It starts with ...... I finally finished this damn homework

1. What is a flashback:

Flashback is to write what happened later in the front, and then narrate it in order, that is, the time of the narrative is the opposite of the actual thing. Such as Zhu Ziqing's "Back".

Of course, flashbacks are not a reversal of the entire event, but a method of narrative that is still sequential except for a certain part of the story.

There are two types of flashbacks: one is to advance the ending, such as "Wuthering Heights"; The other is to advance the gripping part in the middle, such as "For the Sixty-One Class Brothers".

If the standard is defined, it should be like this: flashback is to put the ending of an event or the most important and prominent segment to the front of the article according to the needs of expression, and then narrate the events from the beginning in the order in which they develop.

Second, the three situations of using flashbacks, the role of flashbacks:

1.First, in order to express the needs of the central idea of the article, the part that can best express the central idea is brought to the front and highlighted.

The use of flashbacks can enhance the vividness of the article, make the article suspenseful, and more engaging, and at the same time avoid the flat and monotonous structure of the narrative.

For example, in the tenth lesson of the second semester of the sixth grade Chinese of the People's Education Edition, "Memories of Sixteen Years Ago", the author Li Xinghua first wrote about his father Li Dazhao's death in the first natural paragraph, and then wrote about the process of his father's death.

2.The second is to make the structure of the article rich in changes and avoid flat and direct description.

3.Third, it is for the needs of the performance effect, so that the article is tortuous, suspenseful, and fascinating.

This method is also often used in film creation. Begin with the results of the development of the story, and then begin to retell the story of the past. Occurrence and development.

In the Soviet film "Here the Dawn Is Quiet", the elderly captain leads several young people to sweep the graves, and then recounts the stories of the young female soldiers who died under the tombstones in the Great Patriotic War. At the end of the film, we return to the tombstone. The films "Hinterer's List", "Dream of the Covered Bridge", "Titanic" and so on all used this method.

3. Precautions for using flashbacks:

1.Flashbacks are not a way to recount the entire event upside down, but to tell the story in addition to a certain part in advance.

2.When flashbacking, make it clear where you started. There should be a clear boundary between flashback and sequential narration, and there should be a necessary text transition to achieve a natural connection.

The use of flashbacks must have transitional sentences or transitional paragraphs. When the part of the flashback is finished, it should be explained clearly when it comes back to the narrative. Otherwise, it will make the article unclear and unclear, and affect the expression of the content.

3.The use of flashbacks should be based on the needs of content and form; Or for the need to express the theme, or for the need for structural changes, or to create suspense, fascinating, and play a special expression effect. Don't flashback for flashbacks, turning aimlessly upside down, repeating over and over again, making the article's eyebrows blurred.
