"Xiao Hegang showed sharp corners and stood on his head for a long time." From Xiao Chi by Yang Wanli in the Southern Song Dynasty.

original text

The silence of spring is because I don't want a long stream of water, and the shadow reflected on the water is like sunny days and breezes.

The delicate lotus flower bud shows a sharp corner from the water, and a naughty little dragonfly stands on its head.

translate

Spring eyes are silent because spring cherishes the long flowing water, and the reflection in the water likes the soft scenery in this sunny day.

As soon as the lotus leaf emerged from the water, a dragonfly was already standing on it.

To annotate ...

The outlet of the spring.

Cherish: stingy.

Shiny water: reflected in the water.

Soft sunshine: a soft landscape on a sunny day.

Sharp corner: the tip of the lotus leaf that is not stretched at the beginning of the water.

Top: top, top.

Make an appreciative comment

This poem is a fresh poem describing the beauty of the pond in early summer. Everything is so beautiful, so soft and so affectionate. Just like a colorful ink painting of flowers, birds, insects and fish. The pond, spring, stream, lotus and dragonfly in the picture are all small, but they are exquisite and full of vitality.

The first sentence, closely related to the topic, is the source of a small pool, a trickle of spring water. The spring water flowed out of the hole silently, of course, it was very small. The flowing spring forms a trickle, smaller. This is a very common thing, but the author added a word "poor" out of thin air, saying that Yan Quan seemed to cherish it and was reluctant to shed more money. So this poem immediately flew and became affectionate, interesting and full of humanity.

In the second sentence, write the shade in the soft sunshine and cover the water. This is also a very common thing, but the poet added the word "love", which seems to cover the pond with her shade to prevent the water from evaporating and drying up, thus turning ruthlessness into sentience. Moreover, the poem takes the form of shadow, focusing on the soft branches on the water, which is very ethereal.

Write three or four sentences about a small lotus flower in the pool and a dragonfly on it. Xiao-he just emerged from the water, showing great vitality, but there was a little dragonfly standing on this sharp tender corner, which seemed to get there first and enjoy the scenery in early summer. Xiao He and Dragonfly, a "talent show" and an "early riser", look at everything around them with novel eyes and capture fleeting scenery.
