Poetry appreciation:
The first two sentences of this poem describe the relationship between the old and the new, which contains philosophy. Because of its vigorous vitality, Hsinchu always surpasses the old bamboo and comes from behind, which is the inevitable trend of things. But Hsinchu, after all, is somewhat immature and needs the support, help and care of veteran cadres. Only in this way can Hsinchu flourish as soon as possible.
This natural and simple poem profoundly reveals the philosophy of life: young people are always stronger than old people, because only with the constant emergence of new forces can human society continue to develop and advance; However, the growth of the new forces cannot be separated from the support and care of the older generation. The two complement each other and influence each other. This is similar to what Yang Wanli, a poet in the Song Dynasty, said: "Xiao He has just emerged, and a dragonfly has already stood on his head.". .
