Chapter 13 Writing Articles and Making Movies

Since you were young, you must have written many travel notes and visit reports, right? Do you find it difficult to write? You may find it difficult, even more difficult than ordinary composition.The reason is that after you visit a scenic spot, visit a museum or a factory, you leave too many memories in your heart.So your mind is confused, and you don't know where to start with the thousands of threads. If so, let me teach you a method, it will be much easier. To write this kind of article, first you have to decide the viewing angle. You can assume that you are a god and look down on all living beings from the sky. Because you know everything, you can introduce it as a whole.For example, if you write about the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, you can say:

"The world-famous Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York is located next to Central Park in Manhattan, at Fifth Avenue and Eighty-second Street. In this museum, which was built in 1870 and now has a total area of ​​130,000 square meters, there are collections of Egyptian, There are more than three million works of art from ancient times to modern times, including paintings, sculptures, photography, clothing, furniture, musical instruments, etc. from Babylon, Greece, Rome, the Far East, the Near East, Asia, Europe, Africa, and the Americas. What I will introduce to you today is another way of writing——

You are not an "omniscient" god, you turn back to an ordinary person, from "overlooking from the sky" to "walking in from the ground", isn't that exactly what happened when you visited? Since you took a quick look at the flowers and just walked around, think about it now and take a look at the flowers again! So you can write: "Passing through a dense forest and grassland in Central Park, I saw the Metropolitan Museum of Art from a distance, and thought it was a white palace. .Walk up dozens of broad stone steps and enter the tall main hall. What you see are tourists from all over the world, stone carvings on all sides and a large bottle of wine.

Big vase of flowers.We followed the guide into the Egyptian department and saw mysterious mummies, sarcophagi, and strange texts on them. Character.Also enter a hall with a transparent roof, surrounded by a circle of pools, with a tall ancient Egyptian temple in the middle.I I threw coins into the pool with my classmates and made a wish, hoping to visit here in the future..." How easy it is! You don’t need to have any information, can’t you write a vivid travel note? And because you write along the “true memories” and tell the story in an orderly manner, why don’t you know how to write?

Please don't say that it is not wise to write like a "running account".You have to know that many great writers since ancient times have used this way of walking, traveling and writing all the way to complete their immortal works. If you don’t believe me, give me two examples—— Have you read Tao Yuanming's "Return to the Home"? Let's look at the second paragraph (translated into vernacular): "The boat moved forward gently, and the wind fluttered my clothes. I asked the passers-by for directions, and I hated that the morning light was not bright enough. I finally saw the gate and corner of my house, and I ran forward excitedly. The servant boy came out to welcome the child. Waiting at the gate. The path in the yard is long

Weeds, but fortunately the pines and chrysanthemums are still lush.I took the child into the house, and there was already a bottle full of wine.While drinking and drinking, I looked happily at the old trees in the garden.Leaning against the south window feels very happy, even if the place is small, I feel safe and self-sufficient.I saw the shadow of the trees in the garden under the sun It's fun to keep moving; the door is closed, and although there are few visitors, there is a sense of leisure.Then I walked into the garden with a cane and took a walk, looking up from time to time.I saw the clouds floating out of the valley freely, and the birds flew back home one by one when they were tired.The setting sun is gradually darkening, I still caress

Seeing the lone pine, I can’t bear to enter the house..." Looking back and thinking about it carefully, can you almost draw a comic strip to connect those pictures together? It's so easy! Because everything goes in a straight line—the boat ride, the morning light drive, asking for directions, seeing the house, coming in, drinking, sitting and resting, looking around.Then I walked into the yard for a walk, watching the sky, white clouds, birds, and then the sky darkened... Isn’t this article about the day when Tao Yuanming came home? He didn’t describe how far the road was, where his home was, or how big his home was or how many people there were. , but how lively it is to read!
