Celebrating Years of Climbing High

Answer 1

Climbing High in Celebrating Years was a seven-character poem by Du Fu. This poem was regarded as the first of the seven rhythms of ancient and modern times. It had profound literary accumulation and life experience. Fan Xian wrote this poem from memory at the poetry gathering, making everyone marvel at it. Climbing High depicted the autumn scenery and the hardships of life, showing Du Fu's mood and thoughts about life in his later years. The reason why this poem was known as the number one rhythmic poem in the ages was because it was full of antithesis, describing scenes and objects, touching one's heart, and was very emotional. The first four sentences describe the scenery, and the last four sentences describe the feelings. The first couplet was a partial close-up, while the second couplet was the original scene of the whole. The last four sentences wrote about the feeling of climbing high, revolving around his sad life experience, expressing the sadness of poverty, old age and infirmity. This poem was crowned in the play as " the first seven-character poem of all time " and won Fan Xian a lot of attention.
