叙事记叙文通常要将时间、地点、人物、事件的起因、经过和结果六个要素交代清楚。好的叙事记叙文具有事件描述具体、故事生动感人和写作主旨明确等特征。高中英语写作中的叙事类记叙文要注意以下几个方面:
1.重组材料,确定要点。叙事记叙文写作前要进行立意、构思和选材等一系列过程,高考中的叙事记叙文一般为控制性写作,通常会提供短文的主题和写作内容,学生只需对提供的材料进行再加工,确定写作顺序、要点和重点,拟定使用的句型和词组即可组织写作。
2.结构完整,前后呼应。叙事记叙文必须要有头有尾。一般来说,记叙时要把与一件事有关的六要素都交代清楚。文章的主题和内容要一致,文章的结尾与开头要呼应。
3.人称统一,线索明确。记叙文可用“你、我、他”三种人称,但如果题目要求使用某种人称,则必须遵循要求;叙事记叙文一般按照事件发展的先后顺序进行叙述。
叙事类记叙文的话题通常和中学生的生活经历有关,如校园生活、旅游、交通、交友等,平时要注意积累这些方面的词汇和短语。叙事类记叙文常用一般过去时,但也要注意灵活运用其他时态。
