如何营造故事场景高潮
What is a climax of a story (什么是故事高潮 )
More tension=satisfying climax
文学故事中的高潮(climax)----故事的主要场景(key scene)也通常是故事的转折点(turning point),是指故事达到最紧张或扣人心弦的那一部分。高潮有时候是剧情中的 "危机" 点。有时候, 它只是达到关键时刻或者转折点, 发生了一些事情, 或者主角必须做出决定, 从而导致一个结果或其他。我们在分析叙事类故事或者小说故事的时候常常用下面的图表来表示故事情节。
常见故事高潮示例:
1. A little girl has been searching for her lost dog. All of a sudden, she hears a bark coming from around the corner, and she looks around to see . . .
2. Kevin has worked very hard to try out for the soccer team at school. The coach has posted a list of this year's team members on his office door. Kevin walks forward to look at the list . . . .
3. Mary's parents have been discussing whether or not to move to another state. They call Mary and her sister down to talk with them about their decision . . .
4. Lois has performed in the state gymnastics finals. She waits anxiously to hear the names of the winners. The announcer says, "And first place goes to . . ."
文学名著中的一些故事高潮
1. The deaths of Romeo (who kills himself because he thinks Juliet is dead) and Juliet (who kills herself when she awakes and sees Romeo dead). Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare (罗密欧和朱丽叶,莎士比亚)
2. When Gaston and the townspeople come to attack the beast, and Belle admits her love for the beast. Beauty and the Beast, Disney (美女与野兽,迪士尼)
3. In "The Three Little Pigs," suspense builds up until the confrontation between the third pig and the wolf. This confrontation is the climax.(三只小猪)
How to create a climax of a story (如何营造故事的高潮?)
方法1.增加外部冲突
增加外部冲突是一种明显有效的可以达到故事高潮的方式。冲突带来紧迫感, 将故事推向必要的解决或崩溃。
1)角色之间的冲突 (人物观点差异, 竞争需要等)
如:2017年11月浙江英语高考:On the fourth or fifth night, we had trouble finding a hotel with a vacancy. After driving in vain for some time, Mom suddenly got a great idea: Why didn't we find a house with a likely-looking backyard and ask if we could set up tent there David and I became nervous. 开车找旅馆---徒劳无功---母亲建议搭帐篷在他人后院---David和我倍感紧张,心有不悦(母子的观点不一)
2) 角色与环境之间的冲突
如:2017年6月浙江英语高考: Then Mac heard quick and loud breathing behind him. ……he saw instantly that it wasn't a dog at all, but a wolf: quickly catching up with him. Mac's heart jumped. ……, he fired the spray at the wolf. A bright red cloud enveloped the animal, and to Mac's relief, it fell back, shaking its head. But a minute later, ……. Then it ……, tearing open his tent bag. He fired at the wolf a second time, and again, it fell back ……
Mac骑车独自行,路遇饿狼,与之搏斗,险象环生。(人(角色)----狼(环境)大战)
3) 时间依赖的发展 :决策变得紧急
如: 2017年6月浙江英语高考:The car abruptly stopped in front of him. "Get into the car." Paul shouted at Mac. Mac jumped off the bike and slid into the car without delay as the wolf was just two steps away and was about to tear Mac into pieces. What a narrow escape! 骑车突停面前---急喊上车---Max上车避险---饿狼近在咫尺(此情此景,刻不容缓)
4) 增加的障碍:人物角色必须克服 挑战, 以达到他们的目标
例如:2018年6月高考But before we jumped off the horses, we found that we had been off the beaten track and got lost. We had no idea where we were and it got dark. Exhausted and hungry, I wondered if we could find our way back. 小兔突现---马儿受惊---草原迷路(障碍1)----天色渐黑(障碍2)----又累又饿(障碍3)----心理恐慌(障碍4)
方法2. 放大内心冲突
放大内心冲突(你的角色的内心斗争)也有助于建立一个高度紧张和不确定的时刻。
现在我们在来看高考读后续写中的内心冲突是如何体现的:
2016年10月浙江高考: Immediately, an absolute darkness ruled the forest. Jane, exhausted and scared, lay down near a stone, missing her family at a distance. All the fantastic memory crowded in and she couldn't help crying, "Hadn't I quarrelled with Tom, walked away and climbed to the high place, I wouldn't be trapped in this awful place, confronted with the danger of dying.” She regretted with endless anxiety, and then became asleep with shining tears in her eyes.
