1. Understanding of words
Words are the components of articles. If you want to write a good article, you must first have an appropriate understanding of words. Regarding the appropriateness of the words, a joke is mentioned in the book:
There is a poor man who went to attend a happy event of a rich relative, but because his family is poor, other clothes are relatively worn, and the only clothes that can be worn to see people are the only black single robe I made when I went to see someone in the funeral a few years ago.
There was no way, so he had to wear this outfit to eat someone’s wedding banquet. When I got there, I saw that the relatives who came to congratulate me were all wearing robes with appropriate tailoring and bright colors and materials, and were very happy. And he himself, in this late autumn weather, only had a single robe, and the color was dark, which was extremely incompatible with the festive atmosphere.
The author finally concluded that has poor words, and is not suitable for using inappropriate words, which is equivalent to using a single robe and single cotton that is not suitable for the body. It is very ugly.
The word category is used to convey our own meaning and private messages. If it is not suitable for use, it will be misunderstood and our own original intention will be lost. The improper use of
can be improved from two aspects: one is to look up the dictionary more and make sure to make the meaning of the word accurate; the other is to associate words with similar semantics to it when using a word, and carefully understand the subtle differences of each word.
For example, when you see the word "learning", you can think of words such as "practice", "research", "discussion", "examination", "study hard", etc. When you see the word "anger", you will think of words such as "anger", "hate", "angry", "fire", "unhappy", "unhappy", and "unhappy". If you carefully think about these words in your mind, which of these words of the same type is the widest range? Which range is the narrowest? Which one has the strongest tone? Which tone is the weakest? One by one, we need to figure it out. In this way, when you use it, you will know which word should be chosen the most suitable one.
2. Write down specific details instead of just abstractly narrating
. Some people write articles and do not know how to describe specific images. They are always "beautiful", "interesting", "hateful", and "hateful". It is also irrelevant to write these words a hundred times, because they are all empty new people and have no infectious power to others.
You must describe how beautiful, how sad, how interesting, and how hateful it is with real impressions, so that people will feel beautiful, sad, what is interesting and hateful. When writing articles, try to use these empty words as little as possible, pay attention to observation anytime and anywhere, obtain real impressions, and use them as material for descriptions. Only in this way can the written article be fulfilling and moving.
3. The quality of an article depends mainly on three aspects:
The quality of an article can be observed from three aspects: one is whether there are any problems in the grammar, the second is whether the words are appropriate, and the third is the freshness of the thought, correct and rich.
ideological content is based on reading more experience. Ordinary people only have the thoughts of ordinary people and cannot seek quick results, so they have to cultivate for life. The common problems that ordinary people make are incorrect grammar and inappropriate vocabulary.
Regarding the inappropriate use of words, the book gives an example:
says that there is a surname He who is well-written. But the writing is not very smooth and the knowledge is limited. One day, he gave someone a scroll of sacrifices, with four big words "Yaochi Return to the Race".
Someone else saw the four words he wrote and said to him that he had written them wrongly, and he said that he was not wrong, and it was often used on the sacrificial curtains. Others told him that Yao Chi was the palace where the Queen Mother of the West lived. After she died, she returned to Yao Chi, which specifically refers to women. But now the man died was a man, didn’t he write it wrong?
He just understood, so he had to blush and tear the four words "Yaochi Return to Drive".
If you don’t know, you have to ask and search. This becomes a habit. Only by reading and writing articles can you avoid being ambiguous and misunderstood; you will not speak and write essays without expressing your meaning, "pointing to a deer as a horse."
4, trigger kung fu
Reading is important for new achievements, and writing is important for new flavor. The most important thing is the skill of triggering.
The so-called trigger is to perceive other things from one thing. When reading, I feel that a sentence in the book is related to a certain place in the book I have read in my daily life, which is trigger; I feel that I have a relationship with my life and that it is a trigger; I feel that it can be used as an example of a certain theoretical explanation in the future, which is trigger. This is for studying.
The meaning of discovery in life I have experienced is also a trigger. This trigger is a good material for composition.
