1, select the right object
The key to the comparison between people and things is to choose an appropriate object as a metaphor to accurately convey the characteristics of people to be expressed. First of all, we should make clear the characteristics of the characters to be described, and then find the matching objects. For example, if you want to describe a hardworking person, you can choose bees as an analogy, because bees collect nectar diligently; If you want to describe a smart person, you can choose a fox as a metaphor, because foxes are famous for their cunning wisdom.
2. Highlight people's characteristics
In the writing of metaphor, we should highlight the characteristics of characters so that readers can clearly understand the connotation to be expressed. This requires the author to have a deep understanding of the characteristics of the selected object and link it with the characteristics of people. It can be realized by concrete description, emotional rendering and other techniques.
For example, to describe a firm person, we can express the characteristics of sticking to faith by describing the deep roots and leafy oak trees; If you want to describe a gentle and kind person, you can convey his gentle character by describing the gentle flow of streams.
3, deepen the image impression
The purpose of metaphor is to make readers remember the characters more deeply, so it is necessary to add details, metaphors, symbols and other elements in the description to enhance readers' impression of the characters. These elements can be the modification of words, such as the use of adjectives and rhetorical devices, or the description of specific scenes, such as putting characters in specific environments to highlight their characteristics.
For example, if you want to describe a passionate person, you can express his passionate characteristics with strong colors and energetic words; If you want to describe a man full of wisdom, you can put him in the library, surrounded by books, to express his erudition and intelligence.
To sum up, it is necessary to choose suitable objects, describe people's words with objects, and express their characteristics by highlighting their characteristics and deepening their image impression. This way of writing can not only enrich the expressive force of literary works, but also make readers understand and feel the characters more deeply, thus enhancing the artistic value of works.
