The ancients said that "the phoenix head and leopard tail" meant that the beginning should be written with grace and color. Just like the head of the phoenix, some people say that "a good beginning is half the battle", which shows the importance of beginning. Due to the limitation of time and space, the beginning of the composition in the examination room is concise, vivid and beautiful. The following methods can be considered.
1. Cut to the chase. The so-called "straight to the point" is a figurative statement, which refers to a straightforward way of writing articles. For example, "Talking about backbone" shows the point at the beginning: "We China people have backbone." "Praise of Poplar" touched on the theme at the beginning: "Poplar is really extraordinary, I praise Poplar!" This method should be the first choice for writing in the examination room.
2. The background is gradient. For example, "Kong Ji Ji Ji" begins: "The big square counter in the street ... can warm wine at any time". "Under the scorching sun and heavy rain" begins: "June 15, it's crazy!" These beginnings explain the time, place, festival, climate or the background and environment of the topic.
3. Ask questions. Flashback the result of things first, set suspense, or set questions to break the theme first and cause explanation or discussion. For example, Colorful Flowers begins with a question: "Why do flowers have all kinds of beautiful and bright colors?" The purpose of this opening method is to set suspense, attract readers' attention, stimulate readers' interest, increase the faltering of the article and show the beauty of the layout of the article. This opening technique appears frequently in the composition of the senior high school entrance examination.
4. Famous sayings and epigrams. Quoting epigrams, famous sayings, poems or proverbs at the beginning can attract readers and help highlight the center. For example, Cheng Yi's words were quoted at the beginning of Doubt and Learning: "Scholars must doubt first". This opening method is also an easy method for general candidates to master and use. The well-known epigram opening can often enhance the momentum of the opening, making people feel abrupt, eventful and lofty. Of course, the quotation should be as accurate as possible to avoid intellectual errors.
5. Excellent metaphor. Metaphor is used at the beginning to arouse the reader's interest in the thing or truth to be explained. For example, "China Stone Arch Bridge" begins: "The bridge opening of the stone arch bridge bends like a rainbow." Ma Shuo begins: "There is Bole in the world, and then there is a swift horse." Taking the story of Bole and Maxima as a metaphor leads to the central argument. Since it is a metaphor, we should pay attention to the similarity between "other things" and this topic, and we can't force it.
Generally speaking, the common mistakes at the end of students' compositions are: ① gild the lily. That is to say, the full text is over, which should be thought-provoking, but the author is still not at ease, determined to shake a few words, explain the whereabouts of people who don't need to be explained one by one, and pierce the meaning that could have been realized. Empty slogans. Finally, in order to show his position and attitude, he shouted something irrelevant to the content of the article, which was a big theme. 3 sloppily. The meaning of the ending is clear, but it is too late to finish, which conflicts with the theme of the article.
From this point of view, the ending of the senior high school entrance examination composition is particularly important. How to write a good ending and improve the quality of exam composition? The following are the commonly used ending techniques for senior high school entrance examination compositions.
1. Natural bunching. No matter what style of article, after expressing the content, it naturally closes the full text, instead of designing profound philosophical sentences and carving rich symbolic forms. This ending is called "natural ending". For example, at the end of My Uncle Yule, "When we come back, we will take the St. Marlowe boat to avoid meeting him again." And Mr. Fujino's ending all adopt this method.
2. End-to-end echo. The end should echo the beginning, write a sentence that echoes the beginning, and don't simply repeat it. This way of ending is a common way of ending all kinds of articles. This method can arouse readers' psychological aesthetic feeling and produce a feeling of rounded head and tail. For example, "Back" begins with "I haven't seen my father for more than two years, and what I can't forget most is his back". At the end, it says, "I don't know when I will see him again." Another example is "Praise of Poplar", which begins with "Poplar is really extraordinary, I praise Poplar." At the end, it said, "... I want to praise Bai Shu loudly. "
3. Zhang Xianzhi's style chess pieces. This way of ending is to express the theme clearly in concise language at the end of the article. For example, at the end of Jujube Kernel, it reads: "Changing the nation does not mean changing the national feelings. No nation is so attached to its homeland as we are." At the end of "Remember a Spinning Wheel", I wrote: "It is a pleasure to struggle with difficulties. -Remember a spinning wheel. "
4. Famous sayings and epigrams. It often appears at the end of essays, narratives and essays. In a few words, it expresses profound and thought-provoking philosophical or warning content, which is deeply imprinted in readers' hearts and has the effect of "endless words and endless meanings". At the end of "Pear Blossoms on the Postal Road", I wrote: "I can't help but think of a sentence' Pears on the Postal Road are everywhere'."
