A paper on moths?

Moths, LEPIDOPTERA insects of Insecta, mostly move at night and like to gather in bright places, so there is a saying in folk proverbs that "moths put out a fire and set themselves on fire". The following is what I brought to you for your appreciation.

: the artistic conception of moths

Montaigne, a French educational thinker, once warned us: "The joy of life depends on our concern for life." Therefore, in order to get the greatest pleasure in life, we need to pay close attention to every object around us; Carefully analyze what happened.

One day after dinner, I took my granddaughter and grandson for a walk in the square. Walking under a neon light, I suddenly vaguely heard a "poop-poop" sound overhead, and saw some snowflakes falling from time to time under the neon light.

"Grandma, look, why are there so many moths around this lamp?" My granddaughter asked me, pointing to the neon lights overhead. When I heard my granddaughter's words, I quickly looked up at the light. Indeed, there are many moths, large and small, flying around the lamp in droves, shielding the original glittering and translucent neon lights to only a faint light. It's rare to see such a spectacular scene at ordinary times, so I said smoothly, "It's estimated that it's going to rain, and moths are gathered under this lamp." I saw those moths desperately bumping into bright light bulbs, flapping and flapping, and some were even hit "head-broken". One fell on the tile floor under the neon lights like snowflakes, and some were still rushing forward desperately. It seems that moths are desperate for their own lives to hold the lamp.

"Now I finally understand what is called' moth to the fire'." The little grandson looked at the tenacious spirit of the white moths and said with emotion.

"Although they are small insects, they are quite persistent. They don't seem to give up until they jump on the lamp. Who knows, jumping up is a dead end. " Granddaughter, those moths are fearless. She seemed to forget that she was out for a walk. She was so absorbed in the light that she couldn't bear to move.

"Stupid moths know that this is a fire, but they must jump up. They really have a spirit of not being afraid of death! " The joke that my little grandson talks to himself makes me happy.

"This is called' unreasonable trouble'!" Granddaughter's words made me laugh again.

I was elated to see Sun Bao's great interest in A Moth to the Fire. By the way, I told them that the idiom "moth to the fire" has two meanings in the use of literature. One is to satirize things that are blind, unrealistic, and even lose themselves for some unreasonable goals, and finally pay a heavy price. We can say "moths to the fire". "

"Like what?" As soon as I stopped talking, I heard my granddaughter anxiously asking me to give an example.

Granddaughter usually takes everything seriously. When she hears anything, she always asks questions unambiguously. If you don't tell her why, she will never trust you easily. First of all, I just talk nonsense when I am interested. I never thought I would prepare an example. My little granddaughter said to me, "What do you like?" I was really stumped when I asked, and I was speechless for a moment. I hung my head and thought for a long time. "Well, this ..." I stammered for a long time and didn't come up with a convincing example.

"Oh, grandma, I came up with an example. It can be described as' moths to the fire'. " Sun Tzu's words immediately relieved me, and my embarrassing psychological feeling was relaxed.

"You little fool, your grandmother hasn't figured it out yet. Tell me if you blame me. " Granddaughters always pose as big sisters in front of their little grandchildren, and always look dismissive of what their three-year-old brother says.

"In Pleasant Goat and Big Big Big Wolf, Big Big Wolf tried his best to catch sheep and eat them, but his tricks were seen through by clever sheep and goats every time, which made him depressed and sometimes almost killed himself. Big Wolf knows that sheep are very powerful, so he has to try to catch them many times. Isn't this the best example of' moths to the fire'? " The little grandson learned the meaning of "a moth to the fire" from his favorite TV series Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf.

"Yes! Amber is so right! " I praised my little grandson.

"Oh, you little fool learned to know how to connect and use. Really good! " After listening to the little grandson, the granddaughter seems to believe her brother a little.

With Sun Bao's participation, I don't have to dig deep into the questions my granddaughter asked me. I thought: Why not just encourage Sun Bao to think more, think more about problems and listen to their opinions? Isn't it more interesting and more conducive to children to consolidate their knowledge? So I said to Sun Bao, "Think about it again. From what you have seen and heard at ordinary times, what do you think is a moth? " The purpose of raising this question is also to test Sun Bao's ability to observe and analyze things at ordinary times.

"Grandma, what the thief caught in our unit did was not a moth to a flame? He knew that cameras were installed everywhere in our unit, but he also tried to steal things. As a result, my uncles caught me at first. Didn't the thief jump into the fire pit himself? " Thinking of the thief who was sent to the police station by us, I was deeply impressed by Sun Tzu's careful analysis of things.

"Well, that thief is a moth to the fire and asked for it. Amber analyzed it correctly! " I smiled and praised.

"Oh, grandma, I remember that our teacher once mentioned that Japanese devils harassed our border and wanted to occupy our * * *. Our country is so powerful, their country is so weak, and they want to seize our country's territory. Isn't this an obvious "moth to the fire"? In the end, they will only bring their own destruction! " The granddaughter is as excited and articulate as a speech on the stage.

"Yes! My Qiaobao finally found a very convincing example. The Japanese want to occupy the * * * of our country, and it is best to describe it as' moth to the fire, self-destruction'! " My granddaughter's reminder seems to have aroused my topic. So, I took the opportunity to spread some positive energy to them and inspire their self-confidence: "Sun Bao, by watching TV and movies, we can understand that in the past, when our country was poor, Uncle * * * could use' millet plus rifle' to beat the Japanese devils out. In the face of China's advanced science and technology and the country's prosperity today, if they dare to invade our territory again, it is obviously a moth to the fire.

"yes! They are fighting with their arms! " Little grandson, do as I say.

"They overreach themselves!" The little grandson's words didn't stop, and the granddaughter rushed to add.

