Admit China's book
Overall grasp
"Thank you Zhongshu" is a letter written by Tao Hongjing to his good friend Xie Zhongshu.
The article begins with emotion: the beauty of mountains and rivers has existed since ancient times. It is a great pleasure for people with elegant taste to taste the beauty of mountains and rivers and communicate their inner feelings with friends. The author regards Xie Zhongshu as a friend who can talk about mountains and water, and expects to make a comparison with Lin Shi through the ages.
In the next ten sentences, the author described the beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers with clear brushstrokes. "The peak goes into the clouds, and the clear water flows to the bottom", trying to describe the height of the mountain and the clearness of the water, and practicing with a pen, writing two perspectives of looking up and looking down, white clouds, mountains and flowing water, and the realm is fresh. "The rock walls on both sides of the strait are colorful. Green forests and green bamboos are available in all seasons, and the perspective is far and wide. The green bamboo and wood show a splendid atmosphere against the colorful rocks, adding vitality to everything on the refreshing and pleasant picture scroll. " The morning mist will rest, and apes and birds will sing; The setting sun is about to sink in the west, and the fish scales are ups and downs ",from the description of static scenes to dynamic scenes. The songs of apes and birds came to my ears through the mist that was about to dissipate in the morning; In the afterglow of the sunset, fish are playing in the water. These four sentences add vitality to the picture and convey the breath of life through the activities of creatures in two specific periods in the morning and evening. The author of these ten sentences chooses representative scenery to combine, so that readers can have a complete and unified impression of mountains and rivers.
At the end of the article, I sighed with emotion, "the fairy capital of the real world" is really a fairyland on earth! No one can appreciate the beauty of Kasper? Lingyun, but the author can find endless fun from it, and he has a sense of pride, which is beyond words.
Wang Guowei said: "All scenery words are love words." In this paper, the scenery is not just the scenery itself, but the soul of the scenery, that is, the vitality of all things in nature. Through the change of height, distance and movement, and the stereoscopic feeling of vision and hearing, the author conveys his joy of life in harmony with nature, and embodies the author's enthusiasm for nature and interest in seclusion. Clear pronunciation and mellow voice, without modification.
Night tour of Chengtian Temple
First, the overall grasp
Night Tour in Chengtian Temple is a short article by Su Shi, which was written during the author's relegation to Huangzhou. The article is only 84 words, but it creates a quiet artistic realm and conveys the author's complex and subtle state of mind.
"On the night of October 12, Yuanfeng six years, I undressed and wanted to sleep. I entered the house in the moonlight and set off happily. " It was early winter and the weather was cold. Just as I was "undressing to sleep", the moonlight quietly entered the room, so the author "set off happily". "Happiness" writes about its excitement and joy. "Thinking without pleasure" has changed from "doing" to "thinking", and the changing process of psychological activities has been written, and the literary situation has also fluctuated. The author may be thinking: Who will watch the moon with to live up to such a good night? Who can accompany me to enjoy the moon in this lonely exile?
"I went to Chengtian Temple to find Zhang Huaimin", which is the result of the author's "reading". The writing is light, but meaningful. "I didn't sleep with the people. I walked in the atrium." What a feeling it is to walk in the moonlight!
"The courtyard is as empty as water, the algae and grass in the water are interlaced, and the bamboo and cypress are hidden." "Water is empty and bright" describes the clarity and transparency of moonlight, and "algae and water intersect" describes the beauty and elegance of bamboo and cypress reflection. With highly concise pen and ink, the author touched a kind of ethereal, clear, swaying shadow and illusory wonderful realm.
"What night without a month? Where is there no bamboo and cypress? But few idle people are like my ears. " A few words are meaningful: the sadness of relegation, the feeling of life, the joy of enjoying the moon, and the leisurely stroll-all kinds of unspeakable feelings are among them; The language is concise, subtle and profound, exquisite and vivid.
Second, the problem research
The meaning of "idle people" in the night tour of Chengtian Temple.
