如何營造故事沖突故事最令人津津樂道的部分往往是它的情節(jié)。故事首先是“事故”,換句話說,情節(jié)中的沖突孕育了故事。閱讀時(shí),我們總是被沖突或一連串的沖突“牽引”,與主人公“同呼吸,共命運(yùn)”。一個(gè)好故事,本質(zhì)上就是對(duì)沖突的記錄。沖突存在于對(duì)立的兩股力量——主角與反派,不同的觀點(diǎn)或截然不同的道德選擇等。它可以是外在的,也可以是內(nèi)在的。沖突推動(dòng)情節(jié)發(fā)展,走向高潮,最終得到解決。下面介紹三種增加故事沖突的途徑。途徑1

增加外部沖突增加外部沖突是一種明顯有效的可以達(dá)到故事高潮的方式。沖突帶來緊迫感,將故事推向頂點(diǎn)。1.角色之間的沖突[示例]Onthefourthorfifthnight,wehadtroublefindingahotelwithavacancy.Afterdrivinginvainforsometime,Momsuddenlygotagreatidea:

Whydidn’twefindahousewithalikely-lookingbackyardandaskifwecouldsetuptentthere?DavidandIbecamenervous.分析:開車找旅館——徒勞無功——母親建議搭帳篷——David和我倍感緊張,心有不悅(母子的觀點(diǎn)不一)2.角色與環(huán)境之間的沖突[示例]ThenMacheardquickandloudbreathingbehindhim...hesawinstantlythatitwasn’tadogatall,butawolf,quicklycatchingupwithhim.Mac’sheartjumped...,hefiredthesprayatthewolf.Abrightredcloudenvelopedtheanimal,andtoMac’srelief,itfellback,shakingitshead.Butaminutelater,...Thenit...,tearingopenhistentbag.Hefiredatthewolfasecondtime,andagain,itfellback...分析:人(角色)——狼(環(huán)境)大戰(zhàn):Mac騎車獨(dú)行,路遇餓狼,與之搏斗,險(xiǎn)象環(huán)生。3.時(shí)間刻不容緩,決策變得緊急[示例]Thecarabruptlystoppedinfrontofhim.“Getintothecar.”PaulshoutedatMac.MacjumpedoffthebikeandslidintothecarwithoutdelayasthewolfwasjusttwostepsawayandwasabouttotearMacintopieces.Whatanarrowescape!分析:汽車突然停在面前——Mac緊急上車避險(xiǎn)——餓狼近在咫尺(此情此景,刻不容緩)4.增加意外情節(jié),營造困難境地[示例]Butbeforewejumpedoffthehorses,wefoundthatwehadbeenoffthebeatentrackandgotlost.Wehadnoideawherewewereanditgotdark.Exhaustedandhungry,Iwonderedifwecouldfindourwayback.分析:草原迷路(障礙1)——天色漸黑(障礙2)——又累又餓(障礙3)——心理恐慌(障礙4)途徑2

放大內(nèi)心沖突放大內(nèi)心沖突(文中角色的內(nèi)心斗爭(zhēng))有助于抓住讀者的心,讓讀者感同身受,一步步將讀者帶入其境、融入其中,有助于制造故事波瀾和沖突。[示例]Immediately,anabsolutedarknessruledtheforest.Jane,exhaustedandscared,laydownnearastone,missingherfamilyatadistance.Allthefantasticmemorycrowdedinandshecouldn’thelpcrying,“Hadn’tIquarrelledwithTom,walkedawayandclimbedtothehighplace,Iwouldn’tbetrappedinthisawfulplace,confrontedwiththedangerofdying.”Sheregrettedwithendlessanxiety,andthenbecameasleepwithshiningtearsinhereyes.分析:夜色漸黑——獨(dú)處森林——陰森恐怖——后悔莫及(內(nèi)心沖突的刻畫),內(nèi)心獨(dú)白(往昔對(duì)比+虛擬語氣使用+旁白描寫)充分利用環(huán)境描寫可以起到烘托故事高潮的作用。當(dāng)故事角色在碰到困難的時(shí)候,我們往往要加大筆墨來描寫故事環(huán)境,以此襯托故事發(fā)展。強(qiáng)化環(huán)境描寫增強(qiáng)了高潮元素。途徑3

