Year of the Chicken Talking about Chicken The Year of the Chicken has passed, and the Year of the Dog is coming again, so I have leisure time to talk about chickens.
As we all know, the map of our country, from the map, is like a big rooster on the paper, standing in the east of the world with its head held high, in both shape and spirit. Unfortunately, France's national bird is the chicken, but our country does not have a national bird, if I choose the national bird, I will choose the chicken, choose our unique golden chicken - the red-bellied golden pheasant, this rare bird colorful, beautiful posture, of course, this refers to the males, compared to the females will be much humbler.
There is a place in Shaanxi called Baoji, which is named after the red-bellied woodcock that was historically abundant.
Most people are familiar with the chicken is the domestic chicken, are different varieties of artificial breeding, human livestock domestic chicken had reached as many as 200 species, now most of them have been lost or extinct, there are still more than 70 varieties of domestic chickens, domestic chicken is not only many varieties, but also called the world's largest number of domesticated birds, the global total of chickens raised by humans in more than 10 billion, as long as it is a man, there will be chickens. In ancient times, chickens were often sacrificed, and blood oaths were taken, and chickens were often killed.
In the Tang Dynasty, Emperor Xuanzong's obsession with cockfighting turned cockfighting into an industry - cockfighting, and the status of those who tamed and raised chickens was superior, and there was a popular rumor in the society that "it is not necessary for a child to be literate, and cockfighting is better than studying". The earliest historical record of human chicken raising is Vietnam in 8000 BC (Paleolithic Age), and then, China, India, Egypt, Ancient Greece, Ancient Rome ...... chicken domestication occurred one after another in China, the Yangtze River Basin of the Qujialing human ruins (Neolithic Age), there have been excavations of ceramic chickens, that is, as early as BC, the chicken has been popularized in China and Persia. The popularization of the domestic chicken in China as early as BC, while Persia and Mesopotamia is 600 BC, Britain is 100 BC, the occurrence of fowl rearing.
It can be said that among all the birds on earth, the chicken, in the evolutionary history of mankind, has made a great contribution. It was only after humans raised chickens in factories at high densities that epidemics such as avian influenza arose.
"The old man invited me to his house with his chickens and millet". Because of their economic value and ease of domestication, chickens have been raised in China for at least 5000 years.
The earliest professional chicken farmer in China was born in the Han Dynasty, surnamed Zhu, called Zhu Chicken Weng. According to the "Biography of the Immortals", Zhu Chicken Weng, who lived in Luoyang, Henan Province, raised chickens for a hundred years, and had thousands of chickens, all of which were famous and answered every call.
The chickens were scattered during the day and returned home at night to roost in the trees, and year after year, he actually made a fortune in chickens. As far as I know, China's largest chicken is also in Henan, that is, Xinyang Jigong Mountain, located across the two provinces of Henan and Hubei Jigong Mountain, 50 kilometers in circumference, belonging to the Dabie Mountains, the main peak of the Dawning Peak, the situation is like a rooster, leading the neck to face the wind, standing high in the mountains.
The chicken crowed three times, the sun came out, the chicken's morning dawn, was seen as an auspicious omen of dawn. Chickens have become the division of yin and yang, send away the darkness, welcome the light of the "Yang bird", "sky chicken", the embodiment of good luck, the chicken, good luck! The Division morning dawn with the sky chicken, to Chicken brake ghosts, in addition to obscenity to drive away evil, but also chicken in the folklore of the important role.
Qing Yuan Mei said: "Ghosts are afraid of chickens, chickens scream, ghosts shrink a foot, the light for one of the bright". Although the chicken is related to the phoenix, is the embodiment of good luck, and has five virtues, but if there is a hen crowing, it is unlucky.
"The Book of Shangshu" says, "The rooster takes the morning, but the family's solicitude", meaning that if the hen crows, the family's way of life will decline, and the metaphor is that the lady interferes with the government or things are not normal. In the agricultural society of the six animals, the relationship between the chicken and the dog is always difficult to separate, the dog watch night, the chicken in the morning, to do their duty.
As in the case of human food and color, all for nature. Lao Zi had the words "the sound of dogs and chickens, old and dead", and Tao Yuanming had the words "the dog barks in the deep alley, the chicken crows in the mulberry forest".
