Why learn ancient poetry?

Ancient poetry is to let us know the thoughts of the ancients and learn their noble sentiments, and it is also a step-by-step learning process. Only in this way can we continue to climb up and surpass the ancients.

The use of poetry is graceful or vigorous, just like the artistic conception of painting, which makes people feel as if they are there in reading and understanding. The neat specifications and smooth rhymes can be said that the ancestors exhausted their essence and crystallized their works, which can make people feel the beauty in the learning process of ancient poetry, such as bathing in the spring breeze. Of course, in school, you may study because you want to, and you can't start from an independent point of view, which will lead to rebellious psychology. It can't be said that it is a pity of exam-oriented education.

Nowadays, many students don't pay much attention to the appreciation and interpretation of ancient poetry, thinking that the exam is only a few points and it is not worth spending so much time. In fact, classical poetry is an excellent culture of the Chinese nation. Modern students should learn from ancient wisdom, strengthen their self-cultivation, achieve the ideological connotation of "being upright, cultivating oneself, keeping the family in order, governing the country and leveling the world" and shoulder the historical responsibility entrusted by the times. Appreciation of ancient poetry directly or indirectly cultivates a person's ideological background, so it occupies a relatively large proportion in Chinese subjects. Of course, to learn the appreciation of ancient poetry step by step, we must master its core thinking methods and training methods.
