original work
Swallows have gone, and there is a time to come again; Willow withered, there is a time to green again; Peach blossoms have withered, but they will bloom again. But, smart, tell me, why are our days gone forever? Someone stole them: who is that? Where is it hidden? They escaped by themselves.-Where are they now?
I don't know how many days they gave me, but my hands are getting empty. Counting silently, more than 8,000 days have slipped away from me quietly, like a drop of water on the tip of a needle in the sea. My days are dripping in the stream of time, without sound or shadow. I can't help bursting into tears.
Go wherever you go, and come wherever you come; What's the hurry between going and coming? When I get up in the morning, two or three sunsets shoot into the hut. The sun has feet, and it has moved gently and quietly; I also follow the rotation blankly. So-when washing your hands, the days pass from the basin; When eating, the days pass from the rice bowl; When I was silent, I passed by my eyes. I think he is in a hurry. When I reached out to cover my arm, he passed by the covered hand again. When I was lying in bed at dark, he passed me and flew away from my feet. When I open my eyes and see the sun again, it will be a new day. I covered my face and sighed. But the shadow of the new day began to flash with a sigh.
What can I do in the days when I fly away, in the world of thousands of families? Only wandering, only running; In the rush of more than 8,000 days, what is left except wandering? The past days, like smoke, were scattered by the breeze, like fog, evaporated by Chu Yang; What traces did I leave? Did I leave traces like hairspring? I came into this world naked, and I will go back naked in the blink of an eye? But it can't be flat. Why did you come for nothing this time?
You are very clever. Tell me, why are our days gone forever?
Creation background
It was hastily written in March 1922, which coincided with the ebb tide of the May 4th Movement. At that time, the May 4th intellectuals were busy saving the country and pursuing progress. They were oppressed by the political environment at that time, but they did not stop pursuing progress; They are very upset and hesitant, but after calm meditation, they continue to catch up with the road of life. Zhu Ziqing was disappointed with the reality of the ebb tide of the May 4th Movement, but the author was not willing to sink in hesitation. Zhu Ziqing stood on the standpoint of "neutralization" and persistently explored and pursued it. The author thinks: "Every process of life has its own meaning and value-every moment has its meaning and value! Every moment has its considerable position in continuous time. " (Zhu Ziqing's "Letter to Yu Pingbo") Zhu Ziqing inspires his heart by spring scenery and releases beauty by imagination.

theme
In a hurry shows the young intellectuals' exploration of the future. As a petty-bourgeois intellectual, the author feels the pulse of the times. Zhu Ziqing's heart is full of confusion that he can't find a way out. [4] What the author reveals is not only personal helplessness, but also the mood of some young people who love life and pursue progress at that time, but they are not without confusion and depression. However, Zhu Ziqing is not willing to sink in hesitation, and the author stands on his own "neutrality" position and pursues it persistently. Although the society at that time was riddled with holes, he persisted in his way of life after ideological struggle. Maybe there is not necessarily light ahead, but he is determined not to stay in the darkness of reality. In the society at that time, how many young intellectuals, like the author, persisted in the pursuit of light and hope, bravely hurried forward on the road of life, leaving a hasty figure.

The rhythm of hurry is beautiful
1, diversified forms reflect the beauty of rhythm.
Embody the rhythm in urgency. The urgency here mainly comes from the intonation and speed of the author's narration. Urgent as volcanic eruption, such as storm, flying stars and lightning, slow as spring breeze and drizzle, such as mountain stream and running water. Hurriedly begins with a series of parallelism, followed by four valve sentences. Form an urgent trend to express the author's confused, confused and distressed psychological state. The second paragraph says, "I don't know how many days they gave me, but my hands are really getting empty." In a calm and even decadent tone, lower the fast pace of the first paragraph and turn it into a self-psychological statement. The third paragraph continues the description of the second paragraph, and continues to describe in detail the time that the author feels fleeting. The fourth paragraph returns to the rhythm of the first paragraph, reflecting the author's anxiety and questioning of life with six questions. At the end of the article, "You are very clever. Tell me, why are our days gone forever?" It is also a question, but it seems sad and indifferent, like a light leaf falling on the reader's mind, lingering for a long time. It is this change of "urgency-slowness-urgency-slowness" that gives the full text fresh life and makes the author's emotions and feelings more infectious.
The ups and downs of "Hurry" are also clearly reflected in its series of progressive questions. This is true of the first and sixth paragraphs. Take the sixth paragraph as an example: "What can I do in the world of thousands of families in the days when I escape like a fly?" Just hanging out. Only in a hurry; In the rush of more than 8,000 days, what is left except wandering? The past days, like smoke, were scattered by the breeze, like fog, evaporated by Chu Yang: What traces did I leave? Did I leave traces like hairspring? I came into this world naked, and I will go back naked in the blink of an eye? But small can be flat, why do you have to go by yourself? Every question contains an answer to the previous question. When these answers settle down a little, the author designs the next chase, right here.
The style of Rush is a kind of self-narration, as if the author's self-talk is straightforward and simple. Some metaphors and anthropomorphic descriptions are interspersed among them, which adds a unique feeling to the article and forms the rhythm change of the content. For example, in the third paragraph, "The sun has feet, and it moves quietly: I am also following it blankly." So-when washing your hands, the days pass by the basin; When eating, the days pass by the rice bowl; When you are silent, the days pass before your eyes. I feel that he left in a hurry. When he reached out to cover his arm, he passed by the covered hand again. When it was dark, I was lying in bed, and he crossed me smartly. Fly away from my feet. "The author personifies the sun, and there is a sense of humor and helplessness in pure sadness, which injects some fresh life into the melancholy and ethereal tone of the article, and the disappearance of this life brings more sadness.
2. Prose language contains rhythmic beauty.
The contrast in Haste forms an organic whole with the help of unity in contradiction or simple connection in complexity. This usage implies a contradiction in unity. Can enhance the sense of harmony, so that the impression of changing combinations arises spontaneously. For example, "the swallow has gone, and there is time to come again; Willow withered, there is a time to green again; The peach blossoms are withered, but they bloom again. " Go forward, go forward; What's the hurry between going and coming? The contradiction between Du Fu and "coming" is in sharp contrast, which enhances the sense of coordination of the content of the article and forms a rhythmic beauty on syllables.
Coherent parallelism gives people great power with its momentum, permeates people's hearts, makes people happy in language, and produces profound rhythmic beauty in successive parallelism. The first classic parallelism in "Hurry", the third paragraph "When washing your hands, the days pass from the basin; When eating, the days pass from the rice bowl: when you are silent, you pass from your eyes. " They all use neat sentence structures, giving people a feeling of harmonious rhythm changes. Continuous repetition is also an artistic means. By using the same sentence repeatedly, the language has a distinct sense of rhythm. This sense of rhythm not only embodies strong, profound and exciting emotions, but also has a continuous undulating rhythm. So it can have a strong appeal.
The application of "repetition" in Haste, such as: "My days are dripping in the stream of time, with no sound or shadow" and "Days are passing in the basin? What can I do if my life passes through my rice bowl, before my eyes, by my hand, and by me smartly? What traces did it leave? In these constant repetitions. The rhythm of language is not only the feeling brought by the repetition of sound, but also arouses people's feelings about words, thoughts, actions and beauty, thus generating artistic power.
