What does it mean for each of the two children to argue about the day?

Hello!!! Xueyi.

Yi Qiu (name not translated), (is) a person who is good at playing chess in the country. Let Yi Qiu teach two people to play chess, one of them concentrates wholeheartedly and only listens to what Yi Qiu says; The other man, while listening to the lecture, thought that a swan was about to fly, and thought of drawing a bow and an arrow to shoot it. Although he studied with the previous one, he did not learn as well as the previous one.

Is it because his intelligence is inferior to the previous one? Say: Not so.

Two children distinguish the day.

Confucius went on a study tour in the East, and on the way he saw two children arguing, and (Confucius) asked them the reason for their argument.

One child said, "I think it's close to people when the sun first comes out, but it's far away at noon." ”

Another child thinks that the sun is far away at the beginning of the day and close at noon.

"When the sun first comes out, it is as big as the canopy on a car, and at noon, it is like a pan, isn't it a smile in the distance and a big one in the near?" ”

Another child said, "The sun is cool and cool when it comes out, and when it is noon, it is as hot as putting your hand into hot water. ”

When Confucius listened, he couldn't judge who was a friend and who was wrong.

The two children laughed and said, "Who said you were knowledgeable?" ”
