写人的作文应注意什么

写人是作文的基本命题。写人,可以侧重写人物的外部表现,即写他在做些什么,或者有哪些动人事迹;也可侧重写人物的内心活动,写他在一件事面前,在与别人交往中,或在一种特定的环境中的内心变化,和随之产生的喜、怒、哀、乐之情;也可以交错地写人的外部表现和心理活动。

写人的文章应注意以下几点。

1. 交代清楚他是什么人,如他的年龄、性别、外貌、职业、性情,及与自己的关系。

2. 要写出人物的特点,就是要写出这个人与其他人不同的地方。只有把特点写出来了,才能给读者留下深刻的印象,文章也才能与众不同,有新意。

3. 要通过具体的事件来表现人物,决不能像老师给你写品德评语那样来写人。所选的事件要能充分表现这人性格和品质。当你把事情写好了,人物也就写好了。如当你读完《董存瑞舍身炸暗堡》以及《我的战友邱少云》以后,你对这两位英雄就有了深刻的印象了。

4. 要抓住人物细微的动作及其变化,给予具体,生动的描写。即抓住细节刻画人物,使原来比较平板、模糊的形象变得栩栩如生,有血有肉。如《一夜的工作》中,周总理扶正转椅就是一个细节描写,它表现了周总理有条不紊的工作作风。

5. 在进行人物语言描写时,要符合人物的身份和性格,因为不同的年龄、职业、性格等的人物,他们所讲的话是不同的,即使是同一个人,在不同的情况下所讲的话也是不同的。

6. 要紧紧扣住人物的特点和文章所要表达的中心思想来写人,不要想到什么就写什么,马虎拼凑,拉拉杂杂,更不能重复罗嗦,画蛇添足,使人看了不知在说什么。

1、紧扣主题,短文必须包括提纲中的全部要点;与主题无关或关系不大的字句必须一律删去。

2、文章通顺,前后贯通,语言流畅。

3、句子开头多样化,句型多样化。

4、无句型结构错误,无语法错误和用语造句等方面的错误。

5、短文字数不得少于150个字。

对考研英语短文的策略:

1.分配好短文各部分篇幅比例

根据在40分钟内写150词的《大纲》要求,合理分配各部分篇幅比例显得非常重要。篇幅比例安排大致如下:

(1)开头:可控制在4句话之内,以2——3句较为适宜。该部分约占全文篇幅的10%——15%。

(2)主体:约占全篇短文的70%——80%。

(3)结尾:这部分应控制在2——3句话之内,约占全文篇幅10——15%。

2.合理分配时间

应该切记短文写作时间仅为40分钟,在这较短的时间内考生需完成120——150词的短文。这就要求考生做到有条不紊、忙而不乱,充分发挥自己应有的水平。从而稳操胜券,驾轻就熟,从容应对。建议考生在动笔之前,用5分钟的时间写个提纲理清思路,然后再动笔。此外,要留出5——6分钟来修改抄写。以避免不必要的笔误,给评卷老师留下良好的印象。

3.审题——紧扣主题的关键

所谓审题,就是正确理解题意,所写短文要紧扣题目要求。从每年的英文短文考题可看出,除了题目外,还有开头第一句话和一个写作提纲。这个写作提纲就是短文的写作具体范围。考生必须以指定的句子开头,按写作提纲规定的要点和顺序(通常是3个要点)往下写。

通常3个要点就是写三段话,每段开头(除第一段已给了外)第一句话必须把该段写作提纲中的主要的词或主要意思包括进去,这就是段落中心句。每段其他句子必须紧扣该段的段落中心句,与段落中心句无关的句子或关系不大的句子必须坚决删去。由于写作提纲中所给的3个要点(即关键词)已包括在每段开头的段落中心句(即每段开头的第一句)中,而每段的其他句子又紧扣段落中心句,这就使每段的内容紧扣主题,而不至离开主题去谈别的问题,这就是抓住主题的关键。

2. Damaging Research

A study by National Parent-Teacher Organization revealed that in the average American school, eighteen negatives are identified for every positive that is pointed out. The Wisconsin study revealed that when children enter the first grade, 80 percent of them feel pretty good themselves, but by the time they get to the sixth grade, only 10 percent of them have good self-images.

3. Education and Citizenship

An important aspect of education in the United States is the relationship between education and citizenship. Throughout its history this nation has emphasized public education as a means of transmitting democratic values, creating equality of opportunity, and preparing new generations of citizens to function in society. In addition, the schools have been expected to help shape society itself. During the 1950s, for example, efforts to combat racial segregation focused on the schools. Later, when the Soviet Union launched the first orbiting satellite, American schools and colleges came under intense pressure and were offered many incentives to improve their science and mathematics programs so that the nations would not fall behind the Soviet Union in scientific and technological capabilities.

Education is often viewed as a tool for solving social problems, especially social inequality. The schools, t is thought, can transform young people from vastly different backgrounds into competent, upwardly mobile adults. Yet these goals seem almost impossible to attain. In recent years, in fact, public education has been at the center of numerous controversies arising from the gap between the ideal and the reality. Part of the problem is that different groups in society have different have different expectations. Some feel that children should be taught basic job-related skills; still others believe education should not only prepare children to compete in society but also help them maintain their cultural identity (and, in the case of Hispanic children, their language). On the other hand, policymakers concerned with education emphasize the need to increase the level of student achievement and to improve parents in their children’s education.

Some reformers and critics have called attention to the need to link formal schooling with programs designed to address social problems. Sociologist Charles Moscos, for example, is a leader in the movement to expand programs like the Peace Corps, Vista, and Outward Bound into a system of voluntary national service. National service, as Moscos defines it, would entail “the full-time undertaking of public duties by young people whether as citizen soldiers or civilian servers-who are paid subsistence wages” and serve for at least one year. In return for this period of service, the volunteers would receive assistance in paying for college or other educational expenses.

Advocates of national service and school-to-work programs believe that education does not have to be confined to formal schooling. In devising strategies to provide opportunities for young people to serve their society, they emphasize the educational value of citizenship experiences gained outside the classroom. At this writing there is little indication that national service will become a new educational institution in the United States, although the concept is steadily gaining support among educators and social critics.

4. The Teacher’s Role

Given the undeniable importance of classroom experience, sociologists have done a considerable amount of research on what goes on in the classroom. Often they start from the premise that, along with the influence of peers, students’ experiences in the classroom are of central importance to their later development. One study examined the impact of a single first-grade teacher on her students’ subsequent adult status. The surprising results of this study have important implications. It is evident that good teachers can make a big difference in children’s lives, a fact that gives increased urgency to the need to improve the quality of primary-school teaching. The reforms carried out by educational leaders like James Comer suggest that when good teaching is combined with high levels of parental involvement the results can be even more dramatic.

Because the role of the teacher is to change the learner in some way, the teacher-student relationship is an important part of education. Sociologists have pointed out that this relationship is asymmetrical or unbalanced, with the teacher being in a position of authority and the student having little choice but to passively absorb the information provided by the teacher. In other words, in conventional classrooms there is little opportunity for the students to become actively involved in the learning process. On the other hand, students often develop strategies for undercutting the teacher’s authority: mentally withdrawing, interrupting, and the like. Hence, much current research assumes that students and teachers influence each other instead of assuming that the influence is always in a single direction.

5. Education Philosophy

For the past fifty years our schools have operated on the theories of John Dewey (1859-1953), an American educator and writer. Dewey believed hat the school’s job was to enhance the natural development of the growing child, rather than to pour information, for which the child had no context, into him or her. In the Dewey system, the child becomes the active agent in his own education, rather than a passive receptacle for facts.

Consequently, American schools are very enthusiastic about teaching “life skills” –logical thinking, analysis, creative problem--solving. The actual content of the lessons is secondary to the process, which is supposed to train the child to be able to handle whatever life may present, including all the unknowns of the future. Students and teachers both regard pure memorization as an uncreative and somewhat vulgar.

In addition to “life skills”, schools are assigned to solve the ever growing stoke of social problems. Racism, teenage pregnancy, alcoholism, drug use, reckless driving, and are just a few of the modern problems that have appeared on the school curriculum.

This all contributes to a high degree of social awareness in American youngsters.

6. Student Life

To the students, the most notable difference between elementary school and the higher levels is that in junior high they start “changing classes”. This means that rather than spending the day in one classroom, they switch classrooms to meet their different teachers. This gives them three or four minutes between classes in the hallways, where a great deal of the important social action of high school traditionally takes place. Students have lockers in these hallways, around which thy congregate.

Society in general does not take the business of studying very seriously. Schoolchildren have a great deal of free time, which they are encouraged to fill with extracurricular activities—sports, clubs, cheerleading, scouts—supposed to inculcate such qualities as leadership, sportsmanship, ability to organize, etc. those who don’t become engaged in such activities or have afterschool jobs have plenty of opportunity to “hang out”, listen to teenager music, and watch television.

