1.03源语篇的叙事结构与视角解读
知识回顾
1
叙事研究关注的是故事在叙事时的技巧,即故事是“如何写的”而不是“写了什么”。叙事结构要素主要包括:(1)叙述者:叙述者与作者不同,作者是写故事的人,叙事者是指说故事的人,这两者是有区别的。(2)叙事视角:即有谁来看待这个故事情节的发展---作者在写故事时,一定会选择一个角度切入,从这个角度来观察事件的起因、经过、发展和结果,并带有自身的情感因素,使得读者在阅读时跟谁着他们的角度去了解整个事件。(3)叙事节奏: 故事文本中包含两种时间,即事件时间与叙述时间。常见的叙事节奏包括概述、扩述、省略等。(4)叙事时序:一篇故事通常包含两种时序,一个是事件发生的顺序,一般是由事件发生的原因、事件发生的经过、事件发生的结果构成,基本不会出现颠倒的情况。另一个是故事叙述的顺序,可以与事件发生的顺序不相一致。
通过结构分析来把握叙事的主题与意义是叙事分析模式的重要贡献。构建叙事分析模式旨在为重建叙事文本的深层结构意义提供方法上的指导,这种研究不再从某个具体故事出发,而是关注研究故事的结构特征,由此突出故事自身的抽象性质。常见的故事叙述模式结构如下:
表1:故事语篇的叙事结构
(1) 故事山 (Story Mountain) 模式: 介绍--- 发展---冲突---解决---结尾。
(2)叙述图示 (Narration Schema) 模式: 引子---情节---高潮---尾声。
(3) 拉波夫 (Labov) 模式:点题---指向 ---进展---评议--- 结局---回应 (coda)
拉波夫结构模式中进展是故事按时间先后顺序的呈现,回答先发生了什么,后发生了什么,故事随着时间的推移不断地演变, 呈现出线性结构,让读者有一条清晰可循的思路。 显然, 拉波夫结构模式中的进展部分概括了故事山结构模式中的“发展---冲突---解决” 以及叙述图式结构模式中的 “情节---高潮”,不同的是故事山结构模式和叙述图示结构模式更强调冲突或者高潮,能更好解释纯故事语篇的结构程式性特征。 相较于叙述图式结构模式, 故事山结构模式更加强调冲突的解决,更加适合解释冲突得以解决的故事语篇的结构程式性特征。 因此以上三种结构模式分别适合解释不同类型故事语篇的叙事结构程式。
语篇的事件的发展是沿着一定的叙述结构与叙述角度展开的。特别是记叙类的文章,作者在语篇中一定事先设定好叙述的视角,即站在谁的角度进行叙述。
表2:故事情节的叙述视角
从内部分析的实践
从外部观察的事件
叙述者作为人物在情节中出现
视角1:主人公自己讲述故事
视角2:见证人讲述主人公的故事
叙述者不是人物,不在情节中出现
视角3:心理分析,或人所不知的作者讲述故事
视角4:作者从外部讲故事

读后续写是一种写作训练方法,它给予学生一定长度的英语阅读材料,抹去文章的中间和结尾部分,要求学生根据所读材料,在理解的基础上进行续写工作,补全内容。 它是借助上下文,通过人与阅读材料之间发生的互动协同作用来训练学生写作能力的一种方法。 在读后续写实践中,要强化叙事与论说的协同。
英语叙事文体与论说文体写作的共同特征
主题观点一致性。文章主题与作者观点是贯穿于整个语篇理解中的核心因素,叙事和论说的主题与观点应在续写过程中与原文语篇相互协调,趋于一致,才能有效地保持文章的主题延续与观点统一。 若在阅读与写作的过程中出现主题观点偏颇或相左,则无法保持语篇中主题和态度的连贯性与合理性。
内容信息完整性。在叙事文体中,故事遵循记叙文体特征,其续写部分应保留原文所出现的人物、情节和场景信息;论说文体则需建立在原文论点和论据的判断基础上,延续原文的论述主张,并提出与原文观点相符的新论点与论据。因此,两种文体的“读后续写”必须模仿并遵循原文文本信息,并进行动态性、创造性的语篇内容协同,使全文内容保持完整性。
逻辑思维合理性。逻辑思维的合理性体现在英语原文与续写段落之间的概念梳理、逻辑推理和因果关系等情境判断之中。叙事文体续写需保持与原文人物、地点、时间、因果关系一致的情节安排合理性,论说文体则维系原文论点、论据、论证所与其续写部分的逻辑相符性,均展现语篇层面上读后续写的逻辑协同特征。
语言连接顺畅性。读后续写既是模仿,又是创造。在语篇材料阅读的过程中,学生习得原文用语,并在表达新内容的同时,创造性地模仿源语文本。在叙事文体和论说文体都可出现词块与句型的重复运用,同时,在语篇中适当运用表达时间、因果或递进等关系的连接词,使前后语篇语言连接自然,行文流畅。
文章体裁统一性。无论是哪种文体的英语文章,原文与续写的文章体裁必须保持一致。叙事文体的记叙性,论说文体的说理性,应在阅读与续写中相互协同互动,延续其文体特征和写作手法,保持其语篇体裁的统一性。
历年高考中以凸显冲突为主要目的的纯故事语篇情节跌宕起伏,实现戏剧性效果。其语篇结构程式可概括为 “介绍---发展---冲突---矛盾解决---结局”。 以凸显主题为主要目的故事语 篇,其情节一般比较平缓且没有高潮,在陈述中通过体现故事事件之间的先后、因果等关系而展开。该类故事语篇结构程式可概括为 “指向---进展---结局”。高考读后续写所给语篇一般而言是简短故事文本,不是复杂文学文本。有主题故事语篇的主题比较单一, 通过简单叙事实现主题凸显;纯故事性的语篇则一般不强调主题的表达,且冲突聚焦。此外,此类语篇篇章结构程式性强,情节上没有太多回环往复,一般不会节外生枝。
