1. I am looking for translations of anecdotes about famous people in ancient China (in classical Chinese).
Confucius asked Laozi for his courtesy
When Laozi was over 100 years old When the time came, Confucius asked Laozi. I sat there without saying a word, but opened my mouth and stuck out my tongue towards Confucius. Confucius was very puzzled and asked again. I remained silent for a long time, but Confucius continued to listen attentively. I couldn't resist Confucius, so I finally opened my mouth again and showed Confucius his missing teeth.
The conversation between two world-class thinkers ended in a physical conversation of tongue sticking out and mouth opening, but the meaning inside is worth pondering. What Laozi told Confucius is: the tongue is soft and the teeth are strong, but the final result is that the teeth fall out first, but the tongue is still healthy.
Confucius was suitable for Zhou and asked Laozi for courtesy. Lao Tzu said: 'What Tzu said, his body and bones are all rotten, only his words are in his ears. Moreover, a gentleman will drive when he has the right time, but when he doesn't have the right time, he will travel tiredly. I have heard that a good man is as deep as a man, and a gentleman is as virtuous as a fool. Get rid of your son's arrogance and excessive desires, his appearance, and his lustful ambitions, all of which are of no benefit to his body. That's why I tell you if that's the case. ’ Confucius went away and said to his disciples: ‘I know that birds can fly, fishes can swim, animals can walk. Those that walk can be made into nets, those that swim can be made into strings, and those that fly can be made into nets. As for the dragon, I don't know, it rides the wind and clouds to the sky. When I see Lao Tzu today, he looks like a dragon? ’ 2. Celebrity stories translated into classical Chinese
Gao Rou
Gao Rou’s courtesy name is Wenhui, and Chen Liu is also a person. Rou Cong's brother Qian, Yuan Shao's nephew, called Rou in Hebei, and Rou's family followed him. Taizu ① Ping Yuan family, with Rou as the head of the department. His name was well known in the county, and several traitorous officials were lured away by themselves. Roujiao said: "In the past, when Bingji was in power, the officials did something wrong but still tolerated them. Besides, these officials have not done anything wrong to me!" When he is called back, he will be a good official. After Gao Gan surrendered, he immediately rebelled by merging the states. Rou returned to Taizu, and Taizu wanted to punish him because of the crime, thinking that he was an assassin. The punishment was appropriate, and there was no detention in prison. He was made a vassal of the prime minister Cangcao. Advocate ②Song Jin and others fled in Hefei. In the old law, if a soldier dies in the army, his wife will be tested. Taizu's troubles continued, and he paid more attention to his appearance. Jin You's mother, wife and second brother were all given to officials, and the master ordered them to be killed. Rou Qi said: "Soldiers who die in the army are really sick, but there are always regrets when they hear about it. Foolishly said that it is better to lend his wife, firstly, it can make the thieves not believe it, and secondly, it can induce them to return the favor. Just like the previous record, it is solid Having given up all his wishes, he has been punished again. He is afraid that if the soldiers in the army see a person fleeing, he will kill the general and himself, and follow him away. This severe punishment cannot be stopped. Death is the reason why Taizu said: "Good." If you stop killing Jin's mother and brother, there will be many people alive. Emperor Wen ③ practiced the rule of law, used Rou as a ruler to serve as a censor, and granted him the title of Marquis of Guannei. There are many slanderous and evil words among the people, and the emperor is sick of them. There are evil words that are often killed, and those who accuse them are rewarded. Rou Shangshu said: "Nowadays, those who speak evil words will be killed, and those who accuse them will be rewarded. Even if there is no way to reverse the mistakes, and there will be a group of vicious and cunning people who gradually accuse each other, it is really not the reason to stop the crime and save the lawsuit, and to arrest the Xi. When it comes to governing the Tao, I thought it was appropriate to eliminate demons and slander, reward and accuse them, so as to show the benevolence of the Father in raising things. "The emperor did not obey, but false accusations were made. The emperor then issued an edict: "Anyone who dares to accuse each other of slander will be punished by the person he accuses." So he stopped. The emperor had long-standing suspicions and wanted to pervert the law and punish Bao Xun for enforcing the law, but Rou was stubborn and refused to obey the edict. The emperor was very angry, so he summoned Rou to the pedestal⑤ and sent an envoy to the imperial court to inspect the honor. He ordered Rou to return to the temple⑥. Note: ① Taizu: Cao Cao. ②Advocate: Advocate in the army. ③ Emperor Wen: Cao Pi. ④Government and law enforcement: official position. ⑤Tai: Shangshu Tai. ⑥Temple: Tingwei official office. 3. Translation of classical Chinese
This article is a fable.
