　　Let me tell you the rest of the story, though.(P14) 如何增加亮點(Ⅰ)

　　要想把一篇文章寫好、寫完美，并列句、復合句的使用固然給文章潤色不少，但是高效詞匯和復雜句型的使用更能給文章增加亮點。具體說來，可以嘗試以下方法： 1. 交叉使用長句與短句

　　根據實際情況在文章中交替使用長句與短句，使文章顯得錯落有致，這樣不僅使文章在形式上增加美感，而且使文章讀起來鏗鏘有力。 [例]中午我們在太陽下吃野餐。休息一會兒后，我們唱歌的唱歌，跳舞的跳舞，還有的講故事、下棋，大家玩得很開心。 [一般句]At noon we had a picnic lunch in the sunshine. Then we had a short rest. Then we began to play happily. We sang and danced. Some told stories. Some played chess. [優秀句]At noon we had a picnic lunch in the sunshine. After a short rest, we had great fun singing and dancing, telling stories and playing chess.

　　2. 避免同一詞語的重復使用

　　為了使文章更生動、更富表現力，同學們在寫作時應盡量避免重復使用同一詞語來表示同一意思，如有的同學一看到“喜歡”二字，就會立刻想起like，事實上，英語中表示類似意思的詞和短語很多，如love, enjoy, prefer, appreciate, be fond of, care for等。 [例]我喜歡讀書，而我的弟弟喜歡看電視。 [一般句]I like reading while my brother likes watching television. [優秀句]I like reading while my brother enjoys watching television. 3. 適當使用短語代替單詞 [例]他已決定長大了當老師。 [一般句]He has decided_to be a teacher when he grows up. [優秀句]He has made_up_his_mind_to be a teacher when he grows up.

　　4. 恰當套用某些固定表達 [例]他太累了，不能再往前走了。 [一般句]He was very tired. He couldn't walk any farther. [優秀句]He was too tired to walk any farther.

　　5. 靈活改變句子開頭 在通常情況下，英語句子的排列方式為“主語＋謂語＋賓語”，即主語位于句子開頭。但若根據情況適當改變句子的開頭方式，比如使用倒裝語序或以狀語開頭等，就會增強文章的表現力。

　　[例]只有這樣你才能把它做好。 [一般句]You can do it well only in this way. [優秀句]Only in this way can you do it well.

　　6. 合理使用省略句 合理地使用省略句，不僅可以使文章精練、簡潔，而且會使文章更具文采和可讀性。 [例]他可能很忙，要是這樣，我以后再來拜訪。要是不忙，我現在可以見他嗎？ [一般句]He may be busy. If he's busy, I'll call later. If he is not busy, can I see him now? [優秀句]He may be busy. If so, I'll call later. If not, can I see him now?