▲读后续写中的叙事进程分析及写作构思
拉波夫叙事分析模式对于学生从整体语篇分析的视角 进行阅读具有很强的指导性,有利于提高学生的语篇分析能力,加强文本理解的品质。上文利用拉波 夫的叙事分析模式对该续写语篇进行宏观分析后,学生能更好地把握作者所述故事的整体结构,更加明确地认识故事的主题、发展及作者的情感态度,为接下来的续写活动奠定了良好基础。
阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
Once upon a time, there was a beautiful town and a couple of lovers would often stay on the top of the mountain, enjoying the sunrise and by the sea appreciating the sunset. Everyone who knew them couldn’t help envying them for their happy love.
One day the man was seriously injured and lying in hospital for many days without any consciousness. The woman guarded him by the bed in daytime calling his name nonstop and at night, she would go to the church and pray to God until her tears ran out. A month passed by and the man was still sleeping. Finally, God was so moved by her persistence that he would like to do her a special favor.
God said, “I can help your lover recover on condition that you promise to be a butterfly for three years. Do you agree with that deal?”She said excitedly and firmly, “Yes, I do! Never will I regret doing that.”
The next day, the woman was transformed into a butterfly, flying hurriedly to the hospital. It turned out that the man came to his consciousness and woke up, talking with a doctor.She could not hear what they were talking about because she couldn’t fly into the room. What she could do was to watch her beloved through the windows helplessly.
Another spring came and the butterfly was in a hurry to fly back to see the man, only to find that there was a pretty lady standing by him. At that moment she was so shocked that she almost fell down from the sky. She could hardly believe her eyes. It was said that the man was seriously ill during Christmas and that that pretty female doctor took care of him and that finally they fell in sweet love. The butterfly felt heartbroken. In the following days, she often saw the man take the woman to the top mountain to enjoy the sunrise and to the seaside to appreciate the sunset. All these should have belonged to her. But now they belonged to another woman.
注意:
1. 所续写的短文词数应为 150 左右;
3. 续写部分分为二段,每段的开头语已经为你写好。
Paragraph 1:
The butterfly could do nothing but rest on the man’s shoulder off and on.