The article describes that in ancient times, two children relied on their own intuition. One believed that the sun was close to people in the morning, and the other believed that the sun was close to people at noon. For this reason, they each held their own sides and argued. Even a learned man like Confucius could not make a judgment. This story illustrates that in order to understand nature and explore objective truth, one must dare to think independently and question boldly; it also illustrates that the universe is infinite and knowledge is infinite, and even the most knowledgeable people will not know something, and learning is endless.
The story can be understood in three parts.
First, it writes about Confucius' encounter with two children arguing on the road, and points out the time, place, characters and causes of the story.
The two children presented two completely different views on the issue of how far the sun is from the earth at different times. Then write about two children using the intuition (visual, tactile) that people can experience in daily life to clarify their opinions to refute the other party's opinions.
Finally, it is written that Confucius faced the argument between the two children and was unable to make a decision, which caused the two children to "laugh". The full text is only about a hundred words, but it can give people many enlightenments.
Expressing characters and unfolding storylines through dialogue descriptions are the characteristics of its language expression, which expresses the innocence and loveliness of the two children and Confucius's modest, prudent and practical scientific attitude. The main purpose of selecting this article is to enable students to initially understand the linguistic characteristics of ancient Chinese prose, and at the same time realize that knowledge is endless and learning is endless.
The different meanings of characters and words in ancient and modern times are the difficulty in learning this article. For example, "I go when the sun starts to rise and people are close", "go" means "distance", which is different from the common modern meaning.
In addition, "尰", "汝", etc. rarely appear in modern Chinese, and such words must be understood by students. The translation below is for reference only.
Confucius went to the East for a study tour. On the way, he saw two children arguing. Confucius asked them the reason for their dispute.
A child said: "I think the sun is close to people when it first rises, and is far away from people at noon." Another child thought that the sun is far away from people when it first rises, and is close to people at noon.
The previous child said: "When the sun first rises, it is as big as the hood of a car, and when it reaches noon, it is like a pan. Isn't this how small it is in the distance and how big it is up close?" A child said: "It's cool when the sun first rises, but when it's noon it's as hot as putting your hand into hot water. Isn't it hot when it's close and cool when it's far away?" Confucius listened and couldn't tell who it was. Who is wrong. The two children smiled and said: "Who said you know many things?" 2. Learning objectives 1. Learn the three new words in this lesson and be able to clarify the meaning of the text according to the comments after class.
2. Read the text emotionally. Memorize the text and retell the story.
3. Understand the content of the text and learn from the spirit of the ancients who were good at using their brains and boldly questioning in order to understand nature and explore the truth, as well as the spirit of Confucius? Che Mulan fights? 3. Teaching Suggestions 1. Before class, teachers can review the scientific knowledge involved in the text. You can also arrange students to collect information on their own before class on questions such as "Does the distance between the sun and the earth change throughout the day? Why does the sun look bigger in the morning and smaller at noon? Why does it feel cooler in the morning and hotter at noon?"
2. Although this article is concise, the different meanings of ancient and modern words are still a difficulty for students to read and understand. For example, the modal particle "hu", which rarely appears in modern literature, appears three times in the article. It is recommended to solve this difficulty in three steps.
(1) After students read the text, they can initially understand the meaning of each sentence based on the annotations. For students who do not understand, the teacher can give some guidance so that students can understand the context.
(2) Read it repeatedly to understand the content of the story. (3) Tell this story in your own words.