Compared to other nations, American students do not have much homework. Studies also show that American parents have lower expectations for their children’s success in school than other nationalities do. (Historically, there has not been much correlation between American school success and success in later life.) “He’s just not a scholar”, the American parents might say, content that their son is on the swim team and doesn’t take drugs. (Some of the young do choose to study hard, for reason of their own, such as determining that the road to riches lies through Harvard Business School.)

What American schools do effectively teach is the competitive method. In innumerable ways children are pitted against each other—whether in classroom discussion, spelling bees, reading groups, or tests. Every classroom is expected to produce a scattering of A’s and F’s (teachers often grade A=excellent; B=good; C=average; D=poor; and F=failed). A teacher who gives all A’s looks too soft—so students are aware that they are competing for the limited number of top marks.

Foreign students sometimes don’t understand that copying from other people’s papers or from books is considered wrong and taken seriously. Here, it is important to show that you have done your own work and are displaying your own knowledge. It is more important than helping your friends to pass, whom we think do not deserve to pass unless they can provide their own answers. Group effort goes against the competitive grain, and American students do not study together as many Asians do. Many Asians in this country consider their group study habits a large contributor to their school success.

7. Adult Education

After complaining about many aspects of American life, a 40-year-old woman from Hong Kong concluded, “But where else could someone my age go back to school and get a degree in social work? Here you can change your whole life, start a new business, do what you really want to do.”

So at least to this person, school requirements weren’t inhibiting. And to millions of others, adult education is the path to a new career, or if not to a new career, to a new outlook. Schools generally encourage the older person who wants to start anew, and besides regular classes, schedule evening classes in special programs. Today there are so many people of retirement age in college that it is no longer remarkable.

8. Moral Relativism in American

Improving American education requires not doing new things but doing (and remembering) some good old things. At the time of our nation’s founding, Thomas Jefferson listed the requirements for a sound education in the Report of the Commissioners for the University of Virginia. In this landmark statement on American education, Jefferson wrote of the importance of education and writing, and of reading history, and geography. But he also emphasized the need “to instruct the mass of our citizens in these, their rights, interests, and duties, as men and citizens.” Jefferson believed education should aim at the improvement of both one’s “morals” and “faculties”. That has been the dominant view of the aims of American education for over two centuries. But a number of changes, most of them unsound, have diverted schools from these great pursuits. And the story of the loss of the school’s original moral mission explains a great deal.

Starting in the early seventies, “values clarification” programs started turning up in schools all over America. According to this philosophy, the schools were not to take part in their time-honored task of transmitting sound moral values; rather, they were to allow the child to “clarify” his own values (which adults, including parents, had no “rights” to criticize). The “values clarification” movement didn’t clarify values; it clarified wants and desires. This form of moral relativism said, in effect, that no set of values was right or wrong; everybody had an equal right to his own values; and all values were subjective, relative, and personal. This destructive view took hold with a vengeance.

In 1985 The York Times published an article quoting New York area educators, in slavish devotion to this new view, proclaiming, “They deliberately avoid trying to tell students what is ethically right and wrong.” The article told of one counseling session involving fifteen high school juniors and seniors. In the course of that session a student concluded that a fellow student had been foolish to return one thousand dollars she found in a purse at school. According to the article, when the youngsters asked the counselor’s opinion, “He told them he believed the girl had done the right thing, but that, of course, he would not try to force his values on them. ‘If I come from the position of what is wrong,’ he explained, ‘then I’m not their counselor.’”

Once upon a time, a counselor offered counselor, and he knew that an adult does not form character in the young by taking a stance of neutrality toward questions of right and wrong or by merely offering “choices” or “options”.

In response to the belief that adults and educators should teach children sound morals, one can expect from some quarters indignant objections (I’ve heard one version of it expressed countless times over the years): “Who are you to say what’s important?” or “Whose standards and judgments do we use?”

The correct response, it seems to me, is, is we ready to do away with standards and judgments? Is anyone going to argue seriously that a life of cheating and swindling is as worthy as a life of honest, hard work? Is anyone (with the exception of some literature professors at our elite universities) going to argue seriously the intellectual corollary, that a Marvel comic book is as good as Macbeth? Unless we are willing to embrace some pretty silly position, we’ve got to admit the need for moral and intellectual standards. The problem is that some people tend to regard anyone who would pronounce a definitive judgment as an unsophisticated Philistine or a closed-minded “elitist” trying to impose his view on everybody else.

The truth of the real world is that without standards and judgments, there can be no progress. Unless we are prepared to say irrational things—that nothing can be proven more valuable than anything else or that everything is equally worthless—we must ask the normative question. It may come, as a surprise to those who fell that to be “progressive” is to be value-neutral. But as Matthew Amold said, “the world is forwarded by having its attention fixed on the best things” and if the world can’t decide what the best things are, at least to some degree, then it follows that progress, and character, is in trouble. We shouldn’t be reluctant to declare that some things, some lives, books, ideas, and values are better than others. It is the responsibility of the schools to teach these better things.

At one time, we weren’t so reluctant to teach them. In the mid-nineteenth century, a diverse, widespread group of crusaders began to work for the public support of what was then called the “common school”, the forerunner of the public school. They were to be charged with the mission of school felt that the nation could fulfill its destiny only if every new generation was taught these values together in a common institution.

The leaders of the common school movement were mainly citizens who were prominent in their communities—businessmen, ministers, local civic and government officials. These people saw the schools as upholders of standards of individual morality and small incubators of civic and personal virtue; the founders of the public schools had faith that public education could teach good moral and civic character from a common ground of American values.

But in the past quarter century or so, some of the so-called experts became experts of value neutrality, and moral education was increasingly left in their hands. The commonsense view of parents and the publicthat schools should reinforce rather than undermine the values of home, family, and country, was increasingly rejected.

There are those today still that claim we are now too diverse a nation, that we consist of too many competing convictions and interests to instill common values. They are wrong. Of course we are a diverse people. We have always been a diverse people. And as Madison wrote in FederalistNo.10, the competing, balancing interests of a diverse people can help ensure the survival of liberty. But there are values that all American citizens share and that we should want all American students to know and to make their own: honesty, fairness, self-discipline, fidelity to task, friends, and family, personal responsibility, love of country, and belief in the principles of liberty, equality, and the freedom to practice one’s faith. The explicit teaching of these values is the legacy of the common schools, and it is a legacy to which we must return.

9. Schools Should Teach Values

People often said, “Yes, we should teach these values, but how do we teach them?” this question deserves a candid response, one that isn’t given often enough. It is by exposing our children to good character and inviting its imitation that we will transmit to them a moral foundation. This happens when teachers and principals, by their words and actions, embody sound convictions. As Oxford’s Mary Warnock has written, “You cannot teach morality without being committed to morality yourself; and you cannot be committed to morality yourself without holding that some things are right and others wrong.” The theologian Martin Buber wrote that the educator is distinguished from all other influences “by his will to take part in the stamping of character and by his consciousness that he represents in the eyes of the growing person a certain selection of what is, the selection of what is ‘right’, of what should be.” It is in this will, Buber says, in this clear standing for something, that the “vocation as an educator finds its fundamental expression.”

There is no escaping the fact that young people need as example principals and teachers who know the difference between right and wrong, good and bad, and who themselves exemplify high moral purpose.

As Education Secretary, I visited a class at Waterbury Elementary School in Waterbury, Vermont, and asked the students, “Is this a good school?” They answered, “Yes, this is a good school.” I asked them, “Why?” Among other things, one eight-year-old said, “The principal Mr. Riegel, makes good rules and everybody obeys them.” So I said, “Give me an example.” And another answered, “You can’t climb on the pipes in the bathroom. We don’t climb on the pipes and the principal doesn’t either.”

This example is probably too simple to please a lot of people who want to make the topic of moral education difficult, but there is something profound in the answer of those children, something education should pay more attention to. You can’t expect children to take messages about rules or morality seriously unless they see adults taking those rules seriously in their day-to-day affairs. Certain must be said, certain limits lay down, and certain examples set. There is no other way.

We should also do a better job at curriculum selection. The research shows that most “values education” exercises and separate courses in “moral reasoning” tend not to affect children’s behavior; if anything, they may leave children morally adrift. Where to turn? I believe our literature and our history are a rich quarry of moral literacy. We should mine that quarry. Children should have at their disposal a stock of examples illustrating what we believe to be right and wrong, good and bad—examples illustrating what are morally right and wrong can indeed be known and that there is a difference.

