Introduce the function of description.

Character description is one of the expressive techniques used by writers when writing articles or novels, and it is also one of the descriptive techniques.

For example, "that person is good or bad, and this person is just like him." The application of profile description technique is to make an article or novel more profound.

It's also very touching.

Profile description, also known as indirect description, means that in literary creation, the author expresses the object to be described by describing the people or environment around him, making it stand out, that is, indirectly portraying the object to be described. In general, the portrayal of characters in literary works often adopts the method of positive description, that is, directly through the description of portraits, language, movements, demeanor and psychology, to express the character, conduct and skills of characters. However, sometimes with the help of some side descriptions, the artistic effect of positive description can often be irreplaceable or difficult to achieve.

So, what kind of artistic charm does profile description have?

First of all, profile description can stimulate people's imagination more.

Profile description is often more witty than frontal description. It can express the described object with economic pen and ink, but it can achieve twice the result with half the effort. In order to show the beauty of Luo Fu, a mulberry picker, the author first describes Luo Fu in a positive way with rhetorical devices such as parallelism and exaggeration: "Moss is a cage and cassia twig is a cage hook. There is a bun on the head and a bright moon in the ear; It's the skirt below, and the purple one is the top. " Here, I focus on the exquisite equipment, beautiful hair style, precious earrings and gorgeous clothes, which show her beautiful face well. If we only use such a positive description, it is still conceptual, lacking in imagery and artistic expression, and cannot give people rich associations. Next, the author describes Luo Fu's beauty with vivid profile: "When the traveler sees Luo Fu, he shoulders his mustache. When the teenager saw Luo Fu, he took off his hat and hung his head. The tiller forgets to plow, and the hoe forgets to hoe; Come to complain, but sit and watch Luo Fu. " This profile description is not only full of rich flavor of life, but more importantly, it vividly and skillfully sets off the beauty of Luo Fu and gives people endless imagination. Luo Fu can't be too beautiful. Here, the description of characters has aroused people's imagination, thus receiving a strong artistic effect.

Secondly, the side description is a useful supplement to the front description.

Brief description is often combined with positive description, and a good brief description can often play a icing on the cake. The first act of Stomatology describes the noisy scene when a family wakes up in the dead of night. After describing the various sounds performed by ventriloquists, the author describes the noise with an overview. At the same time, on the basis of narration, the following comment "Everything is ready" reflects the unspeakable beauty of the performance. Then I wrote down the audience's impressions, and everyone was so lost in thought: "Stretching your neck, staring sideways, silently smiling and sighing, thinking it was wonderful." The excited expression of the audience jumped from the paper. Although this vivid profile describes the audience, it aims to compare and praise the "good" skills of ventriloquists. The third scene describes a fire in the middle of the night. The author tries to describe the complexity of voice through the overlapping of five "100,000" sentences and four "100" words and the exaggeration of "everything", and further praise the "goodness" of ventriloquists' skills. Then, with a stroke of a pen, he wrote the audience's extremely excited reaction: "Everyone changed their colors and left the room. After two wars, they all wanted to go first." Describe the audience's expression, movements, emotions and psychology to the fullest. This thrilling scene makes readers feel that ventriloquism performance has really reached the fascinating point of both form and spirit, and they can't help but marvel.

Third, profile description helps to express the characters.

Although profile description is often combined with positive description to shape characters, it is sometimes inappropriate to use positive description to express characters' personality. Chen Yiling in "Re-examination" is outstanding in talent and noble in quality. She does good deeds consciously and doesn't tell outsiders. Even in the second interview, she didn't give any explanation to others, which decided to express her character by profile description. When describing Chen Yiling's second interview, the author uses a positive description to show her "dull voice", "hard to hide drowsiness" and "dull eyes", and skillfully introduces how helpful she is at ordinary times and how her voice was affected by disaster relief before the second interview. In this way, the glorious image of Chen Yiling has been perfectly reproduced. In addition, through comparison, we can find that profile description can save a lot of pen and ink for positive description, make the structure of the article more concentrated and compact, and make the expression more concise, which is also the advantage of profile description.

The role of introduction description goes beyond this. In addition to the above works, there are many successful models, which are often seen in Mr. Lu Xun's novels. For example, the image of revolutionary Yu Xia in medicine is mainly described in profile. Kong Yiji and Fu also used the technique of profile description. These places deserve our serious consideration, study and reference. In future writing practice, we should consciously use contour description.

Of course, both frontal description and profile description are literary means, aiming at highlighting the object to be described. Therefore, in literary description, which means is not the most important, the key lies in whether it can better express the described object.

For example, if you write a performance, you can describe the audience's performance or the sentences they discuss. You can also use lyrical techniques to describe more richly, and you can also apply this writing in many ways.

Accurately understand the function and meaning of metaphor

Metaphor requires two conditions: two things to be compared must belong to different categories; There must be similarities between the two things to be compared. Metaphorical sentences are generally composed of noumenon, vehicle and figurative words. Metaphor is divided into simile, metaphor and metonymy. These are common sense, which can help us identify what metaphor is.

