一、永不过时的动词和主动语态

作为文章的编写者，你主要的任务是把你想说的用文字的方式传达给你的读者。为了达到这个目的，你可以多使用动词和主动语态来为你的文章增加生命力。

1、使用主动语态 Passive Voice:

例;the main idea for my essay was stated as the first sentence in the first paragraph.

Active Voice: I stated the main idea of my essay in the first sentence in the first paragraph.

Passive voice: money for the new recreation building was raised quickly Active voice: the recreation committee quickly raised money for the new building.

2、用一个动词来替代句子中的其中一个重要的名词或形容词

例;Verb to be: The quarterback’s wretched performance was a disgrace to his team

Action verb: The quarterback’s wretched performance humiliated his team

3、在文章中把一个主要的名词换成动词

例;Verb to be: the use of leaf blowers before 8 am is a violation of local noise abatement laws.

Action verb: the use of leaf blowers before 8 am violates local noise abatement laws.

4、如果你不知道该如何更改动词，可以重新整理语句形式

例;Verb to be: Jamie was happy to be part of the all-star soccer team.

Action verb: Being a part of the all-star soccer team thrilled Jamie.

以上的例子说明多运用动词可以使句子更具生动性，也更能吸引读者的眼球。

二、借词的使用

在文章的写作中，少运用一些general words,反而多增加specific images. 什么是general words和specific images那，例如说; car 就是general words,因为车的种类有很多。 而Benz SUV 就是specific images。 在考试的时候，多使用specific words可以帮助把物体解释的更清楚。读者也会获得更多的信息，使他们对你的文章更方便了解。

下面，让我们通过几个例子来证明;

例1;General: Tom got into his car and drove off.

Specific: Tom leaped into his SUV and roared off.

例2;General: The writer wrote a three-page critique of the painting in which he said he did not like it.

Specific: In his three-page critique, the art critic squeezed every drop of meaning- and enjoyment- out of the 3-inch by 3-inch pastel.

General words 对人物，地点，和事物的介绍都无法给读者准备的信息，所以为了更清楚的说明，把这些名词都应该换成specific words.

例3;General: An old dog came up the street.

Specific: An ancient, gray-muzzled golden retriever wandered up Bluebird Canyon Road.

例4;General: My coach illustrates the point about playing fairly.

Specific: My basketball coach, Ms Berry, illustrates the essay- ist’s point about playing fairly.

例5;General: At the end of the day, the workmen walked up the snow-covered road.

Specific: At the end of the day, the tired workmen trudged wearily up the snow-covered road.

三、长短句合理划分

1.合并短句可以让你的文章更连贯，读者阅读的时候思路也会更清晰。让我们通过下面的举例来学习如何合并短句。

例1， The glee club held a fund-raiser, the basketball team also held a fundraiser.

Improved sentences: The glee club and the basketball team held fundraisers (compound subject)

例2， The wide receiver ran down the field. He caught the winning touchdown pass

Improved sentences: Running down the field, the wide receiver caught the winning pass (modifying phrase)

例3， The writer wanted to finish his reading. He did not want to be interrupted with questions

Improved sentences: The writer did not want to be interrupted with questions before he finished his reading. (Complex sentence)

例4， Kareem opened the door, He invited all of us in.

Improved sentences: Kareem opened the door and invited all of us in. (compound verb)

例5， The most valuable player on the basketball team will give the graduation speech. She is the star of this year’s musical.

Improved sentences: The most valuable player on the basketball team, who is also the star of this year’s musical, will give the graduation speech (appositive)
