In narrative, narrative often focuses on the description of the general process, and readers can only have a comprehensive and general understanding of things; Description focuses on the concrete description of the image, so that readers can get specific and clear understanding and feelings. If there is only narrative without description, the article will inevitably talk too much about the outline of the story, which is not vivid enough.

Describing the same thing can be not only a metaphor, but also a sketch; You can write not only what you see, but also what you feel; You can write not only static, but also dynamic; Not only write the main body, but also pay attention to foil and so on.

Description (including character description and environment description) is divided into frontal description, side description, scene description and detail description.
1, positive description (direct description) is a direct description of people or the environment.
2, profile description (indirect description), through the description of others or the environment, from the side to contrast the characters and scenery written, so as to receive the effect of "holding the clouds and holding the moon".
3. Scene description is a description of large-scale social activities or scenes of life, fighting, labor, entertainment, etc. attended by many people, reflecting all aspects of social outlook and life and macroscopic natural phenomena. Can be divided into dynamic scenery and static scenery description.
4. Detail description refers to the detailed description of some internal or external small links, including actions, expressions, objects, environment, etc., which has a special role in showing the development of characters and plots.
When describing, we often not only record what we see truthfully, but also mix imaginary factors into it to supplement the description. If the description is imaginative, it will be more vivid, richer and more literary.