Paragraph 2:
God also felt sad and sighed to the butterfly,
叙事进程分析及拓展策略举例:
1.定位故事主题,寻找点题主线
点题是文章作者在叙事之前对要讲的内容进行简短的 概述,会告诉读者到底发生了什么故事。点题不仅能使文章中心突出,主题鲜明,而且能给读者留下深刻的印象。在上述读后续写中,学生经过阅读能很快就能判断点题出现在文章的第一段并可能将其概括为:Once upon a time,there was a couple of lovers whose love was envied by everyone who knew them. 通过锁定文章的点题,学生就知道了作者要讲述的是一对恋人之间的爱情故事,从而对语篇的整体概貌有了初步的整体感知。
2.分析叙事成分,明确目的指向
指向是叙事者对时间、地点、人物、活动或情景等故事 要素的交代。有时指向的部分要素会连同点 题出现在文章的首段或首句。课堂教学中,教师要引导学生找出故事里所涉猎到的各种要素。例如,上述续写中,故事中出现的人物有一对恋人、一位女医生和上帝;时间是很久以前;地点是在一个漂亮的小镇上;背景是男恋人病重后在医院住院看病。 指向将故事的基本要素逐一呈现,能让学生对事件形成画面感和代入感,有利于他们对故事的理解和体会。因此,厘清这些要素对于把握故事的发展走向具有 重大的作用。
3.推敲故事进展,推测发展方向
进展是指故事中的情节是如何向前推进的,是决定故事精彩与否的最重要因素,是叙事语篇的核心部分。例如,上述续写中表示进展部分的关键语句及其发展顺序:男恋人生病住院寅女恋人日夜陪在身边寅女恋人 去教堂向上帝祈祷寅男恋人依然昏迷不醒寅上帝提供帮 助寅女恋人变成蝴蝶寅男恋人恢复意识并清醒过来寅男恋人和女医生相爱了寅男恋人带女医生去欣赏日出日落寅蝴 蝶心碎不已。通过分析故事的进展,可以看到情节不断地向前发展演进,学生对于文章的理解也更加深入透彻。
4.感受叙事评议,合理拓展情感
评议是叙事者或者故事中相关的人物对事件的看法、态度和心理,包含对故事的起因、结果以及过程中事件要点的评议。语篇的第四段有一处评议:“What she could do was to watch her beloved through the windows helplessly.”作者用 helplessly 一词表现了蝴蝶对于不能靠近自己为之祈祷守护的男恋人的百般无奈。第五段也有一处评议:“Another spring came and the butterfly was in a hurry to fly back to see the man, only to find that there was a pretty lady standing by him. At that moment she was so shocked that she almost fell down from the sky. She could hardly believe her eyes.”作者用 only to find 这一短语表达了蝴蝶发现男恋人已结新欢后的那种意外和天塌下来一样的绝望。分析故事中的评议,有助于学生感受主人公的内心世界,理解作者的写作意图。
5.合理设置情节,推动故事进展
根据续写第一段首句 “The butterfly could do nothing but rest on the man’s shoulder off and on. ”引导学生进行思考,听到曾经的挚爱和别人欢声笑语、莺燕呢喃,蝴蝶会做何感想?蝴蝶是为了男恋人才变成现在的自己,而男恋人却爱上了别人。蝴蝶本身微小无力,不能讲话,她是独自默默忍受这一切痛苦还是通过抗争来夺回自己的挚爱呢?因此续写第一段,学生可以通过心理描写和动作描写把蝴蝶的内心矛盾淋漓尽致地展现出来,也可以把蝴蝶勇敢夺爱的过程写出来,从而将原文的进展推向高潮。
6.基于叙述视角,合理设置结局
结局是指故事发展到最后是怎样的一个结果。它是对故事核心矛盾的一个交代,标志着叙事的结束,包含人物的下场、目的的实现或失败。在续写尾段中,学生应该根据情节发展创造出合情合理的结局,解决故事中 出现的主要矛盾。而回应是叙事者通过所述故事揭示出一定的道理,是对故事主题的升华。为了使读者或听众对故事有一个完整的了解,叙事者往往在故事的结尾用一两句话照应主题。但是有时候,叙事者会把故事的 意义留给读者自己去体会和思考,因此并不是所有的记叙 文都有回应这一要素,学生可以根据自己的情况来选择写 或不写。续写尾段首句是 God also felt sad and sighed to the butterfly,“Do you regret for what you have done?”上帝看到蝴蝶悲伤欲绝、萎靡不振的状态,也感叹地问她是否后悔为男恋人所做的一切?那么结局到底怎么设定呢?后悔还是不后悔?学生可以进行头脑风暴,发挥想象,只要能自圆其说即可。

I opened the package containing individually wrapped Lego sets for my two boys from Lisa, who was a nurse in New Hampshire. We used to be total strangers, but an incident made us less strange.
Last August, we drove from our home in Washington, DC, to New Hampshire. It was just me, my husband, and our two kids out for a nice, safe, socially distanced week away.
