Chapter 4, Tang Poetry

Meng Ge, what book are you reading? Let's play basketball together

The silkworms exhaust their silk only upon death, and the wax candles burn to ashes only when their tears have dried

Among these suitors, there are certainly those who excel academically and are also handsome

With these 200 learning coins, it would be better to exchange them for intelligence, as this could potentially improve academic performance by a few more points

Since Yao Ming entered the NBA as the first overall pick, he has ignited the passion for basketball in China. Coupled with Yao Ming's success in becoming a basketball star, countless young people regard him as an idol and their favorite sports celebrity. Consequently, basketball has quickly replaced football as the most popular sport.

Please ascend the Lingyan Pavilion for a moment, and see how a scholar can become a marquis with ten thousand households

This can enhance a person's inner cultivation; at the very least, being able to describe beautiful scenery is essential. One cannot simply admire the sea and exclaim, "Ah, the sea, you are all water!"

He gazed at Tang poetry, silently memorizing it in his heart. It must be said that Tang poetry is indeed a pinnacle of ancient Chinese poetry, filled with a beauty of culture that, even after thousands of years, still possesses an irresistible charm

Qin Yuanqing is completely immersed in Tang poetry, as if he is communicating across the historical and temporal divide with great poets from a thousand years ago

The thin monkey has dark skin, and it is unclear whether this is due to natural traits or because of a fondness for playing basketball that has resulted in tanning

Qin Yuanqing felt that this was life, this was what days should be like. Reflecting on his previous life, it was nothing but overtime, overtime, and more overtime every day, with endless drawings to complete. Then, upon looking up, he would see soaring housing prices, immense pressure weighing down on him. At that time, Qin Yuanqing sometimes did not even know why he would cry, sobbing uncontrollably. He had no dreams back then, nor did he dare to have any dreams.

As for badminton and volleyball, he is not skilled at either

The thin monkey is not outstanding in academic performance, and moreover, he is dark and skinny, resembling a monkey, with looks that do not meet the standard. He struggles to speak fluently in front of women, so how could he possibly pursue Yang Haiyan

This Tang poem stirs one's blood and inspires a desire to mount a horse and wield a sword to fight for military achievements. Establishing a career and making contributions has been the dream of the sons and daughters of Huaxia since ancient times; which Huaxia man does not harbor the dream of becoming a general

Moreover, it is crucial that Qin Yuanqing is preparing for his college entrance examination essay. In order to achieve a perfect score, he must prepare meticulously. In fact, to excel in Chinese, Qin Yuanqing is even practicing his calligraphy

Yang Haiyan, with a height of 157 cm and a weight of 83 jin, has shoulder-length short hair and an oval face. She has two adorable dimples and looks very cute when she smiles. This female classmate is considered the class beauty, possessing the highest attractiveness and popularity, to the extent that even students from the neighboring class write love letters to her

Later, they all attended County No. 1 Middle School, and only 13 students from their entire junior high school were admitted to County No. 1 Middle School, so naturally, their relationship was quite good

Since the beginning of the third year of high school, during several physical education classes, Qin Yuanqing has been sitting under the shade of a tree reading a book. For instance, he is currently reading the "Three Hundred Tang Poems," which is a key focus in the poetry section of the college entrance examination. As the saying goes, "One who has read the Three Hundred Tang Poems may not be able to compose poetry, but will certainly be able to recite it."

However, at this moment, Qin Yuanqing also began to understand why female internet celebrities could easily attract fans; it is indeed true that beauty is truth! Which man does not like beautiful women

Qin Yuanqing has never been particularly fond of physical education classes and tends to be somewhat of a loner. He excels in running and jumping, especially in sprints, high jumps, and long jumps, having won first place in these events during the sports meets in his first and second years of high school. However, he is not skilled at basketball, as he only started playing it in high school. As a result, his body is relatively stiff, making it easy for him to injure his classmates while defending. In his first year of high school, during a basketball game, he accidentally twisted a thin monkey's ankle, which left Qin Yuanqing feeling extremely guilty, and he has not played basketball since.

If you truly want to make money, remember to do it yourself, be your own boss, and work for yourself

Qin Yuanqing and Yang Haiyan are indeed from the same junior high school, but they are in different classes. However, they have known each other since the first year of junior high. After all, they are both outstanding students in the same school, so they are bound to encounter each other to some extent. Moreover, Yang Haiyan is a close friend of one of his friends.

The thin monkey was rejected and felt somewhat disappointed. He went to the convenience store and bought two bottles of water, giving one to Qin Yuanqing, who expressed his gratitude with a thank you.

