First, look at the background.
Combined with the background of notes, quickly grasp the main contents of poetry: for example, the 2008 college entrance examination poetry appreciation question-
Spring is something (1).
Light rain is looking forward to spring, and falling flowers are near dusk. The car dust can't reach the ground, and the door is full of birds singing.
[Note] ① Li Mi-xun (1085- 1 153), a native of Wuxian (now Suzhou, Jiangsu Province), has served as a Sheren official of Zhongshu and assistant minister of the household department. He was dismissed because he strongly opposed Qin Gui's surrender policy. (2) Layout: refers to the empty place at the door.
On this issue, the note (1) tells us that Li Mixun was "dismissed for trying to oppose Qin Gui's surrender policy"; The second question asks, "What kind of emotion does this poem express?" It is easy to interrupt when answering questions related to the background.
Second, look at the key language (title, ending poem, poetic eye).
The key language in ancient poetry, such as the title, ending verse and other words that indicate the eye of poetry, often directly reveals the information of the theme of poetry.
Third, look at the genre
If it is a narrative poem, we can start with the analysis of characters, then summarize the theme of the poem and appreciate the concise and vivid language of the poem.
If it is a philosophical poem, it is necessary to reveal the philosophy contained in the poem when summing up the theme, and analyze the expression method from the perspective of "supporting things and expressing aspirations". A thousand hammers hew out of the mountain, and the fire burns idle. Not afraid of broken bones, leaving innocence in the world. )
If it is a lyric poem, we can understand the feelings expressed by the poet from the scenery (specific nouns) written, and answer, "What is the benefit of writing like this?" , "What kind of artistic techniques are used", "Please enjoy this poem" and other issues, we should consider whether it is direct lyricism or indirect lyricism (borrowing things to express feelings and blending scenes).
Fourth, look at the technique.
