That work, which we intendto tell, it is known and loved by many since high school, but suddenly someone forgot the plot and basic morality, therefore we decided to present to the reader a brief content of the “Gray Shake”.
Chapter 1. Unpleasant Troubles and the Nietzschean Drake
The story begins with a picture, like different birdsgoing south. Old Duck is the hardest hit. It faces a difficult moral dilemma. She has a daughter - Gray Neck. When she was still a little duckling, Fox broke her wing, and now the young duck cannot fly. Now Sheck only swims, but swims perfectly.
It's no secret that not all birds get to the warmcountries. And we are talking about animals in good physical shape. Mom was worried, because you have to leave the child completely alone, and there are wild animals and not very favorable weather conditions around. Even a brief content of the “Gray Shaky” makes it clear why the mother duck suffered so much.
Селезень (муж Старой Утки) относится к мучениям wives indifferent, even cynical. He says that, of course, Gray Sheik is a pity, but mother-ducks have other children. In her thoughts, the Old Duck reached the point that she decided to stay with her crippled daughter. And healthy children? Healthy children cope without it.
Drake, who was no stranger to the spirit of philosophyNietzsche, approached the problem of Gray Sheika surprisingly indifferent. He believed that since my daughter delivers so much inconvenience, it would be better if Fox would have bitten her off.
Summary of the “Gray Cervix” quite clearly allows you to understand the mother's heart and the inexplicable callousness of the father of the “wrong” duckling.
Chapter Two 2. The beginning of the journey through the valley of solitude
Нельзя сказать, что настроения отца не felt and not transmitted to the child. The last day came when the birds were preparing for departure. Old Duck was bleeding from the heart; she did not want to leave her child to the behest of nature and being devoured by wild animals. Mom even wanted to stay, but still decided that with respect to the rest of the children it would not be very fair. She gave the last instructions to Gray Sheika.
When the land around the lake was lowered, Sheika thought about the same thing that her father had thought about a little earlier: “Or maybe it would not be bad if the Fox dealt with it?”
This is how the brief content of the “Gray Neck” tunes in a sad way. One can only hope that the duck with honor will pass the test of winter and solitude.
Chapter 3. Sometimes they come back
This is not to say that winter has conquered space.quickly, but still it was happening. The unfrozen water in the lake was getting smaller. But the duck still did not care where to swim. There are two significant events in this chapter. One with a “+” sign, the other with a “-” sign. First, Sheika met the hare.
Here is how it was.A young duck of despair decided to visit the forest, and a hare ran at her. Both animals were frightened. Sheika admitted that she is very afraid of Fox. Hare agreed with her and said that there is no worse beast. But at the same time, Eared noted that Sheika at least can swim. If he could swim and dive, he would never be afraid of Fox.
Wonderfully writes Mamin-Sibiryak. “Gray Neck” is a wonderful piece not only for children, but also for adults. Reading it, you involuntarily become kinder and more humane.
The appearance of Fox
However, for the duck that is left alonehelp and support, there was bad news. Fox found out that Sheika was now unprotected, and began to visit her. And the lake was increasingly covered with ice. The ditch remained only a small part of the water surface, where wormwood blossomed in order to swim. Fox walked around this island and licked. Rightly believing that Sheika cannot be vigilant all the time, and sometime she will be forgotten.
Masterfully did everything Mamin-Sibiryak. Gray Sheika in this place makes the reader very worried about their fate.
Chapter 4. Old Hunter as Savior
Both the reader and the author understood:if everything continues like this, Lisa will achieve her goal. But fortunately for Ceria, the wife of the old hunter needed a fur coat. He wanted to shoot a hare and make a fur coat for his wife. But the hare community noticed the approach of a man with a gun and fled. The old man annoyed at his sluggishness. Then he saw: Fox lay on the lake in front of a small island of water. He thought: "Strange, what is she doing there?" I took a couple of steps forward, took aim and fired. When the smoke from the shot cleared, he decided to check how the Fox feels there. He approached the remaining water in the lake and saw that Fox was not there, but a little duck was swimming. The old man took pity on Sheika and took her home. He will give it to her granddaughters, and “the wife will not freeze on the stove even without a fur coat”.
So ends his narrative Mamin-Sibiryak. "Gray Sheika" - an extremely good work, inspiring hope in the positive outcome of almost any trouble.
What does the tale teach us?
На самом деле многому.And this is despite the fact that the fairy tale is a children's work. Here and maternal feelings, and indifference of the father. How many such families where the parents are charged in relation to the child are polar? There is a monument to human, teenage courage. The summary of the tale "Gray Neck" (at least, I want to believe in it) attaches, makes the reader feel empathy for the ducks.
Она и сама понимала, что шансов выжить у нее Little. But you should pay tribute to her courage and perseverance. She did not panic, did not commit suicide, rushed into the mouth of Fox, but bravely fought to the very end, and good luck smiled at her.
Hemingway once said:"Life is a tragic thing with a predetermined final." Indeed, we are all mortal. But it does not follow from this that people should surrender to the mercy of strong, predators and all those who want to defeat us. The same Hemingway wrote in his epic work “The Old Man and the Sea”: “You can kill a person, but you cannot defeat him”.
The most valuable thing is that all these moral imperatives(parcels, installations, prescriptions) are “embedded” in a children's fairy tale. Thus, the child, reading it, becomes a little more humane and kinder. He understands that the world is not so bad and angry, as various talk shows now represent.
This is a summary of the story "Gray Neck". We not only retold the content, but also revealed the moral content of the work of Mamin-Sibiryak.