Understanding metaphor is only the premise, and it is more important to understand the specific function and significance of metaphor in the text.

First, the role of metaphor in different styles

Metaphor plays different roles in different styles (such as poetry, prose, novel, narrative, expository and argumentative). ).

For example, the poem "Sedan in the Year of the Rat" (Dai Weibo)

The mouse married his daughter.

Sitting in a sedan chair 2008

Knock the sun as red as a gong

Blowing the crescent moon is as white as suona

Put the Yangtze River and the Yellow River

When the two strings of erhu

ring

China is drunk.

Many rhetorical devices are used here, such as personification, exaggeration and metaphor. We appreciate it from the perspective of metaphor. Understand the expressive function and significance of metaphor in "beating the sun as a gong/blowing the new moon as a suona/blowing the Yangtze River and the Yellow River as a two-stringed erhu".

These metaphors use China elements, such as gong, suona and erhu. , vividly depicts the national festive and peaceful scene in 2008, and strongly expresses the author's holiday feelings.

For example, the essay Hukou Waterfall (Liang Heng)

..... They are scattered on the beach walls on both sides of the dragon trough, or diamonds find cracks and flow like spring water; Or trickle through the slate and gurgle into a stream; Or sandwiched between stones, wailing. There is one hanging on the wall, shining like a line ... and all this is hidden in the wet mist, covered in a seven-color rainbow, like a symphony and a freehand painting. ……

The rhetorical devices of parallelism and metaphor are used here. We understand its expressive function from the perspective of metaphor.

The author grasps the phenomenon that the Yellow River water rushes into the hukou and splashes on the beach wall, and describes it from two angles of hearing and vision. Symphony describes the richness and momentum of sound; "Freehand brushwork" highlights the level and charm of color. The combination of the two makes us feel the power and poetry of the Yellow River.

For example, the narrative "Going home to get married during the Spring Festival" (Xiao Fuxing)

When he sat down, Ah Rong brought his special box, which was full of hairdressing utensils, mostly from South Korea. A hair clipper is very expensive, which can be said to be his most expensive possessions. That is the treasure he lives on, just like a violinist's violin. When he picks up hair clipper, he always jumps 360 degrees in his hand. This is his habitual action, just like a gunman fiddling with his pistol at will, drawing a silver arc on his palm and blinking intently with his eyes. It's a pleasure to watch the hair clipper dancing flexibly between Ah Rong's fingers, just like a magic wand in a magician's hand. The click sound is rhythmic and full of rhythm. It is the minuet of Aron and the serenade of Aron. Often, he didn't finish his work until midnight. When he was tired, he fell asleep in bed. This voice is always ringing in his dreams, as if bees are constantly flying in his mind.

In this paper, three metaphors have specific expressive functions:

"The Violin Like a Violinist" vividly describes that expensive hairclippers are the treasure that Ah Rong lives on.

The Magic Wand in a Magician's Hand vividly describes Aron's habitual movements when he has a haircut, as well as his devotion and love for the haircut work.

"It's also Aaron's Nocturnal" vividly depicts Aaron's hard haircut, and even brings this fatigue to his dream.

For example, the explanatory article "biological indication" phenomenon.

The phenomenon of determining other components in the geographical environment according to certain characteristics of biological species or their groups or organisms is called biological indicator phenomenon. Biology can represent the environment or some components of the environment, because all components or elements of the geographical environment are closely interdependent and interrelated, and the development of each of them is not independent but carried out in a * * * yoke, that is, the change of one element will cause a series of changes of other elements. Because of this genetic and regular connection of all components, it is possible to use one component to understand other components and determine the rest according to a link in the natural environment. Among all kinds of natural elements, organisms, especially plants and their groups, are the most sensitive and expressive to other elements. To a great extent, plants are a mirror of geographical environment, and they are the focus of this link. It is generally believed that the relatively narrow organisms in the ecological amplitude are more significant than those in the ecological amplitude. The indication of biological community is more reliable than that of a species or its individual.

How to understand the specific meaning of "plants are a mirror of geographical environment to a great extent" in the article?

This paper expounds the close relationship between "plants" and "geographical environment". It emphasizes that "one link in the natural environment determines the rest"; "A change in one element will lead to a series of changes in other elements". Using a mirror as a metaphor, we can vividly feel that there is a significant correlation between "plants" and "geographical environment", and "plants" play an objective role in reflecting "geographical environment".

It can be seen that metaphor has different specific functions in different styles. Generally speaking, metaphor makes the people and things described more vivid; The truth expounded is easier to understand; The characteristics of the explained things are clearer; The emotions expressed are more specific and moving.

Second, metaphor and the difficult breakthrough in actual combat training

How to understand the figurative meaning of sentences in argumentative writing style is relatively difficult. Let's break through this difficulty through practical training.

Contrasting characters from the side means that in literary creation, the author expresses the object to be described by describing the surrounding characters or environment, making it stand out, that is, indirectly describing the object to be described. Its function is to make an article or novel more vivid and touching.
