1．This track is titled "Summer Farewell," which explores the longing for summer's departure. Please analyze the poem through these lines to explain how it reflects the spirit of spring's departure and provide specific interpretations.

2．Analyze the meaning behind "Tiny杨柳风, Pointed梨花雨" where "Tiny" "Pointed" are used as effective expressions for describing the gentle breeze and delicate petals. The last line hints at a deeper reflection on the fleeting nature of spring's arrival and departure (such as "Why don’t we go to summer?").

参考答案

1．①By借助 simile, the author uses "Y柳风" to express the gentle breeze. The second sentence shows that "梨花雨" is a characteristic phenomenon of spring. Spring's beauty is revealed in these moments when the wind guides the leaves and the rain falls on the petals.
2．The words "Tiny" "Pointed" combine for specific imagery: " Tiny杨柳风" indicates the gentle breeze, while " Pointed梨花雨" denotes the delicate petals of the flower. The combination conveys a sense of beauty in these moments and hints at the fleeting nature of spring's arrival (as if it is about to leave) when its departure begins.

2．①"The 'Tiny' indicates that the breeze is light, while 'Pointed' suggests that the petals are delicate."
②"The two adjectives work together to create a vivid picture of spring's characteristic gentle breeze and delicate petal arrangement."
Cheerfully, the poem points out that "Spring arrives" but does not arrive quickly. The next moment is the departure of spring, but this departure is quick for some reasons (such as "Why don’t we go to summer?").

3．The铺垫作用 helps set up a mood of gradual change. The use of叠词 also serves to emphasize the harmony and rhythm of spring's gentle breeze and delicate petal arrangement, which are typical features of its natural beauty.
