1 Image
It is a figure of speech referring to using some concrete form or pictures to present people's appreciation and experience in intellect and emotion.In the novel the writer uses the kind of form as follows:
Tears and fog
When Tess was seduced in the night,the writer says like this:"D'Urbervilles stopped and heard a gentle regular breathing He knelt and bent lower till her breath warmed his face,and in a moment his cheek was in contact with hers.She was sleeping soundly and upon her eyelashes there lingered tears."(Thomas Hardy,page 119)Readers can easily have a picture in mind,and in fact realize Tess will be seduced.Her sound sleep and tears upon her eyelashes foreshadow that Tess will often have tears in her eyes in the following days.At the end of this chapter,the writer shows the intension of this image,that is,"As Tess's own people down in those retreats are never tired of saying among each other in their fatalistic way,it was to be there lay the pity o it.An immeasurable social chasm was to divide our heroine's personality thereafter from that previous self of hers who stepped from her mother's door to try her fortune at Trantridge poultryfarm(Thomas Hardy,page 119)."
There are at least three descriptions about tears later in the novel,which make readers consciously or unconsciously think the general aspect of tears when Tess tears in the first time.At the night of their marriage when Tess confesses her incident to Angel,Angel feels very bitter.His facial expression is described as:"She hardly observed that a tear descended slowly upon his cheek,a tear so large that it magnified the pores of the skin ove which it rolled,like the object lens of a microscope(Thomas Hardy,page 300)."The occasional factors appear many times,which forms an inevitable thing and likes a thin thread running through the whole book making people associate it with disaster and troubles.
The description of tears appears again in the farm where Tess falls in love with Angel when they have a walk in the morning,such as:"Minute diamonds of moisture from the mist hung,too,upon Tess's eyelashes,and drops upon her hair,like second pearls."(Thomas Hardy,page 188)Later when Tess and Angel tell their love to each other,the environment around them makes the readers think the tears again,that is:Upon this river-brink they lingered till the fog began to close round them—which was very early in the evening at this time of the year—setting on the lashes of her eyes,where it rested like crystals,and on his brows and hair.(Thomas Hardy,page 259)The writer uses image–fog in fact tells readers the bad luck following Tess from beginning to the end even if the writer doesn't tell us directly.It is the mystery of the techniques of writing.
Tears always have ties with bad things,which is usually the results of bitter things.The writer uses tears properly,in fact foretelling us Tess's bad life in her whole life.The writer also uses the fog ingeniously.On a foggy day,it is hard to see everything clearly,so the fog gives the impression of obsceneness.While the tears are concrete,the writer mainly use the image–tears and fog indirectly to show the bad luck of Tess making readers feel both obscure and clear,and the mystery is presented naturally.
2 Omens of Bad Luck
It refers to people's presage by intuition.Because something or some phenomenon is clear,the writer just according to idealism to deduce the fate in the future.It manifests the writer's superstition and unknown world outlook.Why the writer has a faith of superstition and unknown world outlook?In fact the writer's superstition and unknown world outlook are influenced by the histories of his family.Hardy's father died of the disease of rheumatism in his old days.At that time he usually went to the cottage to visit him.It was in the cottage that some grievous things always happened.When Mary,Hardy's grandmother was born,her father died there.When Mary was only six years old her mother also died there.So little Mary was sent to the home o Henry,her maternal uncle,and was brought up.Unfortunately,in1783 when Mary was only eleven yeas old,Henry's wife and his two sons died in the same year.The hit to Hardy made him believe superstition.He thought his family was cursed and had a bad fate from that time.So in his novel the superstition can be found in many places,that is,the writer makes purposely Tess's ancestor make mistakes and Tess's fate was so bad.The write uses the form:
Death of the horse and the blood splashed by the horse
In chapter four as young Abraham begins to wake up,he looks about him and sees"stage shapes assumed by the various dark object against the sky;of this tree that looked like a raging tiger springing from a lair;of that which resembled a giant's head."These threatening images are(as often in this novel omens of the disaster that is soon to follow:in this case,the death of the horse.The entire incident is an omen of what wil result from attempting to"claim kin."There are several similarities between the death of the horse and later events:Tess tries to help the dying animal and is splashed with blood as a result,jus as at the end of the novel she will be splashed with Alec's blood both Alec and the horse die from wounds in the breast.By"killing"the a horse Tess destroys the family's livelihood;by killing Alec she does the same thing again but she also loses he life.Hardy remarks that the hole in the horse's chest looked barely large enough to let his life pour out,and this is an ironic foreshadowing of the insignificance of Tess's tragedy in comparison with the huge scale on which nature works.When writing this part,the writer by describing the death of the horse and the blood splashed by the horse indirectly tells us the bad luck o Tess in her whole life.
