1, seeing friends off at Jingmen Ferry
Author: Li Bai in Tang Dynasty
Sail from Jingmen Ferry, and soon you will be with southerners. At the end of the mountain range and the beginning of the plain, the river winds through the wilderness.
The moon rises like a mirror, and the sea clouds twinkle like palaces. The water brings you the feeling of home and makes your boat travel 300 miles.
2. Travel far by boat, passing through Jingmen to Chu's hometown. Castle Peak gradually disappears, and Ye Ping stretches as far as the eye can see. The Yangtze River surges and flows into the vast wasteland. The image of the moon on the river is a mirror falling from the sky, and clouds form a mirage. The water in my hometown is reluctant to part with me, and Wan Li sent me boating not far away.
Step 3 take notes
Jingmen: Shanming is located on the south bank of the Yangtze River in the northwest of Yidu County, Hubei Province, facing Huya Mountain on the north bank. The terrain is dangerous and has been called the throat of Chu and Shu since ancient times.
Far: Far from it.
Chu State: The land of Chu State refers to the area around Hubei, which belonged to Chu State in the Spring and Autumn Period.
Ye Ping: Yuan Ye is both flat and vast.
Jiang: The Yangtze River.
Make an appreciative comment
"Sail to Jingmen Ferry, and soon you will be with people in the south" refers to this kind of intense tour. At this time, young poets were in high spirits, sitting on the boat and enjoying the towering mountains on both sides of Wushan. Along the way, the scenery in front of me gradually changed. After the ship passed Jingmen, it was already a plain wilderness with a broad horizon.
"The mountain stops at the plain and the river winds in the wilderness" describes the magnificent scenery of the ship crossing Jingmen into Chu, and describes the changes of the scenery from a flowing perspective. The terrain on both sides of the Jingmen River in Shu changed from mountain to plain, and the mountains disappeared from sight bit by bit. The mighty Yangtze River runs down the mountain to the vast Yuan Ye.
The poet used the word "Sui" to connect "mountain" with "wild" and the word "Ru" to connect "river" with "barren". In just ten words, he slowly presented the magnificent picture of rolling mountains, flat Yuan Ye, flowing Yangtze River and distant wasteland to the readers.
Reading the whole poem, we can deeply feel Li Bai, who is about to leave home and travel around the world, deeply attached to his hometown, and his lofty sentiments and expectations for his future life. At this time, Li Bai, in his prime, took this poem as a farewell to his hometown and embarked on a great and legendary life journey with full talent and ambition.