使用環(huán)境描寫增加不確定性[示例]Immediately,anabsolutedarknessruledtheforest.Evenworse,thetemperaturesuddenlydroppeddramatically.分析:森林漆黑——?dú)鉁叵陆怠媾R困境維度三

如何構(gòu)思精彩結(jié)尾解決了故事的核心沖突后,需要給故事一個(gè)結(jié)尾,常見的結(jié)尾方式有緊扣主題法、首尾呼應(yīng)法和主旨升華法。1.緊扣主題法。緊扣主題式結(jié)尾就是在結(jié)尾時(shí)用一兩句話點(diǎn)明文章主旨,而文章的主旨一般可以通過閱讀材料總結(jié)得出。例如2020年新高考全國Ⅰ卷的讀后續(xù)寫,Meredith夫人和她的孩子們想辦法幫助Bernard一家擺脫了困境。我們可以這樣結(jié)尾“HeneverforgotthehelpfromtheMeredithfamily,andhealsodidwhathecouldtohelpthoseinneed.”,這樣故事的主題就得以體現(xiàn)了。這種卒章顯志的結(jié)尾方式增加了文章的深刻性和感染力,有畫龍點(diǎn)睛的作用。2.首尾呼應(yīng)法。首尾呼應(yīng)是記敘文常見的寫作手法之一,首尾呼應(yīng)式結(jié)尾就是指故事的結(jié)尾要與故事的開頭有一定關(guān)聯(lián)。2021年新高考全國Ⅰ卷的讀后續(xù)寫首句是“ThetwinswerefilledwithexcitementastheythoughtofthesurprisetheywereplanningforMother’sDay.”,我們?cè)诮Y(jié)尾時(shí)可以利用孩子們的愿望得以實(shí)現(xiàn)來呼應(yīng)首句,以“Howexcitedtheywerewhentheyfoundtheycoulddosomethingfortheirmother!”為結(jié)尾。這種結(jié)尾方式不僅能夠保證續(xù)寫不偏離主題,還可以增加故事的連貫性。3.主旨升華法。很多時(shí)候,一些記敘文,特別是有哲理的記敘文,會(huì)通過一個(gè)故事說明一個(gè)道理。對(duì)于這類記敘文,要善于把握它的主題,然后通過一句高度凝練的話(通常是名言或諺語)給以啟示。例如2020年新高考全國Ⅰ卷的讀后續(xù)寫中,可以通過“Inadditiontolove,themostbeautifulverbintheworldishelp.”升華樂于助人的主題,號(hào)召讀者主動(dòng)幫助他人。維度四

如何遣詞造句,潤色續(xù)寫內(nèi)容讀后續(xù)寫題對(duì)學(xué)生的語言綜合運(yùn)用能力要求更高。要增添“讀后續(xù)寫”的表達(dá)效果,不僅要有詞匯量的積累,還要注意避免使用泛泛而談的詞匯,應(yīng)該多使用具體的詞匯使表達(dá)更加準(zhǔn)確到位。只有準(zhǔn)確、連續(xù)的動(dòng)作和夸張豐富的表情以及細(xì)致的心理活動(dòng)描寫,才能讓人物栩栩如生地站起來!一、善用動(dòng)作描寫讀后續(xù)寫的寫作過程中,成功的動(dòng)作描寫,可以交代人物的身份、地位,可以反映人物心理活動(dòng)的進(jìn)程,可以表現(xiàn)人物的性格特征。相反,空洞、籠統(tǒng)的描寫會(huì)使內(nèi)容缺乏生動(dòng)性,使人物形象不豐滿。人物的動(dòng)作或簡單或復(fù)雜,都不是一下子就能完成的,細(xì)心觀察才能捕捉到最能體現(xiàn)人物特征的慢鏡頭。因此,在描寫動(dòng)作時(shí),同學(xué)們要學(xué)會(huì)細(xì)化動(dòng)作,把動(dòng)作過程分解成一連串細(xì)微的動(dòng)作,形成動(dòng)作鏈,寫出動(dòng)作的連貫性,這樣才能使描寫具有畫面感,使人物更立體。1.什么是動(dòng)作鏈?[例1]

