语言(对话)描写
一、概述
一个人的言行能反映一个人的态度和思想品质。因此,必要的对话能烘托故事中人物的形象。但是,在读后续写写作中要把握对话描写的分寸:
①对话描写必须为推动故事情节服务,是情节发展的一个环节,每段出现一两句即可;
②对话描写必须反映人物的心理与情感,有利于刻画人物的性格;
③对话描写不宜过长,侧重口语化词汇,避开生僻词汇;
④对话描写要尽可能结合动作描写,明确说话对象,使内容具有画面感;
⑤对话描写中要学会使用感叹词,表达说话人的喜、怒、哀、乐等情绪。
除此之外,描写对话还要注意对话标签的使用位置以及如何做到使对话标签灵动、传神。
2、 使用“对话”标签/正确使用标点符号
(1)说话人+说话内容
“说”后用逗号,引号内第一个字母大写,句尾标点符号放在引号内。
He said,“You are my best friend!”
(2) 说话内容+说话人
陈述句引号内用逗号,引号外第一个字母小写:疑问句或感叹句引号内用问号或感叹号,引号外第一个字母小写。且“某人说”可以写作“sb.said也可以写作“said sb.”
①"Yes," he said.
②"You may both go," said Andy.
③"Don't move," she said to Mike in a soft voice.
(3)说话内容+说话人+说话内容
“某人说”可以写作“sb.said”也可以写作“said sb.“
“某人说”前面引号内用逗号,引号外第一个字母小写。
“某人说”后面如果用句号,则后面引号内第一个字母大写;
“某人说”后面如果用逗号,则后面引号内第一个字母小写。
①“That's cool,”he said.“Can l have a try?”
②“You'd better let me go, teased her twin brother, William. “There are dangers allover this place.”
③“You can go any place you want,” Amy said, “but l think you'll find what you need.”
(对话标签在后或者在句子中间时,如果主语事情次,则可以倒装。而代词不可以倒装。)
三、避免重复使用 say
如果续写中语言描写较多,那么一定要避免通篇都是“said”,而要灵活多变地使用表示“说”的动词。

⑪嘲笑说:sneered
⑫责备地说:scolded
⑬要求说:demanded

例:“What is the matter now?” asked his wife. “I just can't remember why I come back and where I am supposed to be going on such a hot summer day," replied the professor. However,the real reason was that he forgot where he had left his children. Sensing something wrong, Mrs.Smith didn't believe his words, because whenever he told a lie, he would usually blink his eyes quickly. “Tell me the truth,” ordered his wife. “As you told me, I didn't forget where I put the name of that town, but I forget the station where I left our children!” whispered the professor, his voice trembling. “What a bad memory!” shouted his wife.
“现在怎么了?”他的妻子问道。“我只是记不清我为什么回来,也
