Make an appreciative comment

The "persuasion" in this poem plays a leading role in the whole article. "Persuasion" is interpreted as "encouragement".

"Young people are easy to learn when they are old, but difficult to succeed. An inch of time is not light. " This is the poet's personal experience to warn young people that life is easy to get old and learning is difficult, so we must cherish time. Because it is easy to get old, it is not light, which shows the importance of cherishing time. Explain that we should cherish the beautiful years, study hard, and never let precious time slip away from us in vain.

"I didn't feel the dream of spring grass in the pond. The leaves in front of the steps are already autumn." With a keen and delicate brushwork, the poet borrows the beautiful images in previous poems, and combines his deep feelings of "Young people are easy to get old, learning to be excellent and becoming an official", and uses the voice of Ye Qiu to compare the degree to which time flies and years are easy to pass, which is very appropriate.

Be prepared for the power of encouragement; Thus, it can better reflect the theme of "An inch of time is not light" and leave a deep impression on readers.

Through waking dreams and falling leaves, the poem symbolizes the fleeting time, warning young people to cherish time, study hard, persuade others and be self-controlled. Warn people to cherish time, pursue their studies, lament that life is short, and seize the time to study, so that they will not regret wasting their time in the future and will not waste their lives because of mediocrity.

The days of youth are easy to pass away, but learning is difficult to succeed, so cherish every inch of time and don't let it go easily. Before I woke up from the bright spring, the leaves of plane trees rustled in the autumn wind in front of the steps. Occasionally is a seven-character quatrain written by Zhu in Southern Song Dynasty. Tell us that youth is fleeting and learning is difficult. Cherish this young time and don't miss it easily.
