Qingming full text:
A drizzling rain falls like tears on the Mourning Day; The mourner's heart is going to break on his way.
Excuse me, where is the restaurant? The shepherd boy pointed to Xinghua Village.
Translation:
During the Qingming Festival in the south of the Yangtze River, the drizzle drifted one after another, and all the passengers on the road were down and out.
Where can local people buy wine to drown their sorrows? The shepherd boy just smiled and pointed to Xinghuashan Village.
This poem, written in the drizzle of a clear spring, has been widely read because of its light color and cold artistic conception. The first sentence explains the scene, environment and atmosphere; The second sentence describes the characters, expressing their grief, anger and confusion. The third sentence puts forward how to get rid of this mentality; The fourth sentence, writing answers with actions, is the highlight of the whole article.
The poem only wrote "pointing to Xinghua Village" and then came to an abrupt end, and there was no more word. The rest, how happy pedestrians are when they hear the news, how to take a step forward, how to find a hotel with excitement, how to get shelter from the rain and the satisfaction of sadness ..., these, the poet can "ignore".
He left all this to the reader's imagination, which opened up a much broader imagination space for the reader than the Chinese words in the poem showed. This is the "inexhaustible" art, and the whole poem adopts the method of rising from low to high, with the climax at the end, which is endless and intriguing.
