Stories don’t just happen ; they are created. There are no stories in the everyday course of events; there are only the ingredients for stories. A dozen people may watch a man standing on the fifth-floor ledge or a small child crying. There is no story involved in either case unless one of the dozen chooses to make one up—to surround the isolated event with a beginning and an end, thereby giving what we call a meaning to human action. In other words, there has to be a story-maker--a story-teller--if there is to be a story.
You as the story-maker or writer are in complete control of all of the details of your story. You have control over who the characters are, what they do, and why they do it. You also have control over how the story is to be told and who is going to tell it. You can adopt one of a number of points of view, each of which will give a quite different total story.
Broadly speaking, there are two major approaches a writer can take: (1)you can present the story as if told by someone who is completely outside it, or (2)you can present the story as if told by one of its characters. In either case, the teller’s role is an assumed role.
The author of this passage uses ingredients to mean ______.
选项
A、creative features
B、unimportant details
C、misleading facts
D、raw materials
答案
D
解析
第一段。作者一开篇就点明所谓故事是创作出来的,不是自然发生的。每天发生的事件并没有故事,只是故事的ingredients。后面又举了两个例子说明日常的事件本身并不是故事。只有给所选的事件加上头和尾,加入一定的意义才能成为真正的故事。由此判断,ingredients指的是没有加工过的事件,即素材。选项D是正确的。Raw material素材。In-前缀,表示在……里、非、无意义等。
