2. Introduction to the original text

The author once again described the thrilling scene, majestic momentum, and performance through the description of the Hukou Waterfall and the rhetorical techniques of personification and parallelism. The water of the Yellow River is broad and generous, with soft yet strong character and the spirit of going forward one after another and moving forward courageously. At the same time, the character of the Yellow River reminds me that although the Chinese nation has gone through hardships, it would rather bend than bend, be persevering and strong, and move forward courageously. Through discussion and emotion, the praise of the great spirit of the Chinese nation is expressed.

3. Introduction to Hukou Waterfall

Hukou Waterfall is located in Jixian County, Shanxi Province. It is the second largest waterfall in my country. The vast Yellow River suddenly shrinks from more than 500 meters wide to more than 40 meters wide. , the water flows straight down from the mouth of the pot with a height of more than 30 meters, and rushes down the ten-mile dragon trough. It is said that this scene is like a pot filling with water, so it is called "Hukou". What a spectacular giant pot it is. It's like the hand of a god lifting up a pot of yellow water and pouring it down. Watch the huge waves roaring, rolling, and spraying into the sky, violently hitting the stone walls on both sides left and right. Galloping forward wildly, like a sword turned into a turbid current, cutting through the riverbed on both sides. Walking into the entrance of the waterfall, you can see the huge waves and the mist filling the sky. It is really like a thunderous wave hitting the shore, the turbid waves emptying, and the clouds and smoke rolling back for half a day. Standing at the mouth of the waterfall where the water flow is the fastest, you can see the high and vigorous Yellow River rolling up like a hurricane, whizzing past you at a rapid speed, as if you will be swept away by the rapids if you are not careful. In summer and autumn, a rainbow rises sharply from the bottom of the pot and moves with the wind, making the waterfall hanging between heaven and earth even more majestic and beautiful.
