本文的语篇类型为小说,节选自艾萨克·阿西莫夫的科幻小说《男孩的挚友》。文章讲述了在月球上出生的Jimmy与一直陪伴他的机器狗的故事。阅读时注意把握小说的结构及其写作手法,特别是作者在推动情节发展及刻画人物形象等方面采用的写作技巧。如本文塑造Jimmy这个人物形象时,作者采用了肖像描写和动作描写相结合的手法,如“His arms and legs were long and agile.He looked thicker and stubbier with his spacesuit on,but he could handle the lunar gravity as no Earth-born human being could.”生动地刻画了Jimmy这个生活在月球上的地球人的形象。
(一)赏用词之妙
1.I haven't really seen one since I left Earth 15 years ago.
赏析:本句使用副词really加强语气,突出了安德森先生因很久没有见过真正的狗而发出的感慨。
2.Jimmy frowned. “Robutt isn't an imitation, Dad.”
赏析:此处frowned“皱眉”用词精妙,用一个面部表情表达出了吉米对父亲的话不赞成。
3.Jimmy held Robutt tightly. He was frowning, too, and the desperate look on his face meant that he wouldn't change his mind.
赏析:本句中的副词tightly和形容词desperate精确地描述了吉米对罗布特的依依不舍之情。

(二)赏句式之高
1.Because he's Moon-born and can't visit Earth. That's why I'm bringing one here.I think it's the first one ever on the Moon.
赏析:本句使用That's why ...句式解释了带真正的狗到月球的原因,其中why引导表语从句。
2.“From Earth, Dad?”
赏析:直接引语From Earth, Dad?是疑问句的省略,形式简洁灵活,在上下文中穿插使用可以承上启下,推动情节的发展。

Perhaps this_is_why_when_he_spoke_to_me,_tears came stinging my eyes.
也许这就是为什么当他对我说话时,泪水刺痛了我的眼睛。
(三)赏描摹之韵
1.(场景描写)The outer side of the crater sloped southward and the Earth, which was low in the southern sky, was nearly full, so that the entire crater-slope was brightly lit.The slope was a gentle one and even the weight of the spacesuit couldn't keep Jimmy from racing up it in a floating hop that made the gravity seem nonexistent.
赏析:前面一句为我们呈现了月球上环形山斜坡被照亮的静态画面,后面一句则描绘了一个动态场景:斜坡很是平缓, 即使加上太空服的重量, 还是不能阻止吉米跳着跃向山坡, 看上去就像重力似乎不存在一样。
2.(动作描写)Jimmy couldn't go wrong while Robutt was around, tripping him when he was too near a rock, or jumping on him to show how much he loved him, or circling around and squeaking low and scared when Jimmy hid behind a rock, when all the time Robutt knew well enough where he was.
赏析:小说中人物形象的塑造常采用精彩的肖像描写、个性化的语言描写、细腻的心理描写以及生动传神的动作描写等手法,使人物形象个性鲜明。如此处塑造机器狗Robutt的形象时,作者采用了动作描写的手法,使形象刻画得栩栩如生、跃然纸上。
