Sentence annotation

10,000: refers to rich children. Don't starve to death: without learning and skills, there is no fear of hunger. Confucianists often make mistakes: Confucian scholars who are full of economy are all poor. This sentence is the outline of the whole poem. "Qian Xi Shi Yan" says: "This article is also intentional."

⑵ Father-in-law: a title of respect for elders. This refers to Wei Ji. Cheap son: young and humble people claim to be. Here is Du Fu's statement. Please, it means please allow me. Chen Ju: Explain in detail.

(3) The phrase "just past" means that Du Fu took the Jinshi examination in Luoyang in the 23rd year of Kaiyuan (735) with the qualification of rural tribute (selected by counties). Du Fu was only twenty-four years old at that time, and he was already a state guest of "the light of viewing the country" (visiting the capital of Wang), so he "charged early". "Visiting the state as a guest" comes from Zhouyi Guangua Xiangci: "Looking at the light of the state is still a guest".

(4) Breaking ten thousand volumes: Describe how many books you have read. If there is a God: describe quickly, and write with the help of God.

5] Yang Xiong: Zi Ziyun, a poet in the Western Han Dynasty. C: Almost. Enemy: matches. Zi Jian: Cao Zhi, the son of Cao Cao, was a famous writer in Jian 'an period. Look: contrast. Leon: Close.

[6] Li Yong: A writer and calligrapher in the Tang Dynasty, who was a magistrate of Beihai County. When Du Fu was a teenager in Luoyang, Li Yong was very talented and took the initiative to get to know him. William Wang: A famous poet at that time and the author of Liangzhou Ci.

(7) outstanding: outstanding. Lipton wants Luzin: I will get an important position soon.

The legendary ancient sage Yao Shun. These two sentences say that if they are reused, they can help the emperor achieve more achievements than Yao Shun and restore the corrupt social atmosphere to the simplicity of ancient times. This was the highest political ideal of ordinary Confucianism at that time.

I didn't expect my political ambition to fail. Although I also write some poems, I am not a hermit who escapes from reality.

⑽ Riding a donkey: Compared with riding a horse by dignitaries. Thirteen years: It is exactly thirteen years from the 23rd year of Kaiyuan (735) when Du Fu took the Jinshi exam to the 6th year of Tianbao (747). Travel food: send food. Jinghua: Shi Jing refers to Chang 'an.

⑾ Lord: refers to Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty. Qing: Not long ago. See the sign: called up. Ran Yan: Suddenly. Desire and extension: I hope to show my talent and realize my desire to be a gentleman.

⑿ The green ghost hangs its wings: the bird folds its wings and falls from the sky. Step: a difficult appearance in marching. No vertical scales: this means that fish can't swim long distances. This means that the ideal cannot be realized. The above four sentences refer to the fact that in the sixth year of Tianbao in Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty (747), Emperor Xuanzong sent a letter to collect capable people to go to Beijing to take the exam, and Du Fu also participated. Li, the prime minister, was jealous of talents and defeated all the candidates. He even said that "there is no sage in the wild." This was a heavy blow to Du Fu, who was eager to display his ambition at that time.

[13] The phrase "every time" means that you often recite beautiful sentences in my new poems in front of officials and highly recommend them.

[14] Gong Gong: Gong Yu of the Western Han Dynasty. He is a friend of Ji Wang, and Ji Wang is a famous rich man. He is very happy to celebrate with each other, because he knows that he will also rise. Du Fu said that he compared himself to Gong Yu and hoped that Wei Ji would recommend himself. Unbearable: unbearable. Yuanxian; Confucius' students are notoriously poor.

⒂ 怏: Anger, unfair. Tickle: The way you get in and out.

⒃ eastward into the sea: refers to seclusion. Confucius once said, "If the Tao fails, you can float on the sea by fork." (The Analects of Confucius) Go to Qin: Stay in Chang 'an.

⒄ Reward a meal: repay the kindness of a meal. Returning Zhao to Zhao in the Spring and Autumn Period (see Zuo Zhuan Gong Xuan Two Years) and Han Xin to Pumu in the Han Dynasty (see Historical Records and Biography of Huaiyin Hou) are all famous stories of gratitude in history. Resignation Minister: refers to bidding farewell to Wei Ji. These two sentences explain the reason for giving poems.

⒅ Bai Ou: Poet's self-comparison. Omnipotent: plunge into the mighty smoke. Who can tame: Who can restrain me? [2-3]
