18、4】,2.长句变短句长句固然能表达出复杂而缜密的思想，但如果片面追求复杂句子，反而会显得华而不实，成为表达的累赘。写作中句子的长短应根据表达的需要而定。短句不仅指句子长度较短，也指句子内部结构精炼，简洁是写作的一个重要原则，用词累赘则是写作的大忌。【例1】【原文】His father,who is a salesman,became a millionaire overnight.【优化】His father,a salesman,became a millionaire overnight.【例2】【原文】Perhaps they basically distrusted our capac

32、r,nevertheless,instead,on the other hand表让步：although,though,despite,even so,even if/though,regardless of,in spite of 表层进：first,to begin with,furthermore,besides,moreover,in addition,whats more,last but not least表举例或列举：for example,for instance,as an illustration,such as表总结：in summary,in a word,in bri

35、.As a result,during his junior year of high school,Walter failed both English and Latin.Consequently,he had to repeat these subjects and he was almost unable to graduate on schedule.Finally,on June 6,Walter achieved the first step toward realizing his goal.,2.使用过度性的句子与段落中句与句之间的连贯一样，一篇文章中各段落之间也需要以一定的

36、方式来明确各段之间的逻辑关系，从而使整篇文章形成一个统一连贯的整体。段与段之间除了借助一些篇章层次上的连接性词语，如however,similarly,therefore,on the other hand,on the contrary,in contrast,in conclusion,in short等，还经常需要使用一些表示过渡性的句子来确保其连贯性。【例】Every student will be faced with the same question when he passes the College Entrance Examination:Should he choose

37、a good major or a good university?Answers differ as for different groups of people.Some students give priority to a good major.What they cherish is a specialty they like most.In their mind,3.利用代词指代上文提到过的事物英语中比较习惯运用代词来代替上文提到过的人或事物，从而增强上下文的连贯性，并避免重复，使语言更加简洁明了。【例】Installing monitor cameras is good for

38、residents and neighborhood.First of all,as what the advocates claim,it is an effective approach to improve the security situation.Consequently the guards can easily know what is going on in the districts from the screens of the monitor cameras.,句式变换综合练习,训练一Directions:For this part,you are allowed 30
