Translation When I woke up in the morning and opened the door, I saw that the top of the mountain was covered by a heavy snowfall. At this time, the sky has cleared up, and the light of the rising sun has become colder through the light white clouds. The snow on the eaves has not yet begun to melt, and the plum blossom branches in the courtyard are still frozen by ice and snow. How unusual is such a cold and lonely atmosphere!

Notes 1 This is a poem that expresses life experience. 2 This sentence means that the snow on the house has not melted, and the courtyard has not been opened due to the cold. 3 Qinggu: desolate and lonely 4 Idle leisure: ordinary, ordinary. Appreciation of "After Snow in the Mountains"

"After Snow in the Mountains" depicts a snowy scene in the mountains in winter. In the early morning, the poet opened the door. It was cold and snowy outside, and the sun that had just risen seemed lifeless. In the yard, the long icicles under the eaves showed no sign of melting, and the plum blossoms in the corner seemed to be frozen, showing no signs of blooming.

The first two sentences of the poem describe a scene in the early morning, after snow, the earth is covered with snow, the sun rises in the east, and the clouds are faint (describe the scene); it is clear after the snow, and the weather is cold and freezing (point to the atmosphere) picture. "The plum blossom jelly is not dripping from the eaves, a kind of loneliness is not leisurely" uses the technique of contrasting (Ming technique). "The eaves are not dripping" and "plum blossom jelly" highlights the cold weather, while "the loneliness is not leisurely" highlights the coldness of the weather. The strong and unyielding character of the plum blossoms (drawing the scene), and the author expressing his ambition through the object, implicitly express the author's noble and tenacious character and self-sufficient quality (analyzing the emotions).

In this poem, Zheng Banqiao writes about the desolation deep in his heart from the cold after heavy snowfall.
