PET寫作要寫長，你才能拿到基本合格的分數(shù)；但是句子還要寫短，你才能拿到更高的分數(shù)。要寫出好的英文句子，要避免重復使用意義相近或相同的單詞或短語，否則句子會看起來冗長、贅余，能夠令自己的意思明確表達出來即可，也就是簡潔。下面看幾個例句，加深對其理解：
1. 原句：My grandfather has said over and over again that he had to work on his parent’s farm. 簡化：My grandfather has said repeatedly that he had to work on his parent’s farm.
分析：使用“repeatedly”代替了“over and over again”,用一個更簡單的單詞來替換一個長一點的詞組。
2. 原句：Dairy cows were raised on the farm, which was located 100 kilometers from the nearest university and was in an area that was remote. 簡化：The dairy farm was located in a remote area, 100 kilometers to the nearest university.
分析：Dairy cows和farm可以使用簡短的dairy farm替換，而且dairy farm的含義就包含了Dairy cows were raised on the farm。把which was located 100 kilometers to the nearest university這個從句改成一個獨立的使用逗號連接的同位語，既醒目又簡潔。
3. 原句：Every nook and cranny of our life has indeed been teeming with innovations of outstanding merit. 簡化：Stunning innovations have penetrated every aspect of our life.
分析：堆砌難詞以及短語。這樣的句子雖然看起來很華麗，但是實際內(nèi)容往往不夠豐富。同時根據(jù)句意看出此句使用被動語態(tài)不太必要，用簡單的主動語態(tài)即可。
4. 原句：However, breakthroughs and accomplishments are nonetheless exploited for illegal and selfish purposes, say, nuclear deterrence, climate change and terrorism. 簡化：However, technology can be used for evil, say, nuclear disasters and terrorism.
分析：breakthroughs and accomplishments可以概括成technology，illegal and selfish purposes可以概括成evil，針對同一類型的詞匯可以使用一個概括性的單詞去替換，避免內(nèi)容冗長又過于類似。
5. 原句：He has no sense of principle, whether he is in public or in private. 簡化：He has no principles, public or private.
分析：提到“……感”或“……意識”，很多人會下意識使用sense of...，其實可以直接報答為no principles。后半句中whether...的結(jié)構(gòu)也可以直接表述成public or private。 注：尊重原創(chuàng)文章,轉(zhuǎn)載請注明出處和鏈接 http://elsolbar.com/news-id-24154.html 違者必究！部分文章來源于網(wǎng)絡由培訓無憂網(wǎng)編輯部人員整理發(fā)布,內(nèi)容真實性請自行核實或聯(lián)系我們，了解更多相關資訊請關注劍橋英語頻道查看更多，了解相關專業(yè)課程信息您可在線咨詢也可免費申請試課。關注官方微信了解更多：150 3333 6050
