The origin of traditional Chinese thinking can be traced back to the Shang Dynasty because during that period, some important ideas and cultural traditions had already begun to appear in China. In the Shang Dynasty, the ancestors of China began to think about social, political, moral, cultural and other issues, forming some of their own ideas. These ideas are known as oracle bone inscriptions, and they are one of the earliest written records in the world, reflecting the culture and philosophy of the time. In the Shang Dynasty, the ancestors of China also began to create some important literary works such as the Book of Songs and the Book of History. These works reflected the cultural and social conditions at that time and had a profound impact on the literature and culture of later generations. Therefore, it could be said that the origin of Chinese traditional thinking could be traced back to the Shang Dynasty and began to gradually develop and grow during that period.

The creation of art works originated from life. It meant that the inspiration and content of the art works came from actual events, characters, scenes, etc. in real life.

Rebellious personality: This person usually has a strong personality and the ability to think independently. He does not obey traditional norms and moral standards and has a strong aversion and resistance to authority and order. 2. Strange behavior: This person's behavior is often abnormal and does not conform to the conventional society. For example, he likes to be alone, stay away from the crowd, or like to engage in some dangerous or illegal activities. 3. Conspiracy: This person usually has a certain conspiracy theory, likes to plan conspiracies or participate in political struggles, and often has a certain ambition and ambition.

In the philosophy discussion class, one student said," Matter is eternal." Another student said," Everything comes and goes." These two statements are not contradictory because matter is not eternal, but it is born and destroyed. The saying that matter is eternal meant that the existence of matter was continuous, without birth or death. However, this kind of existence was not a physical existence but an abstract concept. The existence of matter could be seen as a "state of matter" that would change and eventually disappear over time. In contrast, the saying that everything was born and destroyed meant that everything was made up of material states that were born and destroyed. This kind of existence could be seen as a " movement of matter." With the passage of time, this movement would change and eventually disappear. Therefore, these two statements were not contradictory. Matter was born and destroyed, but it was not eternal. On the contrary, everything is made up of the state and movement of matter. As time goes by, they will change and eventually disappear.
