“I think writing is about taking something we don’t know and making it knowable.”
"That is, naming is like a bridge. When there is no bridge, people don't know what a bridge is. After there is a bridge, they know the language of the bridge, but they don't know the characters. So in order to let everyone understand,
That’s how the word bridge was invented.”
After Qi finished speaking, people around him began to talk in low voices. Some people said strangely, isn't this the answer similar to the answer given by the first respondent?
There's really nothing new.
After Qi heard these discussions, he felt that this answer was a failure, but he still wanted to try harder, so he said:
"No! What I mean is, taking something you don't know what it is and making it knowable, like eh!"
Qi was a little anxious, but he quickly thought of something and said immediately:
"It's like the wind! The wind is invisible!"
"And then, dreams are also invisible!"
"Ambition is also invisible!"
"Wisdom is also invisible!"
"But now that they have become words, written down, you can see them!"
Qi answered nervously, and no one around him spoke. Everyone seemed to be thinking. Children have very strong receptive abilities. Although Qi's description was not detailed, at least he had an outline.
Uncle Xi nodded: "That's very good."
"This invisible thing is the concept, including benevolence, morality, hope, and the future. These are all the same."
Qi exhaled, and the stone in his heart fell.
But immediately afterwards, Uncle Xi asked everyone: "Words have many meanings. The most important thing is that words carry the cornerstone of our civilization. So what is its relationship with culture?"
"With writing, there is culture!"
At this time, everyone spoke enthusiastically. They learned from childhood and were guided step by step. A large number of words can be composed into sentences. In the sentences, emotions can be placed, or writing about morality, or writing about benevolence and justice, or writing about mathematics and chemistry, or writing
Novels, biographies, or writing songs and histories are all part of culture.
So what does The Last Civilization mean?
The child named "Gong Liu" raised his hand:
"Writing is a grain of rice, culture is an ear of grain, and civilization is a fertile field thousands of miles away! Grains can make people eat well, and the shells of grains can be fed to cattle, sheep, pigs and dogs, so the livestock become stronger, and the land
If there are grains, there will be bugs, so chickens will eat them, and when they are full, they will lay eggs. People will grow grains and raise livestock. A group of people will gather and communicate with each other, and civilization will be born!"
This child's words made other children around him applaud in unison.
It is simple and easy to understand, and everyone will understand it once it is explained.
Qi also clapped hard at this time, his hands were red and his eyes were full of envy. He felt that if the older child could express his opinions completely and accurately, he must be a very smart person.
"Business and trade, together with people from all over the Xia Dynasty, arrived overseas, with far-flung goods reaching the Western Regions, reaching the Po Valley in the east, Wojiao in the south, and Guzhu in the north. This was the spread of culture. When culture spread, civilization was born.
This is how Xia connects each other."
The child who is speaking is from the Shang tribe, and his name is Cao Yu.
Uncle Xi knew it well.
Gong Liu is the great-grandson of Ji Qi (Hou Ji).
Cao Yu is the great-great-grandson of Master Qi.
The descendants of the Zhou tribe have the blood of both Emperor Kuang and Emperor Ku, and use small insights to guide great wisdom.
The descendants of the Shang tribe pay more attention to the exchange and spread of culture.
One after another, many children expressed their opinions.
Finally, Uncle Xi wrote some words on the black board for the children to remember.
"Everything you engage in is part of civilization."
"There are clothes, etiquette, wisdom, benevolence, morality, laws, art, equipment, craftsmanship, songs, and thoughts. The little bits and pieces created by each person, when gathered together, become a great civilization!"
“If you don’t accumulate small steps, you won’t be able to reach a thousand miles; if you don’t accumulate small streams, you won’t be able to reach a river or sea!”
"The advancement of civilization is for the development of survival. From the time when the Five Dragons collapsed the world and the Three Emperors to the present day, countless lives have been born and died, and countless species flicker and extinguish like flickering fireflies. Since ancient times, we have talked about this
We are the only ones with two words.”
"Civilization has been around since the first man made stone tools! From the first man who looked up at the stars, civilization has been born! From the first man to write words, civilization has begun to thrive.
! From the Sui people drilling fire, building nests and building trees, and knowing how to make tools, our civilization comes from our hands. People are the carriers of culture. We create words, and we ourselves are civilization!"
"A word to you, you are the fire that warms the summers, and the light that illuminates the summers. You will burn more fiercely and brightly!"
It's getting late, and it's time for school to end.
Qi stood at the door and walked with his friends. The nervousness of the first day had disappeared. He even felt that no matter what the course was, whether it was a boring course or a teacher who liked to ask questions, it was necessary.
A part of the experience.
Study hard in this link and look forward to the next link.
When I went home, I saw all kinds of expressions and expressions on my friends.
Si Nu always takes the initiative to approach Shang Jun, but Shang Jun seems to really don't want to talk to her. Wu Xuan is acting as a troublemaker. Gong Liu is carrying an abacus and is playing a mathematical game with Cao Yu. It seems that they often
Play like this.
Among the other friends, some stopped by the roadside to catch grasshoppers, some carried bags and went to play in groups who didn’t know where to go, and there were also lonely ones who went home directly, and some even patted their pockets, which were inside
Tao Bei is ringing, going to the market to buy interesting things.
And, the third graders following behind?
Qi glanced at Yan Rong in the distance and felt that this little brother had evil intentions, so he accelerated his departure.
Among the third-year students at the back, there were also rumors that someone among the students who were in the same group as Yan Xu, A Ben, and others said that they wanted to enter the explosion factory and bring explosives to blow up the school. But this person has not yet
He didn't come back to bomb the school.
I heard that after he mentioned his idea of bombing the school, he was rewarded with seven or eight big mouths that night.
In addition to all kinds of gossip, secrets and school legends, there are also shouts of "let me copy your homework".
Kai walked away, gradually parting ways with the others.
In the evening, more people were leaving work, so there were much more people than in the morning. People could be seen everywhere. They were bustling, coming and going without knowing why.
But just a little bit of change created by countless sentient beings has changed the world.
Qi suddenly became happy. He was too young to understand the feeling in his heart at this time. In short, he just saw smiles on everyone's faces, so he was very happy.
Near the market, I bought candied haws, which tasted sweet in my mouth. I reached out and picked off the twigs on the roadside, and waved them like a sword in my hand.
So he spread his legs and ran quickly towards home.
"Hey! Stop!"
When Qi was about to reach home, he was stopped by someone. He turned around and saw Yan Rong's appearance. Regarding this little brother who had been following him, Qi felt that he was the kind of person with evil intentions.
But Yan Rong told Qi that he was Qi's uncle. If anyone wants to bully you in elementary school, tell his name.
Qi blinked and then laughed.
Uncle should be a title for a bearded person. How could it appear on a senior child who is several years older than himself?
So Qi ignored Yan Rong, went straight into the house, slammed the door tightly, and shouted to Yu Zai that there was a bad guy!
