With the rest of the references:
Briefly describe one specific episode or event that best characterizes the feudal and authoritarian character of Master Gao.
Answer:① Feng Leshan, the president of the Confucian Church, asks the Gao Mansion for a maiden as a concubine, and Master Gao agrees wholeheartedly, so he arbitrarily chooses one of all his maids to give to him as a favor, and this chosen one is Mingfeng. The chosen one is Mingfeng. But Mingfeng only has the third young master Juehui in her heart, and she fights to the death and throws herself into the lake in despair. Just as Juexin is looking forward to the misty love, his father brings him a bolt from the blue: "Your grandfather wishes to have a great-grandson." So, his father drew lots for a marriage, and the marriage was hastily consummated. From then on, Juexin had to cut off the path of love with his sweetheart Mei, and this incident ruined Mei's life's happiness. ③ Feng Leshan mentions the marriage to the Gao family at his birthday banquet - he wants to betroth his niece to Jiemin, to which Elder Master Gao agrees wholeheartedly. Jiemin, who is in love with Qin, immediately objects. Jiexin explains Jiemin's opinion to his grandfather, who immediately and angrily dismisses it: "I say it's right, who dares to say it's not right? What I want to do, I will do!" .
3. How was the decision made on the marriage of Juexin made?
Answer:
Juexin's father and stepmother did not know which of the two girls they had in mind was the more suitable spouse for their son, Juexin, and the favor of the matchmakers invited by both families was equally great. So the father had to resort to casting lots, in which Li wrote the surnames of the two girls on small pieces of red paper, kneaded them into two balls, prayed before the god of his ancestors, and then picked one up at random, resulting in the selection of Li's girl.
4. Look at the situation of the dragon lantern.
A: the night of the ninth day of the first month of the year, Kedin invited the dragon lanterns, everyone gathered in the public house of the second door inside the temporary bleachers to watch the dragon lanterns, when the dragon lanterns live and dance, the group put the firecrackers, firecrackers to play dragon lanterns shooting, so that sparks shot to play dragon lanterns on the naked body of the person. The crowd had a great time, but Juehui felt that this was a lack of compassion by basing their own pleasure on the pain of others.
5. There is a situation within the Gao family when the mutiny occurs in which each of them flies away from the other in great distress.
A: Juexin and his cousin Qian Meifen were childhood sweethearts, but Mei's mother and Zhou, Juexin's stepmother, had a disagreement at the card table and retaliated by refusing to marry. Juexin bends to his father's will and marries Ruijue. Soon after, Mei was married. Within a year, she was widowed and returned to her mother's home. When the warlords went to war, Mei followed Mrs. Zhang and Qin to take refuge in the Gao Mansion, where she reunited with Juexin, and neither of them could forget their love. In the contradiction and pain, Qian Meifen became depressed and died of vomiting blood. This love tragedy is really sobering.
6. A heartfelt conversation between Ruijue and Mei.
A: Seeing how close Juexin and Ruijue were when they played cards, Mei's heart ached so much that she hid in Shuhua's room and cried. Ruijue went in and told Mei that she wanted to genuinely help her, and that she wanted to really walk away so that Mei and Juexin could live happily ever after. Mei tells Ruijue that it's fate that she and Juexin are not meant to be, and asks her not to feel sad and sympathetic, and to forgive herself for her mixed feelings about Juexin.
10. The role of JUEXIN in JUEMIN's resistance to the marriage.
A: Instead of helping Jiemin, Jiexin persuades Jiemin to obey his grandfather's will, and becomes his accomplice and the object of Jiemin's complaint. After Jiemin ran away from his marriage, he asked Juehui to help him find Jiemin, but not only was he refused, he also became the object of Juehui's accusations and ridicule. JUEXIN was ultimately condemned by his conscience and suffered from inner pain because of his inability to help Jiemin, and he was also scolded by Old Master Gao because he could not find Jiemin.
12. How did Kemin, Jueshin and Juehui behave in their respective ghost-hunting incidents?
A: The sorcerer wants to go to every room in the Gao mansion to catch ghosts. Keming and Jyuexin were not in favor of it, but with Auntie Chen's strong advocacy and the concurrence of other people, Keming and Jyuexin had to agree to it, and later went forward to persuade Juehui, who had closed the door of her room tightly. Juehui, on the other hand, resisted this foolishness by closing the door to her room and angrily rebuking Keming and Juexin.
13. What is the difference between Jue Xin's and Jue Hui's attitudes towards their elders' request for Ruijue to move outside the city to give birth?
A: Although Jiexin didn't believe in the idea of "the plague of bloodshed" and felt pain, he didn't say a word against it, and withstood his grief and pain by committing himself and Ruijue to a damp house outside the city and sending Ruijue out to wait for the birth. Juehui not only thought that was all a lie, but also felt incredulous about what Juexin had done, and he encouraged Juexin to stand up and fight back.
15. The effect of Ruijue's death on Juexin.
A: The death of Ruijue made Juexin realize that it was the feudal system and feudalism that really took away his wife, and that they also took away his youth, happiness and future. He began to recognize and hate the feudal system and feudal rites, and began to hate his own cowardice and incompetence. Later, he finally secretly supported Juehui's departure and took a breath for himself.
17. What kind of person was Jue Xin? Please briefly describe one of his stories.
Answer (1) Jiexin was a tragic figure with a "double character". He was a man who was willing to go against the grain in all things, and at the same time he accepted the new ideas and was able to sympathize with and help the suppressed youths. (2) He loved his cousin Mei, but when this beautiful love was unreasonably stifled by the elders, he did not rebel, his father for him and the Li family marriage, but also expressed submissive, after a cry and Ruijue finished the marriage. Points to answer the question to seize the character of the "duality". Can be from his love story with Mei, Ruijue's tragic death, secretly help Jiumin escape marriage and help Juehui run away from home and other episodes to choose one to briefly describe.
18, Juehui is a bold and childish image of a rebel, please briefly describe a story to illustrate his rebellious and childish side. Answer A: ① Rebellion against his grandfather. Juehui went behind his grandfather's back to participate in the activities of the Students' Union, marching in the streets and distributing leaflets. Aunt Chen informs Mrs. Gao about this, whereupon he is called in for a lecture and is severely reprimanded by Mrs. Gao, who claims that he is not allowed to go out and participate in the student movement again. Juehui did not give in to his grandfather's unreasonable demands and argued his case, and Old Master Gao became furious.
②Showing Love to Mingfeng. JUEHUI, the third young master of the Gao Mansion, bravely expresses his love to his maid, MINGFENG. He broke through the shackles of feudalism and loved Mingfeng sincerely and passionately. In Juehui's eyes, Mingfeng is so beautiful, beautiful, intelligent and virtuous that Juehui loves her in his heart silently as if intoxicated, and has completely transcended the hierarchical boundaries of master and servant.
③Reveal "ghost hunting", the scandalous drama of filial piety. Master Gao is seriously ill and dying. This big feudal family is superstitious about gods and spirits, and at Auntie Chen's suggestion, they started to catch ghosts for Master Gao to cure his illness. The entire Gao Mansion is shrouded in heavy prayers to the gods, piously hoping for Master Gao's recovery. And Juehui was the first to fearlessly poke holes in the ghost trick.
Childish: As the young master of the Gao family, Juehui is genuinely in love with his maid, Mingfeng, but is constantly at odds and unable to make a final decision. When Master Gao wants to give Mingfeng to Feng Leshan as an aunt, Mingfeng complains to Juehui, but he sends Mingfeng away without listening to her. Mingfeng was forced to commit suicide by throwing herself into the water, and it was the sudden loss of this love that shook him to the core.
