done with; there are a million patient, watchful lives still for a tree, all over the world."(Virginia Woolf, 1993: 1921), this sentence is a conclusion to the last constant flowing of consciousness, and it shows the nature and the sense of life; when she found " it is curious how instinctively one protects the image of oneself from idolatry or any other handling that could make it ridiculous, or too unlike the original to be believed in any longer." (Virginia Woolf, 1993: 1918), she sighed "What an airless, shallow, bald, prominent world it becomes!"(Virginia Woolf, 1993: 1916), this sentence is also a conclusion to what she'd associated, and expresses her disappointment. Thirdly, the author used philosophical sentences to express and promote the theme. In The Mark on the Wall, the author wanted to show that life was mystical and uncertain, and to deny all kinds of outmoded regulations and irrational practices that fetter human life, and to pursue the free, easy and smooth life. For this reason, in the novel, there are some philosophical sentences about it, for example, "Oh, dear me, the mystery of life; the inaccuracy of thought! The ignorance of humanity! To show very little control of our possessions we have-- What an accidental affair this living is after all our civilization"(Virginia Woolf, 1993: 1919); "as a child, one thought the thing itself, the standard thing, the real thing, from which one could not depart save at the risk of nameless damnation"(Virginia Woolf, 1993: 1919); "How peaceful it is down here... if it were not for Whitaker's Almanak-- if it were not for the Table of Precedency!"(Virginia Woolf, 1993: 1920). These sentences made the theme of the novel clear, and made the readers have a good understanding of the countless images in the author's mind.
3.2 The applying of vivid description
In The Mark on the Wall, we know that although the main part was the consciousness action of the character, instead of using abstruse and obscure language, the author used vivid descriptive language. She compared "life to anything, one must liken it to being blown through the Tube at fifty miles an hour-- landing at the other end without a single hairpin in one's hair"(Virginia Woolf, 1993: 1920), and compared life to be" shot out at the feet of God entirely naked!" (Virginia Woolf, 1993: 1918). When she thought of " one could image a very pleasant world"(Virginia Woolf, 1993: 1920), she wished "A world without professors or specialists or house keepers with the open fields, a world which one could slice with one's thought as a fish slices the water with his fin, grazing the stem of water-lilies, ganging suspended over nests of white sea eggs..." (Virginia Woolf, 1993: 1920). The beautiful picture draws the author's ideal state vividly and incisively.
The use of language in images by Woolf accords with the human’s thinking regulation, and consciousness in this stage is mostly about feeling and intuition. But she didn't just describe one exact state. Starting from a mark, she aroused the theme onto a certain obscure definition and then used concrete form to explain it.
3.3 The applying of different tense
There are three tense in English: present, past and future tense. They stand for different meanings of time. Reading The Mark on the Wall, we can find that the applying of tense are used in the article alternately. For example: although there are only five sentences in the second paragraph of this novel, the author used thr