夫妇争吵---独自行走---荒野走散---夜色渐黑---独处森林---阴森恐怖---后悔莫及(内心冲突的刻画)内心独白(往昔对比+虚拟语气使用+旁边描写是常见技巧之一)
方法3. 使用环境描写增加不确定性
充分利用环境描写可以起到烘托故事高潮的作用,具体方法可以看上期读后续写微技能。当故事角色在碰到困难时候,我们往往要加大笔墨来描写故事环境的黑暗,恐怖和不祥。强化环境描写增强了高潮元素。我们感受到了紧张的倍增。
例1:Immediately, an absolute darkness ruled the forest(黑暗). Even worse, the temperature suddenly dropped dramatically. (寒冷)
例2:It didn’t take long for the forest to be enveloped in darkness(黑暗). Her rasping breath steamed(寒冷) in the moonlight and her throat was parched from thirst.
如何通过场景营造(mood)
Technique 1: Personification (拟人)
Description/purpose:
Gives an object the characteristics of a living thing, bringing it to life
Examples:
The flowers nodded.
Snowflakes danced.
Thunder grumbled.
Fog crept in.
The wind howled.
The haunted house seemed to stare at me, beckoning me towards the door.
Technique 2: simile (明喻)
Description/purpose:
Similes likens something to something else giving a more detailed description
Examples:
The night sky was as dark as the deepest ocean.
The stars sparkled like diamonds.
The snake moved like a ripple on a pond.
Technique 3: metaphor (暗喻)
Description/purpose:
Metaphors say that something is something else, giving the description more power
Examples:
A wave of terror washed over him.
Technique 4:Vivid adjectives (生动的形容词)
Description/purpose:
To make the story more interesting and vivid by using more imaginative descriptions, sometimes in a list
Examples:
Gleaming, glistening, whispery flakes of snow
Technique 5: Negative description (否定描述)
Description/purpose:
To tell the reader what is not there is an effective way of showing how unpleasant, comfortless a place is
Examples:
There was no cushion, no carpet, no warmth, no light and no comfort.
Technique 6: Camera-pan and zoom (摄影-全景+放大)
Description/purpose:
To use the idea of how a film director works, you can give a wider view then focus in on one detail
Examples:
From the withering trees he looked past the littered farmyard, across to the decrepit hovel. Its doors hung sadly awry, the handle broken.
Technique 7: Nouns for details (细节名词)
Description/purpose:
Scenes are filled with things that we see and therefore uses lots of nouns, even lists of nouns to convey what is there.
Examples:
The rooms were crowded with lanterns fastened on oak paneled walls, tables laid with silver candlesticks and goblets.
Technique 8: Senses(感官)
Description/purpose:
All of our senses become aware in a new situation or place. Your reader needs to know how your character are feeling.
Examples:
Wafts of salt-laden air were in her nostrils as the skittery sand on her feet led her to the edge of the waves.
Good setting description for appreciation (佳“景”赏析)
1. The house smelled musty and damp, and a little sweet, as if it were haunted by the ghosts of long-dead cookies.
2. The sun kept dipping down into the ocean and the lights came on at the harbor, casting sudden shadows on the ground, illuminating the faces that were just a second ago silhouettes. The sky was golden and purple, the ocean a darker shade of violet.
3. The sun had set, but a faint pastel haze lingered in the mid-summer sky.
4. They rolled up the path, tree branches raking the windshield like angry wardens.
5. Outside, the air filled with cricket noise, as the sun reddened in its descent.
6. A restaurant overlooking a starlit night sprang to my imagination like something out of an illuminated manuscript from the late Middle Ages.
7. The moon went slowly down in loveliness; she departed into the depth of the horizon, and long veil-like shadows crept up the sky through which the stars appeared.
8. All brightness was gone, leaving nothing. We stepped out of the tent onto nothing. Sledge and tent were there, Estraven stood beside me, but neither he nor I cast any shadow. There was dull light all around, everywhere. When we walked on the crisp snow no shadow showed the footprint. We left no track. Sledge, tent, himself, myself: nothing else at all. No sun, no sky, no horizon, no world.
