After doing research for one year, I invented a time machine, which was shaped like a star with a leather seat, a starting lever and the main panel.So magical was it that it could take me to the places where I wanted to go as long as I cried out its name.
One day, before sitting myself in the leather seat, I gave it a last check and then pushed the lever on the main panel.Gradually I flied away. All of a sudden,I found myself standing on a magical campus and met a friendly boy.Soon we became good friends and accompanied by him, I experienced many adventures ...
■写作项目——Write a story about aliens
本单元的写作任务是基于教材所给的漫画提示写一个有关外星人的故事,写作的核心在于故事情节的打造。为了避免平铺直叙带来的枯燥乏味,故事情节的安排需“一波三折”。故事的发展应有高潮(climax),高潮有时候是故事情节中的“危机”点,有时候是故事发展的转折点。
写作技法点拨
“一波三折”式故事情节的安排可借鉴下图:
“一波三折”式故事情节的实现可采用以下几条途径:
(一)制造外部冲突
设置冲突场景,给情节发展增加障碍或挑战,有助于将故事情节推上顶峰。
1.增加意外情节
The next minute, the porridge boiled over and put out the fire. Jenna panicked. Thankfully, Jeff stayed calm and turned off the gas quickly. But the stove was a mess.(发生意外,面临挑战→情节线开始上升)
2.设置危急场景
The rain had caused the river to rise and the car was half submerged (淹没), trapped against a tree, and the passenger seat was underwater. Jonda was filled with a sense of dread.(情况危急,刻不容缓→情节发展到顶峰)
3.制造角色冲突
①Somehow one of teammates began complaining about Bryce. Feeling frustrated and aggrieved, Bryce argued that he just tried to get scores.(相互指责→产生不满情绪,矛盾升级)
②But I was determined to teach the little wild one a lesson.“You can't stay in the house if you don't listen to me,” I said sternly (严厉地).Instead of being obedient, Jenny stepped outside, facing me in a challenging way.(愤怒的语言与逆反的行为→冲突激化)
(二)放大内心冲突
放大人物的内心冲突,从而营造一种高度紧张和不确定的氛围,推动情节的发展。
That evening, she went back home alone, thinking if she would avoid Heidi forever.And then she thought about how they had played together since they were just three years old.(内心冲突,犹豫不决→出现不确定性,引发冲突)
(三)渲染紧张氛围
灵活运用环境描写或对话描写能起到渲染紧张氛围以及烘托故事高潮的作用。
Officer Jonda was driving on a dangerous road one cold, dark winter night. The storm made it difficult to see, but she could tell the car in front of her was swaying.(寒冷、漆黑的冬夜,危险的路况,暴雨倾盆→气氛紧张、危机四伏)
(四)故事的结局
故事由起始阶段的发展,引起矛盾冲突,进入高潮之后,随着矛盾的解决,最后又趋于平静,迎接结局的到来。
His heart beat fast. His cherished dream was realized. The steel bonds (锁链) have been burst (砸碎) and now, armed with a new weapon, he had returned to the fighting ranks and to life.(铁链已砸碎,思想已解放,愿望也实现→问题得到解决,拿起新的武器,又投入新的生活)

3.制造角色冲突
⑤What will occur between the boy and the monster?
The monster will run_after_the_boy (追着男孩跑) as if it's about to attack him.
[情节走向:怪物追逐男孩→形势愈发严峻]

⑥How will the boy feel when he is running away from the monster?
Hearing the monster's heavy footsteps behind him, he will be_terribly_frightened (惊恐万状) and try to find a place to hide but finally, he will find in despair there is nowhere to escape.
[情节走向:被怪物追击,内心惶恐不安;无处可藏,陷入绝望→冲突发展到顶峰]
(三)渲染紧张氛围
⑦What will happen between the boy and the alien?
The boy will ask_the_alien_for_help (向外星人求助) but the alien will just laugh a lot.
[氛围渲染:紧急时刻,男孩求助外星人,他却大笑不止→紧张的氛围]
(四)打造意外结尾
⑧How is the story going to end?
“Come back, baby.” The alien calls back the monster and smiles at the boy, “This is my baby pet. He is very friendly and he_just_wants_to_greet_you (他只是想要欢迎你)!”
[故事结局:情节陡然逆转,出现意想不到的结果。这种结尾既在意料之外,又在情理之中,符合生活实际,从而形成独特的艺术魅力。]

The rain was coming down so hard that each drop seemed to explode as it hit the roof of the car.

The rain beat down continuously; it was completely dark outside, and the road was deserted except for him and his car.
