多法并用，写好人物心理

【问题导读】

心理描写是指文章中对人物在特定环境中的心理状态、精神面貌和内心活动的描写。心理描写能够表现人物的所思所想，让人物吐露自己的心声，说出他的欢乐和悲伤、矛盾和愁郁、忧虑和希望，使读者看透人物的外表，看到人物的内心世界。心理描写还可以细腻、生动而真实地展示人物的心路历程，从而更好地揭示出人物的性格特点。通过人物的心理描写，作者能够揭示其内心世界，反映其性格，突出其形象。因此，通过人物的心理描写，读者可以直观地体会人物丰富而复杂的思想感情，了解其行为背后的含义，让文章更加充实。

高考读后续写的文本多为故事类的记叙文，其中对文章人物的理解和描写直接影响着续写部分的质量。作为人物刻画的重要方法之一，心理描写在文本理解和续写中尤为重要。英语读后续写中常见的心理描写有直接心理描写（主要是内心独白和神态描写）和间接心理描写（主要是动作描写和环境描写）。

1. 内心独白

内心独白就是非常直白地把一个人物的内心想法展示出来，喜厌、爱恨都从这个人物出发进行勾勒，如“想什么”“感到怎么样”， 通常用feel、think、believe、guess、wonder、whisper等动词来表达。内心独白可以直接、充分地展现一个人物的心路历程和情感挣扎。

例句赏析：At the sight of the ferocious wolf， I felt seized by a strong sense of horror.

用felt seized by a strong sense of horror来形容“我”看到狼的时候产生的恐惧。

2. 神态描写

神态描写指对人物面部五官的描写。描写时用表示表情、神态的词语，例如哭丧着脸、专注的神情等。神态描写通过描写人物的脸庞、眼睛、嘴巴、牙齿等来表现人物的喜、怒、哀、乐。

例句赏析：His face beamed and his bright smile lit up the room when the mother kissed the baby on the cheek.

本句把笑容比作光明，展现了当妈妈轻吻孩子脸庞时孩子的喜悦。

3. 动作描写

动作描写是对人物行为的描写。人物的每一个行为都受其思想、性格的制约。因此，具体细致地描写某一人物在某一情况下所做出的动作反应，可以显示出人物的情绪和心理活动。

例句赏析：He gave a jump in the air， twirled， ran a few steps， stopped， looked allround， sniffed the smells of afternoon， and then set off walking down through the orchard.本句通过一连串的动作， 如give a jump、twirl、run、stop、look all around、sniff、set offwalking等描绘了一个开心欢乐的场面。

4. 语言描写

语言描写是对人物对话及语气的描写。它能够表现人物的思想感情，反映人物的心理活动。它虽然不如独白那么直接，但同样可以让人感受到人物的情感变化，窥见人物的心灵深处。

例句赏析：Marsha chewed her lip.“You didnt come to see me！”

本句通过语言以及说话时的神情，体现了说话人的紧张。

5. 环境描写

环境描写包括对人物所处的社会环境和自然环境的描写。读后续写中的环境描写更多的是对自然环境的描写，通过对自然环境的描写来交代故事发生的背景，烘托人物的心情。作者也经常会用环境描写来结尾，突出主题。

例句赏析：The clear blue sky was dotted with fluttering larks.

本句通过描写碧空与翩翩飞舞的云雀相互映衬，以烘托主人公喜悦的心情。

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。（2022年大湾区联考）

Bird song

“Let it go！”Caroline yelled. Two boys were bending over a bird， as a third one heldthe poor creature roughly by its wings.“You'll hurt it.”Caroline looked fearful of the bird.

“That's the point，”the boys laughed. The tallest stood up and glared at Caroline.“Here， catch this！”he said as he sailed the now broken‑winged bird at Caroline. The poorcreature cried in pain， as its wings had been badly damaged. The boys ran off， laughing attheir handiwork.

Caroline bent down to carefully pick up the bird. The poor feathered soul was wriggling（扭动）about， with a fearful look in its eyes.“Don't worry，”Caroline whisperedsoftly. She took a handkerchief from her pocket and gently placed the bird on it.

Caroline walked as quickly as she could back to her house， careful not to shake thebird around too much. She found a shoe box， filled it with soft cotton balls and then laid thebird down in its new nesting place.

“Let me get you some water and food. That's the least I can do.”she took a tiny saucerfrom the kitchen， filled it with water， and placed it in a corner of the box. She managed tofind some sunflower seeds， as that was the only bird‑friendly food she could think of. Carolinewas worried. She didnt want the bird to die. The poor bird was now fast asleep， nodoubt tired out from its earlier suffering.“Please dont die，”Caroline whispered tearfully.

If there was anyone whom she could turn to， it would be Mr Roberts. Mr Roberts wasworking at the Nature Museum. He had bird feeders throughout his yard， and sometimeswould drop in her science class at school. Caroline never knew there was so much informationabout birds， until hearing him speak. She figured he would know what to do.

注意：续写词数应为150左右。

Paragraph 1：

Caroline called Mr Roberts and hurriedly told him her tale._________________

Paragraph 2：

In the morning， the Blackwell Bird Rescue Society called， informing Caroline that a car would come to pick up the bird at 10 am.________________________

一、故事梳理

本文讲述了小女孩卡罗琳拯救一只受伤小鸟的故事。卡罗琳阻止了三个男孩以折磨小鸟为乐的行为，把受伤严重的小鸟带回家，尽自己所能为小鸟搭窝、喂食、喂水。但由于自己的动物知识有限，卡罗琳不知道怎样救治小鸟，于是向在自然博物馆工作的罗伯茨先生求助。

二、心理描写方法

（一）内心独白

根据所给材料第五段中的“ Caroline was worried. She didnt want the bird to die.”可知，卡罗琳看到小鸟受伤严重，很担心，这也进一步反映出卡罗琳的善良以及她对小动物的关爱。

我们在续写部分也可以采用这种心理描写方式，比如在第一段描写卡罗琳和罗伯茨先生通话后的情节时，可以用“After hanging up， Caroline felt greatly relieved.”来描写卡罗琳的心理活动。在续写第二段，描述卡罗琳与小鸟告别的情节时，我们可以这样写：“‘It is time to say goodbye，’Caroline whispered.‘Hopefully， these good people canhelp you get better， so you can fly again.’”。

（二）神态描写

所给材料第一段中的“Caroline looked fearful of the bird.”就是通过描写面部表情来展现卡罗琳的担心。

在续写的部分，我们也可以尝试运用神态描写，比如描述卡罗琳得知会有专业人员来救助小鸟的情节时，可以用句子“Knowing a car was on the way to pick up the poorbird， Caroline smiled with relief.”来体现她的如释重负。

（三）动作描写

所给材料运用最多的就是动作描写，以此来展现人物的心理。文章第一段中的yelled体现了卡罗琳的愤怒；文章第三、四段运用了一系列的动作描写（如bent downto carefully pick up、whispered softly、took、gently placed、walked as quickly as she could、careful not to shake）来体现卡罗琳对受伤的小鸟的精心爱护和疼惜以及她想要救助小鸟的急切的心情。

我们在后面的续写部分也可以延续这种写作风格，通过动作描写来展现人物的心理。比如，可以通过动作描写“She checked the sleeping bird， which was peacefullysleeping in the box， again and again， praying that it would survive the night.”来体现卡罗琳对受伤小鸟能否活下来的担忧。在续写第二段，我们也可以通过动作描写“Standingat the door， Caroline watched the driver get back into the car， which slowly drove awayand disappeared from sight.”来体现卡罗琳对小鸟的恋恋不舍。