9. Night had fallen fast upon the land. No more than an hour ago the sky was painted with hues of red, orange and pink, but all colour had faded leaving only a matt black canvas with no stars to be looked upon.
10.It would be a cold moonless night. The sky was dark and low, the air so chilled it hurt to breathe. Already the ground was laid white with frost and any water that had been liquid under the winter sun had become ice.

1)积累相关的 show 的词汇来避免过度使用副词
2)穿插动作描写辅助对话,刻画人物心情
试比较以下两句:
“That’s not what you said yesterday,” she said, her voice implying she was withdrawing.
“That’s not what you said yesterday.” She hesitated, turned and walked to the window.
评析:两句话粗看都是相当不错。无论从词汇和语法结构的使用似乎都属于上乘之作。但细细琢磨下面这句反而更高一筹。原因是,第一句用了imply 和withdraw 两词来tell说话者she的心情,而第二句hesitate 和后面的动作描写让她的犹豫心情跃然纸上。小说故事要的就是这种show的方式。
分析对话实例,揭示对话秘诀
Example 1
原文内容:作者爸爸在阳台种植康乃馨,悉心呵护,作者一家都非常喜欢这些花。爸妈再三强调不允许作者和他姐姐不能触碰这些花。
To our surprise, Dad was mad about it, yelling at us, “ Don’t you know touching is not allowed What on earth have you done ”
赏析:反义疑问句和on earth 的使用加强了语气,凸显了父亲的生气。
Example 2
原文内容:母亲去世,哥哥外出。父女相约吃饭, 引发了女儿对母亲和哥哥的思念,父亲读懂了女儿内心的想法,安慰女儿。母亲在天堂一定希望他们过得快乐,现在他们需要做的就是珍惜身边的人。
Seeing this, my father lovingly held my hands and said to me, “Sweetheart, I believe your mother must want you to live happily, so say goodbye to the past and embrace the present. Your brother and I will always be with you.”
赏析:情感类的对话要求感人,触及内心,这点此对话做的不错。但是小编也要对此对话提出点意见1)文中的and said to me 完全没有必要,因为对话对象非常清楚,肯定和我说。2)your mother 显得太疏远,亲人间相互称呼用Mom 即可,更显真实,贴近生活。
Example 3
原文内容:作者家突然停电,虽然弟弟觉得停电时间非常无聊,但是作者却非常享受停电时间,享受“没有现代电子科技带来的干扰”的宁静片刻。
Bzzz! The lights return. “ Yeah, no more candles!” My mother yells, pulling me away from my fantasy.
赏析:对话简洁自然,表达了说话者恢复用电时候的兴奋,对话外面的dialogue tag也很出色,分词的使用既丰富了语言也推动了情节的进一步发展。
Example 4
原文内容:主人公Jenny 通过自身的劳动获得了心爱的项链,形影不离。父亲每日给她讲睡前故事。父亲故意试探女儿,问是否可以把项链给他。Jenny深爱爸爸但不舍自己努力得来的项链。
A week later, her father once again asked Jenny after her story. “ Jenny, you love me, don’t you Give me your pearls, okay “ Daddy, why must you ask for the pearls ” Jenny refused again. “ Not only did I finish all those chores, but also I spent the dollar bill given for my birthday just to pay for it.”They both fell into silence. Then her father smiled,comforting her with a warm hug. “ That’s okey, darling. Good night.”
Several days later, when Jenny’s father came in to read her a story as usual, he was surprised to find something under the story book, which turned out to be the necklace. “ Daddy, now you can have it.” Jenny raised her head, “ You know, I love you.” Her father was moved beyond words. Slowly, he pulled something out of his pocket. It was a pretty necklace with real pearls shining. “The more you are willing to give, the more you are likely to receive. That’s the real meaning of sharing and giving.” Her father helped Jenny put on the necklace . “ You know, I love you, little one.”
