The ancient poem "Ambition" in the second grade of junior high school was rewritten as prose

Rewritten as follows:

In the evening, I stood in Donggao and looked into the distance. I was wandering and unsure where to turn. The woods were all dyed with autumn colors, and the mountains were covered with mountains. The remaining light of the setting sun. The shepherd drove the cattle back home, and the hunter passed me with his prey. Everyone was speechless and didn't know each other. I screamed and sang and really wanted to live in seclusion in the mountains!

The author of this poem is Wang Ji, a poet of the Tang Dynasty. The original text of the poem is as follows:

Looking at the dusk in Donggao, where can I rely on when I move?

The trees are all in autumn colors, and the mountains are only covered with sunset.

Herdsmen drive calves back, hunting horses return with poultry.

We look at each other but have no acquaintance, and we sing and pick up the flowers for a long time.

Wang Ji (approximately 589-644), courtesy name Wugong and alias Donggaozi, was born in Longmen County, Jiangzhou (Tonghua Town, Wanrong County, Shanxi Province, Tonghua Town was transferred from Hejin County to Wanrong County in 1972). , poet of the Tang Dynasty. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, filial piety and honesty were promoted, except for secretary Zhengzi. Unhappy at court, he resigned and was granted the title of Liuhe Cheng of Yangzhou. At that time, the world was in chaos, so he abandoned his official position and returned to his hometown. In Wudezhong of the Tang Dynasty, the imperial officials before the imperial edict waited for the imperial edict to go to the province. At the beginning of Zhenguan, he returned to Hezhu after his illness and worked hard at farming in Donggao (now Wuliu Scenic Area in Suzhou), calling himself "Donggaozi". He is simple and arrogant in nature, addicted to alcohol, and can drink five buckets. He wrote his own "Biography of Mr. Five Bucks", "Wine Classic" and "Wine Book", with notes from "Lao" and "Zhuang". His poems are close but not shallow, quality but not vulgar, sincere and forthright, open-minded and high-spirited, directly following the style of the Wei and Jin Dynasties. Rhythm style originated in the Six Dynasties and took shape during the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Wu Gong was actually the pioneer.

The genre of this poem is five-character poem. Ever since Shen Yue and others applied the knowledge of rhythm to poetry creation during the Qi Yongming period of the Southern Dynasty, the new genre of rhythmic poetry has been brewing. By the time of Shen Quanqi and Song Zhiwen in the early Tang Dynasty, the rhythmic poetry was finalized and became an important poetry genre. Wang Ji, who was more than sixty years earlier than Shen and Song Dynasties, could already write mature rhythmic poems such as "Ambition", which shows that he is a person who has the courage to try new forms. The first and last couplets of this poem express emotions, and the middle two couplets describe scenes. Through the repetition of emotion-scenery-emotion, the meaning of the poem deepens. This is in line with the basic structure of rhythmic poetry. This poem is about the autumn scenery of the mountains and fields. The whole poem reveals the loneliness and depression in the description of the bleak and quiet scenery, and expresses the feelings of melancholy and loneliness.