3 Fairy tale(Bible)
Bible has a great impact on European and American literature.As a child,Hardy usually went to church with his family He is a sincere believer of Christianity.In his novel,he quotes a lot of stories from Bible.By using the stories successfully,he makes his novel much more charming and mysterious.Some examples are illustrated as follows:
3.1 Waiters on Providence
In chapter five when the writer describes Tess's mother,he writes as follows:Her mother's intelligence was that of a happy child:Joan Durbeyfield was simply an additional one,and tha not the eldest,to her own l Dollop and the widow long family o waiters on Providence(Thomas Hardy,page 76).Here"waiters on Providence"comes from Bible"wait on the Lord and wait on the God."which means God decides everything.In other words one can't change the bad luck.Reading here,readers can get some information that the writer thinks in the world there is God and He decides everything.God itself has something mysterious.No one has seen him,so the mystery arises again.
3.2 The second waking of Eve
In chapter twenty-seven,when Tess and Angel are in love the writer describes like this:"At first she would not look straigh up at home,but her eyes soon lifted,and his plumbed the deepness of the ever-varying pupils,with their radiating fibrils of blue and black,and gray,and violet,while she regarded him as Eve a her second waking might have regarded Adam(Chapter 27 page232).Here the so called"her second waking"that is when Eve ea the fruit of wisdom,her eyes become lighter and feel shy when she see Edam again.This part describes the sweet love of Tess At the same time,the writer tells the Tess's unhappiness when she is seduced.By using similarities,Eve eats the fruit of wisdom,which is forbidden to be eaten by human beings,and God should punish her.Tess is seduced so she also should be punished,so she experiences many bad things and she lives a miserable life in her whole life.
4 Environmental Descriptions
It refers to some description about the places especially the place where some bad things happen.The writer usually first describes the environment around them.The terrible environment foreshadows the bad things.
4.1 The dairy shed
In chapter twenty the peculiar kind of"luminous gloom"in which Tess and Angel walk to the dairy shed each morning makes Angel's mind turn to the hour of the Resurrection;Hardy comments that"he little thought that the Magdalene might be at his side."At these moments,Tess looks"ghostly,as if she were a soul at large."She was no longer the milkmaid,but a visionary essence of woman—a whole sex condensed into one typical form(Thomas Hardy,chapter twenty)."In sentences and references like these,the plot as such is not really advanced,but in them by describing the environment around them a sense of Tess's stature of her moral and spiritual magnitude is revealed.
4.2 Place of Angel's sleepwalking
On the night of marriage,under the influence of any strongly-disturbing force,Angel has a bad dream and the fact that he often has troubled sleep during which he seems to act out whatever is disturbing him is a force of the sleepwalking.Look the description in the novel:"Here they were within a plantation which formed the Abbey grounds,and taking a new hold of her he went onward a few steps till they reached the ruined choir of the Abbey-church.Against the north wall was the empty stone coffin of an abbot,in which every tourist with a turn for grim humor was accustomed to stretch himself.In this Clare carefully laid Tess.Having killed her lips a second time he breathed deeply,as if a greatly desired end were attained(Chapter37 page 320)."The description of the environment around them makes the atmosphere more terrible and makes readers present on the spot.So the mysterious and terrible atmosphere is showed naturally.
Above all,in the whole novel the writer uses the mystical descriptive techniques successfully which makes readers go back to the 19th century of England,or even much more ancient times.Although the writer doesn't tell directly what bad things will happen,readers can feel something strange haunting around them and can easily find the answer from the later description in the novel.It is the effect of the mystical descriptive techniques that the writer uses.The successful uses of the four mystical descriptive techniques in the novel offers a much more better understanding of the society of England in Victorian Period.Because the writer can't analyze the society of England at that time rightly,the techniques of the writing that the writer uses also present the writer's world outlook.He thinks the"inner will"dominates the whole world,which is the limitation of the writer at that time.Although the writer exposes the weak points during the industrial civilization,he still doesn't extricate himself from the society he lives.All in all,the successful uses of the mystical descriptive techniques in the novel provide a good and useful technique of writing.

