1. Classical Chinese essays describing the Spring Festival, 2 articles Legend has it that many, many years ago, there was a small village at the foot of Dingyang Mountain with beautiful mountains and green waters.
On the hillside at the head of the village, there is a small stone house where a young man named Wannian lives.
He comes from a poor family and makes a living by collecting firewood and digging medicine.
The season was very chaotic at that time, making it impossible for farmers to farm.
Wannian is a scheming young man who wants to set the seasons accurately, but he doesn't know where to start.
One day, Wan Nian went up the mountain to collect firewood and sat under a tree to rest. The movement of the tree shadows inspired him, so he made a sundial to measure the shadow of the sun and calculate the length of the day.
However, the sky was cloudy, foggy and rainy, which affected the measurement.
He just wanted to make another timekeeping device to make up for the shortcomings of the sundial.
That day, he went up the mountain to dig medicine and came to the spring to drink water. The rhythmic ticking of the spring water on the cliff caught his attention.
He looked at the spring water in a trance.
After thinking for a while, I returned home, drew a picture, tried it out, and made a five-layer clepsydra.
From then on, he measured the shadow of the sun and looked for water leaks, working diligently.
Slowly, he discovered that every three hundred and sixty days, the length of the day would repeat itself from the beginning.
The shortest day is on the winter solstice.
The emperor at that time was called Zu Yi.
The disorder made him anxious.
Then he summoned all the officials.
The troubles caused by the irregularity of the imperial meeting and the festival.
The seasonal officer was called A Heng. He didn't know the laws of the sun and the moon, so he said that people were careless and offended the gods.
Only by kneeling down and offering sacrifices sincerely can we obtain God's forgiveness.
Zu Yi took a vegetarian bath.
He led hundreds of officials to the Temple of Heaven to offer sacrifices, and told the whole country to set up a platform to offer sacrifices to Heaven.
However, the sacrifices came and went without any results, and the seasons were still in chaos; people everywhere had to serve and donate in order to build the altar, which was really bile.
Adding to the suffering.
Wannian couldn't bear it anymore.
He brought his sundial and clepsydra to meet the emperor.
Wannian met with the emperor and talked about the winter solstice and the cycles of the sun and the moon.
After hearing this, Zu Yi was overjoyed and immediately ordered a large-scale construction project to build the Sun and Moon Pavilion, the sundial platform and the Leaky Pot Pavilion in front of the Temple of Heaven.
Twelve more boys were assigned to serve him for ten thousand years.
Wan Nian asked six boys to keep the sundial and six boys to keep the clepsydra, record carefully and report on time.
One day, Zu Yi asked A Heng to go to the Riyue Pavilion to ask about the calendar making situation. Wannian pointed to the cursive calendar and said: "The sun rises and sets three hundred and six times, and the cycle starts from the beginning again. The grass and trees wither and flourish are divided into four seasons, and one year has twelve circles."
When Ah Heng heard this, he felt it was right, but felt uneasy in his heart.
He thought to himself: If Wannian had set the festivals accurately, the emperor would be happy and reuse Wannian, who would still listen to me, A Heng?
Ah Heng thought and thought, and wanted to get rid of Wan Nian.
That day, A Heng found out about a sharp customer who was good at shooting, so he sent someone to invite him to his home, held a banquet, explained the reason, and promised to treat him with great courtesy.
The assassin promised to carry out the assassination that night.
After two days of fighting, the assassin took advantage of the drunkenness to leave Aheng and ran towards the Sun and Moon Pavilion.
Unexpectedly, around the Temple of Heaven, there were guards guarding the Sun and Moon Pavilion. The assassin could not get close, so he drew his bow and shot an arrow at Wan Nian, who was watching the stars on the Sun and Moon Pavilion.
Unexpectedly, the assassin drank too much and his eyes were dizzy. The arrow only hit Wan Nian's arm.
Wannian fell to the ground with an ouch, and all the boys cried out to catch the thief.
When the guards heard the cry, they mobilized to catch the assassin and bring him to the emperor.
Zu Yi inquired about the truth, sent an order to put A Heng in prison, and immediately left the palace to visit Wannian in the Sun and Moon Pavilion.
Wan Nian was very moved. He pointed at Shen Xing and said, "Shen Xing has caught up with Silkworm Star, and the stars are restored. At the end of the night, the old year is over and spring has begun again. I hope the emperor will set a festival." Zu Yi said
: "Spring is the beginning of the year, so let's call it the Spring Festival. Aiqing entered the cabinet and could not come out for three years. She worked hard and worked hard to create the lunar calendar based on the full moon. It is really a great achievement. Now Aiqing has been plotted by a traitor. Please follow me.
Go to the palace to take care of yourself." Wannian said: "Although the lunar calendar is crude, it is not very accurate. There is still a little time at the end of the year. If we don't use it at the end of the year, the sun and the moon will pass by quickly.
The calendar will be wrong. I live up to the expectations of all living beings and am deeply favored by the emperor. I wish to break my heart and make careful calculations to determine the correct calendar. 2. Write the origin of the Spring Festival in classical Chinese. In the past, there was a mythical beast named "Nian".
Every year at the end of the year (this is not appropriate), people come out of the giant pool to eat people and animals. They take their wives to hide in the mountains. At that time, an old man comes, and everyone runs and cries to avoid the "year".
So I didn't wait. But the old woman who was the head of the village warned me of the danger and hid in the mountains. The old man twisted his beard and said, "If you stay, I will drive you away."
"The woman shook her head in disbelief and persuaded him. All the three old men laughed and said nothing. In the middle of the night, the "Nian" fruit came. He looked around and saw no one. But there were a few lights at the head of the village. So he was happy and approached quietly.
Two or three steps away, I suddenly felt something strange, and when I looked at it, I realized that there was a big red paper wrapped around the door. It was strange, and then it roared loudly, and the sound shook for two or three miles.
Shivering and shaking, "Nian" became even more frightened when he heard the "pop" and "pop" sounds, and suddenly a red shadow came roaring, "Nian" turned pale in fright and ran away in confusion.
Understand that this is the old man's method of driving away "year".
