3. The characters in literary works come from life, but they are higher than life.
The answer to the second question: Gao Xiao's behavior of catching butterflies with colorful wings on the island is correct.
The reason for this is the following：
1. Gem Island is far from the mainland, and there are no insects on the island;

3. Gao Xiao brought butterflies to a desert island, hoping that they could live and work in peace and contentment on the island like soldiers, so that plants such as watermelons on the island could not only blossom, but also bear fruit, which reflected the determination and spirit of frontier guards represented by Gao Xiao to take root in the sea and build the island.

Original "colorful wings"
A heavy rain has just passed, the blue sky is washed, and the waves on the sea are undulating. The ship rocked back and forth rhythmically. Accompanying me on the boat to Gem Island is a short pier (dūn) soldier, a signalman of Gem Island Observation and Communication Station, surnamed Gao, who has just returned from Heilongjiang.
Gao Xiao was talking and laughing on the dock. At this time, he fell silent, his lips closed and his eyes became numb. He threw the big bag aside and held a cardboard box tightly in his arms.
In order to adjust the dull atmosphere, I deliberately joked with him: "I guess there must be something delicious in this carton." From home? "
Gao Xiao smiled faintly: "No, you can't eat."
"I don't believe it!" I look serious. "Come on, let me try."
Gao Xiao was a little anxious: "I really can't eat. It is filled with some small insects, butterflies and so on. It flew away as soon as it was opened. "
I've never heard of soldiers bringing this kind of thing back from visiting relatives. I was about to get to the bottom of it when my high lips tightened again and my face was even uglier than before. I know what it's like to get seasick, so I stopped.
In the evening, the boat took us to Gem Island. When the lighthouse at the top of the island shone brightly, the stationmaster of the observation communication station pulled me and said, "Come on, come to our party."
This is really a special party. On the blackboard, the imitation of Song Dynasty is written with three Chinese characters: "Gua Pin Hui", and there is a big watermelon on a white porcelain plate on a small platform. The stationmaster raised the big watermelon in his right hand and said with mirth, "Comrades, this is the first watermelon on our island. Tonight, we will hold a melon tasting to celebrate, and everyone will share the fruits of their labor. "
In the laughter, I know the unusual origin of this watermelon.
Two years ago, soldiers came to Gem Island and set up this new position. They opened pieces of "Teru Shimada" under rocks and beside roads, and sowed the vegetable seeds brought from their hometown together with their deep feelings for building and loving the island. Last year, the stationmaster and the soldiers planted several watermelon seeds. The melon seedlings have been unearthed, the seedlings have been dragged, and the small yellow flowers have opened. But in the harvest season, there is not even a small melon. Some soldiers were discouraged and pursed their lips and said, "Watermelon thinks our island is hard and doesn't want to settle here."
Why don't melons blossom and bear fruit? Is the water not watered enough, the fertilizer is not applied enough, or the soil is not good at all? A radar soldier knows something about agriculture, and he found the answer: watermelon needs pollination to bloom. The island is far from the mainland and there are no bees or other insects. Watermelon flowers don't pollinate, of course, they can't bear melons. After what he said, everyone understood. This year, all the seedlings have blossomed, and each female flower is carefully pollinated artificially. Small melons really bear a lot of fruit. They are so watery and lovely. Unexpectedly, after a heavy rain, huge waves rushed to the island, knocking the melons to the ground one by one. Later, when I checked, there was only one melon seedling left behind the big stone. They look after melons like babies, watering and fertilizing them, and dare not be careless at all. Miracle finally appeared, and the first watermelon matured on this island.
The stationmaster sliced the big watermelon, put it in a white porcelain plate and distributed it to every soldier. The soldiers all laughed, picked up a small piece with two fingers, studied it carefully, sniffed it gently, took a bite slowly, but could not help but sigh. It seems that a sweet spring water flows into every soldier's heart.
I pushed Gao Xiao, who was sitting next to me, and said with a smile, "The secret of your carton should be made public now."
Gao Xiao said, "You have understood it for a long time."
"So, do you really want those butterflies to settle here?"
Gao Xiao nodded and told me that he had put all the insects in the carton before dinner. He smiled and said, "I don't believe that these elves will not love the island of our motherland and will not live and work here."
Woke up the next day, it was already dawn. I suddenly found a butterfly on the window pane, facing the morning sun and flapping its colorful wings.