赏析:此文运用了大量的对话,主要是考虑到与前文的协同。大量的父女间的对话穿插一些旁白或动作描写很好地刻画了人物之间的冲突,细腻生动地刻画了人物心情。一般的读后续写不建议用太多的对话。适当的对话可以打破单调,推动情节,刻画人物性格。对于此文中的对话,小编也想提出点个人的意见:1)“ Not only did I finish all those chores, but also I spent the dollar bill given for my birthday just to pay for it.” 此句似乎为了使用not only…, but also 的倒装句型而写对话,显得很不自然。语句太长反而不能表达小女孩当时的生气。建议改为: “ It’s mine! My efforts!” 反而显得简洁自然,同样达到了效果,符合人在生气时候的说话方式:短句!不完整句!2) 还有一处标点的使用也有误。请看:Jenny raised her head, 此处的逗号要改为句号。只能作为动作描写,而不是question tag。
Example 5
原文内容: 这是一个哲理故事,讲述一位商人儿子去向智者寻找快乐秘诀。智者让年轻人带着两汤勺油绕城一周不能将油洒落。智者待年轻人回来后问他是否欣赏到城堡的美景,年轻人哑口无言。然后智者重新让这年轻人带着两勺油绕城一周,结果……
“ But where are the two drops of oil I gave you ” asked the wise man. Embarrassed again, the young man apologized, “ I had forgotten the sp totally. My only concern was the attractive sights.” “ But you have got the happiness.” Smiled the wise man…
“ But where are the two drops of oil I gave you ” asked the wise man. He lowered his head and found that there was nothing left in his spoon, astonished and embarrassed. Then the wise man smiled generously, “I don’t blame you. I just want you to realize the secret of happiness yourself. Now, could you tell me about your thoughts ” The young man thought for a while and slowly replied, “ the truth of happiness is holding our dreams tightly but never failing to watch the beautiful scenery around us.”
赏析:此文的对话主要是用来揭示故事的寓意,通常出现在故事的末尾。这样的对话一定要写出深度厚度,才能博得老师的高分。建议可以使用强调句。此文中也有一个标点瑕疵。请看:Then the wise man smiled generously, 此句的逗号也要改为句号,作为动作描写穿插其中,而不是question tag 。

一篇出自美国初中生的看图说话
与2018年6月浙江英语高考“读后续写”酷似!
Write a short story based on the pictures below in not less than 100 words.
One weekend, my parents decided to bring my brother and I to the recreational jungle. We were very excited as we had not been there before. My brother and I talked about all the bears, tigers and reindeer we were going to see. We really thought that a recreational jungle was like any other jungle.
When we arrived, we dashed into the jungle, wanting to explore its length and breadth. We obediently followed our parents at first but found it boring. Just then, a rabbit rushed out. I screamed in delight and ran after it. My brotherfollowed quickly behind. We kept running, always keeping our eyes on the rabbit. The rabbit got tired of running and decided to hide in its burrow.
It was only then that we realized that we did not know where we were. The trees looked unfamiliar and there were no more jungle paths for us to follow. We werescared as we realized that we were lost. Night was approaching and the hooting of the owl sent shivers down our spines. I began to cry as I was feeling tired, hungry and sleepy. My brother comforted me by letting me sleep on his lap. I soon fell asleep dreaming of bears waiting to eat me up.
Suddenly, I woke up. My brother was shaking me and telling them to get up. We could hear voices coming our way! We shouted with all our might that we were lost. We soon saw beams of light from countless torches. Then we heard our parents' voices. We were safe! My brother and I ran to our parents and embraced them emotionally. We were so happy to see them again that we vowed we never wanted to be separated from them ever again.

My fingers are curled into a fist, nails digging into my palm. I can't hear my rapid breathing, but I can feel the oxygen flooding in and out of my lungs. Hesitantly, my eyes look at the dead corpse before me, the person I killed. Fear tortures my guts, churning my stomach in tense cramps. Fear engulfs my conscience, knocking all other thoughts aside. Fear overwhelms my body, making it drastically exhausted. However, most of all, the fear is making me calm and that is what scares me the most.

Example 3 - Fear
Time passed slowly. Cathy stayed hidden within the darkness, feeling every beat of her heart pounding on the cold stone she lay upon. The wine and ale cellar was as quiet as it was dark, with only one sound to be heard; the sound of her own pulse throbbing in her ears. Suddenly, the serenity of silence surrendered to the deathly scream of hinges, as the door opposite her was slowly pried open. A narrow stream of light gracefully meandered through the room, and a shadow quickly followed.
She was scared.
Cathy held her breathe, daring not to make a sound. Each second seemed to last an eternity as she lay perfectly still listening to the footsteps of the intruder, which had muted the pounding of her pulse.
