Chapter 255 Chinese Class
After listening, Tang Su wrote five images on a piece of paper: mountains and forests, springs, temples, sunlight, and flowers and birds.
After finishing writing, Tang Su looked at what his deskmate had written and found that what he wrote was: secluded valley, stone steps, monks, white clouds, and flowing water.
What she wrote is quite similar to what He Chaoming wrote.
After a while, Teacher Liu played the introduction of this song. The name of the song is "Clouds and Water Zen Heart". It is a Buddhist music that cleanses the soul and describes a leisurely, detached and peaceful state of mind.
Teacher Liu: "Okay, now please think of landscape, pastoral or hermit poems related to the images summarized in the song. Starting from the first group, number 5 in each group will take turns to answer."
Tang Su frowned. She was No. 5, so she quickly thought about the landscape, pastoral and hermit poems she had learned.
Group 1, No. 5, stood up. She answered:
"Wang Wei's "Autumn Night in the Mountain": After the rain in the empty mountain, the weather turns to autumn late, the bright moon shines among the pines, and the clear spring flows over the rocks..."
Teacher Liu: "Okay, next one..."
"Tao Yuanming's "Drinking": Picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence, leisurely seeing the southern mountains, the mountain air is beautiful at dusk, and the flying birds are flying back and forth..."
Teacher Liu: "Correct, next one..."
"Li Bai's "Sitting Alone on Jingting Mountain": All the birds have flown high, and the lone cloud has drifted away leisurely. The only thing I never tire of looking at is Jingting Mountain."
Teacher Liu: "Next..."
Soon it was Tang Su's turn. Tang Su stood up. Six students in front of him had already answered. They had almost finished reciting all the landscape and pastoral poems they had learned.
She then had to think of something else.
Yes, she memorized a poem from the morning reading materials two days ago, which was also a landscape and pastoral poem.
Tang Su then replied: "Meng Haoran's "Woodcutting": Woodcutters go deep into the mountains, the mountains are deep and the trees are overlapping. The bridge collapsed and the rafts were piled up, the road was dangerous and the vines were hanging. The sun was setting and the mountain wind was blowing the vine clothes. I sang a long song carrying a light stick, and watched the smoke return in the plain."
After Tang Su finished answering, Teacher Liu paused. She didn't say the correct answer, nor did she say the next one. Instead, she looked at Tang Su with a puzzled look.
The other students in Class 5 also looked at Tang Su in surprise. They thought that Tang Su might have just found it from some extracurricular material.
The poem that Tang Su recited seemed to be a pastoral poem that met the requirements, but they didn't seem to have learned it.
Teacher Liu smiled, waved her hand and said, "Very good, the answer is correct. Please sit down." Teacher Liu believed that Tang Su had memorized it by himself.
Tang Su sat down amid everyone's puzzled gazes.
During this period of time, she read the contents of the morning reading materials. She had already memorized all the ancient poems and essays required to be memorized in the textbooks, including those she owed from last semester.
The teacher returned to the topic only after the poetry chain was over.
What they are going to learn in this class is the appreciation of poetry - landscape and pastoral poetry.
In the past two weeks, the Chinese class of their Class 5 has been about poetry appreciation. Last week, they were appreciating farewell poems and frontier poems, and this week they changed the topic.
As for the lessons in the textbooks, they have already finished learning them.
Just like last semester, after finishing the texts in the textbooks, the Chinese class will have other contents. Last semester, they learned the basic knowledge of Chinese, including the correction of incorrect sentences, rhetoric, grammar knowledge, etc. This semester, it seems that the arrangement is poetry appreciation and beautiful essay appreciation.
Tang Su was a little depressed because there were too few composition classes, so she thought it would be best to take two months of composition classes to see if her writing skills could improve.
However, the order and content of teaching are arranged by the grade group, and even the Chinese teacher is powerless to change it.
After class, Tang Su took out his copy of Xue Yao's Chinese notes.
There is a special section in his notes that is dedicated to poetry appreciation.
The male protagonist is locked up in the dark room again. Let's see if he can be released tomorrow. These two minors... I really can't write about them.
