Why should the Three Gorges focus on describing landscapes?

Because "Notes on the Book of Water" is a geographical masterpiece, since it is a geographical masterpiece, it is inevitable to describe landscapes such as mountains and rivers.

In ancient times, science and technology were not developed, and it was impossible for the author to describe a geographical thing in a systematic and scientific way, so he tried to write what he could.

The characteristics of the Three Gorges Mountain: continuous, towering, protruding continuously, covering the sky and the sun, seven hundred miles of the Three Gorges, both sides of the river are continuous high mountains, there is almost no interruption. Numerous cliffs, layers of cliffs, obscured the sky and blocked the sun.

Characteristics of water: In spring and winter, the white rapids reflect the clear light, and the green waterholes reflect the shadows of the scenery. The rapids are sparkling, the scenery in the deep pool is heavy, the movement and stillness are mixed, the colors are different, and they contrast with each other, which can be called beautiful and elegant.

The river is grand and the water is turbulent; Spring and winter are crystal clear, strange and beautiful, swaying and colorful; Autumn is sad, desolate, sad, and sad.

The Three Gorges is an essay written by the Northern Wei Dynasty geographer and essayist Li Daoyuan. This essay is a bright and fresh landscape prose, which describes the majesty and steepness of the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River, depicts the four seasons of the Three Gorges, and shows a tall and beautiful ink landscape painting in the map of the Yangtze River. The structure of the whole text is rigorous, the layout is ingenious, and it is coherent, the language is concise and concise, and the description is a blend of scenes and vivid and expressive.

Between the seven hundred miles of the Three Gorges, both sides of the river are high mountains with continuous limbs, and there is no place to break at all; Overlapping cliffs and cliffs obscured the sky and the sun. If it weren't for the middle of the night, the sun and moon wouldn't even be visible.

When the water rises in the summer, when the river floods up the small hills, when the river floods up the small hills, the ships going down or up are blocked, and sometimes the emperor's orders have to be conveyed urgently, and then as long as he goes out from the White Emperor City in the morning to accompany him, he will arrive at Gangneung in the evening, and there are 1,200 miles in between, even if he rides a galloping horse and rides the wind, it is not as fast as it.

In spring and winter, you can see white rapids and swirling waves. The turquoise water reflects the shadows of various scenes. The very high peaks are lined with strange cypress trees, and there are hanging springs and waterfalls between the peaks.

The water is clear, the trees are glorious, the mountains are high, the grass is abundant, and it is indeed infinitely interesting.

In autumn, when the first days of the day or the morning of frost fall, the woods and mountain streams appear cool and silent, and there are often long and elongated voices of apes from high places, and the sound is continuous, very desolate and strange, and the echoes of ape calls are heard in the empty valleys, mournful and tactful, and disappear for a long time. Therefore, the song of the fishermen in the Three Gorges sang Bi Hunger stupidly: "The Wu Gorge of the Three Gorges of Badong is long, and the ape screams three times with tears." ”
