So, what kind of work is a farewell to Cambridge? Cambridge refers to Cambridge University, and the author Mr. Xu Zhimo studied in this famous university during the two years of 1920- 1922. Here, it can be said that his interest in this life has been laid, and his planning for the future has opened up his thinking, which is a turning point in his life. The full text of the poem is as follows: I left gently, just as I came gently; I waved my hand gently and bid farewell to the clouds in the western sky. The golden willow by the river is the bride in the sunset; Beautiful shadows in the waves ripple in my heart. Green grass on the soft mud, oily, swaying at the bottom of the water; In the gentle waves of He Kanghe, I would like to be an aquatic plant! That pool under the shade of elm is not a clear spring, but a rainbow in the sky; Crushed in floating seaweed, a rainbow-like dream is precipitated. Looking for dreams? Support a long pole and swim back to a greener place on the grass; Full of starlight, singing in the splendor of starlight. But I can't play the piano, just a farewell flute; Summer insects are also silent for me, silence is Cambridge tonight! I left quietly, just as I came quietly; I waved my sleeve without taking away a cloud. ? It is not difficult to see that Xu Zhimo, who wrote this poem, is full of reluctance and nostalgia for Cambridge. At that time, he went to England alone to meet his old friends, but unexpectedly, none of them were there, only Cambridge had been with him.
Farewell to Cambridge is a unique but catchy novel, which skillfully combines the atmosphere at that time, my feelings and what I saw. This is a rare masterpiece in the history of China literature.
