Lead with Your Main Idea
As a general rule, state the main idea of a paragraph in the first sentence—the topic sentence. Don’t keep your readers guessing, or they will stop reading. What is the importance of the story to the audience? Hook your readers promptly, so they want to learn more about your topic and will keep reading.
Don’t bury key words. If you tuck1 your key words or ideas in the middle of a sentence, the reader may overlook them. To emphasize key words, place them at the beginning or at the end of the sentence.
以你的中心思想开头
一般来说,要在第一句话,即主题句中陈述一段的中心思想。不要让读者去猜测,否则他们会停止阅读。这个故事对观众有什么重要性?要迅速吸引你的读者,这样他们就想更多地了解你的主题,并且会继续阅读。
不要把关键词藏起来。如果你把关键词或想法夹在句子中间,读者可能会忽略它们。要强调关键词,请将它们放在句首或句尾。
Vary the Length of Your Sentences
In general, use short sentences to emphasize ideas. Use longer sentences to explain, define, or illustrate ideas. If all the sentences in a paragraph are long, the reader will get bogged2 down. If they’re all really short, the prose will sound panicked or staccato3. Aim for a natural-sounding flow. If a single sentence is over, say, 25 to 30 words, you could affect readers’ comprehension of your meaning. Break up really long sentences into two sentences for clarity. You can also vary sentence types and structures by blending simple, compound, and complex sentences.
使句子的長度多样化
一般来说,可以用短句强调观点,用较长的句子来解释、定义或说明观点。如果一段中的所有句子都很长,读者会陷入困境。如果它们都很短,那么这篇文章听起来会很慌乱或断断续续。要以自然的语流为目标。如果一个句子从头到尾有,比如说25到30个单词,可能会影响读者对你意思的理解。为了清楚地理解,要把很长的句子拆分成两个句子。你还可以通过混合简单句、复合句和复杂句来使句子类型和结构多样化。
Use Active Verbs and Voice
Don’t overwork the passive voice or forms of the verb “to be”. Instead, use dynamic4 verbs in the active voice. Here is an example of passive voice: Three chairs were placed to the left of the podium. You can use active voice: A student placed three chairs to the left of the podium. (Three chairs stood to the left of the podium.)
使用主动动词和语态
不要滥用被动语态或动词“to be”的形式,而应在主动语态中使用动态动词。下面是被动语态的一个例子:三把椅子被放在了讲台的左边。你可以使用主动语态:一个学生把三把椅子放在了讲台的左边。(或,三把椅子在讲台的左边。)
Cut the Clutter5
When revising your work, eliminate unnecessary words. Watch out for repetition of the same concept or details. It’s easy to overlook errors when reviewing your own work. Be on the lookout for common trouble spots, such as subject-verb agreement, noun-pronoun agreement and run-on sentences.
减少混乱
在修改你的作品时,去掉不必要的词语。小心相同概念或细节的重复出现。检查自己的作品时很容易忽略错误。要注意常出问题的地方,如主谓一致、名词和代词的一致及冗长句。 Read When You Revise
When revising, you may hear problems of word choice, or syntax that you can’t see. So listen up!It might seem silly, but don’t skip this step on an important piece of writing.
修改時读一读
修改时,你可能会听出来一些没看出来的词语选择或语法的问题。听好了!这可能看起来很愚蠢,但在写一篇重要的文章时不要跳过这一步。

My Hobby
Just as many middle school students like pop music, I love table tennis. It’s one of the most popular sports in China, and you can see people playing it everywhere in China. It is also our national ball, you know. Table tennis is not only my favorite, but also part of my life. I began to play table tennis at age of① nine.
I like table tennis because it brings joys or② health to my life. After school, I always play table tennis and③ my friends, no matter what the weather is like.
Now I am a member of our school table tennis team. I often take a④ active part in table tennis matches. Sometimes I watch a table tennis match on TV and learn some skills from it. I’m trying my best to play well because I’d like to try table tennis in the future, and I also hope to be one of the most popular table tennis stars one day, such as Deng Yaping, Zhang Jike and so on.
