Song appreciation
The Little Girl Picking Mushrooms is a rural theme song loved by the masses. It has won the hearts of young people with its fresh and lively style, unpretentious feelings and smooth and beautiful melody. In The Little Girl Picking Mushrooms, people see the image of a hardworking, simple, naive and lively rural girl. The lyricist did not use flowery words and too many metaphors, but used "sketching" to truly and vividly express the "shape" and "spirit" of this image.
Look, she is coming to the audience: in the morning, "carrying a big bamboo basket" and "barefoot", her diligent footprints are all over the "Woods and hills". She picked a lot of big mushrooms. "Too many stars" and "as big as a small umbrella full of baskets" are compared with "big bamboo baskets" and "small feet". The exaggeration of "stars" and "umbrellas" is vivid and interesting.
