2. Classical Chinese (carrying a pole into the city) Cut a pole into the city

There was a man in the state of Lu who went to town with a thick and long bamboo root. When he reached the gate, he stood up to get it, but he was stuck by the gate. He took it sideways and got stuck in the walls on both sides. After a long struggle, he was too tired to enter the city. An old man next to him looked at him and smiled: "You big straw bag! There is only one string in my head! At my age, I have crossed more bridges than you have. Why don't you ask me? " The bamboo seller quickly bowed to him: "Please give me more advice!" " The old man stroked his white beard and said, "It's very simple. You saw the bamboo in two and went in. " "If the bamboo is sawed off, it can't be used." "That's better than being stuck outside the city!" The bamboo seller borrowed a saw, sawed off the bamboo and took it to the city.

[hint]

If the bamboo seller is stupid and ridiculous, then the old man with white beard who likes to teach others a lesson is even more stupid. Some "old hands" always like to do things according to old experience and old rules. They are not good at flexibly considering extremely simple or even common sense problems according to the actual situation. As a result, many bad ideas were put forward.

[Original]

Lu has a long pole to enter the city gate, but he can't enter at the beginning; You can't get in if you hold it sideways. Nothing can be done. An old father in Russia said to ②: "I am not a saint, but I have seen many things!" ! Why not use a saw? "Then cut it off.

[Notes]

(1) hold-hold.

(2) Russia-for a while. Father (f incarnation)-honorific title for the elderly.

(3) so-then.

3. Translate classical Chinese into the city; Original text-

Lu has a long pole to enter the city gate. At first, he took it vertically, but he couldn't get in, and he couldn't get in horizontally. It was nothing. Russia has an old father to say; "I am not a saint, but I have seen many things. Why don't you use a saw to go in? " Then cut it off.

& lt； Cut the pole into the city >; Translation-

There was a man in the state of Lu who walked into the city gate with a long pole. At first he stood up and held it, but he couldn't get into the gate. He came and hugged, but he couldn't get into the gate. I really can't think of a way. After a while, an old man came and said, "I am not a saint, but I have seen many things." Why not use a saw to cut off the long pole and enter the city gate? " So the Lu people cut off the long pole according to the old man's method.

& lt； Cut the pole into the city >; The truth-

The "long-term leader" is a fool, who doesn't think about things, rigidly follows the rules and doesn't know how to be flexible.

"Old father" is not as good as a fool. He is clever, giving orders at random and self-defeating, but he is ready to help others.

In fact, you can hold one end of the bamboo pole in one hand and put the other end of the bamboo pole on the ground to form a slope and enter the city gate. If the bamboo pole is laid flat, it is easy to blind others' eyes and damage their health.

This story illustrates two points:

1, limiting the three-dimensional European transformation to two dimensions will lead to some things that are not so perfect, if not unsolvable.

Sometimes, seemingly unsolvable problems can actually be solved by divide and conquer, that is, turning big problems into small ones. The old father's method is now segmented in cagd language

5. Cut off the pole and enter the city in classical Chinese. The main idea of writing this story is the story in the forest of laughter, right?

If you ask the translator, I'll give you a general idea:

Once upon a time, a man entered the city gate with a long pole. At first he stood up and held it, but he couldn't get into the gate. He came to take it and couldn't get in. I really can't think of any way. An old man smiled and said, "Why not use a saw to cut off the long pole and enter the city gate?"

The moral is as follows:

This fable satirizes intelligent and disorderly people, who can't think but follow the rules, don't know how to change, and stick to the rules.

If the bamboo seller is stupid and ridiculous, then the old man with white beard who likes to teach others a lesson is even more stupid. Some "old hands" always like to do things according to old experience and old rules. They are not good at flexibly considering extremely simple or even common sense problems according to the actual situation. As a result, many bad ideas were put forward.
