PETS三级考试写作技巧之简化句子

来源:华拓网

  第一种方法是用一个单词代替一组意义相同的单词,比如:

  ①用forget(忘记)代替do not remember(没有记住)

  ②用ignore(忽视)代替do not pay attention to(不注意)

  ③用now(现在)代替at this point in time(此时此刻)

  ④用because(由于)代替due to the fact that(鉴于下列事实)

  第二种方法是省略同义词或近义词,比如在下面例句中,形容词important(重要的)和significant(有重要意义的),就是两个同义词(也可以说是近义词),我们可以省略important,只保留significant。

  ①The government project is important and significant.(这项政府计划是重要的,有重要意义。)

  ②The government project is significant.(这项政府计划有重要意义。)

  第三种方法是在不改变句子含义的前提下,省略所有可以省略的'单词,比如在下面例句中,the cover of the book (书的封面)可以省略成the book cover,is red in color(是红色的)可以省略成is red。

  ①The cover of the book is red in color.(书的封面是红色的)

  ②The book cover is red.(书的封面是红色的)

  最后我们把这三种方法结合起来,将一个冗长、绕嘴的句子,改写成一个简短、易懂的句子。

  ①University malls must be accessible and free from congestion in order that students, faculty and employees may have unobstructed passage through those areas of the campus.(校内道路必须是便于通行的,不拥堵的,以便让学生、教师和职员能够无阻碍地通过,到达校园的各处。)

  ②University malls must be free enough from congestion to allow people to walk through easily.(校内道路不应当拥堵,以便人们顺利通行。)