中秋节是中国人的传统节日之一,每年农历8月15日庆祝。
传说月亮在这一天最大最圆。
Reconstruction work underway in many provinces hit hard by the nation#39;s worst winter in 50 years is generating additional business in a range of industries, with stock and metals prices rising along with increased demand.
At the top of the list are power equipment makers. Rebuilding the damaged power grid in snow-ravaged regions is increasing needs for equipment used for power transmission.
Shao Yukai, an industry analyst at Industrial Securities in Shanghai, says “a sharp increase in demand for power equipment will generate more than expected profits for listed companies.”
Domestic building suppliers are also increasing output of cement and steel to provide needed materials.
Stocks for listed companies show that demand and production is high. Anhui Conch Cement Co rose an aggregate 8.7 percent to 67.43 yuan ($9.48) per share, while Hunan Huayin Electric Power Co climbed a total of 7.6 percent over a month ago to 8.2 yuan.
Analysts say the unusually heavy snowstorms revealed that the country#39;s infrastructure is unable to withstand extremely severe weather conditions, a realization that has prompted the central and local governments to improve designs and construction.
Luo Guo, an analyst on the building materials industry at Orient Securities in Shanghai, notes that “reconstruction of damaged infrastructure poses an urgent need for many building materials” but the demand is temporary.
“When reconstruction work winds up, the demand for building materials will show a gradual decline that may bring the production and profit of those companies to their usual levels,” Luo says.
“The reconstruction work will benefit relevant industries in the short term,” says Liu Jiangang, an analyst at Industrial Securities in Shanghai. “The growth opportunities brought to some industries is just a temporary factor to consider,”
The snow the whole village the roof is white, as if under a tree in the tree are covered with silver flowers, in real seems to the house wearing a lovely hat on the ground, such as the winter girl to spread a vast expanse of silver carpet. Give people a very pleasant feeling.
The best play is in the large snowflakes are dancing in the snow, like fairies descend. In the snow snowman, snowball fights. Have a great time.
每当看到八月十五的月亮,我就会想起张若虚“春江潮水连海平,海上明月共潮生”的月光如水,我也会想起李白“举杯邀明月,对影成三人”的月光如影,但是最让我忘不了的是“举头望明月,低头思故乡”的月光如水。每当想起这几句诗,我就会想起远在丹东的姥爷。
每到中秋的晚上,我就会把桌子搬到月光能照见的地方,和全家人吃起月饼来,不,不能说是全家人,因为姥爷还在千里之外的丹东。看到圆圆的月饼,就仿佛看到了姥爷那张慈祥、欢喜的脸。直到现在我还能想起我在丹东过中秋的场景:我正吃着月饼,姥爷就给我讲起“嫦娥奔月”、“白兔捣药”这些流传了千百年都不过时的神话故事。没有姥爷的中秋是凄凉的,没有姥爷的中秋是孤独的,没有姥爷的中秋是寂寞的。姥爷啊,我何时才能再看到你呢?
我就如同茫茫宇宙中的一颗星星,没有姥爷的陪伴,我多想再看一眼我的姥爷呀,那恐怕也只能到放假了吧。没到过中秋,我就会想起远在丹东的姥爷。
刚回到家,我就一直望着窗外,今天似乎少做了什么事情,到底是什么呢?不想了,反正也想不出。我打开抄写本子,准备最后检查一遍,等等,嫦娥在哪里呢?月球啊,对了!今天是中秋节啊!我提起剩余的月饼给爸爸妈妈看, 他们也全都记起来了。
八月十五月亮圆,往年的今晚,月亮就如一个精美的白玉盘,闪闪发光,美轮美奂。我们坐在阳台的椅子上,吃着月饼,望着月亮。我好像看到了嫦娥悲伤地身影;又好像看到了吴刚不知疲倦地砍着那颗桂花树。
我抬头看着月亮,月亮非常圆,非常亮,金黄金黄的。连旁边的云也微微变黄了。
温柔的月亮犹如一块透明的白纱,笼罩着大地。你看那静静的水,在月光下一闪一闪,就像无数的小星星洒在水面上。月亮一个小小的水晶球,沉在水里,离我们很远似的。等我在抬头看月亮时,月亮又变成了银色的了,像一个白玉盘。
我看着看着,就想:月亮是怎样形成的?是不是又一段时间陨石非常热,都在宇宙中互相碰撞,在一起熔炼,慢慢变大,形成了月亮?在又一次“星际大战”撞在了月亮上,形成了月亮上的“洞”?
