Idiom story
"What's the difference between the idea that a book can't be completed without a name to avoid being ridiculed by the people?" in the spring and Autumn period, the Zhao family of the state of Jin destroyed the fan family. Someone took the opportunity to go to fan's house to steal something and saw a big bell hanging in the yard. The clock is made of top-grade bronze, with exquisite shape and design. The thief was so happy that he wanted to carry the beautiful clock back to his home. But the clock was too big and heavy to move. He thought about it, only one way, that is to break the clock, and then separately move home. The thief found a big hammer and threw it at the clock with a loud bang, which made him jump. The thief was flustered and thought that it was too bad. Didn't the bell sound like telling people that I was stealing the clock here? In a hurry, he jumped on the clock and opened his arms to cover the bell, but how could the bell cover it! The bell still goes far away. The more he listened, the more frightened he became. He could not help but draw back his hands and cover his ears. "Why, the bell is getting smaller and can't be heard!" The thief was happy. "Wonderful! If you cover your ears, you won't be able to hear the bell He immediately found two pieces of cloth and stopped his ears, thinking that no one could hear the bell. So he let go to smash the clock, once, the bell loud spread far away. When people heard the bell, they rushed in and caught the thief.
The meaning of Idioms
The sound of a clock is objective. Whether you cover your ears or not, it will ring. Everything that needs to exist objectively will not change according to man's subjective will. Some people take an attitude of not admitting the objective existence which is unfavorable to them or they don't like. They think that in this way, it doesn't exist. This is the same as "hiding one's ears and stealing one's bell", which is the expression of extreme subjective idealism - solipsism. If we don't face up to the reality of the objective existence, don't study it, and adopt a closed attitude, we will eventually suffer. Baidu Encyclopedia content is shared by netizens.
