Wang Xizhi Watching Geese, Yuan dynasty (1271–1368), ca. 1295 by Qian Xuan

这幅画上是一个小棚屋，小棚屋的前面是一条河，在河里游来游去是两只纯白色的鹅。在小棚里站着一个师傅和一个学生。他们的后边有一个非常高大的树，树上的叶子除了有青绿色的，还有蓝色的。我觉得这些颜色组合真奇怪。画家在整个环境上大半用了淡淡的颜色, 令人看起来心里感觉得特别和平。

画家的名字是钱选，他是个山水画家，所以他经常画自然景物 。我选了这幅画，因为我觉得这幅画鼓舞人心，而且树上的叶子画得很抽象，十分特别。

在幅画上，那个师傅是王羲之，一位有名的书法家。这里的环境很安静，王羲之在欣赏鹅游泳的形状和动作。他的学生坐着，跟他一起看美丽的景色。有些树有蓝色的叶子，因为这幅画上的的世界是在他们心里假想的，不是现实。这是因为现实不能又漂亮又安静。我想爬上这些树木，因为看起来很好玩。如果我在那里，能欣赏这个环境我会高兴极了。

This painting depicts a small hut, in front of the hut there is a river. In the river there are two geese swimming around. There is also a teacher and a student inside the hut. Behind them, there is a very large tree and tall tree. The trees contain not only green leaves, but also blue leaves. I think the combination of these colors is strange. In the painting, the artist uses mainly pale colors, which makes the painting look very peaceful.

The artist’s name is Qian Yuan, he is a landscape painter, and therefore he likes to paint natural objects. I chose this painting because it is very inspiring. Also, the tree leaves are abstract, which is very unique.

In the painting, the teacher’s name is Wang XiZhi, a famous calligraphy painter. The environment surrounding him is very quiet, but he can still admire the movements of the geese. His student sits with him and together and looks upon the beautiful environment. Some trees have blue leaves; this is because the painting depicts an imagination, not reality. In reality, this level of serenity and beauty can never be found. I would like to climb that tree, because it looks very fun. If I could be in this environment, I would be so happy.
