What are some classical Chinese essays that you think should not be missed?

I don't know if you have noticed that when most people become adults, the only thing they can remember about the impressions of ancient poems and ancient Chinese is the content they memorized in primary and secondary school. In fact, many classic ancient poems, classical Chinese and prose were studied in textbooks when we were children. Here is an excerpt to share one of my favorites.

In December of the fifth year of Chongzhen, he lived in West Lake. After three days of heavy snowfall, the lake was full of people and birds. The day is more fixed, Yu carries a small boat, embraces the clothes and stove, and goes to the lake pavilion alone to see the snow.

The rime is thick, the sky and the clouds and the mountains and the water, up and down are white. The shadow on the lake, only a trace of the long causeway, a little pavilion in the center of the lake, and a mustard with the rest of the boat, and only two or three people in the boat.

On the pavilion, there are two people sitting opposite each other on the carpet, a boy shochu, and the stove is boiling. Seeing Yu Daxi, he said: "There is more such a person in the lake!"

Pull the rest and drink together. Yu Qiang drank three white and parted. Ask his surname, he is from Jinling, and he is here.

and got off the boat, Zhouzi muttered: "Don't say that you are stupid, there are even more people who are stupid!" ”

1."Watching the Snow in the Lake Pavilion" is the representative work of the writer Zhang Dai in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, selected from the third volume of "Dream Memories of Tao'an".

2.The article recounts the author's own experience of watching the snow in the lake pavilion with refined pen and ink, depicts the quiet, far-reaching, white and vast snow scene he sees, and expresses the author's lonely and lonely state of mind and faint melancholy.

3.It highlights the author's independent and outstanding elegance. It expresses the author's joy when he meets his confidant and the regret of separation, reflects the author's thoughts of his homeland, and also reflects the author's quality of not going with the world, not following the crowd, and the feelings of staying away from the world and being lonely and self-appreciative, and at the same time expressing the sigh of the slimness of life.

The words are concise and to the point, and the artistic conception is far-reaching. This is where ancient texts are difficult to understand, and this is also the charm of ancient texts.

Li Bai's "Preface to the Spring Night Banquet Peach and Plum Garden".

Those who husband heaven and earth are also the rebels of all things; Those who have passed through time are also passers-by for hundreds of generations. And floating like a dream, for joy? The ancients traveled at night with candles, and there was a good thing.

The situation of Yangchun called me to smoke the scene, and the large piece of fake me to the article. The peach blossom garden, the joy of the family. The group of seasons is handsome, all of them are Huilian; I sing songs, and I am ashamed of recreation.

The reward is not over, and the talk is clear. Open a feast to sit on the flowers, fly the feathers and get drunk with the moon. If there is no good song, how can he shine Yahuai?

If the poem is not successful, the penalty will be based on the number of wine in the Golden Valley.

Everything in the world is the passage from ancient times to modern times, the difference in death, as the difference in dreams, and the transformation of awakening, by joy, the unexplained or to find out the cause, and how much! It is the truth and persistent performance of the night candle of the ancients, spring with beautiful natural scenery to call me, my beautiful image, together in the garden of peach blossoms, cheerfully among the brothers happily reminisced. My brother is handsome and outstanding, Xie Huilian has all the talents, I am ashamed to recite poems, Xie Lingyun.

Enjoy the spirit of elegance is elegant, fluent and elegant language eloquence. I sit at the table admiring the flowers, and quickly send a glass of wine to get drunk in the moonlight, how can I express the feeling of elegance if it is not good? If there is no poem, according to the precedent of Shi Chongjinguyuan's banquet poem this year, three buckets of wine will be punished.

This article is mainly about Li Du and his younger brother to say that everyone sings and drinks together in the scene, he shows the happiness of a family's alliance and brotherhood, although this article is not long, but it can be a conscious status quo, with endless aftertaste, it is really rare to have such a deep brotherhood, but I often see news reports: Brother gap wall, such as some family tragedies before friends become enemies of each other, alas! Can this not be felt?

In contrast, what kind of kinship do we have?

Brother is a "brother", why is it called "brother"? Because hands and feet are inseparable, as long as there is no cooperation, it can't be done, as long as the brothers can break into gold with their concerted efforts, the chopsticks will be broken, but it is not easy to break ten chopsticks! So we should cherish our friends, expand family affection, love, and make society progress, is this a country without strong reasons?

SummaryThis article uses a fresh style, a casual style, the author's narrative and the gentleman's hall of the Peach Blossom Garden to form a happy family, and warmly expresses Li Du's love life, love life, life pursuit and positive and optimistic attitude towards life.

Classical Chinese is a written language in China, which mainly consists of a written language based on the spoken language of the pre-Qin period. It is commonly known as "the answer to the calendar". Mr. Wang Li, a well-known linguist and educator, pointed out in "Ancient Chinese":

Wenyan refers to the written language of ancient Chinese, which was formed on the basis of the spoken language of the pre-Qin period, and the language in the antique works of later writers." Classical Chinese, that is, articles written in classical Chinese, that is, works of ancient classical Chinese and works that imitated it throughout the ages. Before 1919, all articles in China were written in classical Chinese.