Hestoppedthetaxi,jumpedinwiththesuitcaseandtoldthedriver,“Gotothepolicestation,please.”分析:這句話的意思是:他攔下了出租車,拿著箱子跳進(jìn)車?yán)?然后對(duì)司機(jī)說:“請(qǐng)到警察局去?！逼鋵?shí),這句話只是描寫了“上車”的動(dòng)作,然而通過拆解,細(xì)致地展現(xiàn)了一個(gè)動(dòng)作的組成部分。其本質(zhì)是避免簡單粗暴地使用一個(gè)動(dòng)詞概括整個(gè)動(dòng)作,而是用2、3個(gè)動(dòng)詞組合進(jìn)行描述。我們可以用一個(gè)公式總結(jié)以上例句,如:上車=攔車+上車+告訴目的地。[例2]

Shewouldgetoffthecarexcitedly,laughinganddancingaround.分析:這句話的意思是:她會(huì)興奮地下車,又笑又跳。這里講的是一個(gè)比較粗線條的媽媽,動(dòng)作描寫完整地描述了這位媽媽下車時(shí)及下車后的表現(xiàn),即:下車=下車+笑+跳。2.續(xù)寫常用的動(dòng)作鏈形式(1)“A,BandC”結(jié)構(gòu)這種結(jié)構(gòu)就是多個(gè)連續(xù)的動(dòng)作用在一個(gè)句子中。我們用幾個(gè)例句來形象地解讀一下這類動(dòng)作鏈?zhǔn)侨绾涡纬傻?。[例1]男孩們跳入湖中嬉戲。分析:跳入湖中,這個(gè)動(dòng)作前面或后面會(huì)有哪些動(dòng)作?動(dòng)作鏈:跳入湖中嬉戲=沖向湖邊+脫掉衣服+跳入水中。Theboysrushedtothelake,took

offtheirclothesandjumped

intothewater.[例2]她抱住兒子。分析:抱住兒子,這個(gè)動(dòng)作前面或后面會(huì)有哪些動(dòng)作?動(dòng)作鏈:抱住兒子=沖向前+蹲下+一把抱住。Shedashedforward,kneltdownandgatheredhersonintoherarms.[例3]這個(gè)歌手唱歌。分析:歌手唱歌,這個(gè)動(dòng)作前面或后面會(huì)有哪些動(dòng)作?動(dòng)作鏈:歌手唱歌=掃視觀眾+深吸一口氣+開始演唱。Thesingerglanced

attheaudience,tookadeepbreathandbegan

to

sing.通過閱讀以上三個(gè)動(dòng)作鏈的例子,我們會(huì)感覺眼前展現(xiàn)出一幅生動(dòng)形象的畫面,雖然沒有情感詞匯在里面,但是已經(jīng)把一些情感都豐富地體現(xiàn)出來了。(2)“句子+非謂語動(dòng)詞”結(jié)構(gòu)下面用三個(gè)模式來說明這種描寫動(dòng)作的句子結(jié)構(gòu)。模式1:句子+動(dòng)詞-ing[例1]老人靜坐。分析:老人靜坐,這個(gè)動(dòng)作前面或后面會(huì)有哪些動(dòng)作?動(dòng)作鏈:老人靜坐=坐在夕陽下+看報(bào)紙+聽廣播。Theoldmansatunderthesunset,readingthenewspaperandlisteningtotheradio.模式2:句子+havingdone[例2]沒有買到票。分析:沒有買到票,這個(gè)動(dòng)作前面或后面會(huì)有哪些動(dòng)作?動(dòng)作鏈:沒有買到票=排了很久隊(duì)+被告知票賣完了。Having

queuedfor3hours,hewas

toldthatthetickethadbeensoldout.模式3:句子+動(dòng)詞-ed[例3]孩子們哭了。分析:“哭”這個(gè)動(dòng)作前面或后面會(huì)有哪些動(dòng)作?或者因?yàn)槭裁丛蚝⒆涌蘖?動(dòng)作鏈:哭了=被感動(dòng)+哭了。Deeplymovedbythestory,thechildrenbegan

to

cry.二、會(huì)用高級(jí)句式1.形容詞(短語)作狀語形容詞(短語)在句中作狀語,可以表明主語所處的狀態(tài)。這種表達(dá)結(jié)構(gòu)簡單,卻表意豐富,讀后續(xù)寫中經(jīng)常用到。如:Lostinthemountainfortwodays,thesestudentswerefinallyrescuedbythelocalpolice.這些學(xué)生在山里迷路兩天后,最終被當(dāng)?shù)鼐炀攘顺鰜?。Speechless

