After reading Border City , how to understand the ending of Border City .

The way to express feelings is not the same. The way of singing under the moon is full of romantic feelings, simple and natural, tactful and euphemistic. Nowadays, there are very few songs in the city to express love, and this way is very touching.

When I read the original book, I was most moved by this paragraph, singing under the moon. ）

In addition, the people in the mountain town are simple, kind, and upright, which is different from the darkness of human nature under the fierce competition in city life. Cuicui's innocence, grandfather's loyalty and kindness, and Tianbao's bravery and sincerity are all very touching.

The warmth of the people in the border city is not the same as the indifference of the people in the city.

P.S. I really want to go back to the feeling of doing Chinese reading comprehension in middle school.。。。 Haha, it's a little late to write this.

The ending is helpless, it is the last lyric poem written by Shen Congwen for human nature, but even the last stroke is not firm and full of hope.

People may wonder about the divinity of human beings, the yearning for beautiful things. Reality is still reality, and do we have to submit to reality after all? At the beginning, Ruo Cuicui chose the eldest elder, or the second elder according to ordinary people's words.

The ferry is alive, it is better to fix the mill", and if you choose the mill, you will not have "extraneous branches" (the death of the eldest and the departure of the second elder)? Life is divine, but does life conform to reality? Modern man is in a difficult situation.

Shen Congwen wanted to write a lyric poem, but it showed us the predicament of modern times.

"Border City" story synopsis:

Near Chadong at the junction of Sichuan and Hunan provinces, the protagonist Cuicui and her grandfather old boatman went to watch the dragon boat race during the Dragon Boat Festival, and met the handsome young sailor by chance, and the send-off left a deep impression on Cuicui's heart. At the same time, his brother Tianbao also fell in love with Cuicui, and asked the matchmaker to propose marriage in advance.

Instead of dueling according to local customs, the brothers expressed their feelings in a fair and romantic way of singing mountain songs, and let Cuicui choose among them. He is a good singer, Tianbao knows that he can't sing his younger brother, so he is disheartened and resolutely sails away to do business.

Bixi only heard the singing of the night send-off, but later, the song never sounded again. It turned out that the singer was a send-off, and the boss went to business after telling the truth. A few days later, the old boatman heard that the boss had died in an accident on a water boat, and that her grandfather had died soon after.

"Border City" embodies Shen Congwen's aesthetic ideals of "beauty" and "love", and is one of his works that can best express the beauty of human nature. Through the description of the love tragedy of Xiangxi's sons and daughters Cuicui and her lover's send-off, this ** reflects the tragic fact that the people of Xiangxi cannot grasp their own destiny in the face of "nature" and "personnel". This is true of Cuicui, and so is Cuicui's mother, who repeats their sad and bleak lives from generation to generation, but cannot find a way out of this fate.

Through the love tragedy of "Border City", Shen Congwen revealed the mystery of the fate of the characters and praised the pure and good hearts of the border people. Regarding the theme of "Border City", in Shen Congwen's own words, "What I want to express is a 'form of life', a form of life that is 'beautiful, healthy, and natural' but does not contradict human nature." "Border City" takes the love between Cuicui, the granddaughter of the old man, and the two sons of the ship's president, Tianbao and Susheng, as clues, expressing the yearning and pursuit of an idyllic life.

This kind of quiet life is compared with the turbulent society at that time, it is simply a "paradise" out of the rolling dust. The people who live in this paradise are full of primitive, internal, and essential "love". It is precisely because of this "love" that "a few fools and vulgar people" in the small town of Xiangxi on the border of Sichuan and Hunan and the tea mountain on the shore of Youshui are implicated in an ordinary person, and each of them deserves a piece of sorrow and happiness, which once appropriately explained the word 'love' for human beings.

"Border City" expresses the beauty of human nature by expressing the pure love between young men and women, the sincere love between grandparents and grandchildren, and the kindness and mutual love between neighbors. The author wants to dilute the darkness and pain of reality through the love tragedy of Cuicui and Susend, and to eulogize a simple human nature and lifestyle that symbolizes "love" and "beauty". Cuicui and Fu Song, the young people who love each other deeply, have neither vows and alliances, nor deviant shocking acts, nor copper-smelling money and power transactions, but only the natural love between men and women nurtured by the primitive countryside, which is as fresh and healthy as flowers in the sun.

The author not only warmly praised the way the two young people treated "love", but also enthusiastically eulogized the nobility of the behavior and the beauty of the soul of the people of Xiangxi that they embodyed. "Border City" is Shen Congwen's masterpiece, showing readers the harmonious life form of the world in Xiangxi. "Border City" was published in 1934, ** depicts the tortuous love between Tianbao and Cuicui, the two sons of the head of the Chatong Wharf Regiment in the mountain city, and Cuicui, the granddaughter of the ferryman.

Green mountains, green water, the old man by the river, the 16-year-old Cuicui, the heavenly protection on the river's wooden row, and the ...... of the dragon and tiger in the dragon boat

I remember that when we just finished reading it, we only remembered Cuicui's sentence "Grandpa, I want you..."Now that I think about it, I find that it is really a classic literary work, and Shen Congwen's personal characteristics run through it from beginning to end. It depicts the little love of Cuicui in the background of his grandfather's ferry, and uses simple and beautiful brushstrokes to pin the simple happiness he longs for on his grandfather and granddaughter who know each other. It is the most simple and simple, and it is also the most impressive.

1, Cuicui loves to cry, how many times in the text did she write about Cuicui's crying? What is the reason for every cry?

2. Singing is repeatedly mentioned in the text, what role does this play in the development of the plot?

3, Cuicui fell in love with the Susend, but the person who came to propose was not him, and what's worse was that the daughter of the head of the group was also proposing to the Susend. How does the text express Cuicui's troubles?

4. When the old boatman tells the story of Cuicui's mother in the text, he always uses "pitiful" as a modifier for Cuicui's mother, read the full text of "Border City", and try to explain why.

5, in "Border City", the grandfather asked Cuicui which one to choose to "be good with you", why didn't Cuicui?

6. How many people stood on the opposite side of the cliff on the first night? How many people are standing there singing? What is the method used to describe this song?

7, Cuicui knew that the handsome young man she scolded turned out to be the famous "Xiao Yueyun" in Chadong, why was she surprised and shy?

8. The lion dance and fireworks during the Lantern Festival are magnificent, and the people who watch them are afraid and happy. But why does Cuicui always think that it is not as sweet and beautiful as the things that passed through the Dragon Boat Festival?

9. In "Border City", the author uses a lot of pen and ink to describe the scene when the old boatman enters the city to buy the east and filial piety, and the buyer and seller push each other.

10. The old boatman took a sip of wine and said in a low voice: "Good, wonderful, this is rare." What does this mean?

11, Yang Mabing, an acquaintance in the article, said, "How capable a sixteen-year-old girl is, who will get her in the future is really blessed!" But the old boatman said, "What blessing is there?" There is no mill to marry, a light man. What kind of psychology does this sentence show the old boatman?