"Idle people", that is, idle people, do not mean people who are extremely bored and idle, but contain complex meanings. First of all, "idle people" refers to people who have leisure and elegance. When the author and Zhang Huaimin enjoyed the moonlit scenery, they felt, "Why is there no moonlit night? Where is there no bamboo and cypress? But few idle people are like my ears. " On the surface, Zhang Huaimin and I are idle people who come out to enjoy the moon when they have nothing to do. In fact, it is an act of pride-the moonlit night is everywhere, and only those who appreciate it are beautiful. Only the moonlit night here and now is the luckiest, because people with elegant taste appreciate it. Secondly, Idle People contains the author's sad mood. The author had great political ambitions, but after being demoted again, he lived in Huangzhou. Deep down, why is he willing to be a "idle person"? The complacency of the "idle people" who enjoy the moon is nothing more than masturbation when they are demoted to "idle people".
Practice note
1. Read and write these two passages silently.
The purpose of setting the topic is to let students remember these two beautiful articles in class and form a good habit of reciting famous articles. Recitation is the basic skill of learning ancient Chinese, and it is very important to firmly grasp the content of ancient Chinese and cultivate a sense of language. The purpose of dictation is to check the effect of recitation, and it should also be done in class.
Two, these two short articles are all about natural scenery, but they express different thoughts and feelings. Try to explain.
The purpose of setting the topic is to cultivate students' ability to perceive the author's thoughts and feelings when writing landscape articles. Every article has its emotional tone, so students should be reminded to pay attention to it consciously in the process of reading the article for the first time, so as to grasp whether the emotion conveyed by the author is sad or happy as a whole. After studying the article carefully, we should also carefully taste the author's thoughts and feelings. This topic is a second-level flavor, and the comparison of the two articles can make the understanding deeper.
Reference answer:
"Thank you for writing a book in Chinese" expresses the author's pride in enjoying the beautiful scenery with ancient and modern bosom friends. There are straightforward sentences in this article. The article begins with "the beauty of mountains and rivers has existed since ancient times". This word "beauty" is the objective form of mountains and rivers, and it is also the author's aesthetic feeling of mountains and rivers-pleasure. "The fairy capital of the real world" will undoubtedly show its pride in mountains and rivers. "entertain yourself, there is no wonder." No one can appreciate the beauty of Kasper? Lingyun, but the author can find endless fun from it, and he has a sense of pride, which is beyond words.
The feelings expressed in Night Tour in Chengtian Temple are subtle and complicated, including the sadness of relegation, the feeling of life, the joy of enjoying the moon and the leisure of walking. When the author "undressed and wanted to sleep", he "entered the house by moonlight", so he "set off happily". Moonlight is rare and can't help but make people happy. However, no one enjoyed the moon with him, so he had to go to Zhang Huaimin and he was demoted. How many sorrows and feelings about life have been relegated! Two people strolled in the atrium, which was very leisurely. Compared with "idle people", it contains all the meanings.
Explain the underlined words in the following sentences.
1. The fog will stop and apes and birds will sing.
2. I want to be depressed at night.
3. People who have nothing to do go to Chengtian Temple to find Zhang Huaimin.
But few idle people are like me.
The purpose of setting the topic is to let students accumulate real words and function words in classical Chinese and remember the basic meaning of words.
Reference answer:
1. Rest, dissipate.
2. competition, competition; Jump, jump, here means jump out of the water.
3. Reading and thinking; Then, then, then; Here, here.
4. However, only.

I. Reference translation
1. "Thank you for your letter"
The beauty of mountains and rivers has been admired by literati since ancient times. Towering peaks soar into the clouds, and clear streams are crystal clear. The stone walls on both sides of the strait are colorful and complement each other. Lush trees and green bamboo last for four seasons. When the morning mist was about to dissipate, there were songs of apes and birds. When the sun is about to set, the fish swimming in the water are scrambling to jump out of the water. This is really a fairyland on earth. No one can enjoy the wonderful scenery of Lingyun in Kasper? during the Southern Dynasties.
2. "Chengtian Temple Night Tour"
On the evening of 20061October 12, I took off my clothes and got ready for bed. Just then, the moonlight came into the door, (beautiful), and I got up happily and went outdoors. Thinking that no one shared my happiness, I went to Chengtian Temple to find Zhang Huaimin. Zhang Huaimin hasn't slept yet, so we walked in the yard together. The moonlight shines as clear as water in the courtyard, and the shadows of bamboo and pine and cypress are like the staggered algae and weeds in the water. What night has no moonlight? Where are there no bamboo and pine and cypress? It's just the lack of idle people like us.
Second, what kind of style is "book"?
