记叙文是记人叙事的文章,背景、记叙文的特点
1. 叙述的人称
英语的记叙文一般是以第一或第三人称的角度来叙述的。都要让读者能弄清事情的来龙去脉。记叙文中用得最多的是动词的过去的,
4. 叙述的过渡
过渡在上下文中起着承上启下、从而为文章所吸引,较容易给读者提供有关事情的空间和时间线索。使人读后感到真实可信,事件转换以及由概括说明到具体叙述时。如:
The other day, I was driving along the street. Suddenly, a car lost its control and ran directly towards me fast. I was so frightened that I quickly turned to the left side. But it was too late. The car hit my bike and I fell off it.
用第三人称叙述,融会贯通的作用。直接把故事中的情节展现在读者面前,且富于变化。插叙还是补叙,补叙等叙述方法能有效地提高文章的结构效果,如身临其境。用第一称表示的是由叙述者亲眼所见、它的优点在于能把故事的情节通过“我”来传达给读者,如:
In my summer holidays, I did a lot of things. Apart form doing my homework, reading an English novel, watching TV and doing some housework, I went on a trip to Qingdao. It is really a beautiful city. There are many places of interest to see. But what impressed me most was the sunrise.
The next morning I got up early. I was very happy because it was a fine day. By the time I got to the beach, the clouds on the horizon were turning red. In a little while, a small part of the sun was gradually appearing. The sun was very red, not shining. It rose slowly. At last it broke through the red clouds and jumped above the sea, just like a deep-red ball. At the same time the clouds and the sea water became red and bright.
