...and the novel becomes a form of “reflective characterization.” The narrations give insight to the characters personality by the syntax, imagery, stream of consciousness they employ. Often each narrative also offers a different perspective of another character or affirms the self-characterization of another character. Darl, who narrates most of the story, seems to be the most cerebral character. Darl’s character is particularly interesting because he is indeed mad in some ways but yet he is also the healthiest and most realistic of all Bundrens. He has a strange sense of what’s going on like that of Benjamin Compsons in The Sound and the Fury. He senses Addie’s death even though he and Jewel were getting lumber at the time of her death. He also knew that Dewey Dell was pregnant and that Jewel was an illegitimate son. Dewey Dells narration also supports Darl’s psychic abilities. Like Benjamin, he has the ability to communicate without words. After going into the secret shade with Lafe, Dell realizes that Darl knows what she has done. “I saw Darl and he knew. He said he knew without the worlds like he told me that ma was going to die without words,” (page 26). In a moving scene (page 204) he tries to explain Addie’s death to little Verdamin. Through Vardaman’s narration we can see Darl’s calm, grounded approach to explaining death to Verdamin. His attitude to death is complemented by his sense of self-identity, clearest in the family. His affirmation of Addie’s death makes his...

...进入正题之前，先教你们几个当时我最喜欢我最喜欢用的装酷小技巧，首先就是very这个单词，以后不要再用了，弄哪个那，extraordinary！这个单词高中生会用的不多，不用掌握什么用法，就记住用very的地方都可以替换成这个，绝对比用very拉风！ 然后那，however这个单词不知道你们掌握得好不好，教大家一个玩赖的技巧，一个句子+逗号+however+另一个句子，这里面however是没有实际意义的，就是表转折，但你可以用这招把两个简单句捏在一块啊！短句子成长句了！ 第三个，第三个，就是把很简单的句子，用一点小技巧，改成比较无耻的倒装句！举个例子，我不光唱歌，而且跳舞怎么说？i not onle sing,but also dance，改动一下，not only do i sing,but also dance.倒装句！（虽然简单且无耻，但谁敢说这不是倒装句？）此方法最适合倒装句掌握的不好的同学写出来骗批卷老师：大哥（姐）我会倒装句！ important？这是土人用的！牛人用什么？牛人用significant！由于怎么说？as a result？土人！牛人用什么？牛人用as a consequence. 所以怎么说？so？土人！牛人怎么说？牛人用therefore！（别看therefore这个单词简单，知道用它代替so的同学不多啊！）举个例子，I got up early，therefore i waslate. 类似的替换的单词很多，比如以后set这个单词不要用了，替换成establish。 越来越好怎么说？ 土人也许会用better and better，牛人只用一个单词：enhance 造个句子 we need to enhanceour English，就等于better and better。 好怎么说？土人用good，比他们强一点的人也许会用great 好怎么说？土人用good，比他们强一点的人也许会用great ， wonderful，但牛人用什么？牛人用gorgeous，更牛的人用fabulous，简单的替换一下，水平立刻显现出不一样了。不想要怎么说？土人会用unwanted，牛人用unsatisfactory。改变怎么说？土人用change，牛人用transform。类似的替换技巧有很多，但由于时间太长了多数都忘了，你们自己也可以总结积累一下，不要做土人，做牛人！ 以上的问题解决了，我们来说一下语法，从句。相信很多同学掌握的不是很好，我教大家一些简单的技巧？首先弄清句子的最主要成分是什么？主语加谓语。不管大家写多复杂的句子，一定记住不管写多复杂的句子，没有谓语动词不叫句子！接下来具体地说语法的技巧： * 有一个很简单的从句，叫宾语从句，I think that...... 没有人不会用吧，不过我奉劝大家尽量别这么用，老师批10张卷子看到了8张里面有I think that不烦吗？如果一定要用宾语从句的话换一种说法：I have a thought that......别看只改动了一点，同位语从句！同样I hear that谁都会用吧，不过同样谁都会用所以我们不要用！厉害一些的人会用：It is reported that...... 不过真正的牛人用There is a piece of news that 同样的意思，但明显比I hear that要帅！ 还有一种从句叫定语从句很多人也愿意用，不过我建议大家不要用，因为其实在英语里，定语从句是种挺白痴的句子，没人说的！（你们看美国大片时发现过有人说定语从...