3. This story contains profound truth. Teachers can organize students to discuss and share what they thought of after reading this text.
Students should be encouraged to speak freely and gain insights from multiple perspectives. For example, the two children like to explore, and their spirit is commendable; the two children understand things from different angles, and the results are different; Confucius can correctly treat the questions raised by the children, not knowing what is not known, and seeking truth from facts.
As for the end of the article, Confucius "cannot solve it", students should know that many natural phenomena are common scientific knowledge to us, but in ancient times it was difficult to solve them due to underdeveloped science and technology. It is a mystery, so it is understandable that Confucius "cannot solve it". It can be seen that the universe is huge and the knowledge is vast, ranging up and down, but even a wise man cannot know everything.
Confucius did not "forcibly pretend that he knows what he doesn't know", but had a pragmatic attitude of "knowing what he knows, and what he doesn't know is what he doesn't know".
Therefore, when teaching, do not take the joke about Confucius as the main theme.
4. For beginners to learn classical Chinese, repeated reading is the most important method. When studying this article, you should still focus on guided reading.
When reading this article aloud, you can follow the following tips to read the pauses in the sentences. Confucius was traveling eastward and saw two children arguing with each other and asked them why.
One son said: "I think / when the sun begins to rise / people are close to you, but / when the sun is midday / it is far away." .
One son said: "When the sun rises, it is as big as a car hood, and at midday, it is like a pan. Isn't this why the one far away is small and the one close is big?" One son said: " The sun is cool in Cangcang at the beginning of the day, and it is like exploring the soup in the middle of the day. Isn't it hot when you are near and cool when you are far away? "Confucius couldn't decide. The two children smiled and said, "Who/for you/know more?" The description of the language and dialogue of the two children is the focus of the teacher's guidance of students in reading aloud.
In the second natural paragraph, two children have completely different views on the distance between the sun and the earth at different times. Students should be guided to read out the words of the two children who hold their own opinions and refuse to give in to each other in a positive tone. manner. In the third and fourth paragraphs, the two children put forward reasons to prove their own opinions and refute each other's opinions based on their own feelings and experiences.
The two paragraphs have the same sentence pattern and structure, and both end with a rhetorical question. Pay attention to the reading of rhetorical questions. Among them, "as big as a car hood" and "like exploring soup" should be read with emphasis, while "as big as a plate bowl" and "cangcang cool" should be read lightly, so that they read with a contrasting tone. This will form a confrontation between the two peaks and make it impossible to argue. *** that needs to be solved urgently.
In the fifth natural paragraph, when the two children saw that the sage Confucius could not make a decision, they laughed and said: "Who knows more about you?" It also uses a rhetorical question. It should be made clear that the laughter of the two children is not sarcastic. Students should be guided to read in a lively and relaxed tone to express the innocence and cuteness of children. When guiding students to read classical Chinese texts, they should pay attention to standard reading and comprehension.
On the basis that students understand the content of the article and can read the full text emotionally, students are then guided to read aloud by role, striving to achieve recitation in class. 5. After-school extension.
It is recommended to arrange a language practice activity and perform "New." 4. Translation of Classical Chinese
Learn from the ancients who, in order to understand nature, stayed close to people at noon.
Finally, it writes about the argument Confucius faced with his two children. Secondly, the white object appears larger than the black object. This physical phenomenon is called "light penetration".
When the sun first rises, the background is a dark sky, and the sun is extremely bright; at noon, the background is a blue sky, and the sun has little contrast with its brightness, so it appears smaller. The temperature at noon is higher than in the morning. Is the sun closer to us at this time than in the morning? Neither.
The main reason is that the sun shines obliquely on the earth in the morning and the sun shines directly on the earth at noon. At the same time and in the same area, direct radiation generates more heat than oblique radiation.
At the same time, at night, the heat from the sun irradiates the ground and dissipates, so it feels cool in the morning; at noon, the heat from the sun irradiates the ground, so it feels hot. The coolness or hotness of the temperature cannot explain the distance or proximity of the sun to the ground. Translation: Yi Qiu is the best chess player.
