Lesson 3 重點整理
英文句子有固定文法: Subject | Verb | (其他)
讓讀者易讀的原則:
1. Express important actions in verbs: 重要的"動作"盡量以動詞呈現,而不要以 nominalization形式呈現 (如-ing, -tion, -ment, -ence, -ry等)
2. Make the subjects of those verbs the characters associated with those actions: 執行"重要動作"的characters要當作句子的主詞 (可以是主要句子的主詞或是子句的主詞)
* Make main characters subjects
3. Nominalizations使用的時機:
(1) They refer to a previous sentence
(2) They replace an awkward The fact that
(3) They name what would be the object of a verb
(4) They name a concept so familiar to your readers that it is a virtual character
