桨 (jiǎng): aviron

Grandpa sat in the small boat, gently rowing the wooden oar to part the water, and the boat slowly headed toward the middle of the lake.

In the rowing competition, the eight team members raised their oars and dipped them into the water simultaneously to the beat of the drum, moving as uniformly as a single person.

After the storm, the old fisherman found that one of the oars had been broken by the waves, so he had to slowly row back to shore with the remaining one.

An ancient oar is displayed in the museum, its wood covered with cracks, bearing witness to the history of fishermen struggling against wind and waves for generations.
