"it is difficult to have a noble son from a poor family"? Is it just like this today?

the real purpose of their education is to convey the self-supporting courage of their ancestors in the face of life hardships and to shape a person who can stand in any life situation.

in the past few years, every June and July, there has been a cry that "it is difficult to get a noble son from a poor family": if you want to be admitted to a good school, you must come from a first-tier city, have an annual salary of one million yuan, and have bilingual education since childhood. As for all kinds of "specialties" such as studying abroad, music, art, and so on, which are thrown out with money, it makes public opinion frown collectively-getting into a good university has become a privilege to fight for a father before a child.

however, what is the purpose of getting into a good university? Is it true that the children who entered Peking University and Tsinghua University jumped the Dragon Gate and became noble sons? In Chinese tradition, there is a mindset: study-take an exam-become a senior civil servant, master power, and prosper. As a result, even if modern higher education is no longer a preparatory class for senior civil servants, admission to a good university is still the only criterion for "success".

the examination is a kind of competition, where there is competition, there will be "unfairness". The gap between the rich and the poor, class privileges, individual possession of unequal resources, there has never been any competition on the same starting line.

is it true that children from the "poor family" have suffered a lot of grievances this year? Not necessarily.

Xiao D, a young man from a well-off family in a fourth-tier city, was praised as smart from an early age, so he came to Beijing with the ambition of being admitted to the Top1 to take the civil service exam. I felt that I did well in the exam. When I published the exam, I found that not only did I fail the exam, but none of the candidates in the same group passed the exam. It turns out that the examiner has come up with a new trick: if none of them is admitted, it means that all the powerful young people are already in the court.

Xiao D was very angry and decided to read it again. I lived in the basement and had a wedding banquet. When I had no money, I had to go to the mountain to dig taro to eat. However, I did it for ten years in a row, but I didn't pass the exam.

he also complains when he is extremely depressed, and he also writes about rich people huddling together to monopolize resources-- "Zhu men stink of wine and meat, and the road is frozen to death." he also wrote about ordinary people who were even more miserable than him-- "parents, wives, and children, all rushed to see each other off, and the dust from chariots and horses covered Xianyang Bridge."

later, he still didn't rise to prosper. However, when he is old, he still has a dream of prosperity, not for himself, but the sake of "thousands of thousands of people in Xiamen" so that he can "shelter the cold people all over the world."

this is du Fu.

in the "college entrance examination" of the Tang Dynasty, it is necessary to choose one of the most beautiful young fresh flesh to wear flowers from the "noble son" who was admitted to Jinshi, the so-called "flower exploration". However, later people simply do not remember how much young fresh meat they have produced in the past 200 years or so, and who they are, but they always remember this failed student du Fu.

Zuo Si, who came from the eighteenth line, is even more miserable than du Fu. He didn't have a "college entrance examination" at that time, and he had to rely on connections to prove himself. Parents come from a good family, eat well, and have a "relationship", it doesn't matter whether they have talent or not. On the other hand, Zuo Si is not only frustrated at home, but also ugly, and the whole is a "loser." But such a loser wrote, "Liangyi Qianggang, Zhuzu thousands of miles"-- it's not my fault. Everyone here, I look down on all of them.

these guys whose families could not spend real money on them and finally failed to become "noble sons" by exams often appear in textbooks and examination papers today. Not so-and-so university graduates as the title, nor any minister manager VP, write their names, it is glittering. Because there is a kind of self-support and ideal in the text they leave behind, which is not linked to the examination results, the narrow boundary between "expensive" and "cold" can not frame their mind.

in the past, college was no different from today, socializing, working, and saving resumes. Or rely on the so-and-so in the court of the teacher to prosper.

but there are differences. The former university was called "Guozi", and people who went in for a while were expected to be "Guzzi". Today's university referred to as "Peking University" and "Tsinghua University" for short, has left out the most important word: "University"-"the way of university, in Ming Mingde, in being close to the people, and in ending in the supreme goodness". This is a question about college life: why on earth did you go to college?

