, the author is good at discovering the profound meaning of Mr. Lu Xun's "storytelling", "telling jokes", "making analogies" and "making discussions", so he can see the great "sign of ideological maturity" from Mr. Lu Xun's "approachability"; From the "horizontal eyebrows and cold pairs", we can see Mr. Lu Xun's "essence of unremitting struggle all his life". In this way, a profound theme is extracted from the theme of ordinary travel, and the artistic characteristics of prose in the selection of materials are fully displayed.
The materials selected in this article are trivial, the narrative is like talking about homely things, and the writing is free, but because the whole text is always based on the two poems of "Heng Mei Leng to a Thousand Husbands, Bow Your Head and Be Willing to Be a Cow for Your Children" as the clues of the structure of the article, it has the structural characteristics of "scattered and gathered". In addition, in the narrative, both argumentative and lyrical expressions are used, which not only makes the text rich and emotional, but also makes the seemingly scattered materials naturally integrated.

In 1961, the author Tang Tao was transferred from Shanghai to Beijing, where he worked at the Institute of Literature of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. This year coincided with the 80th birthday of Mr. Lu Xun, and the English magazine "Chinese Literature" run by the Foreign Languages Publishing House asked the author to write an article in memory of Mr. Lu Xun.
The author talked about Mr. Lu Xun's two popular poems, "Horizontal eyebrows and cold fingers to thousands of people, bow your head and be willing to be a son of a cow", which embodies Mr. Lu Xun's great personality, that is: incomparably hateful to the enemy, never compromise; Infinite love for comrades and dedication.
The author believes that "Heng Mei coldly pointed at a thousand people, bowed his head and was willing to be a son of a cow" are two manifestations of different aspects of Mr. Lu Xun's great personality; The two are dialectically unified, hatred for the enemy and love for comrades must be love, so I thought of talking about both aspects in my commemorative article. At the same time, the author has had some contact with Mr. Lu Xun, and has personally felt Mr. Lu Xun's care and love for young people, and wants to say more from the latter aspect, which has been expressed in the prose "Trivial Memories".

Comrade Tang Tao said: "To show Mr. Lu Xun's great personality of 'pointing at a thousand people with horizontal eyebrows and cold eyes, bowing his head and being willing to be a son of a cow', it is not good to make empty comments. At that time, my idea was to write through a few stories, focusing on a few things that I had contact with Mr. Lu Xun.
This kind of writing is more realistic and vivid, which can allow readers to more deeply understand the spiritual quality of Mr. Lu Xun. I've written two stories. The first part of the story focuses on how Lu Xun 'bowed his head and was willing to be a son of a cow'The second part of the story focuses on how Lu Xun 'crossed his eyebrows and pointed coldly at a thousand people'.
At the beginning, these two lines of the poem are used to summarize the whole text. ”
