Hello everyone, I am writing with famous books, this is my 231st original article.
Students, do you know the origin of the word scrutiny? Legend has it that during the Tang Dynasty, Jia Dao rode a donkey to compose poems, and accidentally got two sentences: "Birds stay in the tree by the pond, monks knock on the door under the night moon", but he hesitated in pushing and knocking these two words, one moment he felt that pushing words was good, and the next moment he felt that he should use knocking words. Just like this, while walking and thinking, he unconsciously collided with Han Yu's honor guard team, who was then Jing Zhaoyin. So he told Han Yu of his doubts, and Han Yu thought about it for a long time, and finally suggested using the word "knock". This incident was written by He Guangyuan of Later Shu in the Jian Jie Ji Jia Zhi Zhi.
Han Yu was known as "Emperor Wenzong of the Hundred Dynasties" by posterity
From Han Yu's point of view, he may feel that the use of the word "knock" is more in line with the reality of the situation, returning late at night, the monks in the temple have long been asleep, in order to enter, they can only knock on the door. However, some people feel that the use of the word "push" also has its own wonderful points: the monks come back late at night, and the door of the monastery is pushed open, showing the monk's open-mindedness and arrogance.
In the works of famous artists, amazing words can be seen from time to time. For example, in his masterpiece "Four Generations Together", Mr. Lao She described the villain fat Kikuko in the book:
She didn't love him, much less his poetry. But on her fat face, draw a few smile lines for him. She had to perfunctory him so that she could get his help and get the "director" into her fat hands.
The reason why Fat Juzi is willing to marry Lan Dongyang. Purely to satisfy their own vanity, I hope to get the position of "director", not from the bottom of my heart to like Lan Dongyang. Draw this verb and use it here for special evocation. You think, in order to please Lan Dongyang, Fat Juzi smiled against his heart. She acts like an actress, painting smile lines on her face with paint.
"Four Generations Together"
In the novella "The Incident on the Third of April" by the writer Yu Hua, there are these words:
He walked into the building as if he were in a dark cave, his feet touching the stairs, and then carefully picking up the stairs.
If the average person writes, the simple action of going up the stairs with his feet is likely to be written as "his feet stepped on the stairs", or "his feet stood on the stairs", or even directly wrote "He walked up the stairs". But Yu Hua was not like this, he used a "touch" word, this word was originally used to describe the movement of the hand, used here can be just shown in the dark environment, reaching out and not seeing the five fingers, little by little tentatively groping upstairs, it can be said that it is very expressive.
Therefore, when writing an essay, if students encounter this kind of situation that can be expressed by different words that are roughly similar in meaning, do not be perfunctory and write one casually. You should know that if you can use an accurate word to represent, not only will the article become more exciting, but also allow you to deepen your understanding of the words in the analysis, which is also of great benefit to personal writing.
