How do you view the situation of the young man in "Border Town" who "loves you so much that it is difficult to open his heart"? Please study it in the context of the times?

Answer 1

" Border Town " was a famous story about a young man who " loved you so much that it was difficult to say it out loud." This plot was a very important turning point in the novel. Through this plot, the author successfully portrayed a sensitive person who loved her deeply but did not dare to express it.

We can better understand this character by studying the plot in the context of the times. In Shen Congwen's era, China was still in a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society. The society was dark and the people were poor. The injustice and oppression of the society made people feel hopeless and helpless. In such a social environment, people often feel inferior and lonely. They yearn for recognition and respect but are afraid of being accepted by society.

It was understandable for the young protagonist to feel conflicted and anxious in the plot of " I love you so much that it's hard to say it out loud." He loved his girlfriend deeply, but he did not dare to express it because of social pressure and his own inferiority complex. This kind of contradiction and anxiety not only existed in this character, but also in many young people at that time. They face pressure from family, society, school and other aspects, eager to be recognized and accepted by the opposite sex, but afraid of being discriminated against by society.

Although the plot of " I love you so much that it's hard to say it out loud " was an ancient story, the message and values it conveyed were still applicable to today's society. We need to understand and respect everyone's inner feelings and choices, and not put pressure on or discriminate against anyone. At the same time, we also need to encourage people to bravely express their thoughts and feelings, and not be afraid to move forward because of social pressure and incomprehension.
