Writing Tips

叙述故事中,如何设置悬念?

1. 用“反常现象”吸引读者的好奇心

如:In July, frost formed on my desk.(七月,我的书桌上竟凝结了一层冰花。)

2. 环境描写渲染紧张氛围

如:Tree shadows appeared like clawing hands.(树枝的影子显现像挣扎的手。)

3. 插入“误导性线索”制造假象

如:“Just the wind,” I told myself-but the closet opened silently.(我告诉自己:“原来是风……”但衣柜却悄悄地打开了。)

4. 延迟揭晓答案

  • 如:Asthe key turned, a big shout suddenly shocked me.(钥匙转动的时候,一声大叫突然吓了我一跳。)

5. 开放式结局引发猜想

  • 如:The next day, my face disappeared from every photo.(第二天,所有照片上我的脸都消失了。)