After listening to Sun Bao's words, every sentence is in the topic, which shows that the children have a solid grasp of relevant knowledge and a thorough understanding.

"It seems that Sun Bao has accumulated a lot of adjectives and mastered them correctly. Oh, you're okay. Both "overreaching" and "overreaching" are synonyms of "moth to the fire", and they also refer to those things that are not based on the actual situation, but are determined to force blindly and finally pay a heavy price and get self-destruction, which can be regarded as "moth to the fire". I repeated the important meaning of "moth to the fire" and further deepened Sun Bao's understanding of this idiom.

"Grandma, didn't you say that' moths to the fire' has two meanings, and what does the other one mean?" I almost forgot that my little granddaughter brought it up again.

"Oh, what I just said is the derogatory meaning of' moth to the fire', and another is that it can be regarded as a compliment. Although "moths to the fire" has gone too far, what can moths do? But the spirit that moths are not afraid of sacrifice and refuse to give up is commendable. Therefore, we can praise those precious spirits who give everything for their own ideals and pursuits. What we just said is the extended meaning of this idiom besides the original meaning. " I patiently explained to Sun Bao.

"What is its original intention?" Sun Bao asked at the same time.

"In fact,' moths to the fire' is a biological phenomenon. After long-term observation and experiments, scientists found that moths rely on moonlight to determine their direction. When moths see light, they will mistake it for moonlight. Therefore, it will also use these so-called' moonlight' to identify the direction. Because moths always keep a certain angle with the moon, and the moon is far from the earth, and the light is close to moths, moths instinctively keep a fixed angle with the light source. In this way, they often turn around the lights and even pounce until they die of exhaustion. This is the truth of' moth to the fire', and this is its original meaning. There is also a beautiful love legend about' moths to the fire' in the allusion. Because you are still young, this legend needs to be discovered when you grow up. " Later, I emphasized: "Some idioms basically have origins and stories. We should understand their extended meanings and their original meanings, so as to know how to use them correctly. "

"Today these moths let us learn a lot!" Looking at the moths still struggling to put out the fire, Er Sunbao sighed.

"We should be good at observing everything and thinking about any problem diligently, so as to master more scientific knowledge and get the greatest pleasure in life." Walking on the way home, I was constantly inspired. As they walked, the two Sun Bao kept looking back at the neon lights. The artistic conception of moths seems to have penetrated into our hearts. ...

: darkness. Moth. light

who is it? Report on my favorite month? There is no light.

who is it? The ink spilled all day? Darkness.

who is it? Turn my silent night into boiling? boisterous

In the dark, the moth flies aimlessly, confused and helpless, and God arranges it in the dark, unwilling. It goes against the sky, looking for light in the dark, but once there is a ray of light, it rushes forward with all its strength, even if death awaits it ahead, even if hell awaits it ahead!

On the way, the bat laughed at its stupidity, the owl satirized its stubbornness, and the moth was silent. It has no regrets and pursues light and faith.

At this moment, it pounced on light and faith. In the long dark road, it did not degenerate, and the proud soul struggled and did not yield.

When the dawn shines on the earth and on the charred corpse, the soul of the moth is smiling, and it gets light at the last moment of its life. It "died beautifully and quickly."

Just when the world was bright, the bat owl slept in a dark corner, content with reality.

A moth is not stupid or stubborn. It is a pursuit, a fearless and fearless pursuit of light, and the power of faith is swallowed up by darkness.

When can I be like a moth?

: old lamp moth

I still remember when I was a child, there was no electricity at home, and kerosene lamps were lit every night. There are a few cocks painted on the black bottle, which is quite similar to the "Night Lights and Five Cocks" in Yan Zhenqing's "Admonitions". It is the time for a person to study. Black hair doesn't know how to study early, but Bai Shoufang regrets studying late. "Taste. But my brother and I started our research under that lamp. Until now, the lamp is still quietly hiding in the humble corner of the house because of my reluctance. The lamp body is covered with dust because I am not at home all the year round, telling the vicissitudes of time. At that time, my greatest pleasure was watching the little moth flap its wings in front of the light and hit the flame desperately. I wonder, isn't this a seasoned road?

I also asked my mother, and the answer was: "They are as afraid of the dark as you are." This answer makes me seem to understand a little, but I still don't understand. Time is a thief, sneaking away and stealing my childhood. But it also gradually made me understand the relationship between moths and old lamps. This is just a natural phenomenon! The scientific explanation is understood, but it loses interest.

As grandpa grew up, he had a deeper understanding of things. One day, when the power went out suddenly, I was too lazy to go shopping to buy candles, so I dug up the old lamp, washed it clean, and it was brand-new and radiant with youthful brilliance. There is no kerosene. Pour some oil on the wick, light a match and light the old lamp. The rooster on the lamp is still lifelike, with his head held high, which makes me feel that I am studying at my desk with my brother under the old lamp again. It's like seeing an urchin drive away moths with a pencil from time to time, being scolded by his brother from time to time, and then stopping to pretend.

Another moth came at me, and the flickering flames turned to ashes and I couldn't get rid of them. Suddenly there is a feeling of moving. It is a pursuit, a spirit willing to die for the goal in my heart. Ba Jin praised: In pursuit of light and heat, he jumped under the lamp and finally died under the lamp or immersed in oil. This mother deserves praise. At the last moment, he got light and heat. Firm belief and unyielding action made it get what it wanted, and the moth did not die in vain. It illustrates a spirit with its own death, and it gains people's respect with its own actions.

Old lamps are memories, silent dedication, moths are tragedies and spirits. The old lamp has gone out, but moths are still looking for it from generation to generation, looking for the light and heat of the old lamp, continuing the tragedy that predecessors will never finish.

Is anybody there? ......