and

happy,sheheldhersontightlyintoherarms,withtearswellingupinhereyes.她高興得說不出話來,緊緊地抱著她的兒子,熱淚盈眶。3.獨(dú)立主格結(jié)構(gòu)獨(dú)立主格結(jié)構(gòu)的構(gòu)成為“名詞/代詞+現(xiàn)在分詞/過去分詞/不定式/形容詞/介詞短語”,其作用相當(dāng)于一個(gè)狀語從句。如:Theothertwoclimbeddownintothecratertocollectsomelavaforlaterstudy,butthis

being

my

first

experience,Istayedatthetopandwatchedthem.另外兩人向下爬進(jìn)火山口去收集供日后研究用的巖漿,但我是第一次經(jīng)歷這樣的事,所以留在山頂上觀察他們。Theboyrushedtotheoldman’shouse,his

face

covered

with

sweat.男孩沖到老人家里,滿臉是汗。4.倒裝句型為了突出或強(qiáng)調(diào)句子中的某個(gè)部分,我們可以將其置于句首,形成倒裝結(jié)構(gòu)。如:Only

then

did

we

decidetoanswerviolencewithviolence.直到那時(shí)我們才決定以暴制暴。Never

will

Zhou

Yang

forgethisfirstjobattheofficeofChina

Daily.周洋永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)忘記他在《中國日?qǐng)?bào)》辦公室獲得的第一份工作。Among

the

painterswhobrokeawayfromthetraditionalstyleofpaintingwere

the

Impressionists,wholivedandworkedinParis.在那些突破傳統(tǒng)畫法的畫家中有生活和工作在巴黎的印象派畫家。5.強(qiáng)調(diào)句型強(qiáng)調(diào)句型的基本結(jié)構(gòu)為“Itis/was+被強(qiáng)調(diào)部分+that/who+其他部分”。如:It

wasmysisterwho/thatfirsthadtheideatocyclealongtheentireMekongRiverfromwhereitbeginstowhereitends.首先想到要沿著湄公河從源頭騎車到終點(diǎn)的是我的姐姐。Furtherreadingmademerealizethatit

washardworkanddeterminationaswellashergentlenaturethatgotherintomedicalschool.進(jìn)一步的閱讀讓我意識(shí)到是她的努力、決心以及溫柔的性格使她進(jìn)入了醫(yī)學(xué)院。6.虛擬語氣在表示虛假的、與事實(shí)相反的或難以實(shí)現(xiàn)的情況時(shí)用虛擬語氣;表示主觀愿望或某種強(qiáng)烈情感時(shí),也用虛擬語氣。如:Iftherehadn’t

beenforyourhelp,theboywould

have

failedinthetest.要是沒有你的幫助,這個(gè)男孩就會(huì)在測(cè)試中不及格。Butforthisexperience,shewouldn’t

have

realizedthatsheshouldspendmoretimewithherfamily.如果沒有這次經(jīng)歷,她就不會(huì)意識(shí)到她應(yīng)該花更多的時(shí)間和家人在一起。三、巧用修辭手法無論是在漢語還是在英語中,修辭都是一門具有獨(dú)特魅力的藝術(shù)。在讀后續(xù)寫中,恰當(dāng)?shù)剡\(yùn)用修辭手法可以使平淡的語言變得鮮活、生動(dòng),從而增強(qiáng)文章的表現(xiàn)力,也有助于考生獲得高分。其中,較為常用的修辭手法有比喻和擬人兩種。1.比喻比喻是根據(jù)事物之間的相似點(diǎn),把某一事物比作另一事物,從而把抽象的事物說得具體、形象,把深?yuàn)W的道理說得通俗、淺顯、明白。常見的比喻形式有明喻和暗喻兩種。(1)明喻通常是把被比喻的“本體”和用以比喻的“喻體”同時(shí)說出,說明本體事物像喻體事物。它是最簡單、最常見的一種修辭手法,其常見的標(biāo)志詞有l(wèi)ike,as,asif,asthough等。Thesceneryalongthejourneyisjustlike
