When all things are considered,young adults of today live more satisfying lives than those of their parents,in my opinion.
這句話當(dāng)中的“when all things are considered”和“in my opinion“都顯得多余。完全可以去掉。改為:
Young adults of today live more satisfying lives than their parents.
2.有些空洞和繁瑣的表達(dá)方式可以進行替換,例如:
Due to the fact that our grandparents were under an obligation to help their parents, they did not have the options that young people have at this point in time.
“due to the fact that”就是一個很典型的繁瑣的表達(dá)方式的例子,可以替換,簡化為下面的表達(dá)方式:
Because our grandparents were obligated to help their parents, they did not have the options that young people have now.
托福寫作中應(yīng)盡量減少重復(fù)啰嗦
1.盡量避免重復(fù)使用同樣的詞匯?;蛘哂械臅r候雖然詞匯沒有重復(fù),但意思卻有重復(fù)。這時候可以做一些簡化的工作。例如下面這個例子:
The farm my grandfather grew up on was large in size.
large 對一個farm來說就是size方面的large,所以in size可以去掉,改為:
The farm my grandfather grew up on was large.
更簡潔的表達(dá)方式為:
My grandfather grew up on a large farm.
2.有時一個詞組可以用一個更簡單的單詞來替換,例如:
My grandfather has said over and over again that he had to work on his parents’ farm.
這里的over and over again就可以改為repeatedly,顯得更為簡潔:
My grandfather has said repeatedly that he had to work on his parents’ farm.
