"Spring" is a work by the modern essayist Zhu Ziqing. The "Hymn of Spring", which is "full of poetic flavor", is actually full of the writer's thoughts and emotions, pursuit of life and personality in a specific period, and reflects the traditional cultural accumulation in the writer's bones and his yearning for a free realm.
"Spring"
Looking forward, looking forward, the east wind is coming, and the footsteps of spring are approaching.
Everything was like waking up from sleep, and Xinxinran opened his eyes. The mountains are moist, the water is growing, and the sun is blushing.
The grass secretly emerged from the soil, tender and green. In the garden and in the fields, you can see that there are large areas full of them. Sit down, lie down, roll a few times, kick a few balls, race a few times, play hide-and-seek a few times. The wind is gentle and the grass is soft.
Peach trees, apricot trees, and pear trees, if you don’t let me, and I won’t let you, they are all full of flowers. The red ones are like fire, the pink ones are like clouds, and the white ones are like snow. There is a sweetness in the flowers. When you close your eyes, the trees seem to be full of peaches, apricots and pears. Thousands of bees were buzzing under the flowers, and butterflies of all sizes were flying around. Wild flowers are everywhere: various kinds, with names and without names, scattered among the flowers, like eyes, like stars, and they are blinking.
"The willow wind does not blow cold on your face", not bad, like a mother's hand caressing you. The wind brought the smell of newly turned soil, mixed with the smell of grass, and the fragrance of various flowers, all brewing in the slightly moist air. The birds settled their nests among the flowers and leaves, became happy, and showed off their clear throats to their friends, singing melodious tunes that matched the gentle breeze and flowing water. The piccolo played by the shepherd boy on the cow's back was also ringing loudly all day long.
Rain is the most common, lasting for three or two days at a time. Don't be upset. Look, it looks like cow hair, like flower needles, like filaments, densely woven diagonally, and there is a thin layer of smoke on the roof of the house. The leaves of the trees are so green that they shine brightly, and the grass is so green that it irritates your eyes. In the evening, the lights were turned on, and a little yellow light highlighted the quiet and peaceful night. In the countryside, on the small roads and by the stone bridges, there are people holding umbrellas and walking slowly; there are also farmers working in the fields, wearing straw hats and hats. Their thatched cottages were sparse and silent in the rain.
There are gradually more kites in the sky and more children on the ground. In the city and in the countryside, every household, old and young, came out one by one, as if they were rushing to go. Rejuvenate your muscles and bones, rouse yourself, and each do his or her own thing. "A year's plan lies in spring." At the beginning, there is plenty of time and plenty of hope.
Spring is like a baby that just landed, it is new from head to toe and it is growing.
Spring is like a little girl, full of flowers, smiling and walking.
Spring is like a strong young man, with iron-like arms, waist and feet. He leads us forward.
Appreciation:
"Spring" is a famous masterpiece in Zhu Ziqing's prose, but it was not included in Mr. Zhu's collection of prose during the author's lifetime. According to Comrade Chen Jie's research, "Spring" was first published in the first volume of "Junior Chinese Reader" compiled by Zhu Wenshu. The book was published by Shanghai Zhonghua Book Company in July 1933. Chen said: "There is a mark in the upper right corner of the title. The editor added a note after the text table of contents that all the works with this mark are specially written works. It can be seen that the editor of "Reader" specially asked Mr. Zhu and others to write it for middle school students. Articles about reading. "("About the Origin of "Spring"", "Journal of Linyi Normal University", Issue 2, 1983) "Spring" was not only included in middle school Chinese textbooks before liberation, but also edited by the People's Education Press in 1981. It was also included in the first volume of "Chinese Language" compiled by the editor. However, the latter felt that some vocabulary in the original work was "outdated" and some sentences were not "standardized" enough, so they "processed and polished" it. In this way, the text will be different from the original work. In order to respect the original appearance of Zhu Ziqing's works, the object of this article is the unmodified text written by Mr. Zhu.
