中国对联文化

【对联起源】

    对联，又称楹联或对子。可远溯先秦。那时人们在大门上挂两块画着门神或题着门神名字的桃木板，认为能压邪。这种桃木板便叫“桃符”。相传五代后蜀君主孟昶在寝门桃符板上题词“新年纳馀庆，嘉节号长春”，谓之“题桃符”，即最早的春联，亦即最初的对联。宋代在门上张贴对联成为一种风俗。它是中国汉族传统文化瑰宝。

【对联分类】

    对联按不同的方法，可分成若干种类。按所用之处分，有门联、楹联、厅堂联、胜迹联等。按内容分，有春联、寿联、婚联、挽联等。按技巧分，有迷联、隐联、巧趣联等。按字数分，有短联、中联、长联、特长联。按句数分，有单句联、多分句联。

【美学价值】

一，形式美

①对称之美：

词性相对：“云”对“雨”，“雪”对“风”， “晚照”对“晴空”，“来鸿” 对“去燕”。

平仄对立：上联最后一字为仄声（大致指现代汉语中的第三声、第四声），下联最后一字为平声（大致指现代汉语中的第一声、第二声）。

②色彩之美：

喜庆的对联，都是用毛笔在红纸上写的。特别考究的人家是用金粉写在红纸上， 或者，先用毛笔写上黑字，然后再用金粉套黑字的边。

③书法之美：

楷书如坐,行书如走,草书如跑。对联上的字，尽量请书法写得漂亮的人写，既光门楣，又表示对未来恭敬之意。

二，内容美

①又是一年春草绿；依然十里杏花红。

②人近百年犹赤子；天留二老看元孙。

三，艺术美

A烟锁池塘柳；炮镇海城楼。

B好读书不好读书；好读书不好读书。

【对话春联】

春联的字数可多可少，但上下联必须构成对仗，如六言联“冬尽梅花点点，            ”。寓意吉祥，言简意赅，深受人们喜爱。

①培养人们的批判性精神以变革社会

②提供人类个体解放和集体解放的力量

③为解决复杂问题提供基本科学方法

④推动各门具体科学的发展以造福人类

    Tiny Tomatoes

    Tomatoes come in a variety of sizes, shapes and colors. And the little tomatoes are some of the most fun to grow and are perhaps the most rewarding. 
    Little tomatoes are classified into plum, cherry, grape or currant (醋栗) tomatoes.   ____ Plum tomatoes are the largest of the groups listed, and currant tomatoes are the smallest. There are also differences in color, flavor and skin thickness, but these differences are more relative to specific varieties.____

    Plum, cherry and other small tomato types are fun to grow because they always produce abundant crops of flavorful fruit. They are fun to snack on while working in the garden or while daydreaming about working in the garden.____They are typically sweeter than large tomatoes, and little tomatoes contain less juice and fewer seeds than large tomatoes.

    To grow little tomatoes, select a site that receives at least six to eight hours of full sun per day. Use a large container set in a sunny spot if a sunny planting site is otherwise unavailable.”

    ____You could also plant seeds, but already-started plants will provide fruit much more quickly. Water infrequently to help plants grow deep roots before the heat of summer arrives.

    Harvest fruits when they are ripe. They will generally slip from the plant at this point.____ Store harvested fruit indoors and unrefrigerated as cool temperatures change the flavor.

A. The best time to grow tomato plants is March.

B. Differences in size matter most commonly here.

C. They are also influenced by growing conditions.

D. Then select plants from the garden center or farmers.

E. All of them are delicious and almost of the same size.