What kind of stories, historical events, and famous lives am I talking about? If we want our children to know about honesty, we should teach them about Abe Lincoln walking three miles to return six cents and conversely, about Aesop’s shepherd boy who cried wolf if we want them to know about courage, we should teach them about Joan of Arc, Horatius at the bridge, and Harriet Tubman and the Underground Railroad. If we want them to know about persistence in the face of adversity, they should know about the voyages of Columbus and the character of Washington during the Civil War. And our youngest should be told about the Little Engine That Could. If we want them to know about respect for the law, they should understand why Socrates told Crito: “No, I must submit to the decree of Athens.” If we want our children to respect the rights of others, they should read the Declaration of Independence, the Bill of Rights, the Gettysburg Address, and Martin Luther King, Jr.’ “Letter from Birmingham jail.” From the Bible they should know about Ruth’s loyalty to Naomi, Joseph’s forgiveness of his brothers, Jonathan’s friendship with David, the Good Samaritan’s kindness toward a stranger, and David’s cleverness and courage in facing Goliath.

These are only a few of the hundreds of examples we can call on. And we need not get into issues like nuclear war, abortion, creationism, or euthanasia. This may come as a disappointment to some people, but the fact is that the formation of character in young people is educationally a task different from, and prior to, the discussion of the great, difficult controversies of the day. First things come first. We should teach values the same way we teach other things: one step at a time. We should not use the fact that there are many difficult and controversial moral questions as an argument against basic instruction in the subject.

After all, we do not argue against teaching physics because laser physics is difficult, against teaching American history because there are heated disputes about the Founders’ intent. Every field has its complexities and its controversies. And every field has its basics, its fundamentals. So they are too with forming character and achieving moral literacy. As any parent knows, teaching character is a difficult task. But it is a crucial task, because we want our children to be healthy, happy, and successful but decent, strong, and good. None of this happens automatically; there is no genetic transmission of virtue. It takes the conscious, committed efforts of adults. It takes careful attention.

10. College Pressures

Mainly I try to remind that the road ahead is a long one and that it will have more unexpected turns than they think. There will be plenty of time to change jobs, change careers, change whole attitudes and approaches. They don not want to hear such liberating news. They want a map—right now – that they can follow unswervingly to career security, financial security, Social Security and, presumably, a prepaid grave.

What I wish for all students is some release from the clammy grip of the future. I wish them a chance to savor each segment of their education as an experience in itself and not as a grim preparation for the next step. I wish them the right to experiment, to trip and fall, to learn that defeat is as instructive as victory and is not the end of the world.

My wish, of course, is na?ve. One of the national gods venerated in our media—the million-dollar athlete, the wealthy executive—and glorified in our praise of possessions. In the presence of such a potent state religion, the young are growing up old.

I see four kinds of pressure working on college students today: economic pressure, parental pressure, peer pressure, and self-induced pressure. It is easy to look around for villains—to blame the colleges for charging too much money, the professors for assigning too much work, the parents for pushing their children too far, and the students for driving themselves too hard. But there are no villains: only victims.

“In the late 1960s.” one dean told me. “The typical question that I got from students was ‘Why is there so much suffering in the world’ or ‘how I can make a contribution?’ Today it’s ‘Do you think it would look better for getting into law school if I did a double major in history and political science, or just majored in one of them?’” many other deans confirmed this pattern. One said: “They are trying to find an edge—the intangible something that will look better on paper if two students are about equal.”

Note the emphasis on looking better. The transcript has become a sacred document, the passport to security. How one appears on paper is more important than how one appears in person. A is for Admirable and B is for Borderline, even though, in Yale’s official system of grading, A means “excellent” and B means “very good.” Today, looking very good is no longer good enough, especially for students who hope to go on to law school or medical school. They know that entrance into the better schools will be an entrance into the better law firms and better medical practices where they will make a lot of money. They also know that the odds are harsh. Yale Law School, for instance, matriculates 170students from an applicant pool of 3,700; Harvard enrolls 550 from a pool of 7,000.

It’s all very well for those of us who write letters of recommendation for our students to stress the qualities of humanity that will make them good lawyers or doctors. And it’s nice to think that admission officers are ready reading our letters and looking for the extra dimension of commitment or concern. Still, it would be hard for a student not to visualize these officers shuffling so many transcripts studded with As that they regard a B as positively shameful.

The pressure is almost as heavy on students who just want to graduate and get a job. Long gone are the days of the “gentleman’s C.” when students journeyed through college with a certain relaxation, sampling a wide variety of courses-music, art, philosophy, classics, anthropology, poetry, religion—that would send them out as liberally educated men and women. If I were an employer I would rather employ graduates who have this range and curiosity than those who narrowly pursued safe subjects and high grades. I know countless students whose inquiring minds exhilarate me. I like to hear the play of their ideas. I do not know if they are getting As or Cs, and I do not care. I also like them as people. The country needs them, and they will find satisfying jobs. I tell them to relax. They cannot.

Nor can I blame them. They live in a brutal economy. Tuition, room, and board at most private colleges now come to at least $7,000, not counting books and fees. This might seem to suggest that the colleges are getting rich. But they are equally battered by inflation. Tuition covers only 60 percent of what it costs to educate a student, and ordinarily the remainder comes from what college receives in endowments, grants, and gifts. Now, the remainder keeps being swallowed by the cruel costs—higher every year—of just opening the doors. Heating oil is up. Insurance is up. Postage is up. Health-premium costs are up. Everything is up. Deficits are up. We are witnessing in American the creation of a brotherhood of paupers—colleges, parents, and students, joined by the common bond of debt.

Today it is not unusual for a student, even if he works part time at college and full time during the summer, to accrue $5,000 in loans after four years—loans that he must start to repay within one year after graduation. Exhorted at commencement to go forth into the world, he is already behind as he goes forth. How could he not feel under pressure throughout college to prepare for this day of reckoning? I have used “he,” incidentally, only for brevity. Women at Yale are under no less pressure to justify their expensive education to themselves, their parents, and society. In fact, they are probably under more pressure. For although they leave college superbly equipped to bring fresh leadership to traditionally male jobs, society has not yet caught up with this fact.

Along with economic pressure goes parental pressure. Inevitably, the two are deeply intertwined.

I see many students taking pre-medical courses with joyless tenacity. They go off to their labs as if they were going to the dentist. It saddens me because I know tem in other corners of their life as cheerful people.

“Do you want to medical school?” I asked them.

“I guess so,” they say, without conviction, or “Not really.”

“Then why are you going?”

“Well, my parents want me to be a doctor. They are paying all this money and …”

Poor students, poor parents, they are caught in one of the oldest webs of love and duty and guilt. The parents mean will; they are trying to steer their sons and draughts toward a secure future. But the sons and daughter want to major in history or classics or philosophy—subjects with no “practical” value. Where’s the payoff on the humanities? It’s not easy to persuade such loving parents that the humanities do indeed pay off. The intellectual faculties developed by studying subjects like history and classics—an ability to synthesize and relate, to weigh cause and effect, to see events in perspective—are just the faculties that make creative leaders in business or almost any general field. Still, many fathers would rather put their money on courses that point toward specific profession—courses that are pre-law, pre-medical, pre-business, or, as I sometimes heard it put, “pre-rich.”

But the pressure on students is severe. They are truly torn. One part of them feels obliged to fulfill their parents’ expectations; after all, their parents are older and presumably wiser. Another part tells them that the expectations that are right for their parents are not right for them.

I know a student who wants to be an artist. She is very obviously an artist and will be a good one—she has already had several modest local exhibits. Meanwhile she is growing as a well-round person and taking humanistic subjects that will enrich the inner resources out of which her art will grow. But her father is strongly opposed. He thinks that an artist is a “dumb” thing to be. The student vacillates and tries to please everybody. She keeps up with her art somewhat furtively and takes some of the “dumb” courses her father wants her to take—at least they are dumb courses for her. She is a free spirit on a campus of tense students—no small achievement in it—and she deserves to follow her muse.

Peer pressure and self-induced pressure are also intertwined, and they begin almost at the beginning of freshman year.

“I had a freshman student I’ll call Linda,” one dean told me, “who came in and said she was under terrible pressure because her roommate, Barbara, was much brighter and studied all the time. I could not tell her that Barbara had come in two hours earlier to say the same thing about Linda.”

The story is almost funny—except that it is not. It is symptomatic of all the pressure put together. When every student thinks every other student is working harder and doing better, the only solution is to study harder still. I see students going off to the library every night after dinner and coming back when it closes at midnight. I wish they would sometimes forget about their peers and go to a movie. I hear the clacking of typewriters in the hours before dawn. I see the tension in their eyes when exams are approaching and papers are due: “Will I get everything done?”

Probably they won’t. They will get blocked. They will sleep. They will oversleep. They will bug out.

Part of the problem is that they are expected to do. A professor will assign five page papers. Several students will start writing ten page papers to impress him. Then more students will write ten page papers, and a few will raise the ante to fifteen. Pity the poor student who is still just doing the assignment.

“Once you have twenty or thirty percent of the student population deliberately overexerting,” one dean points out, “It’s bad for everybody. When a teacher gets more and more effort from his class, the student who is doing normal work can be perceived as not doing well. The tactic work, psychologically.”

