1, Xie Daowen's metaphor, written in a spirit likeness, is a romantic attitude. Catkin is like a rootless thing, just like an aristocratic family living abroad when crossing the river, with romantic meaning and sad mood.

2. It's just similar to Ah Fu. Xie Hu's answer lacks poetry and image, unlike the snow floating in the south and the rough snow in the north. But the snow that day should be the snow in the south. Xie Daowen's answer is consistent with the picture, with obvious dance characteristics.

"Catkin" is a good metaphor, which gives people the feeling that spring is coming. As the great English poet Shelley said, "If winter comes, can spring be far behind" ("ode to the west wind") has profound implications; What the metaphor of "sprinkling salt" lacks is this meaning-"sprinkling salt in the air". What is this for? Nobody knows.

4. A good poem should have images, which are the unity of matter and meaning. A good metaphor for catkin is that it has images; The metaphor of "sprinkling salt" is meaningless only in image, which is hard to say.