Books are letters, and ancient books are also called "letters" or "letters", which is an applied style. However, China's applied style has never rejected the aesthetic literary attribute, especially the integration of letters, and China's ancient lyric prose began with letters. The combination of practicality and aesthetics of letters is perfect. Letters of the Han, Wei and Six Dynasties focus on practicality, and most scholars have no intention of writing them as aesthetic works. After the Tang and Song Dynasties, in the works of some literati, the practical function of letters was obviously weakened and the aesthetic expression was strengthened day by day. Some letters are intentionally written as pure literary works (see the preface to China's Letters Literature History by Zhan). Yi Yu has various literary functions and can be lyrical, such as Sima Qian's Letter from Renan and Lin Juemin's Letter from His Wife. You can also write landscapes, such as Wu Jun's "A Book with Song and Yuan Dynasties"; You can write personal events and feelings, such as Ji Kang's Breaking Up with the Mountain Gathering Source, you can also talk about literature, such as Cao Pi's With the Quality of Martial Arts, you can also talk about politics, such as Ouyang Xiu's Book of Raising Officials through Going to the Sea, and you can also visit dignitaries to encourage them to study in the future, which has formed a unique tradition of writing. Like other styles, Ju Chi also pays attention to the layout and quality of articles. In addition, letters are not always marked with the word "book", such as Su Shi's Yuzidi and Answering Qin Taixu.
3. Appreciation of the Book of Appreciation (Xu Yingpei, Zhou Rongquan)
Thank you book is Tao Hongjing's reply to Zheng Xie.
Tao Hongjing (452-536) was born in Liling (now Jiangning County, Jiangsu Province) when he was a Dantu in the Southern Dynasties. He used to be the king's attendant because he saw through the turbid world. "Although I am in Zhumen, I close my eyes and don't say anything. I only study." ("Southern History") After living in seclusion, Qushan, but "whenever the country has good or bad events, it always asks for teaching. There are often several letters in the middle of the month, and people call them' the prime minister in the mountains'". Xie Zhongshu is Zheng Xie, with a degree in character. Chen was born in Xia Dynasty. He once wrote a beautiful book, so he called it Xie Zhongshu. Tao Hongjing wrote this letter to Zheng Xie, praising the beauty of mountains and rivers in the south of the Yangtze River. It is a masterpiece of landscape sketches in the Six Dynasties.
This landscape sketch, only 68 words, summarizes the ancient and modern times, including the four seasons, taking into account the morning and evening, mountains and rivers, vegetation, birds and animals, lyric comments, everything, it can be said that the scale can accommodate thousands of miles, words can be convinced. The success of this paper is mainly manifested in the following three aspects.
Beautiful artistic conception. The beauty of natural scenery itself constitutes a beautiful artistic conception. Writers reproduce with their own unique artistic feelings and emotional language, arousing readers' aesthetic interest, thus forming the artistic conception of literary works. The author of this article starts from the following aspects to make the article elegant and picturesque. First, the beauty of mountains and rivers. Mountains without water are boring, and water without mountains is boring. Accompanied by mountains and rivers, it looks fresh and affectionate. This is the "peak into the sky". Peak, that is, steep; Into the clouds, into the sky. At the foot of the mountain is the "clean bottom". The water is crystal clear. The peak is high and clear, and the dynamic potential of water adds vitality to the mountain. The reflection of the mountain covered the water with extraordinary splendour, which set each other off into interest. Second, the beauty of color matching. Although mountains, water and green are quiet and elegant, the single color makes people feel cold and lonely. Here, "the stone walls on both sides of the strait meet in five colors" and "the green forests and bamboos are always ready". There are hundreds of rocks standing on the wall, which are colorful and dazzling. In addition, there are green forests and bamboos mixed among them, just like colorful brocade dotted with jasper, which has become a spectacle. The two banks are like hanging two brocade baskets, with the blue sky as the background, flowing water as the foil, and the reflection into the clean stream, the scene is more beautiful and moving. Third, the beauty of change in the morning and evening. In front of it, I wrote a scene common to the four seasons, and in the four seasons, the morning and evening of each day are different. In the morning, white fog fills the air first, then flocs, then smoke, and finally there is no fog yarn, only dawn, apes and birds singing, and all the sounds are full of vitality. In the evening, the red sun sets in the west, the mountains are covered with dusk, birds return to the forest, and apes rest in the trees as far as the eye can see. At this time, the fish that used to be downstream of the water jumped out, moving silently and ringing silently, which was very interesting. The author's observation is extremely fine, and his pen is extremely delicate. He grasps the characteristics of things and describes the modality of mountains and rivers, which makes people's eyes turn with essays, their feelings follow, the morning scene is warm and jubilant, and the evening is quiet and lonely, giving people different aesthetic feelings. Fourth, the beauty of dynamic and static contrast. The objective scenery will not be monotonous, and the prose writing should not be dull. The author pays great attention to the change and collocation of motion and static. First, the form is dynamic: the peak is static, and the running water is moving; The second is the movement and quietness of light color: the bamboo is quiet, and the five colors are moving; The third is the movement and quietness of sound: the sunrise is foggy and the apes and birds are singing; The sun sets, the mountains are quiet, and the fish jump into the water. The above scenes interact and influence each other, forming a pleasing landscape painting axis.
