The reasoning method is now called the citation method according to the requirements of the high school entrance examination: quoting authoritative famous quotes from ancient and modern Chinese and foreign celebrities, penetrating insights or representative words from the works of Marxism-Leninism, allusions, fables, and generally recognized theorems and formulas, etc. etc., to prove the central argument.

eg. "Good at Giving Up" is a very classic argumentative essay. The first sentence of the second paragraph quotes Mencius' famous saying to prove the central argument.

① Modern society is full of temptations, which requires us to be good at giving up when choosing.

② "Fish is what I want; bear paws are also what I want. You can't have both. One would give up fish and take bear's paws." Both fish and bear paws can be obtained, of course. Is the most ideal, but this possibility is often the smallest. Usually you need to choose between fish and bear's paw, even if you only get fish. It is also a kind of success; if you are unwilling to give up either, blindly pursue "the best of both worlds". In the end, nothing is gained, and that is the tragedy.

③It takes courage and wisdom to combine and give up.

④The European golden eagle, known as the "King of Birds", only gives birth to two young birds in a nest. Sometimes due to lack of food, two young birds will "fight each other". The stronger one will squeeze the weaker one out of the nest and fall to death at the foot of the cliff. Faced with the reality of starving two baby birds to death or saving one baby bird, the golden eagle mother has no choice but to tolerate this cruel "abandonment". After the Northeastern wolf was trapped by the hunter's Tie Yangyang, faced with the two choices of breaking his leg or losing his life, he resolutely bit off the trapped leg and then retreated. The Northeastern wolf saved his life by relying on this painful and decisive "giving up".

⑤ Isaac Asimov, the world's top science fiction writer, once engaged in biochemistry research and teaching. in research and teaching. He discovered that he had a talent for writing science fiction novels. So he made a calm and objective analysis of himself: I am unlikely to become a first-rate scientist, but I may become a first-rate science fiction novelist. Asimov bid farewell to university classrooms and laboratories, returned home, and devoted himself to writing.

⑥ Asimov’s clever abandonment made him a brilliant achievement in creating 480 science fiction works in his life, and also won him the honorary title of the most prestigious science fiction novelist in the world. Letting go is sometimes painful. But if you cannot endure the temporary pain, you may invite lifelong pain. At that time, Asifov chose to abandon the laboratory and the platform where he lived day and night. It was undoubtedly painful in his heart, but it was precisely because he withstood the pain for a while that he achieved his great success later. If he didn't give up, it might cause Asimov a lifetime of pain and regret. It is also a pity for the world. Asimov's wise abandonment is his own happiness, as well as the luck of readers and the world.

⑦Asif's case tells us that if you originally have no advantage in some aspects, but insist on it again and again, always trying to turn your weakness into an advantage, you are likely to achieve nothing. Giving up your shortcomings is to strengthen your strengths and bring yourself closer to the goal of success.

⑧In the journey of life. There are twists and turns, but there are also twists and turns of opportunities. Facing challenges and opportunities, you need to think carefully and give up when it's time to give up. Don't give up a forest for a small tree.