For example, there is a couplet, the second couplet is "Bamboo solves humility and is my teacher". The author is touched by the hollowness of bamboo, which is similar to human humility, so it creates such a new sentence.
triggers it to be fresh.
For example, the fullness of the moon is used to describe the rise and fall of human affairs, and the passing of water is used to describe the difficulty of the years. Such words are a good trigger for the first time, and they are very new to say. If we use them, it is equivalent to saying what others have said, and the boyfriend’s new ideas in the article will be difficult to arouse others’ interest.
5. The difference between novels and narratives
Novels do not have to be based on practical things, nor do they just narrate practical things like narratives . They also have to contain other things in it. Then other things are the essence of novels.
That is what the author sees from those facts that have a significant relationship with general life.
The essence of a narrative text is a matter, and narrative is its purpose; the essence of a novel is the meaning that the author sees from life, and contains this meaning in the story he is narrated.
This is like a bowl of salt soup. You can’t see a piece of salt. Take a sip and try it, but it’s salty. So we said that salt is contained in this bowl of soup. The story of the novel contains the meaning the author wants to express is like soup with salt. If we explain the meaning outside the story, it is not "inclusion", but an argumentative essay.
Novels are the most real story in the world, but they are not the record of a certain thing. When writing a novel, the author throws away the narrative text and just copys the facts. Based on his experience, he chooses characters, arranges materials, and creates a story.
If you say that he made up his own fiction out of thin air, it is wrong. His materials are all the reality of society and the experience of life; if you ask him, "Is this a thing?" he will smile and refuse to answer, because your question is too naive.
Narrative article is like taking a photo. Just shine the scenery on it and it’s all done; however, novels are dominated by the painter’s consciousness and emotions. Those who only know how to write novels based on facts do not understand this, so they try their best to take a picture of the facts at most.
6, exercises, application works and creations
(I) Three types of articles
We can write articles into three types: exercises, application works and creations.
When writing letters is an application, composition class is an exercise. If you choose the topic in the future, you can write literary works freely and unrestrainedly. This is creation.
Exercises are just exercises of rules and skills; application works are just things that deal with others and affairs, and creation is the real achievement of utilizing one's own talent.
Creation is a kind of creation, and its life cares about freshness. Whether it is an article or a painting, anything that is imitated cannot be called creation.
(II) How to discover the subject matter?
The first step in creating is to discover the subject matter. The subject matter must be fresh and worth choosing and identifying. Things in the world are ready-made, ordinary, old, and the so-called freshness. The author needs to discover them himself. Being able to see new meanings in ordinary things is the first condition for becoming a creator. The discovery of the
theme is not necessarily a difficult task. Can be paid attention to and can be found anytime and anywhere. When we walk on the street every day, we will encounter various tasks and events. When we read or sit alone, we will have various thoughts and emotions. At this time, the fresh things are often like lightning, and it is the subject matter.
(III) The fermentation of the theme
After the theme is selected, the second step is to ferment and mature. Whether you are reading, reading newspapers, listening to other people's conversations, or walking alone, you must pay attention to it. When encountering any matters related to this theme, you must collect them one by one to enrich the content and combine them together. This situation is just like a mother who uses her own blood nutrients to cultivate the fetus. Only when the theme of
is mature can you write it out.
(IV) Basic skills of composition
It is useless to have the subject matter alone. To write a work, you must have skilled skills. If a person who draws a painting has a good subject and does not have enough wrists, his face does not look like a face, and his hands do not look like a hand, he will not be able to become a painting at all. The same is true for the creation of
articles. Although the subject matter is well prepared, it is very good. If his basic skills are not solid, his sentences are not smooth, and his words are used incorrectly, then even if he writes it out, it will be bad.
Discovering subject matter is not difficult. As long as you can pay attention, you can discover it anytime and anywhere, but ordinary people cannot write decent works like writers and painters. This is why ordinary people have not prepared the skills they need in creation. Although they will have valuable subjects, they are unfortunately unable to write them out and let them finish the matter.