He was asked to teach two people to play chess. One of them concentrated on listening to Yi Qiu's teachings; while the other person was listening, but in his heart he always thought that a swan was about to fly over and wanted to take the bow and arrow. Go shoot it. In this way, although he studied with the previous person, he did not learn as well as the previous person.

"Study of Chess" is selected from "Mencius Gaozi". Mencius (372 BC - 289 BC) was named Ke and given the courtesy name Ziyu.
A native of Zou State (now Zou County, Shandong Province) during the Warring States Period. Ancient Chinese thinker and educator.
He is a Confucian master after Confucius and is honored as "The Lesser Sage". Later generations will collectively call him "Confucius and Mencius" together with Confucius.
"Mencius" was co-authored by Mencius and his disciples. The content includes Mencius' political activities, political theories, philosophical thoughts and personality cultivation.
The whole book is divided into seven chapters: "King Hui of Liang", "Gongsun Chou", "Teng Wengong", "Li Lou", "Wan Zhang", "Gao Zi" and "Jin Xin". There are four sentences in this ancient text, which have three meanings.
The first sentence has a meaning, pointing out that Yi Qiu is the best person in the country at playing chess. This sentence pave the way for the next chapter, because "a great teacher makes a great disciple."
The students he taught were supposed to be masters. On the second level (the second and third sentences), a disharmonious phenomenon appeared: among the two students Yi Qiu taught, one of them was attentive and fully remembered what Yi Qiu taught; But I was thinking that maybe a swan was coming, and I was thinking about picking up a bow and an arrow with a silk rope to shoot it down.
As a result, although they studied together, the latter one is far inferior to the former one. The third level (the last two sentences) is self-questioning and answering: Is the latter one not as smart as the former one? I can say: not at all.
Contacting the second level, we can see that the latter one is lagging behind only because he is unwilling to concentrate on studying! There are only four sentences, but it clearly explains the truth that you will not be able to learn skills if you don't concentrate on it. The simplicity and refinement of classical Chinese can be seen from this. ——I feel after reading "Xue Yi" I have studied many texts. From these texts, I got to know the Mongolian hunter Hailibu who sacrificed himself to save others, the resourceful Zhuge Liang, and the simple and honest young man Runtu. But I My favorite is the story told in the lesson "Learning Chess".
This article mainly talks about Yi Qiu, the best chess player in the country, teaching two people to play chess at the same time. But their learning attitudes are different: one person is "concentrated" and "only listens to Yi Qiu".
But the other person "thought that a swan was coming, and wanted to help him with his bow and shoot it." Although I was studying with my peers, I was distracted.
When learning chess at the same time, people who are half-hearted will never learn as well as those who are focused. This short story gave me so much inspiration! In fact, I used to be a person who didn't concentrate on anything. I was often thinking about another thing while doing one thing.
Sometimes, I feel like I have burrs in my heart, and I can’t learn down to earth. I have learned many lessons in life. I remember one Saturday afternoon, I woke up and quickly wrote the composition assigned by the teacher.
But while writing, he looked at the small alarm clock on the table. As soon as he saw 3:10, he put down the pen in his hand, reached for the radio, and quickly dialed traffic Channel, the pleasant voice of the announcer's aunt suddenly came out: "Now please listen to Jolin Tsai's "The Lost Castle"..." Oh, it's great! How could I miss such a good opportunity? I threw the composition aside, picked up the radio and started listening. Listen to her beautiful voice: "Memories fly away... I want to be alone and think... It's really good... I don't need it anymore, the disappearing castle..." I was intoxicated and learned to sing.
Suddenly my mother opened the door and came in. Seeing me singing so enchantedly, she said: "While doing homework, I listen to music again. Can I do my homework well?" I stuck out my tongue and said to my mother. With a grimace, he grabbed the pen and started writing the composition in a hurry. But in my heart, I felt that my mother came at the wrong time.
