敘述法(narration)
敘述法發(fā)展段落主要是按照事物本身的時(shí)間或空間的排列順序,通過(guò)對(duì)一些特有過(guò)渡連接詞的使用,有層次分步驟地表達(dá)主題句的一種寫(xiě)作手段。用這種方法展開(kāi)段落,作者能夠清楚連貫地交待事物的本末,從而可以使讀者可以清晰、完整地理解文章的含義,例如:,
In the flat opposite, a woman heard the noise outside. When she looked out through the window, she discovered that her neighbor was threatened by someone. She immediately called the police station. In answer to the call, a patrol police car arrived at the scene of the crime quickly. Three policemen went inside the flat at once, and others guarded outside the building to prevent anyone from escaping.,
這段是按照事物發(fā)展的先后順序,敘述從發(fā)現(xiàn)案情、報(bào)警、到警察趕到、包圍現(xiàn)場(chǎng)的過(guò)程。全文脈絡(luò)清晰,敘述的層次感強(qiáng),結(jié)構(gòu)緊湊。
常用于敘述法中的過(guò)渡連接詞有:first, an the beginning, to start with, after that, later, then, afterwards, in the end, finally等。
