Those who are good at making sentences must be good at writing poems. Poetry must be condensed, with meter and rhyme requirements. Even if it is not filled in according to the word list, it must have Du Fu's thoughts, "If the words are not surprising, they will never stop." Wonderful sentences always leave an impression of Maggi. Good memories can be blurted out, spread, and recited. I racked my brains to write a sentence. Under the moon, the monk has been struggling for thousands of years whether to knock on the door or not. One word can lead to the emperor's favor; one word can lead to immediate death. "When you are away from the original grass, the grass blooms every year." This requires meeting a master who loves talent and poetry. A handsome boy from the countryside of the Tang Dynasty could settle down in Chang'an City, a city where housing prices were extremely expensive. With these two sentences alone, he was guaranteed the ticket. "Qingfeng is illiterate, so why bother flipping through books." In that absurd era, in fact, no matter how wonderful the writing was, it was difficult to be appreciated, but it was easier to be beheaded. What do educated people think about when they are not making sentences? On horseback, in the forest, in the court, or on the way to the demoted office... Tengwang Pavilion, Yueyang Tower, Yellow Crane Tower, or Stork Tower. If there were not these buildings with civil structures back then, how many beautiful thoughts would be floating around! The rhythm of poetry happens to be a stable track, which needs to be nourished by thoughts, the rhymes are permeable, and the rhythm is pleasant. Over the past thousands of years, it has outperformed many poets and contestants, and it has not surprisingly revealed the charm of countless cities. Chang'an, Luoyang, Yangzhou, Suzhou, Hangzhou... The language of poetry is refined and the emotions are gorgeous. Poetry is divided into bold and graceful because of the poet's character. Pastoral and frontier fortress, landscape and love are selected because of the poet's feelings. These are not the most important. The most important thing is that everyone who likes to compose sentences is contributing cultural wealth to the Chinese library, allowing their descendants to trace history, remember their ancestors, cherish the feelings of their family and country, and carry forward the past and forge ahead into the future. Speaking of this, I am not grateful for the merits of the person who wrote the beautiful sentences, but for the perseverance and obsession of the predecessors. The ever-lasting cultural heritage requires readers to diligently interpret and create. Even if I write for tens of thousands more years, I will not be willing to abandon the Chinese characters and the sounds of Chinese civilization.

Left yesterday on New Year's Day and we had to stay the next day.

When a woman is pregnant, before there are modern medical technologies such as X-rays and B-ultrasound, we can only observe the condition of the child in the belly from the reaction of the pregnant woman. In the era of lack of technological applications, we cannot first find out whether a child is disabled. Later, through unremitting efforts of mankind, we can do it. This is the gospel given by modern medicine. Even our parents' generation can only see that pregnant women vomit, like to eat acidic foods, are lazy, eat too much... And other conditions to guess the growth of their children. One day, modern medicine will allow us to observe the growth of children from their perspective through technological means. And it can be presented very clearly in images and big data. Writing is similar. Without knowing the truth, the author can only see the appearance at first, and recognize and describe the characteristics of the appearance. When modern science, psychology, sociology, journalism, investigation, etc. Develop, we can observe, analyze, explain, inductively analyze the writing objects through scientific means, etc. The work I want to write here is from the outside to the inside, from near to far, from shallow to deep, from thin to thick. What I present is just like the growth process of a child in the mother's womb. The results of daily observation may be boring, but the child will definitely change rapidly at important points in time. He looks more and more like a person. This is a description of a life. Although this life may be a very ordinary member, as long as they grow up healthily, it will be fine. After all, the fate of a book depends on its genes and its timing. American writer Guy Tellis, a representative figure of New Journalism, said in the preface of his book "The Looked Up and the Forgotten": Pursue broader authenticity rather than simply listing facts, using direct quotations, and adhering to the reporting process. New journalism allows the author to enter the article and look at people and events from the sidelines. His other point of view benefited me very much. He said that people were observed on various occasions and their various reactions were recorded, as well as the reactions of others to them. He said that the way to write a story from the protagonist's perspective is to follow the character comprehensively and try to grasp the entire scene. Including character dialogue, emotions, conflicts, tensions, dramatic scenes, etc. The protagonist's thoughts. It's the hardest if you can catch it. This requires the insight of the author and the cooperation of the protagonist. Guy Tellis had such profound and unique insights into writing as early as the 1960s. What fills me with joy is that he is still alive and still writing. He is 86 years old this year. He has received a lot of praise, and his idea of ​​"introducing literary techniques into documentary writing" has had a huge impact on creators. In my opinion, his creative thinking is actually similar to observing and recording from the perspective of the child in the belly of a pregnant woman. The protagonist is a child. The protagonist's thoughts, of course, depend on the author's insight and the children's cooperation. Children are growing up.
