1、專題三怎樣寫出凝練的句子 在英語(yǔ)短文寫作中，提倡使用并列句、復(fù)合句，因?yàn)槭褂貌⒘芯?、?fù)合句能增強(qiáng)句子間的邏輯關(guān)系。但萬(wàn)事萬(wàn)物都不能走極端，我們?cè)谑褂貌⒘芯洹?fù)合句的同時(shí)，還要追求語(yǔ)言的簡(jiǎn)潔性。這里的“凝練”并不等同于“簡(jiǎn)單，單調(diào)”，而是合理地使用一些寫作技巧將松散的簡(jiǎn)單句、并列句或過(guò)于復(fù)雜的復(fù)合句簡(jiǎn)化，從而達(dá)到長(zhǎng)短句結(jié)合緊湊，表達(dá)言簡(jiǎn)意賅的效果。為避免句子冗長(zhǎng)，通?？刹捎靡韵罗k法：一、利用非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞、名詞短語(yǔ)、介詞短語(yǔ)、同位語(yǔ)、with的復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)等將從句內(nèi)容濃縮成表意不變的短語(yǔ)。二、使用省略或替代來(lái)簡(jiǎn)化句子內(nèi)容。三、避免不必要的或易引起誤解的迂回表達(dá)、累贅表達(dá)；避免使用空洞、多余的短語(yǔ)。例如：

2、1. Owing to the fact that I had a lot of work to do, it wasnt possible for me to accept their invitation.本句要表達(dá)的意思很簡(jiǎn)單，可是一堆空洞的短語(yǔ)使句子顯得很累贅，改為下面的表述，意思就更簡(jiǎn)潔明了。修改：I was too busy to accept their invitation.2.

3、dealings with others.英語(yǔ)中比較重要的從屬概念可用從句的形式表達(dá)，其他次要的概念常用詞或短語(yǔ)來(lái)表達(dá)，因?yàn)榫渥颖榷陶Z(yǔ)顯得更重要。過(guò)多地使用從句會(huì)把主次概念相混淆，削弱句意的重點(diǎn)。修改：He is an honest man, who always pays his just debts, and observes the golden rules in his dealings with others.3. My hometown is a quiet, peaceful place. It is quiet and peaceful because of the small

4、 number of people living there.有時(shí)為了構(gòu)成平行的句子結(jié)構(gòu)或達(dá)到強(qiáng)調(diào)的目的，會(huì)重復(fù)使用某些詞語(yǔ)。但是，無(wú)目的的重復(fù)會(huì)導(dǎo)致句子累贅。修改：My hometown is a quiet, peaceful place because of the small number of people.即時(shí)鞏固1. 請(qǐng)使用非謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞簡(jiǎn)化下列簡(jiǎn)單句或并列句。He heard the childrens sad story in the war-stricken area and then he took out all he had to build a school for t