Rigorous structure. Although this article is a sketch, the author still writes it carefully, and the full text is divided into three parts. "The beauty of mountains and rivers, talk about * * * from ancient times to the present" always leads to the full text. From ancient times to the present, everyone likes to use "talk about * * *" and "beauty" to point out the center of the full text. Some describe the beauty of mountains and rivers. Finally, the temple said, "I really want to be a fairy capital. Since it was rebuilt, there is nothing like it." First, I summed up the previous article with sighs, and then confirmed this statement with celebrities. In this way, the echo from beginning to end, the combination of discussion and narration make the main part of the article more distinct and prominent. In the part of scenery writing, first look up at the "peaks and mountains into the clouds", then look at the "Qingxi to the bottom", and then look at the "stone walls on both sides of the strait" and "green forests and green bamboos". Finally, we write in two layers: dawn and dusk. In a word, a scene, a meaning, second-order order is very rare.
Simple language. The language of this essay is very distinctive and concise, without any empty or superfluous words. Speaking of "peak" first gives people an impression, and then "entering the cloud" gives people a concrete image. Similarly, the feeling of "cleaning up" first is the first, and the feeling of "bottoming out" is real. The use of adverbs such as "five colors meet", "apes and birds sing wildly", "sinking scales and jumping", "crossing", "chaos" and "competition" fully reveals the state of color, sound and movement. This paper mainly consists of four sentences, especially in order, and finally ends with a long sentence, like a torrent, pouring into the sea.
"Thank you for writing a book" embodies the author Tao Hongjing's landscape view of entertaining. During the Southern and Northern Dynasties, due to the political turmoil and sharp contradictions, many literati often lived in seclusion in the mountains and sought spiritual liberation from the natural beauty. Therefore, in their letters, they often describe mountains and draw water to show their interest, and take it as comfort to their friends, such as Wu Yun's "Book with Gu Zhang" and "Book with Zhu", which all belong to this category. Although this kind of works do not show positive political views, they have created excellent works with considerable aesthetic value with their superb artistic brushwork, which has high appreciation significance.

Four, Su Shi night tour Chengtian Temple (Huo)
Su Shi's own evaluation of his literary creation, there is a very incisive passage:
My writing is like a fountain, it can be published anywhere. On the flat land, it gurgles, although it is difficult to travel thousands of miles a day. It twists and turns with rocks, shapes with things, and is unknown. The knower always does what he should do and often stops at what he can't do. That's all! Others, although I can't know. ("Wen Shuo")
This passage can be supplemented by another sentence: "A person who used to be a writer can't work for it, but he can't help working for it." There are clouds in the mountains and rivers, luxuries in vegetation, and depression. Although my husband doesn't want anything, can he get it? "("Jiang Xing Chorus Preface ")
The most important point here is that literature is a kind of "depressed" thing and has to be displayed to the public. If you have a "source of springs" on your chest, you can "get away with it at all costs"; Without ambition, you can't write a good article on your own. Su Shi is indeed a great writer with "the source of welcoming the Spring". As far as his prose creation is concerned, "ten thousand yuan" overflows into political theory and historical theory, and Wang Yang is vast; Travel notes, letters, prefaces and postscripts and other essays are all over the mountains, swaying and smoky.
