When writing a composition, there will be such a question: What is "literary talent"? How to achieve "literary talent" in composition?

First, turn abstraction into image.

Please compare the following two sentences:

1。 After the busy work, the girl began to miss home.

2。 After busy work, girls like to climb to the top floor alone, facing home, reading the strict array and sunset. (Yan Wenjing, "Looking for You")

Although both sentences express "the girl is homesick", the former sentence is only a general explanation, and "homesickness" is abstract and vague. The latter sentence is full of loneliness and desolation, with the image of a girl "climbing to the top floor alone and reading the strict array and sunset facing home", which is easy to remind people of "can I finally send my emissary?" The poem "It takes only a few dusk to ruin his life" by Dayan, who returned to Luoyang, is particularly impressive.

For another example, when a classmate was writing about the artistic effect of violin playing, he said that "the sound of the piano attracted many passers-by to stop and listen." This sentence did not write the content of violin performance and the beauty of melody, nor did it write the intoxicated state of the audience. It does not reflect the artistic effect of violin playing, and it is boring and lacks the artistic beauty it deserves. It might as well be rewritten as: "The beautiful violin concerto" butterfly lovers "floated out of the window of the small building, through the drizzle and scattered on the path in the forest. Many pedestrians can't help but slow down and listen. "

Second, change static to dynamic.

Lessing said in laocoon that dynamic beauty is fleeting but never tired of seeing it, and it can produce stronger effects than ordinary beauty. Because of this, for those static things, we should be good at "turning static into dynamic" to make them full of vitality and vigor. For example, Kong Fu's "The Scenery Before the Buddha in Longquan Cave, Qianfo Mountain" describes the Buddha statue and moss:

He smiled and watched the moss climb up his toes. He smiled and listened to the moss jumping on his knees. He smiled and let the moss invade the Buddha's head ...

The Buddha is still, even the growing moss is still at the moment we see it, but the author uses verbs such as "laugh, see and listen" and "climb, jump and invade" to make the Buddha and moss move as if they were alive. Most of the scenic spots in mountains and rivers are still life, and quietness means no potential, and no potential means no movement. So we should be good at making still life move and inanimate things come alive.

Third, vivid and vivid

The so-called "vivid" is to describe the sound of nature, the shape and color of objects in detail, so that people have an immersive feeling. Dostoevsky gave an example. He said, "a small silver ring fell to the ground." This sentence is not good enough. It should be written as "A small silver circle rolled down from the table and danced on the ground" (quoted from Qin Mu's Yu Lin Cai Ying). In this way, it will be colorful.

Fourth, humor, playfulness and liveliness

Too serious expression will inevitably give people a sense of heaviness and depression. A little humor and one-liners can make an article lively. Please look at the last part of the composition "keep pace with the times":

We don't have to follow the trend, we can be ourselves; You can do more "advanced" things without blindly learning from others.

Change yourself and make yourself noble, not just "busy".

Change yourself and make yourself patriotic, not "love rice".

Change yourself and let yourself have excellent cultivation, instead of just watching jokes and romances.

Change yourself and stand out from the crowd. Personality is also a trend now, and this feature is undoubtedly the most "in".

Everything around us is affecting our growth, and they are often negative or even decadent. This is really "no technical content at all", but as long as we change ourselves, we can also have extraordinary temperament. Otherwise, "the consequences are very serious."

The author skillfully uses the writing style of essays to write in a harmonious and relaxed way, which makes the article have a special artistic conception and makes people laugh.

Fifth, make good use of rhetorical devices.

According to the needs of expression, proper use of rhetorical methods such as metaphor, personification, metonymy, exaggeration, duality, parallelism, rhetorical questions and rhetorical questions can effectively enhance the expression effect of the article. Please look at a few examples:

1。 Spiders also cherish the return of spring and hold on to the residual red to prevent it from flying.

Use "residual red" instead of falling flowers, vivid and vivid; Use anthropomorphic techniques to vividly express the feelings of cherishing spring.

2。 Clear water fish read the moon; Quiet birds talk about the sky.

With duality, there is the beauty of music; The application of personification not only shows a beautiful and quiet environment, but also renders a fresh and rich bookish atmosphere.

3。 Those eyes, such as autumn water, such as cold stars, such as orbs, such as white mercury, have two black mercury in them ... (Liu E's Travels of Lao Can)

Use metaphors to describe the eyes of white cattle: "autumn water" is clear and pure, "cold star" is crystal clear and bright, "ball" is round and shiny, and "mercury" is black and white and vivid. These eyes are really expressive and beautiful.

4。 Listen to birds in spring, cicadas in summer, insects in autumn and snow in winter; Listen to the sound of chess during the day, the sound of flutes under the moon, the sound of pines in the mountains and the sound of water, and you will be worthy of your ears. (Juck Zhang's nightmare shadow)

Using parallelism, a series of pleasant sounds are listed, which makes people think deeply and shock their hearts.

5。 Teenagers reading, such as peep at the moon; Reading in middle age, such as looking at the moon in court, reading in old age, such as playing the moon on stage. They are all shallow in experience and deep in income. (same as above)

Appreciating the moon is a metaphor for reading, which expresses the truth related to the experience gained from reading and explains it in simple terms.