Key words:______________________
Your treasure:_____________________
恐惧来自自身,最大的恐惧其实就是恐惧本身!
读后续写微技能|如何让你笔下的对话更加准确传神
对话(dialogue)是故事角色在整个故事中对彼此或对自己说的话。它可以用来揭示人物的性格和个性,它也可以用来推动情节向前发展,并展示情节发展的过程。
对话是故事中最重要的元素之一。对话的语言要避免冗长的叙述,要避免直接告诉读者而要通过其他手段来展示它们。优秀的对话会让你故事中的人物生动立体,栩栩如生,将推动你的故事进展,使其更有乐趣,而拙劣的对话将破坏一个好的故事。
11. 如何准确使用对话中的标点
请观察下面的句子。
Jack asked, “Do you think it will rain today ”
“I have a new umbrella,” explained Emily, “and I am excited to try it out.”
“Why don't you check the weather forecast on your phone ” suggested Carly.
“It is as simple as the smile on your face,” he said.
英语对话标点使用规则:
第一、 对话提示词(Dialogue tags)“Jack asked,”/ “explained Emily,”/ “suggested Carly,” 的位置可以放在引用的对话前、中、后三个位置。
第二、 对话中的逗号,永远在引号里面。对话提示词“某某人说”构成了整个句子的框架,它和它引用的部分是一个整体,是完整的一个句子。这就解释了很多老师的疑惑,为啥对话有时候引用的对话说完了,但是后面却用逗号。
如:“It was as hard as a rock,” he said. 但是: He said,“It was as hard as a rock.”
第三、 整个对话(引用部分+对话提示词)完整的时候,才能使用句号。对话开始首字母大写。如果对话提示词是插在一个完整对话中间的, 后面需要用逗号。且后半句话开头首字母要小写。
如:“I have a new umbrella,” explained Emily, “and I am excited to try it out.”
Exercise 1:给下面的句子加标点
1. There's a fifty percent chance of rain this afternoon, reported Emily.
2. Emily asked, Do you think I should take my new umbrella to school
3. Of course you should take it to school, answered Jack.
4. If it starts raining, Carly added, you will be nice and dry.
5. Emily squealed(尖叫), I see dark gray storm clouds rolling in.
6. Oh no! exclaimed (惊叫)Jack. Carly and I don't have umbrellas.
7. Hooray! yelled(喊叫) Emily. It's finally raining.
8. Carly mumbled(咕哝地说), My hair is getting soaked.
9. Would you and Jack like to share my umbrella with me asked Emily.
10. Thank you Emily, said Carly. You're more than just a fair weather friend.
2 如何让你的对话不平庸
对话的关注点就是故事中的角色
1)对谁说了什么话
2)说话的同时在做什么
3)如何说的
例1
A: "Give me the money," Katherine said.
B: "Give me the money," Katherine said, eyes staring at the money on the table。
在高考读后续写的实际操作中,我们更加钟爱B 这种句式,既表明了说话对象,又描述了说话的方式,让读者更有画面感。
例2
"Give me that toy gun ," Tom said angrily.Lucy grinned, hiding it behind her back.
这组对话中的said angrily 的使用让整个对话表现平庸。改变这种现状的办法有两种
I. 换直接告诉的词(said angrily)为展示型词汇 (如:shouted/ screamed/ barked)
II.在上下文语境明确的情况下,通过动作和神态描写来代替枯燥乏味的sb. said …(对话提示语)。 这样处理的好处是:1)增加表现力生动性 2)避免打断对话的语流。
如:
Tom slammed the doll on the ground and glared at Lucy,"Give me the toy."Lucy grinned,hiding it behind her back..
提示:在读后续写的创作中,尽量少用副词来表述说话人讲话方式(因为你用了副词那就是tell而不是show),特别是你要主要渲染的场景.让你的对话有趣逼真有画面立体感的是你如何使用show的技能,那就一定要使用一些描绘性的动词。(他们说了什么话,说话时同时在做什么,以及是如何说的)
拙劣表达: "I'm going to the store," Sydney announced happily. "Wanna go with me "
上面这个例子中Sydney的感情是直接告知的,干巴巴的,了无生趣。
优秀表达: Sydney pulled his shiny, new driver's license out of his pocket. The car keys were already in his hand as he flashed them at his little sister and grinned. "I'm going to the store," he announced. "Wanna go with me "
第二个例子中,虽然没有用happily一词,但是Sydney的高兴的表情是通过动作描写溢于纸面。这样的表达就能博得高考阅卷老师的眼球,从而获得高分。
下面的两个例子都是我们需要追求的:
“I just don’t know anymore,” Mary folded her arms. “I think I’m afraid of you.”