Why cannot the professor just cut back and not accept longer papers? He can, and he probably will. But by then the term will be half over and the damage done. Grade fever is highly contagious and not easily reversed. Besides, the professor’s main concern is with his course. He knows his students only in relation to the course and does not know that they are also overexerting in their other courses. Nor is it really his business. He did not sign up for dealing with the student as a whole person and with all the emotional baggage the student brought along from home. That’s what deans, masters, chaplains, and psychiatrists are for.

To some extent this is nothing new: a certain number of professors have always been self-contained islands of scholarship and shyness, more comfortable with books than with people. But the new pauperism has widened the gap still further, for professors who actually like to spend time with students do not have as much time to spend. They are also overexerting. If they are young, they are busy trying to publish in order not to perish, hanging by their figure nails onto a shrinking profession.

If they are old and tenured, they are buried under the duties of administering departments—as departmental chairmen or members of committees—that have been thinned out by the budgetary axe.

Ultimately it will be the students’ own business to break the circles in which they are trapped. They are too young to be prisoners of their parents’ dreams and their classmates’ fears. They must be jolted into believing into themselves as unique men and women who have the power to shape their own future.

“Violence is being done to the undergraduate experience,” says Carlos Hortas. “College should be open-ended: at the end it should open many, many roads. Instead, students are choosing their goal in advance, and their choices narrow as they go along. It’s almost as if they think that the country has been codified in the type of jobs that exist-that they’ve got to fit into certain slots. Therefore, fit into the best paying slot.”

“They ought to take chances. Not taking chances will lead to life of colorless mediocrity. They’ll be comfortable. But something in the spirit will be missing.”

I have painted too drab a portrait of today’s students, making them seem a solemn lot. That is only half of their story; if they were so dreary I wouldn’t so thoroughly enjoy their company. The other half is that they are easy to like. They are quick to laugh and to offer friendship. They are not introverts. They are usually kind and are more considerate of one another than any student generation I have known.

Nor are they so obsessed with their studies that they avoid sports and extracurricular activities. On the contrary, they juggle their crowded hours to play on a variety of teams, perform with musical and dramatic groups, and write for campus publications. But this in turn is one more cause of anxiety. There are too many choices. Academically, they have 1,300 courses to select from; outside class they have to decide how much spare time they can spare and how to spend it.

This means that they engage in fewer extracurricular pursuits than their predecessors did. If they want to row on the crew and play in the symphony they will eliminate one; in the ‘60s they would have done both. They also tend to choose activities that are self-limiting. Drama, for instance, is flourishing in all twelve of Yale’s residential colleges, as it never has before. Students hurl themselves into these productions—as actors, directors, carpenters, and technicians—with a dedication to create the best possible play, knowing that the day will come when the run will end and they can get back to their studies.

They also cannot afford to be the willing slave of organizations like the Yale Daily News. Last spring at the one-hundredth anniversary banquet of that paper—who’s past chairmen include such once and future kings as Potter Stewart, Kingman Brewster, and William F. Buckley, Jr.—much was made of the fact that the editorial staff used to be small and totally committed and that “newsies” routinely worked fifty hours a week. In effect they belonged to a club; Newsies is how they defined themselves at Yale. Today’s students will one or two articles a week, when he can, and he defines himself as a student. I’ve never heard the word Newsie except at the banquet.

If I have described the modern undergraduate primarily as a driven creature who is largely ignoring the blithe spirit inside who keeps trying to come out and play, it’s because that’s where the crunch is, not only at Yale but throughout American education. It’s why I think we should all be worried about the values that are nurturing a generation so fearful of risk and so goal-obsessed at such an early age.

I tell students that there is no one “right” way to get ahead—that each of them is a different person, starting from a different point and bound for a different destination. I tell neither them that change is a tonic and that all the slots are not codified nor the frontiers closed. One of my ways of telling them is to invite men and women who have achieved success outside the academic world to come and talk informally with my students during the year. They are heads of companies or ad agencies, editors of magazines, politicians, public officials, television magnates, labor leaders, business executives, Broadway products, artists, writers, economists, photographers, scientists, historians—a mixed bag of achievers.

I asked them to say a few words about how they got started. The students assume that they started in their present profession and knew all along that it was what they wanted to do. Luckily for me, most of them got into their field by a circuitous route, to their surprise, after many detours. The students are startled. They can hardly conceive of a career that was not pre-planned. They can hardly imagine allowing the hand of God or chance to nudge them down some unforeseen trail.

11. To Err Is Wrong

In the summer of 1979, Boston Red Sox first baseman Carl Yastrzemski became the fifteenth player in baseball history to reach the three thousand hit plateaus. This event drew a lot of media attention, and for about a week prior to the attainment of this goal, hundreds of reports covered Yaz’s every more. Finally, one reporter asked, “Hey Yaz, aren’t you afraid all of this attention will go to your head?” Yastrzemski replied, “I look at this way: in my career I’ve been up to bat over ten thousand times. That means I’ve been unsuccessful at the plate over seven thousand times. That fact alone keeps me from getting a swollen head.”?

Most people consider success and failure as opposites, but they are actually both products of the same process. As Yaz suggest, an activity that produces a hit may also produce a miss. It is the same with creative thinking; the same energy that generates good creative ideas also produces errors.

Many people, however, are not comfortable with errors. Our educational system, based on “the right answer” belief, cultivates our thinking in another, more conservative way. From an early age, we are taught that right answers are good and incorrect answers are bad. This value is deeply embedded in the incentive system used in most schools:

Right over 90% of the time = “A”

Right over 80% of the time = “B~”

Right over 70% of the time = “C~” Right over 60% of the time = “D~” Less than 60% correct, you fail.

From this we learn to be right as often as possible and to keep our mistakes to a minimum. We learn, in other words, that “to err is wrong.

Playing It Safe

With this kind of attitude, you aren’t going to be taking too many chances. If you learn that failing even a litter penalizes you (e.g., being wrong only 15% of the time garners you only a “B” performance), you learn not to make mistakes. And more important, you learn not to put yourself to situation where you might fall. This leads to conservative thought pattern designed to avoid the stigma our society puts on “failure”.

I have a friend who recently graduated from college with a Master’s degree in Journalism. For the last six month, she has been trying to find a job, but to no avail. I talked with her about situation, and realized that her problem is that she doesn’t know how to fail. She went through eighteen years of schooling to try any approaches where she might fail. She has been conditioned to believe that failure is bad in and of itself, rather than a potential stepping-stone to new ideas.

Look around. How many middle managers, housewives, administrators, teachers, and other people do you see who are to try anything new because of this failure? Most of us have learned not to make mistakes in public. As a result, we remove ourselves from many learning experience except for those occurring in the most private of circumstances.

Different Logic

From a practical point of view, “to err is wrong” makes sense. Our survival in the everyday world requires us to perform thousand of small tasks without failure. Think about it: you wouldn’t last very long if you were to step out in front of traffic or stick your hand a pot of boiling water. In addition, engineers whose bridges collapse, stock brokers who lose money for their clients, and copywriters whose ad campaigns decrease sales won’t keep their jobs very long.

Nevertheless, too great an adherence to the belief “to err is wrong” can greatly undermine your attempts to generate new ideas. If you are more concerned with producing right answers than generating original ideas, you’ll probably make uncritical use of the rules, formulae, and procedures used to obtain these right answers. By doing this, you’ll by-pass the germinal phase of the creative process, and thus spend litter time testing assumptions, challenging the rules, asking what-if questions, or just playing around with the problem. All of these techniques will produce some incorrect answers, but in the germinal phase errors are viewed as a necessary by-product of creative thinking. As Yaz would put it, “if you want the hits, be prepared for the misses.” That’s the way the game of life goes.

Errors as Stepping Stones

Whenever an error pops up, the usual response is “Jeez, another screw up, what went wrong this time?” the creative thinker, on the other hand, will realize the potential value of errors, and perhaps say something like, “Would you look at that! Where can it lead our thinking?” and then he or she will go on to use the error as a stepping stone to a new idea. As a matter of fact, the whole history of discovery is filed with people who used erroneous assumptions and failed ideas as stepping-stones to new ideas. Columbus thought he was finding a shorter route to India. Johannes Kepler stumbled on to the idea of interplanetary gravity because of assumptions that were right for the wrong reasons. And, Thomas Edison knew 1800 ways not to build a light bulb.

The following story about the automotive genius Charles Kettering exemplifies the spirit of working through erroneous assumptions to good ideas. In 1912, when the automobile industry was just beginning to grow, Kettering was interested in improving gasoline engine efficiency. The problem he faced was“knockthe phenomenon in which gasoline takes too long to burn in the cylinder-thereby reducing efficiency.

Kettering began searching for ways to eliminate the “knock.” He thought to him, “How can I get the gasoline to combust in the cylinder at an earlier time?” the key concept here is “early”. Searching for analogous situations, he looked around for models of “things that happen early.” He thought of historical models, physical models, and biological models. Finally, he remembered a particular plant, the trailing arbutus, which “happens early,” i.e., it blooms in the snow (“earlier” than other plants). One of this plant’s chief characteristics is its’ red leaves, which help the plant retain light at certain wavelengths. Kettering figured that it must be the red color, which made the trailing arbutus bloom earlier.

Now came the critical step in Kettering’s chain of thought. He asked himself, “How can I make the gasoline red?” perhaps I’ll put red dye in the gasoline—maybe that’ll make it combust earlier.” He looked around his workshop, and found that he didn’t have any red dye. But he did happen to have some iodine—perhaps that would do. He added the iodine to the gasoline and, lo and behold, the engine didn’t “knock”.

篇7:2024年高考作文指导:议论文的论证写作技巧

全文共 1406 字

+ 加入清单

议论要切中要害,始终紧扣论点,不游离于论点之外,不偷换论题。离开论点的论述,是无从谈及论证深刻的。小编收集了议论文的论证写作技巧,欢迎阅读。

一、透过现象看本质

钱钟书先生在《论快乐》一文中是这样论述的:先引述《西游记》里小猴子对孙行者说“天上一日,下界一年”,借天上比人间活得舒服快乐,来说明快乐是人的一种心理。然后宕开一笔,“永远快乐”不但渺茫得不能实现,并且荒谬得不能成立。继而论述“快乐”在人生里好比引诱小孩子吃药的方糖,更像跑狗场里引诱狗赛跑的电兔子”,生动形象地说明了快乐在人生中的作用。接着指出:“把快乐分成肉体和精神两种是最糊涂的分析”,一切快乐的享受都属于精神的。最后归纳指出,发现快乐是由精神来决定的,它是人类史的又进一步。假如,我们来谈快乐,你会怎样论证呢?你能透过生活现象挖掘出“快乐这一习见现象的本质吗?

二、揭示问题找诱因

世界是由互相联系的事物构成的,生活中发生的事存在着某种因果联系,在进行分论证时要揭示隐藏在事件背后的深层原因。

2005年高考优秀作文《出入红楼》有这样一段精彩的议论揭示出一部《红楼梦》倾倒几多后人,让众多专家学者倾其毕生精力,还不能尽得其珍的原因:

《红楼梦》,打开了大观园的大门,让好奇的后人一窥当年封建王朝奢华辉煌的殿堂;曹公才华横溢,诗词歌赋信手拈来,如粒粒明珠嵌入其中;建筑设计侃侃而出,几笔勾出一个金碧辉煌的大观园,饮食医理无一不通,衣饰礼仪无一不全,洋洋洒洒如数家珍。曹公秉世之才,堪称语言大师。披阅十载,呕心沥血,字字看来皆是血泪,达到刘勰所说“句有可削,足见其疏;字不得减,乃知其密”中真正的惜墨如金的境界。

现实生活中会有诸多的现象发生,如少男少女染发烫发,追逐明星,超现实消费,你能透过这些现象揭示出产生这些现象的心理诱因吗?

三、抓住要害开药方

议论要切中要害,始终紧扣论点,不游离于论点之外,不偷换论题。例如,以“跨越性格的障碍”为话题,就要紧扣“性格障碍”——不健全的性格(自我封闭,不善交流沟通,缺乏团队协作精神,孤芳自赏等性格缺陷)会影响我们的终生发展。有的同学大谈挑战逆境如何超越自我的问题,没有抓住论点。因此,离开论点的论述,是无从谈及论证深刻的。

抓住要害还要从若干现象的分析中,总结出一般规律,并指出解决问题的办法。司马光在《训俭示康》中,以父亲的身份,向儿子进行节俭教育。文中有道理分析,更有大量的出国留学网具体事例,摆事实,讲道理。正反论述,有很强的说服力。文中批判“走卒类士服,夫蹑丝履”虽有封建等级的观念和鄙视劳动人民的思想局限,但他总结出的“由俭入奢易,由奢入俭难”的规律是何其深刻!

四、运用辩证明事理

辩证法告诉我们要客观地全面发展地看问题,不要主观地孤立地静止地看问题;要两点论,不要一点论;要抓住矛盾的主要方面,分清主次,不要一叶障目、不见泰山。在议论文的写作中运用辩证法认识问颢、分析问题就会有深度。又如,就“平凡与自豪”这个话题,写一篇文章。这是典型的关系型作文题,这一话题能正确引导考生认识世界,认识自我,世界是多姿多彩的;“每一滴露珠,都能反射一轮太阳”。每一个体都有其存在的意义和价值,世界不独是名人与胜者的天下。

很明显,这个作文导向是正确对待平凡,在人们的认识中,伟大与平凡是两极,平凡与平庸相等,鄙弃平凡是应该的,但只赞颂伟大而不甘于平凡,轻视平凡却是错误的。忠于职守辛勤耕耘的人,不管是名人还是农夫都是自豪的。

篇11:英语考研作文命题依据及写作技巧

全文共 1564 字

+ 加入清单

导语:小编提醒大家,要想把作文写好,要想在考研写作中得高分,平时一定得多阅读优秀的范文,特别是一些漂亮精彩的句型。同时也有必要掌握一些写作模式和技巧,不断地模仿练习,最后才能真正打造出高分作文。

一、命题依据

考研话题牵涉面广,包罗万象,变幻莫测。但从历年考研真题研究中可以发现写作基本上可粗略地划分为两大类话题:永恒话题(everlastingtopic)和热点话题(hotissue)。所谓永恒话题,是指那些不以时间和空间的转移为转移的话题。这类话题一般都是一些宏观的大话题,没有明显的时代印痕。如有关社会道德范畴的话题。另一大类是热点话题,即近几年或某一年特殊的社会现象, 媒体普遍报道过或公众普遍谈论的话题。如AdvertisementonTV(93),温室的花朵经不起风雨(2003)等,所以,平时在生活和学习中留意类似话题的英文素材预以备战不妨是个好的办法。

二、写作技巧

1.精心构造全文的引言段

考研作文阅卷老师每天工作量很大,工作时间也较长,因此长时间批改水平参差不齐、质量高下不一的作文难免感到疲劳,厌倦,甚至气恼。据测试统计,一口气读完12 篇后才走神的人极少,定力惊人。因此,在考研写作三段制中,第一段最能吸引他们的目光和注意力,因为考研作文采用的是总体评分法(GlobalScoring),作文评卷老师往往主要凭借第一段的总体印象打分。有人把文章的第一段说成是黄金段落,说老师就是在这一段中不断地“淘金”。这一说法是很有道理的,因此,作文要想得高分,一定要精心构造全文的第一段,最大限度地满足阅卷老师的期待心理,力争给他留下良好的第一印象。经验告诉我们,阅卷老师在看完文章的第一段后就已基本上给文章定了分数档次,即使在第二,第三段中发现文章中的其他一些美中不足之处,他也只是微调几分,总体分数还是比先定的档次低的文章要好得多。总之,引言段在全文三段中的重要性再怎么强调也不过分。如果要按重要性依次递减的顺序来排的话,那么应是引言在先,其次是结尾段,再次是拓展段。

2.制造语言的闪光点

“言之无文,行而不远”,同理语言干瘪平淡,让人看之面目可憎,读后味如嚼蜡。要想攫住阅卷老师匆匆的一瞥,留住他们的兴奋点,就非得在语言上猛下功夫,多制造些表达上的闪光点。语言是思维的外壳,语言的好坏直接影响到实际作文分数的高低。语言表达的亮点体现在小到一个词,短语大到一个句子中。高分作文往往是“锱铢必较”,几乎字字计较。很多人作文分数很低往往是因为用词面太窄。当然,词汇的积累是有个过程的。可惜的是,很多同学只能认词,却不能再现,更不用说写作时运用了。

3.避免中国式英语

母语为非英语的人学习英语时往往会将母语的思维和表达方式直接迁移到英语表达当中。中国人学英语时往往会受母语根深蒂固的影响,最易造出中国腔的英语。有人把“价格便宜”直接写成“The price is cheap”,把“这件事小菜一碟”说成“This is a small dish”,让人看后苦笑不得。因此要尽量摆脱中国试英语,方法看来只有一条:多看外国人写的文章,多多阅读。不难想象,阅卷老师如果在短短的二百字文章中到处看到Chinglish,他无法使自己对你文章的印象好起来。

4.尽量有路标词

路标词(signalword)又称衔接词(connectives)就像灯塔为在茫茫大海中航行的船只指引方向一样,它能突出文章的层次性和逻辑性。英语文章讲究启承转合。“启”就是开启观点:“承”就是接着话茬进一步发展论证或补充:“转”就是讲相反或对立的观点:“合”就是总结概括。一篇文章若没有路标词便会杂乱无章的乱堆在一起,给人凌乱没有条理的感觉。标志词或衔接词的作用绝对不可小觑。

此外,多种句型的交替使用,文章脉络层次的分明,论据的合理充分等在写作中都应引起足够的重视。

篇16:满分作文记叙文的写作技巧

全文共 1538 字

+ 加入清单

记叙文写作是中考作文的“主打”文体,也是平时写作训练最重要的任务,而且许多考生也习惯于写记叙文,那么,满分作文记叙文写作技巧有哪些你知道吗?下面是小编为大家搜集整理出来的有关于满分作文记叙文的写作技巧,希望可以帮助到大家!

技巧一:中心突出,立意深远

首先,立意必须集中而突出。即使需要使用较多的素材也只能统一在一个中心之下,这样才不会散而无主,不至于喧宾夺主。

其次,记叙文务必符合积极、健康、深刻、高远的立意要求。

其三,要善于从日常小事中发现深刻、有时代气息的主题,善于从事件的表面向深处挖掘,使主题变得深刻起来。

其四,运用对比可以让人物的形象更鲜明,事件的中心揭示得更深刻。如将美与丑、善与恶、强与弱、悲与喜对比,将人或事的前后变化对比,将不同的人对某人某事的态度对比等等。

另外,你也可以用环境描写来渲染气氛,暗示事件发展,衬托人物心情等,从而彰显主旨。如一篇《责任重于泰山》的作文。

作者先用“每个人都有着每个人的责任,责任重于泰山”作题记,然后分别用一、二、三作小标题,依次叙写了张老师出人意料地带病冒雪上课、检察长在战友(因救护自己而牺牲)儿子的判决书上签字前矛盾的思想斗争、县委书记为了泄洪抢险而顾大局舍小家决定炸除自己从小生活的村庄这三件事,说明了给学生上课是教师的责任、严格执法是领导者的责任、保护国家利益是所有公民的责任,从而使“不同的位置有不同的责任”的主旨得以凸显。

技巧二:详略得当,内容充实

选材要鲜活。即选构要真实、新颖、典型,从生活中捕捉精彩的典型素材,筛选出那些最高兴、最悲痛、最深刻、最难忘、最能打动人心、最能展现时代风貌的典型事件,或者概括提炼,或者放大细节,或者定格镜头,必能写出具有、独特个性、深刻感悟和超级感染力的佳作来。

情节通常包括事件的开端、发展、高潮、结局等几部分,如作文《一张贺卡》,作者以“贺卡”为线,围绕一个穷学生给老师“送贺卡”这件事展开生动描述,把“买贺卡”“送贺卡”“卖贺卡”三个场面一线串起,使文章曲折生动、感人至深;但在处理素材的详略时,却略写“送贺卡”,而把自己“买贺卡”前的思想斗争、老师“卖贺卡”后的感动心理浓墨重彩描述,这样就突出了一个正直、慈爱、善良的老师形象。

技巧三:情感真挚,叙中含情

在刻画人物时,要将真情实感融入到细致、生动的人物描写和事件叙述中去,人物有了真情实感便获得了鲜活的生命。可以通过细节描写、选用情感鲜明的词语、打造抒情语句来流露真情。例如《懂你,懂你》中描写丰富细腻、真挚感人。作者将“我”的深切感受、心理活动和母亲的动作、神态和语言描写结合起来,一个,心思细密、宽厚温和、体贴女儿的母亲形象跃然纸上。

技巧四:结构清爽,叙事生动

首先结构要完整,写人叙事要清晰。应善于运用前后照应、一线串珠等技法组织材料。其次叙事要生动,情节要曲折。叙事写人时可以使用前后对比法、设置悬念法、抑扬生变法、虚构科幻法等来使文章尺水兴波、妙趣横生。如一篇《我的这杯“苦咖啡”》的作文,作者分别以“麦田?烈日”“村边?夏夜”“小院?清早”“医院?黄昏”为小标题,按地点和时间变化为序依次描绘了四个生活场景,表现了作者和爷爷之间细腻深厚的祖孙情。这种以情为线的行文,立意、情感、事件以一贯之,极具结构美和情感美。

技巧五:个性人物,形象鲜明

写人记事的记叙文大多是通过塑造人物形象来揭示中心的。你可以通过个性分明的外貌、神态、服饰、语言、动作、心理等描写来展现人物的思想感情和性格特征。例如通过不同人物的语言便能体现出各自文雅有礼、粗鲁低俗、豪爽干脆、优柔寡断、风趣幽默、干巴木讷等迥异的性格。你也可以随着事件的发展或观察角度的变化,对人物进行多层次描写,或将正面描写与侧面描写相结合,特别要注意细节描写和概括描写相结合。

篇18:初中英语作文写作技巧精选

全文共 1003 字

+ 加入清单

要点:实际上中考英语写作就等于两个字,翻译!因为中考英语写作一般会给出几个要点,要求必须在文章中有所体现。文章写的再好,只要缺少要点就会扣分。所以要点,也就是文章的第二段内容,要做到全,围绕中心。

结构:中考最流行的结构就是三段式,深受各地区中考英语写作阅卷老师的喜爱。为什么尼?因为这种结构十分清晰。“观点——要点——总结”让人一目了然。三段式的第一段:简单明了,开门见山,不超过2句话,如,我们想表达小强很强壮,第一段直接说XQis extremely strong。观点明确,这一句足矣。

第二段:分2-3点说为什么他强壮。1. 每天吃10顿饭,He has ten mealseveryday!详举吃的是什么。2. 每天运动2小时,He does exercise 2 hours a day!详举做了什么运动。

第三段:经过第二段的论证,可以得出结论。但请注意,不能完全照抄第一段,要有升华。也可以提出希望和建议等。如,Howstrong and robust XQ is!I hope to be him one day!

逻辑:这里的逻辑实际指的就是逻辑词。最常用的就是表示递进的,转折的,总结的逻辑词等。递进:除了first,second,third,finally等还可以使用高级点的,如first of all(首先),in addition,whatsmore,moreover(都是另外的意思),in a word,all inall(表示总结的)。转折:but,yet,however等。真正有经验的阅卷老师会很注意这些逻辑连接词,因为这些词体现了这个文章的思路。

语法:其他几点都不是硬性的要求,不那样做不能说是错,只能说是不好,但是语法却是硬性的。如,单词的使用,时态等。

亮点:当我们将前八个字都做得很完美的时候也只能得到一个二等文的上。要想得到一等文,最后两个字,亮点至关重要。大家设想如果我们是阅卷老师。有两篇写人美丽的作文摆在我们面前,都是结构清晰的三段式,要点都很全,都用了一些逻辑词,都没有语法错误,但是A篇只用了beautiful,good-looking,B篇却用到了attractive,charming,catching等,我坚信正常人都会给B篇高分的。这些高级一点的词汇,词组,句型便是我们得到一等文的最有力的绝招。所以,以后写英语作文要养成一般词汇限量用的好习惯。

篇19:小说的写作技巧

全文共 7517 字

+ 加入清单

小说剧情是有节奏感的,它就像一首钢琴曲,它的旋律有轻、重、急、缓,曲子在缓和、温顺的时候,或激情、高昂的时候,都要经过深思熟虑的设计才可以完成。小说的写作技巧有哪些?下面小编给大家带来小说的写作技巧,欢迎大家阅读。

一、人物个性的刻画

1、人物表现的要素有:

a、独有的表情 b、习惯的动作 c、常用的对白 d、思想

y、意念和欲望 f、弱点和缺陷 g、角色的好恶习性

2、这些要素的运用:

以上要素都可以当作创作的工具,这些工具一定要善于运用,你可以将这些设定条列出来,然后有表现的部分做出记号,比较重要的个性部分,应该要不断重复的表现出来,以加深读者对角色的印象。

二、配角的运用和衬托

1、所有的配角,都是为衬托主角而设定出来的。

配角的类型:正面——导师型、爱慕型、协助型

不确定——神秘型、竞争型、丑角型

负面——陷害型

2、 协助型:时常和主角形影不离地出现,有难同当,有富同享的必备角色。

导师型:给予主角正确知识和观念的辅助角色爱慕型:主角心仪的对象,通常也会是(男)女主角,对主角心境影响很大,是影响整个剧情变化的重要角色。

神秘型:对主角会有明显的正面或负面影响,绝不会自己报上名来,通常他都会被神格化。

竞争型:实力一定不主角先占优势,但本身会对主角的隐藏实力感到兴奋或畏惧,不会阻碍主角的进步,反而会促进主角的成长,成为足以和自己竞争的对手。

陷害型:通常为了得到主角拥有的某样东西,或者是本身看主角不顺眼等不同理由,经常和主角作对,也是剧情中不可或缺的角色。

丑角型:常常会扯人后腿,作出很白痴、荒唐的事,为搞笑而声的角色。

3、 每个角色都有他必要的功能,就象在线游戏一样。

在你的剧情中必须不断地制造平衡,再将平衡打破,因此角色之间的互动也就相应的重要,正面的力量太强时,就表示危机感不足;负面的力量太强时,就表示主角的地位要崩溃。在这样的堆栈下不断地制造出高潮。

三、桥段的发挥和设定

1、对比法桥段:在主角的定位上,安排另一个桥段,与主角的设定做嫉妒的反差对比,这样的方式,容易让读者有一个度量的标准,更能突现出主角的不同。

如:一个走投无路的败家子遇到一贫如洗,但对未来充满希望的主角,两者产生极大的反差,更能衬托主角,塑造他的形象。

2、堆栈法桥段:把桥段的布局事先安排到一个高度,再将主角叠到这个高度上,自然主角就不费吹灰之力到达最高的位置。

如:一个传说中的剑客,,剑术相当精湛,没有任何人是他的敌手,一些挑战他的都在三招内被斩毙。但是离奇的是,在对上一个不起眼的中年流浪汉时被一击打败了,而当众人崇拜他时出现了一个十七八岁的少年,流浪汉称他为师傅。这样的范例说明了少年可能是更厉害的角色,背后或许有很多的想象空间,看是我们已经将这少年的能力和地位等级,运用其他人的力量拉到了一个非凡的高点。

3、陷阱法桥段:运用桥段将主角慢慢逼向绝境,让读者一直为主角的危机而担心,再进行一个大的转变,使主角的位置正反颠倒,产生极大的落差,以突主角的能力。原则是,设定持续低潮的桥段,让转变过程迅速成为高潮,使主角能力加倍地突显。

比如:原本一直处在被欺负困境的主角,到最后才让读者知道,原来是主角一直在“大智若愚”,使得后期敌对方突然处在了下风。

四、善用伏笔

伏笔是作者为了表现某段重要的剧情,在先前便设了相关的桥段或提示,到故事进行了一个程度后,再将这个桥段或提示呼应出来的手法。

伏笔就象是一个隐藏的炸弹,它让剧情产生更多的变化,它的表现方式可能只有出现一次的画面,也可能是一段不经意的桥段,甚至有可能是一句对白;伏笔的埋设,不要和伏笔的呼应脱离太久,这样,读者的记忆可能会消失,而失去了伏笔的意义;伏笔的描述也可以是连续性的,在一个个段落中埋下伏笔的一个片段,最后在全部组合起来,这样方式的可以让伏笔体现的时间不断向后延伸。

1、伏笔离不开主题这是一个不变的原则,故事的重点只有一个,所有的因素都要因这样的原则而产生,伏笔的内容不要和主题无关,否则不但达不到效果,也有可能削弱了故事的力量。

2、不要使用过多的伏笔过多不同的伏笔,反而会让读者搞不清楚状况,失去了伏笔的意义,除非是有连贯性的伏笔,做连续性的埋设;过度的买弄伏笔,也会让故事的主题变的模糊不清。

3、成为转化的力量与高潮的爆发点伏笔的设计,目的是出乎读者的意料之外,这样的设计,也是剧情中转变的一种方式。伏笔的揭晓和呼应,时间点相当重要,这也牵涉到剧情的节奏问题,如果我们能善用伏笔,并在高潮点爆发,这是最好的表现方式。

4、记得收尾对伏笔的埋设,我们一定要相当的清楚,否则会变得虎头蛇尾,到最后突然小时了却没有清楚交代;前头埋伏了几个复辟,到最后就一定要相互呼应几个伏笔,如果我们的剧情太过复杂,建议最好能做笔记,再在编剧过程中不断地提醒自己,以免剧情结束后有所遗漏。

五、剧情的节奏

1、过山车原理我们说平淡的戏,可能提不起读者的兴趣,但是都是高潮的戏也会让读者过度紧张,变得麻痹;假设剧情的高低,就像一条起伏的曲线,我们可以分析出一个原则,就是高低起伏越大的剧情,达到的效果就越惊人,就像是游乐园的过山车一样,高低落差越大的段落,乘客尖叫的声音也就越凄惨,刺激的过程越高。我们可以称这样的原理叫做过山车原理。

2、剧情的拍子但是这里我们还要补充的是节奏。

如果高低起伏是坐标上的Y轴,那么X轴的部分可以说是拍子;音乐中一个小节可以是一拍,二分之一拍,也可以快到八分之一拍;节奏的快慢,相对的影响到人的情绪起伏,慢的拍子,给人平稳的情绪,而越快的拍子,则给人紧张的情绪,这样的原理也适用在剧情的结构上。

这里,大家应该注意到了,为什么说艺术是相同的原理,这个节奏同样的也可以体现在美术作品、书法、颜色及符号上等,都是同样的原理。

3、运用快慢的搭配来控制读者的情绪

a、平稳剧情搭配慢节奏 b、冲击剧情搭配快节奏

六、吊读者的胃口

很多新人编的故事常犯的错误,就是直肠子一路通到底,想说什么就说什么,很多不错的点子,还没有酝酿的过程,就直接演出来了。上面已经说了很多的激发,目的是在增加我们可以表演的手法,将我们想表达的重点,酝酿到最佳时机再爆发出来。明白地说,小说就像作家与读者的斗智,当我们安排的剧情,在一开始就已经被读者知道结局的话,读者还有想看下去的欲望吗?

1、让读者上钩

其实作者就是故事的主宰,你就是神,可以决定剧中任何角色的命运;同样的,你也可以决定你最精彩的点子,要在什么时候出现,只要是读者最想知道的答案,你就肯定不能太早让读者知道,但是每个过程却透露出一点点片段的信息,让读者急着想知道,又不能知道,然后便慢慢地被你的剧情牵着走。

2、最佳时机谜底揭晓

而让读者知道解答的时机,就像是在钓鱼一样,拉杆的时间点一定要准确,当鱼上钩时,太早拉了,诱饵还没有进到鱼嘴,鱼会跑掉;太晚拉了,诱饵已经被吃了,鱼也会跑。太早将答案说出,读者对你的需求还没形成,效果会打折扣;而太晚将答案说出来,读者失去耐心也会跑了。收放之间一定要掌握好,如果没有信心的话,不妨多让几个好友看看,给予一些意见,作为你修正的参考。

七、掌握主题

小说最重要原则应该就是掌握主题。当我们在进行创作时,无论有什么再好的点子,都应该以不偏离主题为最高原则。

觉得什么好就加入什么,没有想法就不断地假如其他的想法,这样的编剧方式是不正确的。我看到不少的小说都偏离的主题,常常是因为有了突发灵感,或许是没有好的想法,编不下去,就加入很多与主题不相干的进去,违背了主题。

1、如何不偏题

如果是能够加分的灵感,那是求之不得,一定要加进去,如果没有任何可以结合的可能,那么,就请将这个想法储存起来,说不定可以作为下一部作品的创意,。如果真的想不出点子,建议你回到原点,看看你先前的设定,只要之前的工作都做足了,一定可以从中找到一个方向的,你也可以在看看已经完成的剧情,是否有什么地方是忘了交代,或者可以延伸的;以读者的角度,反复地在你的作品中观察找寻可以接续的方向,也是一种方法;再不然,你就搁下笔,离开你的作品,做些其他的事情,让自己放松一下,因为可能你已经钻进牛角里无法自拔。

2、多线架构的使用原则

有时我们也会使用难度较高的多线架构,这样的编剧手法需要比较熟练的经验,对于大长篇的剧情,多线构架也变得必要,因为出现的人物越来越多,要交代的故事也不会仅限于一个故事,多线架构的注意重点大致如下:a、前后呼应:故事的主构架是固定的,在剧情当中会出现分支的剧情,但是记住,分支剧情最后必须在归于主题上,,否则会变成无法收尾。

b、主次分明:就是主题在分支架构出现后,逐渐被分支架构取代,分支架构变成主架构,这就是主题产生偏移,也是我们最当心的忌讳。因此,我们必须分清架构的主从系,才不至于编到最后反客为主。

C、懂得割爱:志气那也提过,有时候我们回有太多的点子,巴不得全部都挤到一部作品上。其实,当我们的剧情已经相当扎实的时候,就不要再画蛇添足,这会让读者产生麻痹,或者边得难以阅读。太复杂的剧情,通常也不太容易被大众接受,毕竟,小说是一种大众化的商品,我们要符合的对象也是一般的读者,因此,有时候割爱是必须的,保留一些好的创意,做瑕疵长做的题材。

八、制造高潮

平淡的剧情未尝不是一种表现的形式,如果你能将故事说的很平淡,却有撼动人心,那你的功力可就非比寻常了;平淡的手法其实也暗藏高潮,只是埋藏的很好不被看到罢了,对于创作的新人来说,高潮起伏的剧情会远比平淡的剧情容易处理多了,我们要先学会如何制造高潮,待经验丰富之后,再慢慢学者如何将高潮暗藏在剧情中。

读者在阅读你的作品时,总是在期待着你制造的高潮,你精心的规划,漫长的经营,为的就是将剧情中最精彩的部分,深刻地表现出来,感动读者的心,让读者为你哭为你笑。但如果没有表现好,这个作品其实就算失败了。

1、集中所有力量为了高潮:当剧情顺利的进展了,我们就要集中所有的注意力,制造出剧情中的高潮,我们应当集中所有的技巧,在关键的高潮点爆发出来,这样的剧情才会深入人心。