6。 There are so few flowers in this place that all the colors are taken up by women; There are too few stones, and the strength is taken up by people; The land is barren, and all the contents are occupied by jujube trees; The tree is so thin that the fullness is taken up by mutton. (Jia Pingwa's "Yanchuan City")

By contrast, it highlights the Yanchuan characteristics of fewer flowers and fewer stones, barren land and thin trees, beautiful women, strong men and fat sheep. The writing is novel and unforgettable.

7。 Graphite black is not slippery, common and low in price; Diamonds are brilliant, hard and priceless. Compared with the two, they are like fish loach dragons, like caterpillars and butterflies, like sparrows and phoenixes, like toads on the ground and white swans in the blue sky ... [(Accept pressure)]

The sharp contrast and vivid metaphor not only highlight the world difference between graphite and diamond, but also give people aesthetic enjoyment.

8。 Whispering, soft cotton candy, trembling slightly in the wind, like a white cloud flying away from my hand, I quickly put them into my arms and gathered together. As soon as I ran away, the cotton candy seemed to fly away again. I quickly gathered them together and squeezed them ... (Kelly's memory of My Sweetie)

The metaphor of "white clouds" is vivid and appropriate, which is really fascinating.

Sixth, pay attention to the changes in sentences.

If whole sentences and scattered sentences, long sentences and short sentences are flexibly matched and used alternately, the language will change and produce special aesthetic feeling. For example, in 2006, Zhejiang wrote a passage in the essay "Go with Interest":

Some people have conquered the peak and looked up at the steeper cliff; I found my soul treasure and jumped into another strange adventure; Riding through Meiyuan, I was bent on going straight to the border to protect my family and kill the enemy.

Such people are not stubborn, but persistent. They rush to the limit of life, experience the happiness of life in conquest, and realize their ultimate meaning in "no peace" ... The greatest soldiers are eager to die in the battlefield, and in the face of eternal rest brought by death, they die with a smile.

Some people, driving a boat, are at a loss about everything, but they don't want to reach any other shore, just enjoying themselves and listening to the wind. They walk by candlelight at night and visit immortals to explore ghosts, but they just feel that time flies and the scenery is infinite, so they can't enjoy themselves. Such people are not indulgent and decadent, but natural and unrestrained. They enjoy the details of life in roaming, commemorate the lost time in stopping and overlooking, and eulogize the beauty of nature in sincere poems ... Taoist priests who have ascended to heaven and become immortals, regardless of the mortal world, only get the perfection of their personality and the rest of their lives in meditation.

These paragraphs are elegant and rich in words, and many idioms and allusions are used. Judging from the sentence pattern, the whole sentence is the main part, and the style of prose is also used, paying attention to integrity, symmetry and echo, forming a kind of beauty of integration and dispersion.

Seven, quote famous sentences

Students with wide reading, wide knowledge and rich cultural background may wish to use more famous sayings and epigrams to show their talents. For example, in Fujian in 2006, the full moon was a painting, and the lack of the moon was a poem that wrote:

Mr. Yu Qiu once said that greatness disappears in an instant, and noise is another name for short life. In colorful days, life is marked with enchanting marks. At this moment, the so-called blank life may be a kind of indifferent state of mind. There is a philosopher's cloud: saints, ordinary people want peace of mind. Sometimes, life needs to be hidden and the soul needs to sting. To prepare for the future in hibernation is to accumulate energy. After storing water, you can open the box to drain water, and then you can irrigate the land.

Leave some blank space for life, I think quietly. Eternity is a calm state of mind. Say goodbye to busy life and look down on life. The taste of life is nothing more than poetry, wine, philosophy and love. In the blank space, singing useless poems, drinking useless wine, reading useless books, feeling useless, and finally becoming useless people, adding a little color to life. Just like a hermit, drinking wine at dusk, watching the sun from east to west, watching the storm surge, living poetically. In my mind, only by living simply can I live freely, just like a blank seal, branding my life with leisure feelings; With leisure, I feel that I am the master of life.

I remember Heidegger once said that life is full of achievements, but it still lives poetically in this land. I want to thank Heidegger, the spiritual explorer, for leaving a blank corner in my heart. Let me think calmly when I am upset and sing "If life is between heaven and earth, it is sudden"; Let me steal half a day from my busy schedule and enjoy a time when "when he was young, he got a guest on the moon, not by the plum blossom, but by the willow". For example, Mr. Wu Liu said that "if you are pregnant, you can go alone, or plant a stick to sow"; For example, Mr. Dongpo "recited the poem of the bright moon and sang the chapter of grace"; For example, Thoreau guards Walden Lake, Hemingway overlooks Kilimanjaro's snow … They are all poets, living poetically in their own empty world.

The examinee quoted a lot of English and Chinese: from Yu's famous words to Heidegger's spirit; From Lu Xun's Mourning for the Past to Zhuangzi's Quotations: from Du Liniang's The Peony Pavilion to Mr. Wu Liu's The Ideal Picture, and then to Mr. Dongpo's Songs of Red Cliff; From Thoreau guarding Walden Lake to Hemingway overlooking the snow scene of Kilimanjaro ... its broad vision, rich materials, dense information and exquisite language are amazing.

In a word, high school students should get rid of the unattainable idea of "literary talent" in language, read more contemporary fine prose with literary talent and excellent college entrance examination with distinctive language, establish language goals suitable for them, master methods and train carefully. In this way, in a relatively short period of time, you can make your article flash bright colors.