Nowadays, we generally refer to "ancient texts" as "classical Chinese".

Prose is a literary genre called along with poetry, **, and drama, and refers to prose articles that do not pay attention to rhyme, including essays, essays, travelogues, etc. It is the most free style of writing, does not pay attention to rhyme, does not pay attention to proportion, does not have any constraints and restrictions, and is also the earliest style of writing in China. Usually a piece of prose has one or more central ideas, expressed lyrically, narratively, reasoning, etc.

There is no comparison between the two, and prose can also be expressed in the form of classical Chinese, which can also be a genre of prose.

The difference between prose and classical Chinese is still relatively large. Classical Chinese is written in the style of archaic, while prose is written in vernacular. The writing style of classical Chinese, in addition to the use of words and speaking tone as much as possible in the ancient text, the expression should also be euphemistic, and the writing techniques used are more, such as metaphors, anthropomorphism, exaggerated symbols, etc., can not be verbose, often a few sentences are said in one sentence, and the artistic conception is very important.

The words of prose, in a word, are scattered. That is to say, when you read the prose, you may find that he writes a little messy, this kind of mess means that it may not say a thing from beginning to end, it may say several things in a row, or the author seems to write whatever he thinks, the structure is not rigorous, but its central idea is not messy, you can clearly see that the article seems to be messy, but in fact it is not messy. For example, such as Zhu Ziqing's "Back", he writes about father's love, but he starts from the details, you will find that his narrative is very trivial and scattered, and it is not from beginning to end, there are memories or something in the middle, but his central idea is not messy, and so many details in front of him are all paving the way for father's love.

1. Differences in sentence structure:

Articles that are mainly based on dual sentences (骈句) are called punes.

An essay that is dominated by non-dual sentences (prose) is called prose.

The prose is vigorous, and everything is said and cited. Prose is derived from masculine beauty, that is, the so-called magnificent in this world; The opinion of the writer is that the beauty of the article itself is the value of the article, so his attitude is indifferent and detached, and he uses the article as a tool to express the soul.

The main rhyme of the text is graceful, and it is graceful and swaying. The text is derived from the beauty of femininity, that is, the so-called beautiful person in this world. The essayist believes that the article is so enlightened, so his attitude is serious and serious, and he uses the article as a tool for the world.

In fact, whether it is vernacular prose or ancient prose, the important thing is to have the ideas you want to express, but the ancient prose is more exquisite, that is, the language is beautiful, charming, and catchy to read, but it is not like Fu who blindly pursues the gorgeousness of rhetoric and neatness. Most of the ancient prose is a combination of loose prose, which at first glance looks like an ancient fu, but in fact, it is not, because it is easier for people to understand than the ancient fu, and the integration of personal feelings is very important.

The following is an ancient prose I have written, "The Story of the Yellow Crane Tower", which was included in the "Dang** Composition" founded by the Chinese Prose Literature Association, and I was also fortunate to apply for ** in the Chinese Prose Literature Association and the Chinese Poetry Society not long ago. In the middle of summer, choose a clear day and visit the Yellow Crane Tower.

Returning in a hurry, he should be forced by Sister Aimeng, close his eyes and think. After a while, he picked up the pen and painted this clumsy work to remember it.

The Han water is tired, thrown into the Yangtze River, infiltrating and blending branches, surging and rushing, without the suspicion of turbidity, inheriting the Bohuai of Huaxia compatibility. The three towns are cut and envied, the mountains and rivers reflect each other, the grass and trees are verdant, and the boats are scaly.

Near but stopped, looking up, the eaves are like cranes that want to fly, perching on the top of the snake mountain. Fertile water cleanses its beauty, and the sun and the moon increase its spirituality.

Thousands of years have been ruined, although its system has changed, and the majesty is not inferior to the past. Placed in it, like a fairy fantasy tour, the mural couplet, elegant and extraordinary, the ancient rhyme is overflowing, and the time of doubt is reversed.

Step lightly on the wooden steps, gather your breath and go up, hang the ancient sages, and mourn the dead. Zi'an left the crane on the wall, reporting the grace of drinking wine; Taibai moved left through here, sighing at the ups and downs of the career; Cui Hao's poem titled Huang He goes, who can compete with him? The rioters are endless, the river is inexhaustible, and the literati worship this place, like heroes worshipping the Great Wall.

Gorgeous costumes, and the whisper of the breeze shaking the leaves; Hongru coughed and vomited, chasing the river to push the waves. Without the elegance of Zhang, it was obtained from Zhong Lingchengyuxiu.

Climb high to the top, the female can be touched, the building is steep, and the eyes are leaning on the railing. The sound of the waves splashes, summoning the soul of the ancients; Chutian is vast, and the present is small.

On the other side of the clear river, when I arrived at the sky, I didn't see the smoke curling, but I heard the cicadas noisy. When does the water to the east stop? What is the peace of the mountain of Wopan? Blood and tears poured into the river to continue its source, and the bones were buried in the rocks.

In the spring and autumn of a lifetime for decades, how can it not be in a race with the country? Alack! Take the yellow crane to disappear into the twilight, ancient and modern are this destination.

In ancient times, there were nine explanations:
