For a person who is used to living in Beiping, it is a miracle that it doesn't blow in winter. There is no wind in winter in Jinan. For a person who has just returned from London, it is strange that I can't see the sun in winter; Jinan is sunny in winter. Naturally, in tropical places, the sun is always so poisonous, so loud and a little scary. However, in winter in the north of China, Jinan is really a treasure house with warm and sunny weather.
If there is only sunshine, it is not surprising. Please close your eyes and think about it: an ancient city with mountains and water is basking in the sun, sleeping warmly and comfortably, just waiting for the spring breeze to wake them up. Is this an ideal realm? The mountain completely surrounds Jinan, except for the lack of some food in the north. This circle of hills is particularly lovely in winter, as if Jinan were put in a small cradle. They whispered, "Don't worry, it will be warm here." Really, people in Jinan laugh in winter. As soon as they saw those hills, they felt that they had landed and leaned over. When they saw the mountains from the sky, they unconsciously thought, "Tomorrow may be spring, right? With such warmth, the grass may turn green tonight? " Even this fantasy can't be realized for a while, and they are in no hurry, because in this charity winter, why do they want anything else?
Best of all, it snowed a little. You see, the dwarf pine on the mountain is getting darker and darker, and there is a bun of white flowers on the top of the tree, like a Japanese wet nurse. The top of the mountain is all white, and there is a silver edge on the blue sky. On the hillside, there is thick snow in some places, and grass color in some places. In this way, one is white, the other is dark yellow, and the mountain is covered with a floral dress with water patterns; Looking at it, this floral dress seems to be blown by the wind, which makes you want to see more beautiful goatskin. When the sun goes down, the yellowish sunshine is obliquely sprinkled on the hillside, and the Bo Xue seems to suddenly blush with shame, showing a little pink. It's just a light snow. Jinan can't stand heavy snow. Those hills are so fragile!
Ancient Jinan, the city is so narrow and spacious. There are some small villages lying on the hillside, and there is some snow on the roofs of the small villages. Yes, this is a small ink painting, probably painted by a famous painter in the Tang Dynasty.
What about water? It did not freeze, but steamed on the green duckweed. Seaweed is really green, and all the green stored all the year round is taken out. The clearer the sky, the greener the algae. With these green spirits, the water can't bear to freeze, and those weeping willows with long branches will take a picture in the water! Look, slowly rising from the clear river, the sky, mid-air and sky are so clear and blue from top to bottom, and the whole is an ethereal blue crystal. In this crystal, there are red roofs and yellow grass hills, like the gray shadows of small flowers on the carpet. This is Jinan in winter.

Writing method
Rhetoric art
In the article "Winter in Jinan", the use of figures of speech is not only large in quantity, but also high in quality, achieving the perfect unity of quality and quantity. The full text has 800 words, five natural paragraphs and only more than 20 sentences. Based on the author's limited level, nearly 20 kinds of metaphors, metaphors, intricacies and puns are sorted out, and many uncommon figures of speech are also widely used in the article, such as translation, presentation and repetition.
In order to pursue the high quality of figures of speech, the author not only mixes several figures of speech together, but also uses different compartments of figures of speech, which makes people feel the high quality of their figures of speech.
Metaphor is a common rhetorical device in literary creation. In the article Winter in Jinan, in order to add color to the article and make the things described more vivid, the author not only uses a single metaphor, but also uses several small forms. For example:
This circle of hills is particularly lovely in winter, as if Jinan were put in a small cradle.
(2) The dwarf pine on the mountain is getting darker and darker, and there is a bun of white flowers on the top of the tree, like a Japanese wet nurse.
(3) Look, look up slowly from the clarified river. The sky, mid-air and sky are so clear and blue from top to bottom, and the whole is an ethereal blue crystal.
The "Little Cradle" in 1 describes the hill as kindly and considerate as the mother, reminding people of the peaceful mode of her mother singing a lullaby at the cradle, and tells the geographical location of Jinan warmly and affectionately.
(2) Using "Japanese wet nurse" to describe the scene of dwarf pine standing against the snow vividly shows the fresh and lovely shape of dwarf pine after snow, which not only makes dwarf pine full of vitality, but also makes people feel novel and unique.
Using the metaphor of "yes", the clarity of the whole space from the sky to the water surface is linked with the metaphor of "ethereal blue crystal", and the clarity of space is compared to "ethereal blue crystal", which turns abstraction into concrete and gives people a sense of image. This sentence also uses rhetoric. The use of description can enhance the vividness and vividness of narrative, and make readers feel immersive, such as hearing its sound and seeing its shape. This sentence uses "blue" to describe the clear river and blue sky in Jinan in winter, which makes people feel immersive. From water to air, from clear rivers and green algae to clear space. This sentence also uses reduplication. Overlap is a descriptive literary rhetoric, which can arouse readers' reverie and add visual images. The overlapping of "air", "mid-air" and "sky" presents a unique picture to arouse readers' experience and make them feel immersive.
(4) On the hillside, the snow is thick in some places, and the grass color is still exposed in some places; In this way, one is white and the other is dark yellow, and the mountain is covered with a floral dress with water patterns.
Example 4 describes the yellow and white beauty on the hillside after the uneven distribution of snow with "flowered clothes with water lines", which is full of layered beauty, so that the vast scenery on the hillside is subtle and sensible, not out of reach.
⑤ In this crystal, there are red roofs and yellow grass mounds, like small gray shadows of flowers on the carpet.
Metonymy is a variant of metaphor, which uses ontology and vehicle upside down. Case ⑤ In the form of metonymy, the tree shadow is compared to "a small flower on the carpet", and it is associated with "a small gray tree shadow" in front of you to "a small flower on the carpet hill", which is novel in form and appropriate in metaphor.
The so-called intricate figure of speech is a rhetorical method that deliberately writes irregularly and neatly in order to avoid the dullness and monotony of language, make the language vivid and changeable, and express what could have been repeated neatly and symmetrically. There are three forms of complexity: complex words, complex sentences and complex tones. In the article Winter in Jinan, the author has used all three forms. For example, in the first paragraph of the article, the word intricacy is used, and the word "miracle" is replaced by "strange things" to avoid the repetition of words.
It's just a light snow. Jinan can't stand heavy snow. Those hills are so fragile!
This example uses a very complicated sentence pattern, which could have been written in the same format: "Can't stand the heavy snow in Jinan", which has formed a unified format with the previous one, but the author changed it in order to avoid rigidity and let his feelings show naturally.
They are in no hurry, because there is such a charity winter, why do they want anything else!
In this example, the tone is complex. The first sentence "don't worry" is declarative, and the second sentence is still declarative. However, the author naturally changed it into rhetorical mood, and skillfully used declarative mood and rhetorical mood, which made the language of the article neat and changeable, strengthened the tone and highlighted the emotion.
The use of several small lattice transformations makes the article lively and avoids rigidity. Each figure of speech is not only reasonable, but also of high quality.
Winter in Jinan is a lyric essay describing the scenery. In the article, the author skillfully uses figures of speech to perfectly show the different forms of winter in Jinan from different angles.
This article uses a lot of metaphors to highlight the characteristics of the scenery.
Please close your eyes and think about it: is it an ideal state that an ancient city with mountains and water is basking in the sun and sleeping peacefully, just waiting for the spring breeze to wake them up?
In the above example, the author skillfully uses anthropomorphic rhetoric to describe the posture of the scene in detail: "Sun" describes the leisurely posture of the old city of Jinan, like a quiet and peaceful old man who is uncontested; A "sleep" further deepened the leisure of the old city. Use the two verbs together to imitate the leisurely posture of the old city naturally and appropriately. In this sentence, rhetorical questions are used. Rhetorical question is also a common rhetorical way, which can strengthen mood and enhance the appeal and expressiveness of language. In the tone of discussion, this sentence makes people feel more cordial, as if talking face to face with readers, and as if asking for advice, but the answer is self-evident, full of the author's deep love and praise for Jinan winter. The author uses rhetorical questions instead of general declarative sentences, which enhances the tone and makes the feelings fully expressed. There is also an overlapping figure of speech in this sentence, which leads the reader into the realm described by the author with the overlap of "an ancient city", "mountain" and "water" The author looks down from above and outlines the panorama of Jinan in winter in the sun.
