Asking for an article describing the appearance of a character is as urgent as 300 words!

In literary and artistic works, the appearance of characters is the initial starting point of shaping characters, and it is the first brand laid in the reader's "blank" mind. It is like the first bird song in the forest in the morning, which breaks the silence, attracts the attention of the forest watchers and makes you have to peep at the whole picture of the birds according to the sound. Unfortunately, many of our classmates don't seem to pay much attention to the appearance of the characters. In their compositions, or they stand up and talk endlessly about the names, places of origin, date of birth, height and thinness of the characters; Or a long talk between the characters written in the composition, starting with oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea, and ending with grandchildren and daughters-in-law ... If there are several characters in a work, each character has a set of procedures when it appears. Imagine, this kind of appearance, which looks like a political cadre's resume, has not bored our readers.

How to arrange the appearance of characters? The writing experience of some famous writers is worth appreciating. When the characters in Zhao Shuli's works appear, they never make an isolated and static introduction, but let the characters enter the conflict as soon as they appear, thus showing their personality characteristics, thoughts and feelings. For example, in the Marriage of Little Black Boys, the pedantic and cowardly two Zhuge appeared in the ridicule of the masses that they were "not suitable for planting"; Coming out of the sound of "rotten rice" is the romantic and pungent old girl-Sanxiangu. Through the comic story of "Immortal Taboo", the author skillfully put two superstitious self-mutilation Zhuge and three pretending fairies on the scene one by one in comparison. Although there are only a few strokes, it looks like a smile.

The appearance of Zhan Jieer (Cao Xueqin's real name) in Duanmu Hongliang's Cao Xueqin is another style. It took the author three chapters to write. First, after Kang Xiyan's death, Yunzhen seized the official position, which made Cao Fu panic. My wife was afraid of disaster and hoped for Zhan Jieer, but Zhan Jieer disappeared at this time. So the government was in chaos, asking for a sign and a divination. Many characters in the novel appeared one after another when they were looking for Zhan Jie, ranging from wives, biological mothers and foster mothers to old servants and wet nurses. Although they are all shouting for Sister Zhan, they all have their own ideas. Some are in a hurry, and some are in a hurry; Some are worried about family interests, some are out of affection; Some are afraid of accusations, while others want to please. In this hurry, Sister Zhan appeared. It turned out that he was like a cat, hiding in the original boat and watching the legend of the fairy. The author deserves generosity. Here, the method of "gaining power" is used to pave the way for Zhan's outstanding performance, so as to show his special position in the family and outline him. The more readers are eager for him to appear, the more the author won't let him out, so that you have to call Zhan Jie and look for Zhan Jie with the people in the book.

There is no certain rule or pattern about how characters appear, but they change with the author's unique ideas and the needs of the development of stories and characters in his works. But no matter what kind of appearance, there is a common requirement: let the characters show their personality as soon as they appear, and grab the readers' heartstrings as soon as they appear. Rereading Cao Xueqin's Dream of Red Mansions, we find that there are more than 400 famous surnames, and there are more than 100 active ones. Some run through, some are short-lived, but many people have personalities. Not only do they never do the same thing, but their looks are never mixed. Everyone's looks are very suitable for their own personality. Take Daiyu and Baochai as examples to get a glimpse. Daiyu appeared with the grief of losing her mother and father: sitting in a sedan chair, taking a maid and taking a wet nurse, thinking of "not saying a word, not taking a step", which made readers feel that she was a lonely, sentimental and dependent woman. Baochai, on the other hand, appeared in many possessions and was sent to Jia's house with generous gifts as soon as she appeared. Obviously, she is a well-off feudal lady who keeps up with the times.

We know that the typical art is the unity of sex and individuality. The so-called personality characteristics are to show unique feelings, temperament, hobbies, habits, psychological state, cultural education and so on. Of course, it is far from enough for all this to rely only on those shown when "appearing", it must run through the whole process of personality development. As the first encounter between characters and readers, "appearance" is like a "timpani" on the stage, and its success plays a considerable role. Because from then on, people have reason to demand that his or her personality can be well displayed and displayed as soon as it appears.

Although the characters in students' compositions are not as delicate and vivid as those written by writers, it is absolutely necessary to pay attention to the description of characters' appearance, which is also the only way to make our compositions flexible, readable and attractive. We must completely abandon the author's clumsy writing that he can't wait to stand up for the characters or introduce them to the readers in detail, and learn from the successful experience of famous articles about the appearance of characters to write the appearance of characters well: that is, let the characters show their personality as soon as they appear and grab the readers' heartstrings as soon as they appear.