We had hiked about half a mile to a popular spot called Diana’s Baths, where the water falls off a series of flat huge rocks like an M. C.Escher drawing. The baths were full of families, so we made our way to one of the upper levels of rock to keep our distance.
Both where we sat and down below, the water fell into small pools, where kids in swimsuits were splashing around. I watched as some younger parents nervously protected their toddlers away from the rocks edges, feeling grateful that I was out of that stage, for our kids, at six and eight, could navigate their physical space with more confidence. Don’t get me wrong: I was still terrified as I saw my two boys jump between the slippery rocks. But soon I relaxed and we were all having fun, splashing in the pools, my kids laughing as my husband swam under the cold running water. Then, seconds later, every fear I’d ever had rose to the surface.
I turned and saw my son Wyatt sitting down between two rocks in a fast-moving stream. I yelled at him to get out and he yelled back something that I couldn’t hear, and then he disappeared over the edge!
All I remember from the moments after is screaming, over and over! “Somebody help my son! ” I didn’t even know what help he needed, because I couldn’t force myself to look.
My husband was already sprinting down the rocks. I continued to scream for help. However, it did not work. Everyone else looked on from a distance, too afraid or unbothered to help.

A brown-haired women with a mask was the only exception. This woman didn’t hesitate. In fact, by the time I had climbed down the rocks and my husband had pulled Wyatt out of the water, she had already called 911. She told me that she was a nurse. She gave Wyatt a red, white, and blue striped towel to put under his head. I finally had the chance to ask her name. “ Lisa, ” she said, “ and I’m not leaving you. ”
The rescue team finally came and took Wyatt out of the park on a stretcher. An ambulance took us to a hospital. As soon as I knew that Wyatt was going to be OK, my thoughts fell to Lisa. If she had not stepped up, would someone else have done so? Perhaps. But she was the one who went toward the unthinkable instead of turning away.

These days, Marathon des Sables runners carry a GPS tracking device and helicopters monitor their path to make sure no one gets lost, but when Mauro, a police officer, participated for the first time in 1994, there were no such safeguards in place. When you’re running through the largest desert on Earth, one wrong turn can cost you your life. Mauro Prosperi did just that during the Marathon des Sables, a six-day ultramarathon that many regard as the toughest foot race in the world.
The race was almost 156 miles long, taking runners across sand dunes (沙丘) with few natural sources of water. Temperatures in the Sahara could reach as high as 122 degrees Fahrenheit, and each runner carried over 20 pounds of food, water, and emergency supplies on their backs. Most of these runners wouldn’t end up finishing the race, which was about the same length as six regular marathons.
That was how, on the fourth and longest days of the race, the runner Mauro encountered a severe sandstorm that turned him around and sent him wildly off course.
He spent eight hours waiting out the storm, huddled in a sand dune. The next morning, he expected to see rescuers heading his way. Instead, all he saw was desert in all directions. “After running for about for hours, I climbed up a dune and still couldn’t see anything,” he said. “That’s when I knew I had a big problem.”
A search party was organized to find Mauro, but rescuers had no idea he had been so far off course. Twice a helicopter circled over his head, and twice they didn’t see him wildly waving at them from below. He sent up his only flare (照明弹) and even set his backpack on fire hoping to catch their attention, but it was no use.
When Mauro’s water ran out, he began drinking his own urine. He found a marabout shrine, an ancient building that once served as a tomb. He took shelter from the sun’s rays there, drinking the blood of bats.

After being treated in the hospital for weakness, he made a full recovery!
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
With his energy running out, he thought “I am bound to die here”. Feeling exhausted and desperate, Mauro left a goodbye note to his wife on the wall of the tomb and prepared to meet his untimely end. But at the thought of his family in the remote city, he woke up with new resolve and decided to face the challenge himself. So Mauro set off once more and hunted for insects and snakes to eat. By coincidence, Mauro walked into the camp of a nomadic tribe. They took him in and gave him goat’s milk and mint tea, eventually delivering him to safety.
After being treated in the hospital for weakness, he made a full recovery! His survival story is a journey of desperation and almost superhuman endurance! Most people would never set foot in the desert again after such an experience, but not Mauro. Incredibly, he has now run the Marathon des Sables more than six times! Mauro’s story reminds us that perseverance can help us push through just about anything life throws at us! In spite of the bad situation, he found a way to carry on.
