Word puzzles, picture puzzles and action puzzles.

Painting puzzles, as the name implies, are riddled with pictures. Its mystery is a painting.

A picture in example 1 shows a person measuring his height and asking for a mathematical noun. The purpose of measuring height is, of course, to know how tall your body is. Then, according to the guessing method mentioned above, it is not difficult to guess the term "solid geometry" (how tall a person's body is).

The picture shows two people walking and chatting together with their travel bags. According to this feature, we might as well associate it step by step. From "they help each other to talk", then the idiom "keep up with the joneses" can still be guessed.

From the above two examples of puzzles, we can know that "puzzles" also make full use of the principle of "don't solve puzzles", that is to say, the original meaning of the picture and the meaning of the answer are completely different. If the meaning and answer of "picture" are the same thing, it is not a mystery, but "look at the picture and talk". Let's look at two more pictures:

Neither of the two "painting puzzles" can be called real painting puzzles. Why? Because there is no other solution. The original intention of the two paintings is to explain "paper tiger" and "snob" (one eye is the seal representing "potential"; One eye is copper coin, which means "profit".

So we guess, we must first find out the characteristics of the picture, and then use other solutions to associate, reason and deduce the answer.

While introducing the riddle, we also introduce the "porcelain riddle" to you by the way. Porcelain plate crossword puzzle painting is based on crossword puzzle painting. Let's look at a few examples first:

A bunch of flowers were painted on the porcelain. The answer is "coil incense", in which "flower" is buckled with the word "incense".

There is a landscape painting in the porcelain plate. The answer is "landscape bonsai". It's not hard to understand.

A pair of flying swallows are painted on the porcelain. The answer is "Shuang Yan, middle basin", which means Shuang Yan is in the middle of the plate.

Generally speaking, the method of guessing "porcelain riddle" is the same as the method of guessing riddle, but the difference is that the answers to porcelain riddle mostly contain the words "basin, dish" and so on.

(2) Physical puzzles

The physical puzzle is called the physical puzzle.

There is a bowl on the table. There is water in the bowl with a flower floating on it. Answer: toilet water. Flowers are dew on the water.

There is a rotating miniature electric fan on the table, asking to guess the nickname of Water Margin. Answer: iron fan, small whirlwind.

There is a clock on the table indicating 2: 30, so you can guess idiom 2. Answer: Love at first sight has always been. Look at the clock, it's a quarter past two.

A glass bottle is filled with water and there is a shell in the water. The word "collapse" is broken down into "a shell in water" This is consistent with the puzzle.

Guessing physical puzzles is mainly based on the performance and characteristics of the displayed objects. For example, when we think about the "toilet water" problem mentioned above, we might as well ask a few questions: Why do we have to put flowers and nothing else in the bowl, and why do we have to put water in the bowl ... so as to grasp the words "flowers and water". At this time, it is possible to think of toilet water as a summer product. Looking back, there are flowers floating on the water, just to understand the word "dew". At this point, the answer "toilet water" must be correct.

(3) crossword puzzles

A charade is that the guessing person does not speak and uses action to solve the mystery.

There are many stories about charades among the people. For example, on a Lantern Festival, there are all kinds of colorful lanterns, some of which have riddles for people to guess. If they win, they will get a reward, or they will get this lantern. A man set a riddle in front of the local yamen. Instead of writing, he hung a string of copper coins and a mask on the nail, which read: guess a proverb. Later, a man came and took a string of copper coins off the nail without saying a word. The onlookers were surprised, but the enigmatic man smiled and said that he had guessed right. It turns out that this mystery satirizes the master in the yamen for taking bribes and perverting the law, which means "asking for money is shameless." Below, give a few examples to illustrate.

There is a small red flower on the table, asking to guess the name of A Dream of Red Mansions.

There is an unrecovered Rubik's cube on the table, asking to guess an idiom.

There is a lamp on the desk. Let you guess the common word 2.

There is a plate on the table with a steamed bread in it.