所谓的技巧,如:时间的流动、节奏、吊胃口、创意、主线、人物、场景、伏笔等

2、多不如好:剧情中的高潮不要放在架构上无关紧要的地方,其实也等同于不要偏离主线,等同于前面所有经营的方向不要偏离主题,这样的效果才能扎扎实实地呈现出来。

3、出人意外:另外,高潮的表现方式,希望哪个不要太过公式化,以往见过的各种表现方式是可以供作参考,但是最好我们能在多用点心思去变化,虚则实之,实则虚之,在与读者的斗智过程中,尽量能出乎众人的意料之外,才会让读者惊叹,总之,多想一点,就会有所不同。

4、持续的高潮:持续性的高潮是否是一种忌讳呢?我们希望与众不同,就必须要脱离框架,有时,忌讳的使用也是非常手段,能够达到非常的效果,如果我们在前期积蓄的能量是足以发挥到第二甚至第三次的高潮,那么,我们使用持续的高潮又未尝不可。

但是使用连续高潮时,须注意对读者的刺激性会产生麻痹,因此,该收的时候就要收,适可而止。

九、人性是故事的心脏

这里以漫画为题材来讲述这个道理。

有不少画技超高的作品,却不是最热门的作品,而有些热门的作品画技却相当平庸,道理其实简单,画面只是吸引读者第一印象的要素。就像是我们在街上见到一个帅哥一样,通常会不自觉地看上一眼,只能说是喜欢,但是要真正爱上他,甚至一生一世,那你就会考虑他的内在了。如果他像个木头人虚有其表,可能放在你身边一星期你都会觉得碍眼。因此,除了吸引读者的第一眼之外,如何留住读者完整地看完你的作品而不觉得厌倦,就是决胜的关键了,想想看那些连载数十册的漫画巨着,是如何留住读者的心长达十年以上的光阴而不变,更是为之而疯狂地追捧。

(写到这里,我突然想到前几年,就是漫画作品《棋魂》很红的那段时期,中国的围棋协会,不知道叫什么来这,忘名了,只知道他在中国的围棋界享有很高的知名度,在他新出的围棋小说中却大量地抄袭《棋魂》这部作品,结果使他在上海签名会时被大量的《棋魂》迷臭骂,更是有人流着泪当着他的面撕掉他的小说。这是何等的痛心啊!中国的名人尽抄袭了日本的作品,作为《棋魂》迷的读者(包括大部分的漫画迷),是无法忍受的!结果他的网站论坛被骂的帖子超过 10000页,每天骂人的帖子接近1000页的数字增长。想想看,当是一部漫画作品就有那么多人的拥戴,这需何等的魅力。我想问问看,中国有几部的小说能达到这种效果?还有部《海贼王》的漫画,我看连载起码有个12年以上,拥护、支持它,为它而疯狂的漫迷有多少啊!他的销售书册有好几次位居日本漫画榜首,为什么?说白了,就因为是它可以让人大笑,也可以让人大哭的动漫作品,人物个性鲜明,故事发展令人匪夷所思,紧紧扣住“人性”来描述的作品。)

答案其实很简单,就是人性!我们必须给予剧中的角色有独特的性格,运用这些强烈的角色,将人性完整的表达出来。我们必须能控制读者的情绪,引发读者的人性,让读者该哭时狂哭,该笑时狂笑,这也就是戏剧的独特魅力。

因此设计选题时,人物也是担任相当重要的部分,有些好的题材,其实也是在人设前就已经成功了。记住设定选材时,也将人物与人性的表达重点预设进去。任何作品吸引读者目光的地方不是单纯的画技、华丽的语句,而是动人的故事,而动人的故事往往是由人性表现出来的。

十、同中求异

很多的经典题材或是成功的作品都是值得吸收参考的,世界上没有被创作出来的题材似乎已经很少了,对于我们的创作来说,经常会发现一个很多的创意题材,可能在很久以前已经有人做过了,或不久之后市面上出现雷同的题材,令你十分惋惜,这种撞车的情形是常常发生的。试想,当你的作品被忍耐怀疑有抄袭嫌疑的时候,你是不是会觉得无辜呢?

我们如何在信息和创意不断爆炸的年代中找到自己的定位,或者是在已经成功的题材中发现新的课题。即便是再经典的题材,因为时空的转换,和创作者成长环境的不同,也有机会出现不同的表达方式和新的内涵,因此,找出成功作品的骨架、精神及精彩的要素,加入自己新的想法及个人的特色重新包装,不难找出好的作品方向。

十一、格局的创意

不知道大家有没有看过电影的一些影视分析,大家都说张艺某的片子都是大格局,能做到像张艺某一样大格局的人为数不多的。

1、点型创意:这类型的创意,通常只用于一个小细节上,不适合做太长的延伸,在创作上是属于点缀的作用。

点型创意是一个独立的创意类型,她可以单独的存在,也可以任意地置入到剧情中需要的部分。

类似一句有趣的对白,或是一个搞笑的动作,这样的创意也能转换成为角色的口头禅或习惯动作。

在一个好的剧本里面,点型的创意是随时存在的,因为他就像一张完美的家具的装饰一样,让读者随时随刻都体会到作者的用心。

这样的创意是不具备延伸性的,我们在发想的阶段,如果是长篇的故事,则必须将这样的创意记录下来,无需放进故事骨架当中,因为发想阶段,筛选出重点是相当重要的,必须时割舍这样的创意也没有关系。

2、关键型创意:这类型的创意是属于剧情中重要桥段或转折点上的关键,他会影响到故事的延伸发展和呼应前头的伏笔,这样的创意也有可能形成一个短篇的故事关键型创意的特点就是他只为了某个单一的目的所产生的点子,不同于典型的创意,他的框架足以发挥到一个简单完整的故事。

关键型创意在长篇的故事当中,可以是一个段落的重要环节,数个关键型创意,便足以架构出一个长篇的故事。

发想时的重点,在于出人意料的情节转变,目的在于短时间内压缩读者的情绪,或引读者的注目。

长篇故事开场时的关键创意更是重要,因为读者在前几回的反应,决定了你这篇作品的后续生命,如果没有在一开始就运用关键型创意吸引住读者,后续的故事再精彩都可能徒劳无功。

3、架构型创意:也就是足以支撑个长篇故事或单元性故事的主要架构创意,这样的架构也就是我们所说的故事骨架,而故事骨架的好坏取决于构架型创意是否够力。

关于创意,除了及时捕捉突如其来的灵感之外,平时的积累也是很内重要的,拥有了一定的积累,对日后的创作会非常有帮助。

当以上所提到的创意灵感充分集合之后,才能构思出有趣深动的故事情节。

十二、发想创意的方法

1、市场分析法:观察目前市场上流行的素材,若是现有的素材大多已开发,则可运用两种以上的流行素材结合成为新的创作题材,这类的手法常常出现在偶像剧的创作上。小说也一样,奇幻的故事可以结合武侠,都市的故事可以结合奇幻等等!

首先,我们必须先关注流行的信息,针对你有兴趣的题材,开始收集相关的资料,做基本的功课,最好也能到相关的场所实际体验,并与相关的人物进行访谈,会让创作的内容更贴近现实,当然,若是该题材是你亲身的经历将会更好,因为很多细节的部分描写更为主动。

2、趋势发想法:未来的世界一直是科学家们努力研究的方向,以往这样的想象都仅能从想象力丰富的脑袋中挖掘出来,庆幸的是现在这些对未来的预测我们也能在各类媒体中轻易地得知,而且也极可能的被实现,因此,除了以现在有的环境当作创意发想的方向之外,我们也可以多注意未来的趋势方向,越遥远的未来,想象的空间也就越大。

3、逆向思维法:一般人的思考模式会依寻自我或前人的经验甚至书本上的资料作为依据,而这样的方向也往往让创意受到了局限,尚若问题和答案在同一个圆圈的两个点上,而两个点又极为相近,如果依照经验,必须要绕完一圈才能获得答案,那么反过来走,可能答案就近在眼前了。

另外,与常人的思考逻辑完全相同,也就等同于没有新鲜感,没有刺激性。如果违反常人的思考方式,你可能就会轻易地找到的全新创意。

4、欲望满足法:其实许多创作都在满足人们对现实环境的不满足。人会有很多欲望,但是这些欲望大部分人一生都很难达成,小到希望能知道明天考试的答案,希望哪个同桌讨厌的小胖不要再欺负我:希望有一个超级帅哥或美女当你的异性朋友,等等。

现实生活达不到的事,人们希望能由幻想来满足自己。

十三、最后要注意的

永远觉得不足,在创作中不断地修正。

作为一个创作者,应该有求新求变的精神,因为读者不断地成长,市面上的作品也会不断地推陈出新,如果没有挑战的心态,作品便会变的陈旧,而渐渐脱离市场,你也会慢慢也退居幕后。
