At the second traffic light turn left.2 策略之二：删除诸如who is”或that is之类的关系代词，变从句为短语。 The novel, which is written in three parts, told a story that took place in the Middle Ages. The t

8、hree-part novel told a story set in the Middle Ages.注：把句中的”three parts”改用形容词来表达，节省了四个不必要的单词”which is written in”。我们经常可以将关系代词如”that”去掉，这只会引起最少的变动。2 策略之三：剔除你不需要的单词Two joint partners will present their views over a long-distance telephone call. 写完这样的句子后，你自己再读一遍，挑出单词”joint”和”telephone”，注意删去不必要的词。2 策略之四：

9、表达否定意义时，尽量避免使用否定词。英语中很多词不用 nos 或者nots也能表达否定含义的词汇，你尽可以采取更为委婉的表达方式。例：Thus college students who do not have sufficient financial backing ,也就是 college students who lacks sufficient financial backing。如果你不想使用太多的否定词，就应该尽量避免使用它们。善于变化许多人将简洁与简短混为一谈，其实二有很大区别。简洁的主旨是用尽量少的词汇讲述整个故事，简短的主旨则是为保持文章篇幅短小，精心撰写或随意删除文中的某些词

10、语或章节。简洁并不意味着总写短句子。事实上，如果句式缺乏变化，文章就会显得支离破碎，缺少联系，让人觉得写作技巧贫乏。句式的变化能令文章协调而流畅，会让读者感觉到作者对主题把握得游刃有余。虽然短句没什么语法错误，但用得太多会使本应合在一起的意思分离开来。记住：不要使用一串串短的、支离破碎的句子。要理清自己的思路，尽量使句子长度有所变化。Before: The Art of Strategy was written by Sun Tzu. It is a fifty-six-hundred-word Chinese classical work. The writer put forth a se

11、t of principles in a very tightly compressed manner.

20、意思）转化为复合结构（两个中心意思）和复杂结构（一个中心意思和一个从属意思）甚至转化为复合-复杂结构（两个或以上的意思）。主句，又称独立句，表达可独立成句的思想内容。从句，又称非独立句，表达不能独立成句，而需与主句一起构成完整的思想内容。达到句式多变的最佳期途径是把关键词或短语换到开头或结尾，从中发现达到你的目的和适合你的品味的最好方法。通过连接短句-省词，增词，改变词序或把不那么重要的思想放到从句中去-你就可以写出更流畅，成熟的句子。例 Lu Hao graduated last summer.