Harry sighed. “I’m sorry,” He shook his head. “I’m not very good at this.”
练习2:试比较体会下面三句话的优劣
1. But I don't want to go to sleep yet," hesaid unhappily.
2. But I don't want to go to sleep yet," hewhined.
3. He stood in the doorway with his hands balled into little fists at his sides. His red, tear-rimmed eyes glared up at his mother. "But I don't want to go to sleep yet."
Exercise 3:(请改写下面的句子使它表达更生动传神)
“I don’t want to see you again,” Lily said tonelessly.
“You don’t mean that,” Jack said desperately.
“You’re an idiot,” Lily said angrily.
对话并不难写。只要记住在任何时候都要生动逼真。在准确的对话格式的前提下,确保你写的所有内容都是展示出来的,不是简单直接地告诉读者在那个场景中发生了什么或者说了什么。省略副词或者不要过度使用副词。这些简单的规则可以帮助你写出出色的对话。
Possible answers for Exercise 3
Lily turned away and crossed her arms. “I don’t want to see you again.”
“You don’t mean that.” Jack pushed to his feet in a rush.
She glared at him. “You’re an idiot.”
读后续写微技能|氛围营造法之一: 8大场景描写技能

Good setting description for appreciation (佳“景”赏析)
1. The house smelled musty and damp, and a little sweet, as if it were haunted by the ghosts of long-dead cookies.
2. The sun kept dipping down into the ocean and the lights came on at the harbor, casting sudden shadows on the ground, illuminating the faces that were just a second ago silhouettes. The sky was golden and purple, the ocean a darker shade of violet.
3. The sun had set, but a faint pastel haze lingered in the mid-summer sky.
4. They rolled up the path, tree branches raking the windshield like angry wardens.
5. Outside, the air filled with cricket noise, as the sun reddened in its descent.
6. A restaurant overlooking a starlit night sprang to my imagination like something out of an illuminated manuscript from the late Middle Ages.
7. The moon went slowly down in loveliness; she departed into the depth of the horizon, and long veil-like shadows crept up the sky through which the stars appeared.
8. All brightness was gone, leaving nothing. We stepped out of the tent onto nothing. Sledge and tent were there, Estraven stood beside me, but neither he nor I cast any shadow. There was dull light all around, everywhere. When we walked on the crisp snow no shadow showed the footprint. We left no track. Sledge, tent, himself, myself: nothing else at all. No sun, no sky, no horizon, no world.
9. Night had fallen fast upon the land. No more than an hour ago the sky was painted with hues of red, orange and pink, but all colour had faded leaving only a matt black canvas with no stars to be looked upon.
10.It would be a cold moonless night. The sky was dark and low, the air so chilled it hurt to breathe. Already the ground was laid white with frost and any water that had been liquid under the winter sun had become ice.
后续写微技能|氛围营造法之二|3大高潮营造法
1What is a climax of a story (什么是故事高潮 )
文学故事中的高潮(climax)----故事的主要场景(key scene)也通常是故事的转折点(turning point),是指故事达到最紧张或扣人心弦的那一部分。高潮有时候是剧情中的 "危机" 点。有时候, 它只是达到关键时刻或者转折点, 发生了一些事情, 或者主角必须做出决定, 从而导致一个结果或其他。我们在分析叙事类故事或者小说故事的时候常常用下面的图表来表示故事情节。
常见故事高潮示例:
1. A little girl has been searching for her lost dog. All of a sudden, she hears a bark coming from around the corner, and she looks around to see . . .
2. Kevin has worked very hard to try out for the soccer team at school. The coach has posted a list of this year's team members on his office door. Kevin walks forward to look at the list . . . .
3. Mary's parents have been discussing whether or not to move to another state. They call Mary and her sister down to talk with them about their decision . . .
4. Lois has performed in the state gymnastics finals. She waits anxiously to hear the names of the winners. The announcer says, "And first place goes to . . ."