"Spring" is a prose full of poetic flavor. It uses a poetic style to describe the unique spring scenery in southern my country: green grass, flowers and trees in bloom, spring breeze, continuous drizzle, showing a sense of vitality and vitality; people in the spring environment are also full of energy and hard work. Work, full of hope.
"Spring" is a picture of beautiful spring scenery,
"Spring" is an ode to youth.
The beginning of the work reads: "Looking forward, looking forward, the east wind is coming, the footsteps of spring are approaching." The two words "looking forward to" overlap, strengthening people's expectations for spring. "The footsteps of spring are near" also personify spring, as if spring is coming towards us in big strides. Look: "Everything looks like I just woke up, and I opened my eyes happily. The mountains are brighter, the water is growing, and the sun's face is blushing." The author first describes the spring scene from a general aspect and outlines the earth The scene of rejuvenation and the revival of all things.
Then, the author introduces five close-up shots to depict the moving scene of spring in detail.
The first close-up shot is of spring grass: "The grass secretly emerges from the soil, tender and green." The author not only wrote about the tender green and softness of spring grass, but also photographed it. Its allure to people: people "sit, lie down, roll around, kick a few balls, race a few times, and hide and seek a few times on the grass." The greenery here is no longer a simple natural scenery. , and become the dear companions of people's lives - the scenery becomes a love object.
The second close-up shot is of flowers and trees competing for glory: "Peach trees, apricot trees, and pear trees, if you don't let me, I won't let you, they are all full of flowers. They are as red as fire." , pink like clouds, white like snow. "Not only the flowers of the fruit trees are competing for beauty, but also the wild flowers are everywhere, colorful. The flowers also attract countless bees to "buzz" with their unique color and fragrance, and butterflies of all sizes dance gracefully. These descriptions vividly reflect the spring atmosphere. The author is not satisfied with reproducing natural flower colors, but also deliberately uses the wings of imagination to write: the flowers of fruit trees "have a sweet taste, and when you close your eyes, the trees seem to be full of peaches, apricots, and pears." The imagination not only broadens It not only enhances the descriptive vision, but also exaggerates the loveliness of spring flowers from the perspective of the future.
The third close-up is the spring breeze. Compared with spring flowers, spring breeze is not easy to describe. When Zhu Ziqing wrote about the spring breeze, he mainly captured two points. One is the softness of the spring breeze, and the other is its function of transmitting sound and smell. The author first used a poem by monk Zhinan of the Southern Song Dynasty to describe the warmth and gentleness of the spring breeze. He was afraid that readers would not understand it easily, so he immediately wrote a line that everyone can understand: "Like a mother's Hands caressing you”. "The wind brings the smell of newly turned soil, mixed with the smell of green grass, and the fragrance of various flowers, all brewing in the slightly moist air." The author writes about spring breeze from the perspective of conveying flavor, which not only strengthens the atmosphere of spring, but also naturally connects this paragraph with the description of grass and flowers in the previous two paragraphs. The spring breeze also sends the singing of spring birds and the sound of shepherd boys' flutes into people's eardrums, "in harmony with the gentle breeze and flowing water." The author describes the spring breeze from many aspects, making this thing that is not easy to express vividly.
The fourth close-up shot is of spring rain. Zhu Ziqing wrote about the continuous spring rain in the south: "Look, it looks like cow hair, like flower needles, like filaments, densely woven diagonally, and a thin layer of smoke is covered on the roof of the house." This kind of rain makes the leaves of the trees "very green." It shines brightly, and the grass is so green that it hurts your eyes." On a rainy night, a little yellowish light "creates a quiet and peaceful night." During the day, "the farmers working in the fields are wearing raincoats and hats" - this is like a picture of farming in the spring rain.
The fifth close-up shot is the activities of people in the spring environment. The first four pictures mainly depict natural scenery, while this picture highlights people's deeds: "In the city and countryside, every household, old and young, they are all rushing out. They all come out. Relax and rejuvenate their muscles and bones, Cheer up and do your part." In spring, flowers bloom in a hurry; people go out of their homes to welcome the spring "as if they are rushing". In spring, flowers compete for glory, and people do not give in to each other; people "plan for the year in spring" and also devote themselves to work with the spirit of seizing the day.