5. Lyric argument. Ending an article with lyrical comments can express the feelings of the author, arouse the emotional waves of readers and arouse their voices, which has a strong artistic appeal. For example, at the end of "Flower Market", I wrote: "I think: Hope doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, just like the road on the ground; In fact, there is no road on the ground. If there are more people walking, it will become a road. "
Leave a Beautiful Back —— Examples of wonderful methods at the end of composition in examination room
Regarding the beginning and end of the composition, the ancients have long said that "the limelight is a leopard's tail." The writing time in the examination room is short and the grading requirements are high. It is necessary to impress the marking teacher in a limited time and get an ideal evaluation, especially at the beginning and end. Some people say that the beginning of the composition in the examination room should be like "Erguotou", and you will burst into tears as soon as you enter, which shows that the beginning of the composition should leave a deep impression on people. In my opinion, the end of the composition should be like "Biluochun", with lingering fragrance and endless aftertaste. Wonderful oral administration can certainly make people shine at the moment and yearn for it; The wonderful ending can also make people can't help but cover up and amaze. What are the common problems at the end of students' compositions in the examination room? First of all, it has a head and no tail. Due to the lack of overall conception, the ending is like a "semi-finished" project, which is unclear, ambiguous and inadequate. But anticlimactic. Some students often have a sense of success after completing the main part, so they end up hastily, so that the ending is dull and monotonous. The third is to gild the lily. Or moaning without illness, or artificially inflating, insisting on adding a "bright tail" to the article, making the ending that should be a bright spot become a "black spot" of the article, making the marking teacher sigh. Students should pay attention to two points at the end of the composition in the examination room: First, they should have a strong central meaning, that is, don't forget to serve the performance center. If the main part of the composition is "off topic", it must be remedied at the end. Second, to be refined, stop when it is time. It should help readers understand the content of the article more deeply and thoroughly, and help readers further understand the central meaning of the article, which is thought-provoking, thought-provoking, amazing and unforgettable. Here are seven common ways to finish writing in the examination room.
The first is the natural beam collection method. This method is often used in narrative, and the operation method is: it ends naturally with the end of the event. The advantage of this method is neatness and no nonsense. For example, the article "God's Answer" ends like this:
The ghost was silent. He is not everywhere, but has nothing. Family, friendship and love … are all accompanied by honesty. He is a dirty ghost and can only go to hell! "Go to hell!" God said and floated away.
The second is to summarize the method of doing the problem. This method is the crowning touch. For example, at the end of Honest Wandering:
On the way back, time pointed to the "happiness", "status" and "competition" that fell into the water and said meaningfully: "Without honesty, happiness will not last long, status is false, and competition will inevitably fail."
The third is lyrical argument. That is, on the basis of narration, use lyricism and discussion to highlight the center, so that people can understand your writing intention and give people a clear understanding. Such as the end of the article "Long Sword and Short Sword":
We can't choose between long swords and daggers; We can't choose between cleverness and stupidity. What we can choose is to hold the sword in our hands and then move on, move on, move on. ...
The fourth is to use question syntax skillfully. In other words, on the basis of the above, use questions to collect the full text to express feelings and deepen the center. Such as the end of the article "Father":
I know, I am soaked with my father's sweat. Father, how can I express my eternal guilt and love for you?
The fifth is the head-tail reference method. This is the usual way to end the composition in the examination room. This method can make the structure of the article complete, but it is easy to be dull and belongs to a relatively "safe" writing method. Such as the beginning and end of "This is how I see life":
The vast world and changing time and space naturally make life so beautiful. As natural pets, we all have our own lives. However, how do people who call themselves "the spirit of all things" view life? (start)
This is the way I look at life. (End)
The sixth is to borrow famous sentences. Borrowing famous sentences can not only make the article concise, but also add literary grace. You can quote directly or copy skillfully. For example, an article entitled "In the Mood for Love" quoted Mr. Liang Qichao's "On young chinese" at the end:
When the red sun was born, its road was bright. When a river comes down, it pours into Wang Yang. Being a general has great achievements, great achievements. I am a red sun, a river and a sword! This is my mood for love!
Seventh, the meaning is still unfinished. This ending leaves room for thinking, and it can get the effect of "reverberation around the beam for three days". For example, an article about "reverse thinking" is called "Ten minus one equals ...", and it ends like this:
Ten minus one equals nine. Ten minus one is not nine. Ten MINUS one equals ...
The above are some commonly used ending methods of composition in examination room, but the so-called "writing is not fixed" and "clever use of one thought" cannot be rigidly adhered to in practical application. As long as students practice more, practice makes perfect. Let our exam composition leave a beautiful back for the marking teacher and let this back bring you the joy of success.
In recent years, college entrance examination compositions have all appeared in the form of "topic compositions". Topic composition is a kind of composition proposition form that stipulates a relatively wide writing range to inspire students to think, activate students' association and imagination, not restrict or minimize stylistic restrictions, and give students more freedom of choice. It is widely praised for its openness of proposition, divergence of thinking, relevance of content, diversity of style and diversity of evaluation criteria. Based on my own experience in guiding students' composition in recent years, the author talks about four points that are really not new but very useful.
