(2025·济南二模) Have you ever read a story that you couldn't put down?
A good story needs three things: characters, a setting, and a plot. The characters are the people or animals that do things in your story.
C
The plot is the action that moves your story forward.
Characters do things to move the plot forward. Where the story is set needs to make sense for both the characters and the plot. The plot involves both the characters and the setting.
D
Let's imagine your character is an artist who loved to paint. She lived and worked in her studio in a city in the present day. But she realized her paints were missing and she searched for them. Maybe her paints were in her studio the whole time, but that would end the story too quickly with no "conflict(冲突)".
Instead, let's say someone stole her paints. She had to find out who that person was.
B
Now we have conflict—that's when two or more characters want or need different things. Why did the artist's sister steal her paints? Was this the first time? Did the two sisters always fight? Through this plot, we can tell many different kinds of stories.
F
First, writing a story means making a promise to the reader that it will make sense. Do not break that promise. It wouldn't make sense if you suddenly introduced magic or robots because we already said that the story takes place in the present day.
E
Every story has some truth in it, even if it isn't actually true. In our example above, even though the two sisters aren't real, the idea that sisters sometimes fight is very true.
And if your story is good enough, you can get it published! It is an amazing feeling to see your story in print.
| A. If you keep writing, you'll finally make it. |
| B. It turned out the person was the artist's sister. |
| C. The setting is where and when your story takes place. |
| D. These three things work together to make a good story. |
| E. Second, just because your story is made up doesn't mean it's a lie. |
| F. There are two important things to remember about writing stories. |