As for the "chicken and dog", "chicken and dog", "chicken and dog", all have their own canon, I think the most interesting is the "chicken and dog". I think the most interesting one is the story of "the cock crows and the dog steals". In the absence of clocks and watches, the rooster is one of the main timekeeping tools for mankind, especially in the pre-Qin Dynasty, people have the habit of getting up when the rooster crows, such as the chicken dance, practicing hard.
The borders and passes of countries were also switched on and off by the rooster, which led to the anecdote of Meng Changjun's plan to cross the Qin Pass. Meng Chang Jun, a nobleman of Qi, was a hospitable person with 3,000 guests. King Zhao of Qin once employed him as a minister, but when he heard the slanderous rumor that he wanted to kill him, Meng Chang Jun fled and went to the Hangu Pass.
Because the time is still early, the cock crows before the switch, Meng Chang Jun and his party had to wait for the dawn, suddenly, the king of Qin is coming, Meng Chang Jun was very surprised and confused. At this time, a no-name corporal claimed to be able to learn how to crow, in order to cheat open the city gate, Meng Changjun was very happy, and ordered him to try, and it was really amazing, and the sound curled up.
After a couple of cries, the roosters in the nearby villages responded, one after another, and even the chickens raised by the officials crowed, and the officials rubbed their sleepy eyes and opened the gate of the pass, and Meng Changjun's gang fled while the chickens were still alive. Afterward, people will be "chicken crowing and dog stealing" is a metaphor for each of their own strengths.
In fact, this kind of trick we learned when we were young from the movie "Midnight Cockcrowing", so much so that over the years, every time I go out with a companion to bird-watching, early in the morning, we will learn the cockcrowing, and often called the roosters near and far to echo, and it has been tried and true. ... It seems that if Lord Meng Chang were alive, I would be able to eat and drink under his tutelage. Recently, I have found that ancient poems describe partridges, wild birds, and even domestic chickens.
From the Book of Psalms, "The wind and rain are raining, the cock crows," "The wind and rain are as dark as the sky, the cock crows," to "The sound of the cock is the moon in the thatched roof store, and the frost on the boardwalk". "After the rooster is shone on the Qin, Taiwan, it is the time when the lone bird stops dancing", "Poetry is written in the moon all night long, and then lie down in the pine wind to the dawn rooster", "The dog barks and the rooster crows in a few places, and who is the one who planted apricots in the mulberry tree?", "Three more lights and five more chickens, it is the time for young people to read" ...... until *** "a singing rooster world white". Among them, my favorite is a Tang Dynasty Xiang Si wrote "chicken": buy the morning chicken *** chicken language, often do not have to wait for the idle song.
Deep in the mountains, the moon is dark and stormy night, wanting to approach the dawn day to cry. According to the algorithm of Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches, the year of 2005 in the lunar calendar is the year of Yiyou, which is the year of the Rooster.
In the year of the rooster is approaching the occasion, the introduction of some knowledge related to chickens, I think it is useful. Chickens have been a friend of mankind for a long time.
I think that our ancestors did not keep animals for pastimes and ornamental purposes, as we do with pets nowadays, but for practical purposes. The cow was kept for its diligence, for plowing the land.
The dog was taken for its faithfulness, for the purpose of watching over the house, and the horse was taken for .

3, the following analysis and generalization of the original content, the incorrect one is ()
A, the rooster has five kinds of talent, but was cooked and eaten by Lu Ai Gong; geese not only do not have the five kinds of talent of the rooster, but also often in the side of the Lord Lu Ai Gong chaos, but they are still by the Lord Lu Ai Gong's importance. This is because Lu Ai Gong did not really understand them.
B. Even though the rooster was by the side of the Duke of Lu, the Duke of Lu was blind to its strengths; and the geese, which were far away in the sky, were blindly revered. Here Tian Rao compares himself to a rooster, and some people who make trouble around Lu Ai Gong to a wild goose.

4. Translate the following sentences into modern Chinese.
① Do you not see the chicken? The one who wears a crown on his head is also a man.
② Not careful before and regret it, how can I get it back!
Answer: ①Didn't the king see the rooster? It is so civilized with a red crown on its head.