The next day, the teacher pointed to the composition text and said: "You read the composition, and you don't even understand the sentences!" When I looked at it, I felt like I had heard the words in the composition somewhere. How come the "memory has flown away" in the song is even written in the composition? Hey, it’s all because of my lack of practicality in studying! This is so like the person in "Xueqi" who half-heartedly learns to play chess! While he was learning to play chess, he wanted to shoot down the swan; while I was writing essays, I wanted to listen to songs. How could I learn skills without concentration and perseverance? The famous painter Leonardo da Vinci once said: "Tenacious perseverance can overcome any obstacle."
How well this sentence says! Is the person who studies chess half-heartedly not as smart as others? No, it's because he doesn't have tenacious perseverance and the spirit of hard study. What I experienced illustrates this truth. 5. lt; gt; Classical Chinese translation

Zhang Gai, the captain of Chacha County, came at this time and said in surprise: "Why would such a high-status person do such a thing?" Gao Niandong smiled and left.
A high official sent a servant to visit Gao Niandong. Gao Niandong was bathing in the river with a group of children. The servant also went down to wash, asked Gao Niandong to help him rub his back, and asked where Gao Shilang's home was. The child smiled and pointed at Gao Niandong and said, "This is it." The officer was so frightened that he knelt down in the water to apologize, and Gao Niandong also answered him in the water. 7. 7 Classical Chinese Translations

He is still able to hold on to the heights.
He falls to the ground and dies. Those who are addicted to acquisition in this world will not avoid it in order to enrich their homes.

"Sima Guang Loves Learning" Original text When Sima Wen Gong was young, he was not as good as others in asking questions. He lived in groups and gave lectures. All the brothers had finished reciting and stopped wandering around. He was alone in making up the whole collection, and he stopped reciting twice as many times as he could.
Those who exert more force will achieve farther, and those who recite it carefully will never forget it throughout their lives. Duke Wen once said: "You can't fail to recite the book. You can gain a lot by chanting the text and thinking about its meaning while riding a horse or staying awake at night.
" When Sima Guang was a child, he was worried about memorizing the text. Poems and books are not as good as others in their ability to prepare responses. Everyone studied and discussed together. The other brothers had already learned how to recite and went to play and rest. (Sima Guangque) studied hard alone, as focused and hard as Dong Zhongshu and Confucius when they were studying, until they could recite skillfully. (Because) The more effort you put into reading now, the more lasting the rewards will be. The books he has read and recited intensively will be remembered throughout his life.

When riding a horse or walking, or when you can't sleep in the middle of the night, you can recite the article you have read and think about its meaning, and you will gain a lot!

Later, he was reinstated as an official and hid in Yangcheng Mountain. At that time, there was a murderer, and Yang officials in the same county raised suspicions, so the county arrested him and found out that there was no evidence of plunder.
As a postal supervisor, he entrusted secret orders and summoned Yang officials. Those who heard it from far and near were impressed by it.
The chief of Taiqiu was removed again. Cultivate virtue and be quiet, and the people will be at peace.
When the households in neighboring counties surrendered, they would give instructions and explanations, and send various orders to return to the official department of the department. Officials are concerned about lawsuits and want to forbid them.
Shi said: "If we seek justice in litigation, how can we apply the prohibition? It should not be restricted." Hearing this, the chief officer sighed and said, "If what Chen Jun said is true, how can you blame others?" ?" There was no lawsuit.
Later, the party members were arrested, and things continued to go wrong. Many of the others fled and asked for immunity, and Shi said: "If I don't go to prison, everyone will have nothing to rely on."
So he asked for imprisonment. It can be obtained by pardon.
At the beginning of Emperor Ling's reign, General Dou Wupi regarded him as a vassal. From time to time, he often serves Zhang and gives power to the world.
It would be a shame to let my father die and be buried in Yingchuan. Later, he punished the party members again, which made him feel guilty, so he was forgiven by many people.
I am in the countryside, and I am calm about things. When there are disputes and lawsuits, he always seeks justice, knows the right and wrong, and retreats without any complaints.
He even sighed and said: "It is better to be punished than to be punished by Chen Jun." At that time, the people were frugal, and a thief broke into his house at night and stopped at Liang.
