2. "Send Yuan Er Envoy to Anxi" - Wang Wei (Tang Dynasty)

3. "Yellow Crane Tower Sends Meng Haoran to Guangling"—— Li Bai (Tang Dynasty)

Translation:
My old friend waved goodbye to the Yellow Crane Tower, and went on a long trip to Yangzhou in March when catkins were like smoke and flowers were blooming.

4. "Quequatrains" - Du Fu (Tang Dynasty)

Two orioles sang gracefully among the green willow trees, and a neat group of egrets rushed straight into the blue sky.
I sit in front of the window and can see the snow that never melts all year round on the west ridge, and the ships that have traveled thousands of miles away from Soochow are moored in front of the door.
5. "Walking Alone by the River Looking for Flowers" (Choose one) - Du Fu (Tang Dynasty)

The lush flowers of Huang Si’s natal family cover the path, and thousands of flowers bend the branches low to the ground.
The colorful butterflies are always flying among the fragrant flowers, and the soft and free orioles are singing happily.

Spring flowers will bloom, and the birds will be free.

We are intoxicated and elegant in the spring breeze,
Midsummer night whispers,
< p>Listen to the autumn insects, which are gently there,whispering to welcome the snowflakes falling all over the ground.

Don't forget that in the lonely corner of the valley,

Don't be afraid of dangerous beaches and many bends,
There are many twists and turns.