② Because of the carelessness of the past, and the remorse of the latter, where can I get the field again?
Translation
Tian Rao worked by the side of Duke Ai of Lu, but he was not valued by Duke Ai. One day, he said to Duke Ai, "I am going to leave the king and fly away like a wild goose." Duke Liao said, "What do you mean by that?" Tian Rao said, "Hasn't the king ever seen that rooster? It wears a red crown on its head, which is so elegant; it has pointed spurs on its feet, which is so powerful; it dares to fight in front of a strong enemy, which is so courageous; it calls its companions to enjoy food when it finds it, which is so kind; it never fails to report the time on the night watch, which is so honest. Although the rooster has these five qualities, the king still told it to be stewed and eaten. Why? Because they were right next to the king. The geese are different: they fly thousands of miles at a time, sometimes stopping at the pool in the king's garden, sometimes devouring the king's fish and turtles, sometimes pecking at the king's beans and grains; they don't have the five strengths of the rooster, and yet the king still treasures them because they must not be far away. So I will fly high and far away like the wild geese."
The Duke of Lamentations said, "Stay! I will write down (and memorize) what you say." Tian Rao said, "I have heard that he who eats another man's food does not destroy his vessels; he who leans on a tree for shade does not break its branches; what is the use of writing down the words of a man of talent and virtue when he puts them aside and does not reuse them?" So Tian Rao left the state of Lu for the state of Yan.
The state of Yan appointed Tian Rao as a minister. When Duke Lu Ai heard the news, he sighed with emotion and even lived alone for three months over the matter and lowered the standard of food and clothing to show his remorse. He said, "Because of the previous indiscretion, and bring the remorse behind, on where can I get the field to forgive again ah!"
3. Chicken crowing is practiced in this way reading answerBecause the title is not provided, there is no relevant title on the Internet, so it provides the relevant content reference: chicken crowing is practiced in this way Every time I think back to my reading life in elementary school age, I always feel that it is the same as my scattered village, always maintains the same pale and gray hue.
This gray tone was especially prominent in my language classes. One of the reasons for this was that my father was the language teacher at that elementary school.
Although he did not teach our class, it was taught by the old principal who had been my father's teacher - Mr. Chen Mao Hui. They were like two eagles, always keeping their sharp eyes on me, making my scalp numb and even a feeling of despair at the thought of language class.
But the miracle finally came in the fall of 1973. I was temporarily absorbed as a member of the school literary propaganda team.
I was so excited about this for days, as if every hair on my body was secretly dancing wildly. I was a member of the literary propaganda team, which means that I can not have to go to the morning reading class every day, can be crowned to rehearsal of various programs, which means that I can go to the construction site or factory to participate in a variety of cultural and artistic performances, without having to blearily in the crowd as a poor spectator.
The honorable assignment I received was to perform in the classroom play, "The Chicken Crows in the Middle of the Night".
I was given the honorary task of performing the textbook play "Cockcalls in the Middle of the Night," one of the two texts I remember most from elementary school, the other being "Little Sisters of the Prairie Heroes".
At that time, I was small and thin, naturally became the best candidate for the weekly pickpocket. The old principal said, this program will be taken to the whole commune to the performance, so the performance should have feelings.
But I don't have any feelings for Zhou Poupi, so I can't act well. The first time I learned to chicken, I half covered my mouth with both hands and even called a dozen times, the old principal listened to half a day, only to be confused and said: "How do I sound like a duck."
This makes me very angry. However, the other students acted up but very involved, especially when I found the Zhoupawpi learn chicken, "the long workers" will be on my fists and feet, as if I was really Zhoupawpi, "long workers" in the surely some ill-intentioned guys, but I can not resist, who let me be I'm not going to be able to do that.
The natural way to play Zhou pickpocket is to be beaten. The good thing is that when I think of the prairie heroes, I also feel that the pain of this little bit of flesh is nothing.
But it is not easy to learn how to crow.
But it's not easy to learn how to do it right. During that time, I always had the time to "Gegegu" a few times, and my voice was almost muffled.
Several times, I squatted at the back of the house and kept learning the rooster crowing to see if the hens reacted, but I found that the hens were all tilting their heads and squinting at me, as if they were saying, "This guy, he's crazy! So I had to beg my brother for help. I ran to the front of the house, and then to the back of the house, and kept "Gegegu", wanting him to hear whether the sound can be fake.
