謙虛并非故意自貶身價,做客套應酬,像虛偽者所常表現(xiàn)的假面孔;它是起于自知之明,知道自己所已知的比起世間所可知的非常渺小,未知世界隨著已知世界擴大,愈前走發(fā)現(xiàn)天邊愈遠。他發(fā)現(xiàn)宇宙的無邊無底,對之不能不起崇高雄偉之感,反觀自己渺小,就不能不起謙虛之感。謙虛必起于自我渺小的意識,謙虛者的心目中必有一種為自己所不知不能的高不可攀的東西,老是要抬著頭去望它。這東西可以是全體宇宙,可以是圣賢豪杰,也可以是一個崇高的理想。一個人必須見地高遠,知道天高地厚才能真正地謙虛,不知道天高地厚的人就老是覺得自己偉大,海若未曾望洋,就以為“天下之美盡在己”。謙虛有它消極方面,就是自我渺小的意識;也有它積極方面,就是高遠的瞻矚與恢闊的胸襟。
央廣網西寧4月9日消息(記者章成霞 劉澤耕)據中國之聲《新聞縱橫》報道,東經93.05度,北緯35.13度,海拔4612.2米。這是全球第二高海拔氣象站一青海省 五道梁氣象站的坐標。從格爾木出發(fā),沿青藏公路向西南方向行進.翻越連綿縱橫的昆侖山脈,進入廣表無垠的可可西里無人區(qū),五道梁氣象站就在那里。五道梁地高天寒,氣候多變,含氧量僅為海平面的50%左右,迄今沒有建政,沒有常住居民,公路兩旁零星的飯館和修車銷也都隨季節(jié)遷徙。 “過了五道梁,難見爹和娘”是流傳在青藏線上的諺語。高原反應是五道梁給每位初來乍到者的“下馬威”。
通常而言,即便是同一種植物,冬季和夏季的抗凍能力也不一樣在夏季活動期多不耐寒,在冬季休眠期則更為耐寒。這是因為春夏季節(jié),植物生長旺盛,養(yǎng)分消耗多于積累,因而其抗凍能力較弱。如北方的梨樹,在-30~-2℃低溫下能平安越冬,在春天卻抵擋不住微寒的襲擊;松樹的針葉,冬天能耐30℃的嚴寒,夏天如果人為地降溫到一8℃就會凍死,就是這個道理。