there is a university called Chengjun in South Korea and a university in Japan, which comes from our ancestors' expectations of the goal that "education" can achieve: "Zhou Li" says, "the law of equalization of music and hands to govern the academic politics of the founding of the country, and the children of the country. Those who have the Tao and those who are virtuous teach. " Mencius says that "if you live a long life, you should cultivate yourself as soon as possible, so you will make your life." They also know that your origin, your family, and even your life span are all things you can't decide, but there are also things you can decide. "self-cultivation":

entering college is not for you to pretend to wear a school badge. Is to let you self-improvement, self-achievement, not to be knocked down in the difficulties of life, never lost in the temptation of the world. Become your support and others' stick.

among so many "scholars", not many have prospered through reading, but many have had bad luck. Su Dongpo summed up his life in his later years, "ask your lifelong achievements, Huizhou, Huizhou and Danzhou"-just wandering. But he still has the bearing and mind to laugh at himself. Dongpo was demoted to Huangzhou, fell ill during the cold food festival, and once wrote dejectedly, "Sleeping smell crabapple flowers, mud swallows support snow." It's really powerful to steal it in the middle of the night. He Shu is a sick young man, and his illness is already white at the beginning.

but there is something richer and more determined in his heart than complaining. So, in such an impoverished city of Huangzhou, he also wrote, "Don't listen to the sound of beating leaves through the forest, why not sing and walk slowly." Bamboo staff and awn shoes are better than horses, who is afraid? " Lu you also "sleeps in a lonely village", but what he thinks of is "lying at night listening to the wind and rain, iron horse glacier to dream."

their education, whether as a stepping stone to success or as a ticket to social occasions, is only added value. The real purpose of the education they received was to convey that their ancestors were facing the hardships of life. Self-support dares to shape a person who can stand in any life situation.

and their self-support will always come to us in the education of one generation.

Ye Chia-Ying once said that the Kuomintang had lost to Taiwan and that she had no place to stand in poverty. Holding her newborn and infant daughter, lying on the bed, reading ancient poems, and writing poems, to gain a kind of courage.

she also said that her first job was to teach at Tamkang University. It was recommended by Xu Shiying, who used to live in her house. Because when he was living as a guest, he heard her read the poems of the ancients, and he thought that she had read the minds of the ancients. Until Hsu Shiying's death, Ye Jiaying still remembered this kind of acquaintance who did not need to communicate with each other. She still recalled in the couplet she gave Xu Shiying-"the old residence in the west of the city, and the sound of books moved the guests of the south."

therefore, people can communicate silently with music, and they can also recite poems. The tone of voice is your understanding of your predecessors, and part of his life will live in your understanding and pass on to those who hear it.

"Zhou Li" connects education with music: "the method of equalization of music and palm". What do you teach:

teach Guozi with Le de, Zhongxia, Harmony, only Yong, filial piety, and Friends; teach Guozi with Musical language, Xing, Tao, sarcasm, recitation, speech, and language; teach Guozi with Music and Dance, Dayunmen, Dazun, Daxian, Dayan, Daxia, Dabu, Dawu.

so Ye Jiaying gave a lecture on "reciting" in Douban, entitled "teaching Guozi with happy words"-- the topic, and also talked about the real function of education.

Ye Jiaying has spent more than 70 years of her life teaching poetry, focusing on aesthetics, as well as morality and mind. She said that she had wanted to teach "recitation" since she was young, but as a young female teacher, she was always afraid that her students would not accept the "strange sound" coming from her mouth. However, at the age of more than 90 years old, it is a risk to "make strange noises" on the Internet and accept the choices of young people.

she said that good Chinese poetry always has the power to be moved. And half of the souls are chanting. She said in an earnest tone that she was doing a strange thing, so people couldn't bear to give her a chance to listen to her talk about what the ancients got in education, about what they wanted to pass on to the next generation in education.
