Language Style Language features of AustenIn Jane Austen39。 no, it was not he that gave a stranger twenty dollars. It is a pity, too。s description of human nature was very lifelike. The ups and downs plot arrangements, the humorous diction and sophisticated ideas achieved a very high artistic effect, thus fully demonstrated the writing talent of Austen. Language features of Mark TwainBased on the humor of western people, refining the civil oral language, Mark Twain created realist language with a strong flavor of life. The language in his short stories was plain, subtle, witty, and exaggerated, which formed his unique, humorous and ironic style. In The Man that Corrupted Hadleyburg, Mark Twain39。s discipline, particularly impatient with his youngest daughter, resulted in his youngest daughter’s elope, which was a punishment to him. Wikham’s lies led to the exposure of his nature. Lady Catherine de Bough’s interferes in the marriage of Elizabeth and Darcy rekindled Darcy’s hope and helped to bring about their final marriage. Austin’s satirical art can also be seen throughout the theme of the novel. She let the reality ridicule people39。 we might as well say that she was frustrated. At this time her daughterinlaw came to visit her, making her sadness changing to happiness. In her own words, “however, your ing just at this time is the greatest of forts, and I am very glad to hear that you tell us of long sleeves.” (Wang Chuang﹠Wang Liping，1998)Just imagine, at first lamenting on her daughter’s marriage ,then switching to long fashionable sleeves and she also got forted from it ! This kind of butt resulting from this disharmony can be found everywhere in Pride and Prejudice.Besides Mrs. Bennett, Mr. Collins was another good example described by Austen. He was confused, contradictory and full of illusion. The author’s sarcasm to him is merciless. On the one hand, he was all submission and obsequious to his patroness Lady Catherine. Let us look at the scene of playing cards at Rossings: “Mr. Collins was employed in agreeing to everything her ladyship (Lady Catherine) said, thanking her for every fish he won, and apologizing if he thought he won too many.” (Wang Chuang﹠Wang Liping，1998)On the other hand, He is blindly selfconfident and puts on airs. Faced with an uncle, he is condescending. As the benefactor of charity declares himself ready to marry a daughter of Bennett family to make up for the loss of them because of his inheriting the estate and property. First of all, he determines to eldest sister Jane as the goal. Mrs. Bennett hinted to him that Jane was likely to be very soon engaged. Then,” Mr. Collins had only changed from Jane to Elizabeth, and it was soon done done while Mrs. Bennett was stirring the fire.” (Wang Chuang﹠Wang Liping，1998). Before Elizabeth opens his mouth to speak, Mr. Collins declares the reasons why he decides to get married in one breath —one of which was to please his lady Catherine,“ it is the particular advice and remendation of the very noble lady whom I have the honor of calling patroness.” (Wang Chuang﹠Wang Liping，1998)—till he guarantees “I shall be uniformly silent, and you may assure yourself that no ungenerous reproach shall ever pass my lips when we are married!” (Wang Chuang﹠Wang Liping，1998)Although Elizabeth refuses him with the clearest words, Mr. Collins firmly believes: “because I know it to be the established custom of your sex to reject a man on the first application, and perhaps you have even now said as much to encourage my suit as would be consistent with the true delicacy of the female character.” (Wang Chuang﹠Wang Liping，1998)While Mrs. Bennett was even more inconceivable which daughter dared to disobey her and refuse his proposal. So these two perverse fools congratulated to each other. Isn’t this a perfect irony? Character creation with satire in The Man that Corrupted HadleyburgIn this novel, we do not always know actually what kind of person the stranger is and we have no idea of what the 19 prominent residents, including Mr. Richards and his wife look like, but the author depicts distinctive and rounded characters one by one through vivid and detailed description of the action and the penetrating psychological portraits. Mrs. Richards receives a sack and a paper attached to it. Out of curiosity, “she went straight to the sack and brought away the paper.” After reading the paper, “Mrs. Richards flew to it all trembling and locked it, then pulled down the windowshades and stood frightened, worried.” Later, she thought of “But it is gambler money! The wages of sin: we could not take it。(Xian Yijing，2001) But the residents of Hadleyburg see their virtues tested when a sack of gold worth﹩40,000 arrives. The sack of gold with a note attaching on it is delivered by a stranger. The notes say that it is repaying for a loan of 20 dollars from the town. And the gold will be the Hadleyburg citizen who once helped a poor stranger passing through a town. Whoever can write down the exact words uttered to that poor stranger wins the sack of gold. The temptation proves too great for most Hadleyburgers. With the temptation of the sack of gold, none of the “honest upright residents, especially the nineteen prominent residents, can resist the temptation. In order to strive to be the winner of the bag, they are ignorant of their conscience to deceive and fabricate evidences. A series of farces are pu
