Zheng Chouyu, formerly known as Zheng Wentao, was born in Jinan, Shandong in 1933. As a child, he traveled all over the country with his father. In 1949, he went to Taiwan with his family. He began to publish works in 1951. In 1968, he went to the United States to study in the International Writing Class of the University of Iowa and received a master's degree in art. Since then he has remained silent and rarely published works. He came out again around 1973. "The sword is still young" and he works hard. His representative works include "The Mistake" and "The Sailor's Knife". Most of them use travelers as the lyrical protagonists, and he is known as the "prodigal poet". Now living in the United States, he is a member of the "Modern Poetry Society" and a professor of East Asian Literature at Yale University.
"Speaking of Rain" was written in 1979 after his comeback. Although the poet was in the United States at this time, he was concerned about his motherland and paid full attention to the growth of children in his motherland. With novel and vivid imagery and smart and passionate language, the poem expresses a deep love for children and expresses sincere blessings for the future of the motherland. The poet grew up under artillery fire. He has deeply experienced the suffering of war and the bitterness of wandering. Therefore, he cherishes the innocence of childhood and is better able to understand the meaning of "care" to childhood. "Rain" in the poem has become the messenger of gentle and kind love, embodying the poet's sincere hope.

2. Specific study.
(1) Play the sample reading tape (with music), ask students to find the image words that they feel most deeply, and draw the verses where these images are located into a picture through association and imagination.
Image words such as: rain, fields, pastures, fish ponds, streams, thunder and lightning, wind, doors, windows, curtains, coir raincoats, bamboo hats, wicker, stone lions, little swallows, flags, you, etc.
Picture description (such as the fifth section): In the pattering spring rain, the footprints of children playing on the fertile soil of the field are clearly visible, the new seedlings on the pasture are sprouting, and the fish in the pond are Lively and dancing, and streams singing songs...
(2) Free chanting, asking students to combine their own imaginary pictures, add appropriate rhetorical elements in front of "rain", and think about the poet's wish for "rain" "What kind of connotation.
Clearly: the spring rain that the earth longs for; the kind, tender and loving spring rain; the spring rain that plays with children; the spring rain that smiles bravely...
Rain, nourishes the earth, sows hope. , she brings vitality and vitality to nature, she is the source of life. The whole poem captures the characteristics of "rain" and praises the eternal love in the world, so "rain" becomes the footsteps of spring and the messenger of love. She brings laughter to children and hope to the world.

(4) Read verses 7 and 8 together and taste the “laughter” in them.
Clearly: In the seventh stanza, the poet uses natural spirits such as wickers, stone lions, and swallows to capture their vivid moments and express his praise for bravery, optimism, and self-confidence. In the eighth section, two high-spirited antitheses are used to push the emotion to a climax: "As long as the flag smiles, there is hope for spring/As long as you smile, there is hope for the earth." Only with love can there be brave laughter, and only with brave laughter can there be hope. "Laughter" reflects the poet's optimistic and positive attitude towards life.
3. Appreciate taste.
(1) Delicate and delicate brushstrokes
“My love weaves the world together like silk threads.”
Appreciation: “Love” points out "Rain" refers to, and "Silk" vividly depicts the fineness and softness of love. "Heaven and Earth" includes fields, pastures, mountain peaks, white clouds, etc., which expresses the breadth and depth of love, selflessness and broadness, which makes people read It's like spring rain afterwards. Putting such a rich and profound connotation into an apt metaphor, the whole realm is revealed.
"One day, you are eating apples and wiping your mouths/The sweetness in your mouths is my blessing."
Appreciation: Capturing the scene of children eating apples The details capture the "sweetness" with rich connotations and turn them into "blessings". Although the chapter shows the intention, it does not reveal the expression, which embodies the implicit beauty of traditional Chinese poetry and the free style of new poetry.
(2) The artistic technique of personification
The poet gives "Rain" human thoughts and behaviors. Sometimes she "whispers", sometimes cheers, and sometimes "visits" The earth "gets close" to the child for a while. Her figure is everywhere in fields, pastures, mountains, and clouds. She is both kind and vivid. The aura exuding from her body and the true feelings she shows make people feel a strong connection with her. *Ming?
