Is it necessary to be good at using all kinds of rhetoric to write good prose?

In fact, many rhetorical devices only deepen the image, or make the article coherent. When writing a scene, metaphors and other techniques can make the article lively. However, prose is important, and if you want to write a good scene, you must blend the scenes, and emotions cannot be expressed by even the best rhetorical devices.

In ancient Chinese poetry, many verbs are actually very subjective, such as what rain hits plantains, which is used to express their emotions, but we usually say that it is a metaphorical anthropomorphism, which is actually an expression of the emotions of things.

Of course, it is good to be good at using it, because to be good at using it, you must have a strong literary foundation, which means that you have to read a lot of books, so that you can write good prose even without rhetoric.

I haven't studied prose yet, and I haven't learned expository essays, so in fact, I don't know much about these, but I think the most important thing about an article is the feeling it brings to others after reading it, and I think the value of an article is not what it writes, but what it brings to the reader, so as long as it is good at expression and makes people feel the emotional impact, it must be a good article. If you say that good rhetoric is a good essay, it's the same as mathematics, as long as you write an outline in advance, and use a comparison and metaphor every two paragraphs, this elementary school student will be able to ah.

Personally, I believe that prose is the result of emotional accumulation.

Others are secondary. Language skills are accumulated after reading more.

But good prose does require a lot of clever rhetoric!

This is only one aspect of writing good prose, and there are many plain prose that are also very good, such as Mao Dun's "In Praise of the Poplar".The key is to write about your true feelings. Of course, it is also necessary to skillfully use rhetorical devices to increase the style of the text.

Metaphor: used in narrative, illustration, and description, it can make things vivid, vivid, and concrete, and give people a distinct impression; When used in discussions, it can make abstract truths concrete and esoteric truths easy to understand.

Analogy: It can make the reader have a distinct impression of the things expressed, produce strong feelings, and cause resonance.

Borrowing: It can highlight the image and make it specific and vivid.

Exaggeration: It can arouse rich imagination, better highlight the characteristics of things, and arouse strong resonance among readers.

Duality: In form, the syllables are neat and symmetrical, with a strong sense of rhythm, and a beautiful rhythm; The content is concise and concentrated, and the generalization is strong.

Ranking: It can enhance the momentum of the language. It can be used to explain the truth more closely and thoroughly; It is used for lyricism, and it can express feelings to the fullest.

Question: The general function is to provoke the reader to think. When used in the title, it can attract readers, inspire readers to think, and better reflect the center of the article; It is used at the beginning or end of a paragraph, in addition to provoking thinking, it also has a transitional effect; When used in the discussion, it can make the argument in-depth and the context clear.

The author uses three rhetorical devices: one is "synaesthesia". The use of "faint singing" to describe the fragrance of lotus flowers is to connect the sense of hearing and smell; The use of "harmonious melody" and "such as the famous song played by Fan Aling" to describe light and shadow is to connect hearing and vision.

The second is "comparison". The words "Yuanna" and "shy" can make us imagine the charm of the lotus flower; Another example is the sentence "The leaves are close to each other side by side", which not only has the intimate effect of leaves like people, but also has the dynamic effect of crowding next to each other; The third is the extensive use of overlapping words and double-tone overlapping rhyme words, which produces the artistic effect of reciprocation. In the fourth paragraph of the article alone, there are eleven overlapping words such as "zigzag", "tiantian", "tingting", "layer", "yuanna", "grain", "star", "wisp", "slim", "dense", and "vein".

Use figurative rhetorical devices to depict the scenery of autumn separately.

The rhetorical technique of comparison is used, and the artistic conception of the theme is emphasized from the perspectives of vision, hearing, and illusion. It vividly depicts the quietness and sweetness of the night on the sea, giving people a feeling of beauty, full of confusion and fantasy.

Ranking is the arrangement of three or more sentences with similar structure and length, the same tone, related meaning, or the same meaning. It is used to strengthen the tone and atmosphere of the language, so that the sense of rhythm of the article is stronger, the organization is better, and it is more conducive to expressing strong feelings.

Example. Mother's love is like a cup of fragrant tea, which brings us fragrance when we are hungry and thirsty; Mother's love is like a rainbow of light and light, bringing us hope when we are lost; Mother's love is like a fiery red sun, bringing us warmth when it is cold; Mother's love is like a bright street lamp, showing us the way when we are lost.

Common rhetorical methods include metaphor, exaggeration, comparison, personification, duality, questioning, rhetorical questioning, borrowing, rhetorical questioning, association, synaesthesia, pun, top truth, intertextuality, looping, empathy, conjunction, analogy, juxtaposition, intricacies, etc.

1. Rhetorical question.

A rhetorical question is a rhetorical method that uses interrogative sentences to convey a certain message to reinforce the affirmative or negative tone. In other words, it is expressed in the form of an affirmative or negative interrogative sentence to express the meaning of a negative or affirmative. A rhetorical question is a question that contains the definite meaning to be expressed in the question, so the rhetorical question is different from the general question.

The tone of rhetorical questions is stronger and more powerful than that of straightforward sentences, which is conducive to expressing a clear attitude of love and hatred, and is a commonly used style of speech in political discourse. When using it - it must be relevant to the situation, distinguish between the occasion and the object.
