The Lantern Festival has passed, and I believe everyone has guessed a lot of riddles. 315 is a day to crack down on counterfeiting, and it has passed. Here, Sixiang wants to expose some fake and wrong riddles in the riddles. Please correct me.
Search the Internet for the riddle "Wearing a long black and white windbreaker, standing alone like a crane but not a crane. Don't wait all the time by the river. It's rare for fish to satisfy its hunger (beat an animal)". You will find that the answer to the riddle on many websites is " cormorant ".
There is a problem with this riddle. One of the dictionary definitions of "solitude" is to describe loneliness. Information: In the southern water towns, fishermen often bring domesticated cormorants with them when they go fishing. The cormorants stood neatly on the bow of the boat, each wearing a collar around their neck. In this way, since the cormorants are standing neatly on the bow of the boat, there is more than one cormorant on the boat. In this way, the riddle "like a crane but not a crane, standing alone" is not accurate. When fishermen fish, they will not bring only one cormorant, but a group of cormorants, so that the cormorants will not stand alone. Well, even if there are cormorants by the river, there is not just one. If only one cormorant fishes, the fishermen will starve to death and the cormorant will die of exhaustion.
This riddle is actually an adapted riddle, let’s take a look.
