10、animate verb)”表达人或社会团体的动作和行为,如:see,witness,find,bring,take,know,give,send,escape,surround,kill,deprive,serve,tell,permit,stop,invite,drive,preventfrom等,这类句子往往带有拟人化(personification)的修辞色彩。The Micro-skills Training in writing 表达微技能:表达微技能:inanimate subject 无灵主语无灵主语Have a try 牛刀小试:句子翻译与句型转换1.花园里百花盛开,温和的气

30、西人原始、自然的生命形式,赞美人性美;后者通过都市生活的腐化堕落,揭示都市自然人性的丧失。3.从作者的描述看,作者的观察敏锐,记忆超强,对现象世界十分倾心,对大自然的声音、气味,社会上的人与事怀有浓厚的兴趣。他把大自然与社会生活称为一本“大书”,他从这本“大书”中学到了许多书本上没有的东西,他在自然和社会中倾心体验,尊重生命本真的做法,并非不爱学习,而是为了更好的学习。4.不少评论家觉得沈从文擅长写景,且晴朗明澈,但是缺少深度。也有评论家认为好就好在没有深度,因为没有深度的“看”风景,其实就不为一般的社会价值所局限,这样也就抛弃了自以为是的优越感和置身事外的位置,而是在宇宙万汇的动静之中“看”
31、。5.一次眼光看风景万物,多了一份包涵和宽容,看到的历史也就不是战争、王朝更迭之类的东西,而是千百年来凡夫俗子们的哀乐、努力和命运。它们代表了更为现实逼真的生存和价值。6.抒发的感情真诚感人,不写自己的品学兼优、勤奋用功,而是如实地展现自己的天生的野性,充满了阅读和学习“生活”这本大书所得到的欢欣鼓舞的生命体验,表现了对自然和生命无比好奇和热爱以及泰然面对一切残忍和苦难的生活观。7.学习了这篇传记让我们了解到了沈从文从小如何“读社会这本大书”,感受到他青春期的悲欢得失。由于传主生活经历的太多苦难,加上作者在回忆中不时融入淳厚的情感,让我们读来有某种沉重与辛酸,也让我们学生受到启发:对于强者,生活中的风霜雨雪也和阳光雨露一样,都从不同侧面或者以不同的方式滋润着我们的生命,现实中的曲折、坎坷、苦难可能拓展人的精神空间,让人能更加以阔大的心胸与坚强的意志,去感受生命,理解生活的意义。