Now let's analyze it, because crossword puzzles need to be expressed by actions. The example 1 shows a "little red flower". We know that there are not many people with a surname in A Dream of Red Mansions. The first thing that comes to mind is "Hua Xiren", and "attacking people" can be explained by "attacking people". Can't Hua Xiren be interpreted as "Hua Xiren"? So, why did the jigsaw puzzle maker set up a "red" and "small" flower? If you are familiar with the characters in A Dream of Red Mansions, you will soon find a girl named Xiaohong. In this way, I naturally thought of an action: pick up a small red flower and gently throw it at anyone. The answer is "Xiaohong, from Huaxi". Read: little red flower, attacking people.

Example 2 is an unreduced Rubik's cube. Rubik's cube is played by hand. Now, this Rubik's Cube has not been restored. Obviously, the jigsaw puzzle maker wants you to restore it. In that case, the restoration must be fiddled with hands, not only to restore the "chaotic" Rubik's cube to "positive". In this way, the idiom "set things right" basically came to mind. So as long as you hold the Rubik's cube in your hand and restore it, this riddle will be guessed right.

A light is on. Thinking about action is nothing more than taking the desk lamp away or turning off the light. It doesn't seem objective to take the desk lamp away, but it is possible to turn it off. Think about it again, the action of turning off the desk lamp is to wipe it with your fingers, and the lamp will go out in an instant. In this way, after careful consideration, it is not difficult to think of the two common words "command and care" (just turn off the lights with your fingers when guessing).

There is a steamed bread on the plate. We can ask first: Why do you put steamed bread on a plate instead of a bowl or something? Or just put it on the table? Secondly, steamed bread is for people to eat, so it is not difficult to imagine the two business terms of "counting" and "importing" (when guessing, eat the steamed bread on the plate, that is, eat the snacks on the plate).

(4) Action puzzle

Action puzzle is that the person who makes the puzzle does one or several actions by himself (or others) and then lets others guess. This is just the opposite of guessing riddles. Generally speaking, guessing action riddles is easier than guessing riddles. Here are some examples to illustrate.

There is a piano in the jigsaw puzzle room, and there is a lamp beside it. Someone came running, turned on the lamp, sat down to play the piano and asked to guess the name of a weapon. Answer: flare

Someone played a guitar from indoor to outdoor and asked to guess an idiom. The answer is: sow discord.

There is an orange, an apple and a knife on the table. The riddler peeled oranges first, then peeled apples with a knife, and asked to guess common words. Answer: exploitation

You should also pay attention to other solutions when guessing action puzzles. For example, (1) playing the piano with flares; (2) sow discord, that is, sow discord among the strings; Exploitation is skinning.

(5) Magic riddles

The magic riddle is actually an action riddle, but it is linked with magic to make the riddle more interesting.

A magician picked up a letter from his assistant's plate. He showed it to the audience, then lit it and burned it in public. Then he put the burnt ashes in a box and locked it. At this time, he picked up the starting gun and bang. Then, open the box with the key. Take out a letter in public and show it to the original audience. The audience confirmed that it was still the original letter. Please guess four idioms according to this plot. The answer is: convenience, fire, blockbuster, intact.

There is a vase on the table, which is filled with red flowers, and there is a wooden basin beside it. The performer picked up the wooden basin and covered the vase. After a while, he opened the wooden basin, which contained only vases, but the red flowers inserted in it were gone. Guess two kinds of Chinese medicines. Answer: raspberry, saffron

(6) Seal riddle

The riddle of seal is a riddle that is covered with engraved seal on paper.

Example (1) is a seal engraved with the word "flash". If you ask a nation, the answer is "seal". According to the guessing methods we have learned before, we can understand that "land" means home, and "an" can be interpreted as a verb, that is, there is a "person" in "land". Then, there is a word "seal" in the answer, because the riddle is engraved with "seal", so the answer is just interpreted as "this seal is a door with a person"

Similarly, it is also a truth to use "guess" to shoot "India Tiger". The "degree" here is a guess, and the riddle is also called Hu Wen, so the word "tiger" can be deducted.