这时,妈妈从厨房走出来,说:“来,帮妈妈包饺子吧!”然后,我把手洗了,开始帮妈妈包饺子了,不一会,我们就包了很多的饺子,接下来我们开始煮饺子,大约过了二十多分钟,妈妈端来一盘热乎乎的饺子,一个、二个、三个………,好多个饺子被送到我的嘴巴里,真香呀!今天的饺子格外的好吃!
到了中午,妈妈说写一会儿作业,我说好的,过了一会,我的好朋友来找我玩,于是我们一起到王一可家,到了下午,我到外婆家吃了火锅,吃完火锅我和妈妈一起去买了月饼和水果。
最热闹的就是晚上了,我们坐在院子里面等着看月亮,旁边的桌子上放着月饼和几盘水果,外婆喜欢吃五仁馅的,妈妈喜欢吃八宝馅的,我喜欢吃草莓馅的,吃完月饼我们开始吃水果,有苹果、梨、香蕉………。,这时,我抬头望月亮,左等右等,都不见月亮出来,妈妈说:“今天是阴天,我们是无法赏到月亮了,妈妈给你讲一个关于中秋节传说的故事吧”
相传后羿向王母求得不死药后,他暂时把不死药交个嫦娥,三天后,后羿率众外出狩猎,他的手下蓬蒙心怀鬼胎,假装生病,他逼嫦娥交出不死药,嫦娥一口吞下不死药,身子立时飘离地面,冲出窗外,向天上飞去。由于嫦娥牵挂自己的丈夫,便飞落到离人间最近的月亮上,成了仙。百姓们闻知嫦娥奔月成仙的消息后,纷纷在月亮下摆设香案,向善良的嫦娥祈求吉祥平安。从此,中秋节拜月的风俗在民间传开,流传至今。
听到这里,我仿佛看到了后羿在遥望月宫上的嫦娥,嫦娥在向人间呼唤后羿,两人天各一方,难以团聚。
在这个温馨的时刻,我们一大家人仰望着空中的明月,不禁开始了一场别开生面的吟诗会。
“举头望明月,低头思故乡!”小表弟一马当先,声情并茂地朗诵到。
我也不甘示弱:“小时不识月,呼作白玉盘,又疑瑶台镜,飞在青云端。”我抬头望望月亮,她也好像因为我把她比作白玉盘而冲我笑呢!
哥哥也大声吟诵道:“开帘见新月,即便下阶拜,细雨人不闻,北风吹裙带。”
爸爸说:“太简单了,请听我的:春花秋月何时了,往事知多少,小楼昨夜又东风,故国不堪回首明月中。”
“我来,我来!姐姐说道:满月飞明镜,归心似大刀!”
“还有我呢!”妈妈说着便吟起了苏轼的“明月几时有,把酒问青天。不知天上宫阙,今夕是何年?”
“让我也来一句!”奶奶颤颤巍巍地站起来说:“海上生明月,天涯共此时!”
原来关于月亮的诗句是这般的数不胜数,我的情思仿佛回到了八百年前苏轼的时代,又仿佛回到了一千三百年前大诗人李白的时代,每一首诗句都是诗人的真情流露,都是岁月的千古绝唱,都是经典的精神瑰宝。
嫦娥在后羿射过日以后,和他结为了夫妻。一天,后羿向王母娘娘求得了一包不死药。据说服下此药就可以上天成仙。
后羿射日的功夫令许多人大加赞赏,于是他有了许多徒弟,而心术不正的.蓬蒙也混了进去。
一天,趁后羿不在,蓬蒙悄悄进入嫦娥的家里,逼嫦娥交出仙丹。嫦娥一气之下吞下了仙丹……
嫦娥升了天,当了仙女。后羿回到家中,不见嫦娥,又听到侍女哭诉了白天发生的事,又惊又气,想抓住罪人,可蓬蒙早跑了。
于是后羿又去追嫦娥住着的月亮,可他怎么也追不上。没办法,为了挂念嫦娥,就在嫦娥喜欢的花园里摆上香案,放上她爱吃的蜜食水果,怀念着有月宫中的嫦娥。众人听说了嫦娥奔月成仙的故事,也纷纷摆上香案,在月光下向善良美丽的嫦娥祈求平安。从此,中秋节赏月拜月的习俗就流传开了。