There are only 84 words in the article "Night Tour in Chengtian Temple", which naturally flows from the chest. "What should be done" and "what should be stopped" are not divided into paragraphs. But it is not the "flat ground" of DC. Only a few dozen words. If "On the Flat Ground" is DC, what is its charm without rest? Read this article carefully, although it is natural and popular, but it is "tortuous and rocky" with distinct layers. "On the evening of October 12, Yuanfeng six years." It's like keeping a diary, honestly writing the year, month and day, and then writing the word "night". What should we do next? What the hell are you doing? There is nothing wrong with "undressing and sleeping". But just as I was undressing, I saw "Moonlight Entering the House" and felt that there was nothing to do, so I "set off happily". What are you doing? I have been "walking" alone for a while, but I am not very "happy". It would be nice to have another person; Suddenly thought of a person who can * * * "have fun", so I went to see him. These thoughts and actions are expressed in the following words: "Those who have no enjoyment, go to Chengtian Temple to find Zhang Huaimin". Have you met Zhang Huaimin? What did you say when you saw him? What kind of "fun" did you ask him for? Does he agree? In the pen of ordinary people, this is all to be written. The author only wrote two sentences: "Huai Min is still awake and walking in the atrium." Then write the scene:
The courtyard is as empty as water, and the algae and grass in the water are intertwined and covered with bamboo and cypress.
When you walk in the atrium, your eyes are attracted by the moonlight in the courtyard, creating an illusion of "water is empty and bright", so that you can see all kinds of aquatic plants criss-crossing. Why are there algae and water plants in the yard? Looking up, I saw bamboo and cypress, and at the same time I saw the bright moon in the blue sky. Only then did I realize that it was not "algae cypress", but the shadow of "bamboo cypress" under the moonlight! The metaphor of "moonlight is like water" is often used, but its clever use varies from person to person. It can't be said that the author didn't use this metaphor, but his usage is very different from that of ordinary people and his artistic effect is also very different.
Literary thinking is like a surging river, "twists and turns with rocks". Where is it now "unstoppable" and "stopped"? Because of seeing "moonlight entering the house" and "happily starting", it should stop at the month; Seeing "the intersection of algae and grass" turned out to be "the shadow of bamboo and cypress" and should stop at "bamboo and cypress"; Who appreciates the moon? Who watches bamboo and cypress? It's him and Zhang Huaimin. We should stop him and Zhang Huaimin. So to sum up all this, I wrote the following words and stopped at leisure:
What night is there no moonlight? Where is there no bamboo and cypress? It's just the lack of free people like us.
A few strokes, a piece of life. Narration is simple and clean, picturesque, and lyricism lies in narrative and scenery. Narration, scenery description and lyricism all focus on writing people; When writing about people, it should be emphasized that "leisure" entering "night" means "undressing to sleep" and "leisure"; See "Moonlight Entering the House", then "Set out happily" and "Nothing to do"; With Zhang Huaimin "walking in the atrium", even the "shadow of bamboo and cypress" was seen so carefully and clearly that both of them were "idle". "What night without a month? Where is there no bamboo and cypress? " However, only "the two of us" go out to enjoy the moon and see the bamboos and cypresses on winter nights, because others are busy people and "the two of us" are "idle people". The "idle people" at the end is the finishing touch, comparing the "leisure" of "the two of us" with that of others. Only when he is "idle" can he "swim at night" and enjoy the beautiful scenery on the moonlit night. After reading the whole article, the figures, moods and scenery of the two "idle people" are vivid.

V. Words are only short-term, but meanings are only long-term ── Reading an essay by Su Shi (Wu)
The key to writing this article is that the author grasps the characteristics and then expresses them in carefully refined language.
On the night of Yuanfeng's 20061October 12, the word "night" of "night tour" was deducted from the pen and entered the topic. "undress and want to sleep, moonlight enters the house." The author was about to fall asleep when he saw the cool moonlight and peeped out of the window. In this way, the "night" mentioned above is concrete. More importantly, it is pointed out that the characteristic of "night" is the harmony of moonlight, not the high black wind. The author grasps this feature and develops pen and ink. Moonlight into the House, such a good night and moonlight, activated the author's feelings, so he "set off happily". The reason for this action is to imitate the night scene of "Moonlight Entering Home". "Those who are happy without thinking, then go to Chengtian Temple to find Zhang Huaimin. Huaimin stayed up and walked in the atrium. " Here, the location of the night tour, fellow travelers and so on are explained. Words such as "Zhi", "Zhi Qiu" and "Zhi Bu" are precise and concise, and explain the coherent process clearly. "Going to Chengtian Temple" is another topic, but the journey to Chengtian Temple is omitted because it has nothing to do with the theme. What is the scene of Looking for Zhang Huaimin? Because it has nothing to do with the theme, it is also paid for. In this way, the people and things that "Yi You" must explain are only expressed in the simplest and most economical language, and the rest are no longer embellished. In particular, the scenery description of the night tour is more distinctive:
The courtyard is as empty as water, and the algae and grass in the water are intertwined and covered with bamboo and cypress.