"Seal" is just one of the names of seals. In addition, there are many related nouns and terms, such as Zhang, epigraphy, stone, Zheng, Zhu Wen,,, ... and because the seal is carved with a knife. So you can carve, you can carve. Here are a few more examples to illustrate.

The seal of Example 3 is "fleeting moment" and "riding seal". Here, in fact, these four words are used to tie the word "riding seam", while "chapter" is used to tie this "seal".

The seal of Example 4 is the word "change", which means "innovation". So, the answer is "carved".

The seal of Example 5 is "One Voice" and the answer is "Qi Baishi". Here, chorus means "talk together", that is, "drawn white", and the word "stone" is stamped with a seal.

From the above five situations, we can get the impression that when guessing the riddle of seal script, we can temporarily put the seal script aside, guess the seal script by guessing, and then add the words related to seal script such as seal script, seal, engraving and stone ... If the seal is colored (such as red), we should also take the words red, Dan, Zhu and Yin into account.

The seal of the riddle is used as a riddle. In addition to obeying the rules of riddles, it is not to show up, to be written, etc. , it must also be related to the "seal", otherwise it will not become a "seal mystery". For example, the seal of one party is printed with the word "seven" on it and the word "eight" on the bottom. Another example is a seal with the word "Xiang" engraved on the left and the word "Xiang" engraved on the right. The answer is: think about it. At first glance, these two so-called "seal riddles" know that not only the answers have nothing to do with the seal, but also they are exposed, so they are neither lantern riddles nor seal riddles.

(7) Stamp riddle

A puzzle made by using the pictures of stamps and the characteristics of stamps is called a stamp puzzle.

The picture shows a commemorative stamp for the International Year of Peace. Think of it as a riddle Guess the answer of the second film: "postage is for peace", that is, "the reason for issuing this stamp is for peace"

Another example is to make a riddle with four stamps of the Year of the Dog, guess a word and solve the riddle: Qi. Here, the four mouths of the word "boat" are compared to four stamps, and the word "dog" is buckled with the pattern of "dog";

Another example is "using four stamps in the Year of the Rabbit". Guess one, answer: stay. Here, the word "Mao" above the word "Liu" is a picture of "rabbit", and the word "Tian" below is a metaphor for "Sifang";

Also, if you put an ancient silver-white porcelain stamp and a Huangshan stamp together, guess the name of Yue Fei Zhuan, and the answer is "Yue He, Silver Bottle". "Yue" here means mountain, and "He" is a conjunction.

As can be seen from the above examples, stamp puzzles are basically a combination of painting puzzles and stamp features. Therefore, when guessing, we should not only consider the pictures of stamps, but also consider the nouns, terms and hieroglyphics related to stamps.

(8) Audio-visual puzzles

Audio-visual riddles use one or several consecutive shots or a "freeze-frame" shot on the TV screen (or movie screen) as human faces. Because there are both images and sometimes sounds, it is called "audio-visual puzzle".

There is a fragment of the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895 on the screen: China warships and Japanese warships shelled each other in the Yellow Sea. Ask to guess the movie name (shutter), answer: Shanghai. According to the rules of the scroll, the war in Shanghai should be pronounced as "maritime war", and the above-mentioned focus plane is the scene of maritime war.

A set of scenes in TV series (A Dream of Red Mansions): Lin Daiyu has just entered Guo Rongfu, and everyone is asking questions around her. Suddenly, Yu Xifeng, who was bursting with laughter, came in with a smile and even said, "I'm late." Asked to guess the names of two movie actors, the answer is: Hada and Wang Jin, that is, Wang Xifeng came with a smile.

There is a wonderful volleyball match on the TV screen: one player on one side is jumping up to smash, and two players on the other side are jumping up to block at the same time. Suddenly, the screen stopped moving. Ask this and guess the name of the costume. Answer: Double-breasted buttons mean that both players jump up and line up the spiking.

