A thousand miles into a river is like training: describe the Yangtze River as a long white silk.

Gui Zhi Xiang Jin Ling Nostalgia —— Wang Anshi in Northern Song Dynasty

It was late autumn in the old country and the weather was early. Thousands of miles into a river like practice, such as clusters of green peaks. Return to the sail and go to the setting sun, with the west wind on your back and the wine flag tilted. The colorful boat is cloudy, and the Milky Way heron rises, making it difficult to draw.

Miss the past, compete in prosperity, sigh the building outside the door, and sorrow and hate continue. Through the ages, depending on the high, it is a shame. The past events of the Six Dynasties follow the flowing water, but the cold smoke decays and the grass turns green. Up to now, business women still sing from time to time, leaving a legacy in the backyard.

Vernacular translation:

Boarding the tower of Jinling City, I can see it from afar. It is late autumn, and the weather has begun to get cold and cold. Thousands of miles of the Yangtze River is clear and blue, like a white ribbon, winding down. There are emerald peaks on both sides, clustered together.

A sailboat set sail for the bloody setting sun. The west wind blew behind him, rolling up the wine in the first floor. Colorful original boats, shuttling on the light clouds; Egrets on earth are flying above the Milky Way.

Such a beautiful scene, even with the wonderful pen of Dan Qing, is hard to describe. Looking back on the past of the Six Dynasties, the powerful people lived a luxurious life here. Everyone is competing for wealth, and they are not aware of the crisis.

Alas, once the country was destroyed, the strong enemy outside the door was approaching, and the king at the top of the building was still greedy for beauty. Tragedy has been repeated for generations. There are countless people who came to this place to pay their respects.

The past and the future all follow the flowing water, leaving only cold smoke and lush grass color in front of us. But today, people still can't learn the lesson. I don't believe you, the merchant girl is still singing "backyard flower" of national subjugation.

Appreciation:

The first half of this word implies that there was a crisis in the Northern Song Dynasty by describing the scenery. On the surface, what we see is that the author's pen is a very beautiful picture of the mountains and rivers.

Ascending to the distance, the goal is "a thousand miles into a river like training." The river is like a white ribbon, while the mountains on the shore are emerald green. What a beautiful picture!

However, when the poet came to the scene, it was meaningful. Autumn is a cold season, and it is winter after late autumn, but now I can feel the cold of early winter.

It is through this description that the author implies that the great crisis of the Northern Song Dynasty is coming soon. The word "sail to the setting sun" means that there is a ship, which is moving forward. And the direction it travels is the direction of the sunset.