"Water is empty and bright", and a pool of water is clear and transparent. Write the color of water first, and then write about the things in the water: "algae and grass intersect", criss-crossing, swaying. After writing the scenes under the court, I jumped out of this sentence: "Gai Bai Shu Ying also." The meaning of words suddenly changed and the language was surprisingly successful. The author writes about stagnant water and algae in the water first, all for the purpose of writing bamboo and cypress projections, and applying ink from the opposite side with visual illusion to form waves and rhythms of words. Bamboo and cypress can be projected under the court because the author does not make a stroke, which is precisely the ingenious use of pen and ink. There is not a word "month" in the whole sentence, and there is not a word that does not write "month". The bright moon is in the sky, the courtyard is as empty as water, and you can see the moonlight; "Algae and grass cross in the water", which can be inferred from the clear moonlight. Moonlight passes through the branches of bamboo leaves and cypresses and projects on the ground, which will form such a wonderful scene. The empty water and algae are intertwined, which adds three points of beauty to the moonlit trip. In this article, Su Shi uses the word "moon" everywhere to write night trips, which has one characteristic. He writes about the moon, unlike Zhang's "Moonlit Night on the Spring River" in the early Tang Dynasty, with only a few strokes, and the realm is exhausted. This is the second characteristic. Su Shi wrote the night view of the moon, not explicitly, but implicitly. Su Shi starts with the shadow of bamboo and cypress, and clearly says that the moonlight is empty, which is the third feature. Because of its characteristics, the whole description is accurate and vivid.
Literary works all contain the author's thoughts and feelings. If it is not enough to be satisfied with the scenery and narration, you must also express the author's thoughts and feelings, which will be memorable. Here, on the one hand, we should enrich the objective content summarized in the language; On the one hand, we should express the subjective content, that is, the author's thoughts and feelings are far-reaching. Su Shi's prose also provides an example.
This article is about scenery, but there is affection in it. When the author saw "moonlight entering the house", he "set off happily", and his joy was beyond words. "Thinking without happiness" is a kind of psychological activity, which contains the regret of few bosom friends and a faint sigh, which makes the mood slightly shaken. After a turning point, the author suddenly remembered Zhang Huaimin. "Sui" seems to be unthinking, but it reveals that only people are bosom friends who appreciate the moon. The word "beg" clearly shows the eagerness to visit friends. The word "one" of "I have not slept with the people" shows "the harmonious heartbeat of the sacred unicorn" and the joy of knowing each other. In the pouring moonlight, the two "strolled in the atrium" and strolled among them, and their pleasant mood was pinned on the synchronized brisk rhythm. From "thinking without thinking, enjoying oneself" to "strolling in the atrium", the author's leisure has experienced many twists and turns, and finally stabilized in Rong Zhi's peaceful state of mind. The author looks for friends to visit the temple, writes about the beautiful scenery of the moonlit night, and then introduces the scene in front of him and tells his life story: "Why is there no moon at night?" Where is there no bamboo and cypress? But there are few idle people like my ears. "Su Shi suffered from literary inquisition and was demoted to assistant ambassador of Huangzhou Yingyong. He was almost in exile and unhappy. But he is still enterprising, and visiting the temple on a moonlit night is a concrete action to relieve depression. The soul damaged in the political whirlpool can only be recovered in the cool moonlight night and seek spiritual sustenance from the beautiful scenery of nature. There is no bright moon at night, there are no white shadows of bamboo branches, but there are few people like me. "The vastness of time and space, the big system is small, and there is no expression, but its feelings are self-evident and deep in words. And this kind of feeling has its particularity, which is manifested in broadmindedness. The author is not indulging in the abyss of feelings, but seeking liberation. This broad-minded state of mind reflects Su Shi's ideological situation in this period, and also makes this essay look chic and elegant.
You're welcome. .