Audio-visual puzzles are best to put a few shots in the guessing place for people to guess, just like magic puzzles, performing magic on the spot to attract everyone. If you can't do this, just explain it in words, then the interest and mystery will be greatly reduced. Guess this mystery usually begins with the methods of cognition and image.

(9) crossword puzzles

When writing riddles, they are written in black ink, which is the general way to write riddles. Color crossword puzzles are written in other colors, such as red, yellow, green and blue, instead of ink.

Example 1 Lin (written in yellow) Guess the name of this tree: Pistacia chinensis.

Example 2 Corner (written in red) Guess the name of Beijing Opera: Battle of Red Cliffs.

The guessing method of color puzzles can first ignore the color of puzzles, guess according to the general conventional guessing method, so that the answer has a preliminary impression, and then contact the color of puzzles. For example:

In example 1, the words "Lin" and "Lianmu" are written in yellow, so the answer is "Pistacia chinensis";

The "corner" in Example 2 can be interpreted as "wall-to-wall battle" (wall-to-wall and corner-to-corner battle), written in red, so the answer is "Battle of Red Cliffs".

It should be noted that some colors are red, and there are many substitutes, such as red, vermilion, blood, yin, etc ... all mean red, so pay attention to the changes here when guessing. In addition, in addition to color, we should also pay attention to the difference between the surface and the bottom.

(10) Telegram riddles

A telegram riddle uses "a message in the telegram draft" as a riddle.

Example 1 (guess entertainment) answer: video games

For example, the message of 1 is "children's tour", and guess the answer to the entertainment item "video game". The word "Zi" here deducts indefinite solution from "Er" and "You", while "You" and "Drama" deduct performance. "Electricity" refers to riddles and telegrams.

Example 2 (Guess four commonly used words) Answer: Save electricity.

The message is "Please come on 1 October1day". Guess the common word "power saving". 1 October1day is the national day, which means "dating in a festival". Because it is a telegram reservation, it is called "power saving".

Guess the second mystery of publishing: electronic newspaper and art.

The message in Example 3 is "You can apply for painting major, father word". This shows that the telegram was sent by the father to his children, and the answer was "electronic newspaper, art", which means "father telegraphed his son to apply for the art department"

The telegraph riddle is actually very simple. It is also a routine practice to guess the news and then add a word "electricity" to the answer. From this point of view, telegram riddles are much easier than "seal riddles" and "color riddles", because the answers to seal riddles need to be printed, stamped, lettered and typed with stones. Color riddles have many colors, and the same color has different names, while telegraph riddles only have the words "electricity, newspaper, racket, hair".

(1 1) chess riddle

A lantern riddle with chess games as riddles is called a chess riddle. There are basically two ways to guess chess.

The first type, such as Example ① and Example ②, is based on the characteristics of the layout.

The characteristics of 1 are obvious. One of them is short of five soldiers, so the answer is "veteran".

The characteristic of Example 2 is that the chariot is gone, so the answer is the armory. Generally speaking, this is easier to guess.

In Example 3, a chess game is marked as "black moves first", that is, black moves first and then guesses. This should not only consider the significance of walking, but also consider the characteristics of the situation after taking a step. Judging from the chess game, the best way for black chess is to "retire four sons and retire five sons", because only in this way can we kill red chess. So, the answer: corporal, general, just what he wants. Taking a step further than the above two examples, it is slightly more difficult to guess the chess puzzle.

(12) Don't play crossword puzzles.

A crossword puzzle is a crossword puzzle in which no words are written, that is, a crossword puzzle guessed by a blank crossword puzzle.

Example 1 (a blank riddle) (guess idioms) Answer: A piece of paper is empty (a piece of paper has no meaning of words).

Example 2 (a blank riddle) (guessing drama term 1) Answer: monologue (meaning "a blank").

Example 3 (two blank riddles) (guess a seven-character Tang poem) Answer: But he couldn't find the one he was looking for in two places.