文学名著中的一些故事高潮
1. The deaths of Romeo (who kills himself because he thinks Juliet is dead) and Juliet (who kills herself when she awakes and sees Romeo dead). Romeo and Juliet, Shakespeare (罗密欧和朱丽叶,莎士比亚)
2. When Gaston and the townspeople come to attack the beast, and Belle admits her love for the beast. Beauty and the Beast, Disney (美女与野兽,迪士尼)
3. In "The Three Little Pigs," suspense builds up until the confrontation between the third pig and the wolf. This confrontation is the climax.(三只小猪)
2How to create a climax of a story (如何营造故事的高潮?)
方法1.增加外部冲突
增加外部冲突是一种明显有效的可以达到故事高潮的方式。冲突带来紧迫感, 将故事推向必要的解决或崩溃。
1)角色之间的冲突 (人物观点差异, 竞争需要等)
如:2017年11月浙江英语高考:On the fourth or fifth night, we had trouble finding a hotel with a vacancy. After driving in vain for some time, Mom suddenly got a great idea: Why didn't we find a house with a likely-looking backyard and ask if we could set up tent there David and I became nervous. 开车找旅馆---徒劳无功---母亲建议搭帐篷在他人后院---David和我倍感紧张,心有不悦(母子的观点不一)
2) 角色与环境之间的冲突
如:2017年6月浙江英语高考: Then Mac heard quick and loud breathing behind him. ……he saw instantly that it wasn't a dog at all, but a wolf: quickly catching up with him. Mac's heart jumped. ……, he fired the spray at the wolf. A bright red cloud enveloped the animal, and to Mac's relief, it fell back, shaking its head. But a minute later, ……. Then it ……, tearing open his tent bag. He fired at the wolf a second time, and again, it fell back ……
Mac骑车独自行,路遇饿狼,与之搏斗,险象环生。(人(角色)----狼(环境)大战)
3) 时间依赖的发展 :决策变得紧急
如: 2017年6月浙江英语高考:The car abruptly stopped in front of him. "Get into the car." Paul shouted at Mac. Mac jumped off the bike and slid into the car without delay as the wolf was just two steps away and was about to tear Mac into pieces. What a narrow escape! 骑车突停面前---急喊上车---Max上车避险---饿狼近在咫尺(此情此景,刻不容缓)
4) 增加的障碍:人物角色必须克服 挑战, 以达到他们的目标
例如:2018年6月高考But before we jumped off the horses, we found that we had been off the beaten track and got lost. We had no idea where we were and it got dark. Exhausted and hungry, I wondered if we could find our way back. 小兔突现---马儿受惊---草原迷路(障碍1)----天色渐黑(障碍2)----又累又饿(障碍3)----心理恐慌(障碍4)
方法2. 放大内心冲突
放大内心冲突(你的角色的内心斗争)也有助于建立一个高度紧张和不确定的时刻。
现在我们在来看高考读后续写中的内心冲突是如何体现的:
2016年10月浙江高考: Immediately, an absolute darkness ruled the forest. Jane, exhausted and scared, lay down near a stone, missing her family at a distance. All the fantastic memory crowded in and she couldn't help crying, "Hadn't I quarrelled with Tom, walked away and climbed to the high place, I wouldn't be trapped in this awful place, confronted with the danger of dying.” She regretted with endless anxiety, and then became asleep with shining tears in her eyes.
夫妇争吵---独自行走---荒野走散---夜色渐黑---独处森林---阴森恐怖---后悔莫及(内心冲突的刻画)内心独白(往昔对比+虚拟语气使用+旁边描写是常见技巧之一)
方法3. 使用环境描写增加不确定性
充分利用环境描写可以起到烘托故事高潮的作用,具体方法可以看上期读后续写微技能。当故事角色在碰到困难时候,我们往往要加大笔墨来描写故事环境的黑暗,恐怖和不祥。强化环境描写增强了高潮元素。我们感受到了紧张的倍增。
例1:Immediately, an absolute darkness ruled the forest(黑暗). Even worse, the temperature suddenly dropped dramatically. (寒冷)
例2:It didn’t take long for the forest to be enveloped in darkness(黑暗). Her rasping breath steamed(寒冷) in the moonlight and her throat was parched from thirst.
