Grandpa's great writer

Chapter 639 The Charm of Iambic Pentameter
Lu Lin divided the poem into four sections in the article, and then explained each section and sentence separately.

The first section describes the poet standing at the crossroads in the forest...

In the second stanza the poet chooses a path...

The third quarter began a difficult trek...

The fourth quarter, the poet wants to review the past...

"Although Zhang Chong's "The Road Not Taken" only wrote about his own choice, what he revealed was the major choice he faced on the road of life. He didn't bluntly say what the two roads represent, and he didn't tell everyone which There is a better way, and what he expounds is the choice itself. The poem describes a person who faces a choice and his mentality when making a choice..."

"Whether it is Chinese or foreign, images are an ancient form of artistic expression in poetry. The road is the final image of this poem. It is not only a specific road, but also a symbolic meaning of the road of life..."

Like a middle school teacher giving lectures to students, Lu Lin explained in detail the central idea of ​​the poem and the use of image art in front of the article.

In the second half, we will focus on explaining the language features of this poem.

"Metric and ending rhyme are the distinguishing features of poetry. This poem consists of four stanzas, each with five lines, and the dominant meter is iambic pentameter, on which the meter changes from time to time. Taking the first stanza as an example, The first trimeter of the second line is iambic, the fourth and fifth are iambic, the first and second of the third line are iambic, the trimeter is iambic, and the fourth and fifth are iambic. The repeated rhythm avoids the monotony of speech, adds wit and makes the poem full of rhythm."

"The end rhyme of the poem is abaab, cdccd, efeef, ghgghh. The alternate rhyme between different lines in the same stanza and the continuous change of rhyme between different stanzas make the perfect combination of stanza..."

Lu Lin's analysis is very detailed. He broke the whole poem into parts, disassembled it and assembled it again, almost covering every letter.

[Worshiping the Great God, when I saw this poem, I only thought it was very powerful, but I didn't expect it to be so powerful. 】

[It makes me feel so comfortable. 】

[Is it so difficult to understand a poem?I feel dizzy with such a detailed explanation. 】

【Master Lu and Zhang Zhong are both very powerful. 】

[Someone just said that this poem reads very ordinary, which made me angry, and I don’t know how to refute him. Next time I see such a person, I will send him this article. 】

[Is it so difficult to write a modern poem?I thought modern poetry was just writing sentences separately. 】

【Are you influenced by some "poets". 】

[I used to only know that Zhang Chong was good at English, but I didn't expect it to be this good. 】

……

Zhang Zhong didn't think so much when he read this poem during his speech.

In fact, it's not just him, maybe Robert didn't think so much when he wrote this poem.

When poets reach a certain state, various rhythms have become part of their bodies, and they often blurt out.

For example, those poets in ancient China, they usually wrote too many poems, even if they didn’t deliberately memorize the rhymes of Ping and Zhai, those rhymes will be engraved in their minds after a long time, and they will naturally jump out when they use them.

When great poets write poems, they may sometimes spend their minds refining their words and sentences, but most of the time it is a natural state.

That's why there is "articles are made naturally, and skillful hands can get them by chance".

In fact, where is "the article is made naturally", it is only the accumulation of time and experience, and finally there is a burst of inspiration at a certain moment.

This song "The Road Not Taken" also came out at the right time. At the beginning of July, it happened to be the time when Huaxia college graduates had just left school, and many of them were facing important choices in their lives.

When Wang Yu read this poem, he was browsing social software in the office.

When he graduated this year, his father helped him find a job in a local mixing plant. His job was very simple, just doing reports occasionally.

The mixing plant is only one kilometer away from home, and three meals are included. I work eight hours a day, but the real working time is probably only one or two hours.

The wages are not too low. In a small county like theirs, they can get more than 4000 yuan a month, which is more than many people. In addition, the mixing station also helps to pay five social insurances and one housing fund, which is still 2 to 8.

Many local people envy him that he can find such a comfortable job through his father's relationship.

But he himself was troubled.

Such a dawdling job is not what he wants.

And whenever he told his father that he wanted to venture out, his father would always "intimidate" him with various uncertain factors.

"It is difficult for college students to find a job now. Many jobs outside are either [-] or [-]. The consumption in big cities is high, and life pressure is high..."

When Wang Yu saw the song "The Road Not Taken", he fell into deep thought and thought about his future again.

Now there are two paths in front of him, one is to work in a mixing station with peace of mind, and when he is older, he can marry a wife and have children, and live a stable life.

On the other hand, if you give up your current stable life and go after what you want, you may end up with a bloody head.

He knew that he was luckier than most people, because he at least had a choice.

He also knows that, as the poem says, no matter which path he chooses, he will never regret it.

This afternoon, Wang Yufa was in a daze for a long time, and then he stayed up all night after returning home.

The next morning, he packed his bags and went to his father, saying he wanted to change jobs.

Just when his father was about to say those "threatening" words to him, Wang Yu said, "Dad, let me hit it, even if it might hurt my head, since I have chosen, I will definitely go on. I know I made a choice today, and I may never look back, but I will not regret it, I am an adult, I should choose my own path, and I will be responsible for my choice."

The father's "threat" did not come out in the end, but he just waved his hand at Wang Yu, "Go, remember what you said today, just don't regret it."

Wang Yu nodded heavily.

If he had heard his father tell him not to regret it before, he might have thought it was his father's angry words, but at this time he could feel the deep meaning of these words. hope.

When sending Wang Yu away, the father looked at his son's back and sighed slowly. This time he didn't stop Wang Yu again, because it was the first time that Wang Yu was able to discuss his pursuit with him calmly, instead of As impulsive as before, on a whim, relying only on enthusiasm, the son seems to have grown up a bit.

Maybe one day his son was bumped outside with blood on his head, and when he came back, as long as he didn't regret the choice he made at this time, all of this would be worth it.