Qin Yuanqing rolled his eyes and said, "Skinny monkey, you might as well give up on this idea. The chances of success are less than one percent, and it would be a waste of emotions and energy."

Sometimes, Qin Yuanqing would think that perhaps at that time the entire environment was changing, as the post-90s and post-00s generations began to step onto the social stage. They are characterized by their distinct personalities, thus echoing the phrase 'a great change unseen in a century'.

The voice of the thin monkey reached Qin Yuanqing's ears. When Qin Yuanqing looked up, he saw the thin monkey, already drenched in sweat from the exercise.

"Meng Ge, look, that is Yang Haiyan..." The thin monkey nudged Qin Yuanqing with his elbow, his eyes shining as he pointed to the girl in front who was playing badminton with Lin Yuling.

Extracurricular expansion has become an essential part of learning. Firstly, it increases knowledge reserves; secondly, it enhances language sensitivity, which is a crucial foundation for the subject of Chinese. A good sense of language makes understanding easier. For instance, his homeroom teacher even sings poetry in Minnan dialect during lessons, and it is not unpleasant to hear. According to Teacher Chen, Minnan dialect is akin to the ancient Luoyang Mandarin, and singing poetry in Minnan dialect is the most expressive.

It is precisely on this foundation that attractive female internet celebrities, with a little enhancement, become immensely popular, easily amassing millions of fans, and even during a live broadcast, they have a large group of men crying out and showering them with gifts. There is even a female internet celebrity who, due to her looks, made the son of a super-rich tycoon willing to be a sycophant, and she was fiercely criticized, becoming a laughingstock across the internet, the biggest gossip for countless onlookers, and attracting intense criticism from numerous feminist activists. Meanwhile, that female internet celebrity skyrocketed to fame online, her fan base surged by millions, and she earned hundreds of thousands of yuan in a single night of live streaming.

"Meng Ge, Yang Haiyan is from the same middle school as you, can you help a brother out?" The thin monkey swallowed hard, the excessive secretion of male hormones at the age of 18 had already begun to create illusions.

However, Qin Yuanqing was well aware that Yang Haiyan was extremely popular, as she was not only beautiful but also excelled academically, which naturally attracted many admirers

During physical education class, Qin Yuanqing primarily engages in reading extracurricular literature to broaden his knowledge base. As the college entrance examination continues to undergo reforms, the proportion of extracurricular content in the Chinese language section of the exam has been increasing each year, particularly in reading comprehension and the understanding of classical Chinese texts. These are all extracurricular materials, and original articles from textbooks are unlikely to appear.

Qin Yuanqing shook his head, truly a young man with an excess of hormones; it is better to keep a respectful distance from the troubles that women bring

The thin monkey was splashed with a bucket of cold water by Qin Yuanqing, leaving him feeling somewhat downcast. After taking a sip of water, he saw his classmates on the basketball court waving at him, prompting him to put down the water and run off to play basketball

This has now evolved into the greatest love poem, and it is unknown how many men and women have used this line when writing love poems, instantly moving their partners.

Do you not see the waters of the Yellow River come from the sky, rushing to the sea and never returning? Do you not see, in the bright mirror of the high hall, the sorrow of white hair, which in the morning is like black silk and by evening has turned to snow? ... In life, when one is successful, one must enjoy it to the fullest, and not let the golden goblet face the moon empty ... . ... This poem "Song of the Wine" is so carefree and bold, it makes people unable to resist singing loudly when they drink, life should be just like this

Qin Yuanqing shook his head and said, "Young people, truly wonderful"

As for physical education classes, who would participate in sprinting, high jump, or long jump

Thus, he sees through this world; no matter how hard workers strive, they remain workers, with the ceiling firmly in place. The boss's claim that more work leads to more rewards is nothing but nonsense in the face of this ceiling. You will find that the boss will assign you a multitude of tasks, often without compensation. You have an endless array of things to do each day, while the boss continuously paints a grand vision for you.

Qin Yuanqing's handwriting is neither particularly beautiful nor unattractive; it falls into the category of being legible. In the system's marketplace, there is an option to exchange for handwriting practice, but it requires 200 learning coins, which Qin Yuanqing is simply unwilling to spend

County No. 1 High School, as the best high school in Jinpu County and a key high school in Daffodil City, has consistently aligned with national policies, fostering a well-rounded development in moral, intellectual, and physical education. From the first year to the third year of high school, there are two physical education classes each week, which are also the most favored courses among students. Both boys and girls enjoy physical education classes; boys can play basketball, while girls engage in volleyball, badminton, and similar activities to relieve academic pressure
