    Two Children's Debate Day".

    Spring and Autumn Warring States - Liezi.

    Confucius traveled eastward, saw two children arguing about the day, and asked why.

    A son said: "I go near at the beginning of the sunrise, and I am far away in the middle of the day." ”

    A child is far away at the beginning of the day, and the middle of the day is near.

    A son said: "The beginning of the day is as big as a car cover, and the middle of the day is like a plate, this is not for the far small and the near is big?" ”

    A son said: "The beginning of the day is cool, and the middle of the day is like a soup, this is not hot for the near and cold for the far?" ”

    Confucius couldn't decide.

    The two children smiled and said, "Who knows more about you?" ”

    Vernacular Interpretation: Confucius traveled eastward and saw two children arguing, so he stepped forward and asked them why.

    A little child said".

    I feel that the sun is closer to people when it first rises, and far away from people at noon. ”

    Another child thinks that the sun is farther away from people when it first rises and closer at noon.

    A child said, "Isn't it as big as the lid of a car when the sun first rises, but as small as a plate at noon?" ”

    Another child said, "Isn't it true that when the sun comes out when it is cool, and at noon it is as hot as putting your hand in hot water. ”

    After hearing this, Confucius could not judge which of the two of them was right and which was wrong.

    The two children smiled and said to Confucius, "Who said that you are wiser? ”

    Additional Information: This article is a fable. The article is about two children in ancient times who relied on their own intuition, one thought that the sun was close to people in the morning, and the other thought that the sun was close to people at noon.

    This story is infiltrated with the scientific attitude of actively understanding nature, seeking objective truth, and boldly questioning; It also shows that knowledge is endless, learning is endless, and no matter how knowledgeable people are, they will not know something, and they should seek truth from facts.

    The two children like to explore and have a commendable spirit; The two children have different perspectives on things, and the results are different; Confucius was able to correctly deal with the questions raised by children, and he did not know what he did not know, and sought truth from facts.

    It is understandable that Confucius "cannot decide". It can be seen that the universe is vast, the knowledge is so wide, up and down, even the wise cannot know everything. Confucius did not "insist on knowing what you don't know", but in line with the pragmatic attitude of "knowing is knowing, and not knowing is not knowing".
