Ⅳ.阅读理解[跨学科]
The red beans grow in southern land;
How many loads(枝条)in spring the trees?
Collect them till full is your hand;
They would recall sweet memories.
Love is a popular theme in Chinese poems. What symbols do you
think best stand for love? The heart, rose or chocolate? This time we are
going to look at a classic Chinese poem, Love Seeds.
12
It was written by the Tang Dynasty poet Wang Wei who had a different
understanding of the symbol of love.
In the first two lines, the poet expresses his feelings of missing his
friend, who lives in southern China, by describing the growth of red
beans in spring. In classic Chinese poems, poets prefer to express
feelings in an indirect or symbolic way. When describing the natural
environment or showing some symbols, Chinese poets always mean more
than what's described on the surface.
In Chinese culture, red beans are seen as “love seeds”, which have a
strong cultural meaning. Because they are often hard, come in a heart
shape, and can be stored for a long time. Those beans have long been
used as a symbol of love and loyalty(忠诚) between lovers.
In the last two lines, the poet wishes his faraway friend to collect as
many red beans as possible, as the beans will bring back his friend's
memories to the poet.
Instead of showing love to others by directly saying “I miss you” or
using flowery language, this short poem can make readers feel deep love.
1.In classic Chinese poems, poets express feelings in ___ ways.
A. direct B. straight C. symbolic D. short
2.How many features(特点) of the red beans are mentioned by the
writer?( )
A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four.

B. Wang Wei lived in southern China when writing this poem.
C. Wang Wei thinks red beans are seen as “love seeds” because of their

him.