My brother always said seriously, "It's a bit like that, especially the ones by the haystacks, but it's quite nice. But the rooster doesn't crow during the day, so it's hard to say how much it really resembles it."
However, within a few days, my brother had a fight with me, and I found that he often chased the family rooster while beating and cursing: beat you to death, this Zhou pickpocket! After about two months of training, we finally had to participate in the performance. It was winter, and we had a group performance in the commune square with the whole commune's school propaganda team.
I remember that the crowd under the stage was huge, and I was wearing a thick cotton coat and a silk coat borrowed from the troupe, while the "workers" were all in short coats. I was very proud of myself.
I carefully learned the rooster's crow in my thick cotton coat, then warmed my hands in my sleeves and yelled, "Get up! Get up! The chickens are crowing, so don't get off your ass and go to work!" I realized that the "long workers" were all shaking and trembling as they scurried around on the stage. When they finally realized that Zhou Pawpi was behind it, they angrily pounced on me, screaming in a shivering, electrocution-like voice: "I'll kill you!" They were all frozen to the bone.

5. Chicken readingOriginal text
The Chu people have a burden of chickens, passers-by asked: 'What bird? The passer-by asked, 'What bird is it?' The bearer said, 'The phoenix king.' The passer-by said: 'I have heard that there is a phoenix king for a long time, but now I really see it. You sell it?' He said: 'Yes. Is a thousand gold, not with; please double, is with. Fang will offer the king of Chu, by the night and the bird died. The passers-by did not hesitate to offer it, but hated not to do so. The people of the country spread the news and thought that the bird was a real phoenix and expensive, so they wanted to offer it to the king of Chu. The king was so impressed by his desire to offer himself that he summoned him and gave him a generous gift, which was ten times more than the value of the phoenix he had purchased.
Translation
When a man in Chu was selling chickens, a passerby asked him what kind of bird it was. He lied to the passer-by and said, "'Phoenix'". The passerby said, "I've heard about the phoenix for a long time, and I've really seen it today. Are you selling it?" The man from Chu said, "Sell it!" The passerby gave him a lot of money, but he didn't sell it and asked for it to be doubled, and only after it was doubled did he sell it to the passerby. The passer-by wanted to offer the chicken to the king of Chu, but after one night, the chicken died. The passer-by didn't regret how much money he had spent, but regretted that he couldn't offer the "phoenix" to the king. The people of Chu heard about it, all have legends, all thought it was a real phoenix, will spend so much money to buy to offer to the king. Later, the king of Chu also heard about it. The king of Chu was touched by the behavior of the passer-by, so he summoned him to give a lot of things and money, the passer-by got more than ten times more than the money spent on the pheasant.
Notes
Reward: to give the reward, this refers to the purchase price Fang: just about to, justified by the night with: to give, to give Not to mention: no time, can not take care of over: more than the value of the value of the mountain chicken: the name of the bird, a kind of pheasants F with: do not give the night with: the night of the Xian: are appropriate: should be Hate: regret, dissatisfaction
Briefly said: the story of the passer-by was uneducated, wrongly similar in appearance, the chicken for real-life non-existent. In the story, the passer-by was ignorant and mistook the similarly shaped pheasant for the non-existent phoenix in real life, and bought it with a thousand pieces of gold, which made a joke. The king of Chu was not aware of this, but he also took the chicken as a phoenix, and gave a heavy reward to the one who offered the chicken, which was a laughing stock for the ages. Tang Li Bai "gift from the younger brother冽"："Chu people do not know the phoenix, heavy price for the mountain chicken."
Revelation: This story is used as a metaphor for not recognizing the truth, or as a self-effacing, self-deprecating word for devotion.
People should be sincere and mellow at heart. In the end, the king of Chu was touched by the passer-by's intention to offer to the king and gave him ten times the wealth of Feng, which means that the passer-by was rewarded because of his sincerity.
The translation of the main text is: one must be sincere and have a good heart. In the end, the king of Chu was touched by the passer-by's desire to offer himself to the king and gave him ten times as much wealth as the phoenix, that is to say, it was because of this sincerity that the passer-by was rewarded.
