Appreciate last year's trees

Last year's Tree is a fairy tale written by Japanese writer Mei Xin Nanzhi. Mei Xin Nanji (19 13~ 1943) was once as famous as Ogawa Mimei and Langji Hirata. At the age of 30, he created many children's literature works, but most of them were published after his death. Great emphasis on storytelling, connecting the preceding with the following, twists and turns. His main works include The Son of a Blanket and a Bowl (194 1), Grandpa and a kerosene lamp with a glass cover (1942), The Complete Works of Xinmeihe (1965, eight volumes) and The Complete Works of Xinmeihe (660).

Last year's tree told me that birds and trees are good friends. It sings to the tree every day. When winter comes and the birds will fly back to the south, the birds promise that the trees will come back and sing to them next year. But the next spring, when the bird flew back to find its friend, the tree disappeared. The bird looked everywhere and finally found a lamp lit with a match made of trees. So, it faced the light and sang a song.

The first time I saw Last Year's Tree, I felt warm and slightly sad. The emotional tone is similar to what I just saw in the south of the city. This fairy tale is full of affection, with a touch of sadness, the friendship between birds and trees, and the bird's persistence in its commitment, which is touching. The language of the whole fairy tale is unpretentious, and there are no flowery words in the full text. The sincere friendship between birds and trees is written by line drawing, which leaves a lot of imagination for readers and has a deep and transparent beauty in plain language.

Many teachers have made an in-depth and detailed analysis of the theme of this article. Friendship, affection and love are really "for every hundred readers, there are one hundred Hamlets." I was deeply moved by their analysis.

But I have a lingering question, that is, the incident mainly revolves around "birds", but why is the title of the article determined as "last year's tree" and the tree is the central thing in naming the theme? Last year's tree is gone, it has become the light to light matches. When I read this, I think of a text I learned as a child, Little Bluestone. Xiaoqingshi walked from a quiet mountain to a bustling city and became a stone serving the public. He thinks. I'm just thinking, maybe this last year's tree has become the light to light matches, and maybe it's not a tragedy in the eyes of trees. From the last "flame gently shaking, as if very happy", I saw that the tree was not sorry for his experience. Trees leave their hometown and familiar friends, and radiate light and heat in a foreign land, bringing light to others, so I think this may also be a story about dedication.
