对比是写作中的一种常用的手法。它将不同事物或同一事物的不同的两面列举出来,突出矛盾双方最本质特征,使形象更加鲜明。美国著名作家杰克.伦敦善于运用对比的手法来突出人物的性格特征,反映深刻的社会内涵,这在他的短篇小说中表现的尤为明显。在《野性的呼唤》中,杰克.伦敦通过对比的手法,成功地塑造了巴克这个著名的文学形象,为世界文学留下了不朽的佳作。 Contrast is a common practice in writing. It lists different things or two different sides of the same thing, highlighting the most essential features of both sides and making the image more vivid. The well-known American writer Jack London is good at using contrasting techniques to highlight the characters’ personalities and reflect the profound social connotation, which is particularly evident in his short stories. In “The Call of the Wild,” Jack London succeeded in shaping Buck Buck, a famous literary figure by contrasting techniques, leaving an immortal masterpiece for world literature.
