英终极指南：简洁才是王道！hat is good writing?什么样的章是章？It depends on what country you"re from. e all know what"s considered “good writing” in our own country. e grow up immersed in the cadences and sentence structure of the language we were born into, so we think, “hat"s probably what every country considers good writing; they just use different words.” If only! I once asked a student from airo, “hat kind of language is rabic?” She said, “It"s all adjectives.”这取决于你来自何处。我们都知道在自己的国家章是什么样的。我们从小到大，已经熟知我们母语的抑扬顿挫和句子结构，于是我们认为，其他国家所谓的章也应该是这样，只不“过用的语言不同。要是这样就了！我有次问一个来自开罗的学生： 阿拉伯语是什么样的”“”语言？ 她回答说： 都是形容词。ell, of course it"s not all adjectives, but I knew what she meant: it"s decorative, it"s ornate, it"s intentionally pleasing. But all those adjectives and all that decoration would be the ruin of any journalist trying to write good English. No proverbs, please.当然，不可能都是形容词，我知道她的意思：阿拉伯语是一种注重雕饰和阅读快感的语言。但是太多形容词和太多雕饰都不利于英的新闻。千万别使用那么多谚语。英语不像西班牙语、意大利语或者法语那样富有音律美，也不像阿拉伯语那样华丽，可能也不像你们的母语那样生动鲜活，但我就是无可救药地热爱英语，因为它平实有力，拥有 海量意义鲜亮的词汇。描述一样事物，不管多高科技多复杂，在标准英语中读者都看懂 - 假如描述准确。不幸的是很多人都不能正确使用英语。以下就是我希望大家避开的一些错误习惯。First, a little history. he English language is derived from two main sources. ne is Latin, the other is nglo-Saxon. he words derived from Latin are the enemy - they will strangle and suffocate everything you write. he nglo-Saxon words will set you free.Believe it or not, this is the language that people in authority in merica routinely use. hey think those long Latin words make them sound important. It no longer rains in merica; your V weatherman will tell that you we"re experiencing a precipitation probability situation.
