1000 years ago, in a chilly morning, a famous female Chinese poet Li Qingzhao was standing out of house. The thin clothes on her body couldn't keep her from the cold. In that case, she wrote the poem that has been passed down until now. The first line of the poem says that :the weather turns warm during daytime, but becomes chilly in the morning. The poet decribed a cold and silent environment that correctly reflected the poem's sorrowful mood. Though I don't have a bad mood in the morning, I really don't know what clothes I should wear. Thick ones or thin ones? A chilly morning with a slient street definitely influnces my mood which reminds me of the sentimental poet, but I usually choose a bowl of hot noodles as my breakfast insteads of being sorrowful like her.
