如何做读后续写
一、抓住六要素、巧用修辞展主题
读后续写的文章以记叙文为主。记叙文是以记人叙事为主要内容， 以叙述为主要表达方式来反映丰富多彩的现实生活的一种文体。 选取合适的角度、按照一定的顺序组织素材并进行叙述，其中包 括六个基本要素：时间、地点人物、事情的起因、经过和结果， 即我们通常所说的五个"W"(what,who,when,where,why)和一个 "H"(how)。
除此之外，鲜明的主题和生动的语言，也是一篇优秀的记叙文所不 可或缺的。作为记叙文的一种辅助表达方式，细节描写对加强文 章的表现力发挥着重要的作用。它要求考生善于捕捉细节、刻画 细节，有时还可以使用比喻、拟人、夸张等修辞手法。一篇好的 作文往往因为一两处细节描写而出彩。此外，议论、抒情的表达 方式对记叙文主题的展现也发挥着重要作用。
