In the evening, the setting sun is about to set, and it is gently scattered on the river. The river looks bright red under the setting sun, but the green waves are rolling on it.

Appreciation of Ode to Mujiang
First, appreciation of "a setting sun sprinkled in the water, half the river rustling and half the river red"
Write about the river in the sunset. "A sunset is spreading in the water". The sunset shines on the river, but it means "spreading" instead of "taking pictures". This is because the "sunset" is very close to the horizon, almost touching the ground, and it really looks like it is "paved" on the river. The word "shop" also appears euphemistic and gentle, describing the unique softness of the autumn sunset, giving people a cordial and leisurely feeling.
"Half the river is rustling, half the river is red", the weather is clear and windless, the river flows slowly, and there are tiny ripples on the river. The part that receives more light shows "red"; Where there is little light, there is dark blue. The poet grasped the two colors on the river, but showed the scene that the river was sparkling at dusk and the color changed rapidly in the sunset.
2. Appreciation of "September is poor in the middle of the night, dew is like a real pearl, and the moon is like a bow"
Poor Night in September is a transition. Poor, lovely. The third day of September is the lunar calendar, which means entering late autumn. What a beautiful night in late autumn! The first two sentences describe the scene at sunset, which naturally transitions the time from sunset to night. Seemingly casual writing is actually very important, so that readers can clearly feel that time is passing and continue to look at the pictures behind.
Dewdrops are like pearls, and the moon is like a bow. Dewdrops are as bright as beads, and the meniscus is like a bow. In autumn, when night falls on the river, the air is moist, and dew condenses on the vegetation, "like pearls", writing the characteristics of autumn leaves. On the third day of September, the moon just appeared, and it was still a crescent moon, so it was like a bow. "The moon is like a bow", further pointing out the autumn night at the beginning of the month.
The poem describes the dew and the new moon in the autumn night, and depicts the charming scene of the late autumn moonlight night with two novel and appropriate metaphors.
