Student C: The story of Li Chuangwang crossing the Yellow River;

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, the court was corrupt and the people were poor. Li Zicheng, the conqueror, led a peasant uprising in Mizhi, Shaanxi Province, crossed the Yellow River and overthrew the Ming Dynasty. It was early winter, and the Yellow River water had not yet frozen, but only when the river was frozen into a solid ice army could it pass smoothly. What shall we do? Chu Zhuangwang worried day and night, and his beard and hair turned white overnight. The next morning, two men came to report: "The Yellow River has been frozen." King Zhuang was overjoyed and quickly ordered the three armies to cross the river quickly. When I got to the river, I saw that the river was still flowing happily and there was no ice at all. However, there is a wide pontoon bridge connected by boat, which is safe and stable, just suitable for the army to cross the river. King Zhuang was puzzled and was about to dismount and inspect. Suddenly, two men climbed up from the river and punched Chu Zhuangwang. A clear voice said, "Your Majesty, we are boatmen of the Yellow River." . I heard that you want to cross the river for the benefit of the people, so you spent the whole night building this pontoon bridge and invited the army to go on the road. Chu Zhuangwang was moved to tears: "I will live up to the people's love and let everyone live a good life!" Say and immediately drove across the bridge, led the troops to the east. This story illustrates the importance of popular support, and those who win popular support win the world.

Student A: Jumping into the Yellow River can't be cleaned.

The original meaning of this sentence is that you have suffered a lot of grievances, even if you jump into a big river like the Yellow River, you can't wash it away.

In fact, no matter who jumps into the Yellow River, you won't want to wash it. At the same time, the sediment particles in the Yellow River are very fine, and sometimes the river even turns into mud, which is really difficult to wash on the body, and it really becomes "jumping into the Yellow River can't be washed clearly".

Looking at the ocean, sigh:

In ancient times, the water of the Yellow River flowed endlessly, irrigating the land on both sides of the strait and gestating Chinese civilization, so the Yellow River was called the God River. One year, the autumn rain caused all the rivers to skyrocket and all the rivers merged into the Yellow River. The Yellow River has become more turbulent and wide, and even the banks and sandbars in the river can't tell the difference between cattle and horses. So the Yellow River God was complacent and thought he was the best in the world. He went down the river until he came to the North Sea. He looks east, but he can't see the edge of the North Sea. So the river god put away his triumphant expression, looked at the sea of Wang Yang and sighed to the North Sea God, "I used to be arrogant and thought that no one could compare with me. Today, I see you are so vast. If I don't come today, I will never know my ignorance. " Beihai Poseidon said: "I am just a small stone in the mountains between heaven and earth, and the whole world is just a grain of rice in the granary." What am I? "

I won't stop until I reach the Yellow River.

Legend has it that in ancient times there was a white-haired madman who ignored his wife's persuasion and insisted on crossing the river and eventually drowned. So someone lamented this incident and wrote a poem: "Gong didn't cross the river, but he really crossed the river and fell into the river and died." What will it do? " In ancient times, the Yellow River was often referred to as the Yellow River for short. The ancients thought that the river here also referred to the Yellow River, so they suggested the meaning of this ancient poem and refined the proverb "If you don't reach the Yellow River, you won't die". Later, some people created relevant folklore to explain the origin of this sentence. Since then, "the heart will not die until it reaches the Yellow River" has been widely circulated with its vivid image.
