7. A word teacher
Refers to a teacher who corrects a very key word in an article.
This language comes from Tao Yue's Supplement to the History of the Five Dynasties in the Song Dynasty.
The Tang Dynasty was a very prosperous period in the development of feudal society in China, and literature and art were also very developed, among which poetry was the most representative. At that time, there were not only many poets but also many poems, and the level of art and content was very high.
Among many poets at that time, there was a poet named Miracle. One winter, in vilen after the heavy snow, he saw plum blossoms proudly blooming, so he wrote a poem "Early Plum" to recite the plum blossoms in full bloom in early winter. There are two lines in this poem: In the former village of Zita Law, several branches opened last night. He felt very satisfied after writing it.
A man named Zheng Gu, after reading this poem written by Miracle, thinks that the meaning of this poem is not exhausted. So, after repeated thinking and deliberation, he changed these two poems into: In the old village of Zita Law, he opened a branch last night. Because he thinks that since there are several plum blossoms, it can't be considered as early plum blossoms.
Zheng Gu's changes, although only changed the number into a word, only changed a word, but it made the theme of Morning Plum more appropriate and the artistic conception of the poem more perfect. Qi was very appreciative of this change in Zheng Gu. At that time, he called Zheng Gu his own lyricist.
Concentrate
Once upon a time, there was a chess player named Qiu. His chess skills are superb.
Qiu has two students studying chess with him. A student is very absorbed in learning from the teacher. The other one didn't. He thinks it's easy to learn chess, so there's no need to be serious. When the teacher explained, although he sat there, his eyes seemed to be looking at the chess pieces, but he was thinking in his heart: "If I kill a swan in the wild now, it will be a delicious meal." Because he is always daydreaming and absent-minded, the teacher doesn't listen at all.
As a result, although both students are famous teachers, one has made rapid progress and become a famous chess player, while the other has not learned any skills.