This crossword puzzle looks very confusing. Without saying a word, there is no way to guess. In fact, this riddle is always associated with the word "empty, white, nothing, nothing ... nothing", and it is not difficult to guess its characteristics and laws.

(13) Pinyin riddle

Pinyin puzzles are puzzles made by using the form of Chinese Pinyin. This paper introduces the pinyin puzzle made by the change of reading "sound"

Example 1 drama (guessing drama terms) answer: props

Answer: 2 Ming statement.

The riddle is the Chinese phonetic alphabet of the word "ju", and the answer is: the prop is "chanting" to do "ju";

The riddle of Example 2 is the Chinese phonetic alphabet of the word "Ming", and the answer "Joint Statement" means that the sounds of these words are all Ming.

Therefore, when guessing pinyin riddles, we should first spell out a word from the words on the riddle and some Chinese characters that this sound may represent, and then add words like "Say, Read, Read Tao, Self, Sound, Sound ……" for association.

In addition, Chinese characters have four tones, and sometimes the riddles of Pinyin crossword puzzles are specially marked with tones, so this situation must be taken into account when guessing.

Example 3③ Guan (Guess Peking Opera I) Answer: Yangpingguan.

Du (Guess Peking Opera) A: Du.

The riddle in Example 3 is pronounced "Guan" but marked with the second sound, namely "Yangping", so the answer is "Yangpingguan".

In Example 4, the pronunciation of the crossword puzzle is "Du", but the first sound, namely "Yin Ping", is added, so the answer is "Du".

Although some pinyin puzzles have nothing to do with "sound", they have certain characteristics. For example:

⑤ Ten thousand (guess idioms) Answer: Vientiane Update

Example 6 ⑥JIU (guess Mao Zedong's words) A: The old look has changed.

The crossword puzzle in Example 5 is the pinyin of "Wan Zi", and the crossword puzzle in Example 5 is the pinyin of "Lao". The answer means that the image of the word "Wan" has been updated, and the face of the word "Old" has also taken on a new look.

(14) Calligraphy riddle

When writing riddles, they are generally written casually, regardless of the font, and the riddles used are all of the same size, specification and style. The main difference between calligraphy riddles and general riddles is that the paper used in calligraphy riddles is much larger and the quality of paper is better than that in general riddles, so as to highlight its uniqueness and attract the attention and recognition of guessing people. Secondly, some calligraphy puzzles use different fonts when writing, such as running script and cursive script. Of course, usually the riddles of calligraphy riddles are marked with the words "calligraphy riddles" to avoid guessing wrong.

The riddle of example 1 is "Man Fang Ting" and the answer is "Scholarly Family". Here, "xiangmendi" means "full of Fang Ting", and a word "book" means "xiangmendi".

The riddle in Example 2 is written in lines, and the white face can only explain that "water is in the clouds", so the word "line" just uses the words written in lines. "Flowing clouds and flowing water" means "flowing clouds and flowing water in writing".

(15) Mathematical Problems

Mathematical riddle is a kind of riddle that combines the operation knowledge in mathematics with the puzzle method.

Example ① 19 1 1 ÷ 3 =? Answer: Phytolacca acinosa and Panax notoginseng. The riddle is division, and the result is 637, so the riddle "Phytolacca acinosa and Panax notoginseng" is the solution of "quotient is 637".

Example 210000 ÷10 =1000 (shutter, guess idiom) Answer: ever-changing. According to the rules of scrolls, "ever-changing" should be pronounced as "changing thousands into thousands", which is exactly the same as the riddle formula, that is, changing "ten thousand into thousands"

Example 310002 =100×100×100 (guess idioms) Answer: leave no stone unturned. That is, "the square of thousands is calculated in units of hundreds." In this way, it coincides with the riddle.

As can be seen from the above three cases, the math puzzle mainly adds a little simple math knowledge, and its guessing method is still the same as the general guessing method.
