一、以下四種手段是增加句子復(fù)雜性的常見方法，也是得高分的“亮點”。

1.改變句子的開頭方式，不要一味地都是主語開頭，接著是謂語、賓語，最后再加一個狀語。可以把狀語置于句首，或用分詞做狀語等。

[原文]we met at the school gate and went there together early in the morning.

[修正]early in the morning we met at the school gate and went there together.

[原文]the young man couldn't help crying when he heard the bad news.

[修正]hearing the bad news，the young man couldn't help crying.

2.在整篇文章中，避免只使用一兩個句式，要靈活運用諸如倒裝句、強調(diào)句、主從復(fù)合句、分詞狀語等。

①強調(diào)句

[原文]my parents praised ah fu warmly. it had saved my little sister bravely.

[修正]my parents praised ah fu warmly. it was our brave ah fu who had saved my little sister bravely.

②由what等引導(dǎo)的從句，此處的what相當(dāng)于中文的“所……”，有很大的概括力，如：

[原文]we had to stand there to catch the offender.

[修正]what we had to do was (to) stand there， trying to catch the offender.

what china has achieved in recent years is known through the world.

china is no longer what it used to be.

③由with或without引導(dǎo)的短語。如：

he sat in a chair with a newspaper in the hand.

④分詞短語。如：

satisfied with the result， he decided to go on with a new experiment.

⑤倒裝句。如：

only in this way can we achieve our goal.

never before have i seen such a wonderful film.

⑥省略句。如：

if so， victory will be ours.

you can make some changes wherever necessary.

⑦對比，這是中文中也常用的方法。如：

failure is not a crime， but failure to learn from failure is.

when i play， i feel excited， and after it i feel relaxed.

3.通過分句和合句，增強句子的連貫性和表現(xiàn)力。

[原文]he stopped us half an hour ago. he made us catch the next offender.

[修正]he stopped us half an hour ago and made us catch the next offender.

[原文]we had a short rest. then we began to play happily. we sang and danced.

some told stories. some played chess.

[修正]after a short rest， we had great fun singing and dancing，telling jokes and playing chess.

4.學(xué)會使用過渡詞。如：

①遞進： then(然后)， besides(還有)， furthermore(而且)， moreover(此外)等。

②轉(zhuǎn)折： however(然而)， but(但是)， on the country(相反)， after all(畢竟)等。

③總結(jié)： finally(最后)， at last(最后)， in brief(總之)， in conclusion(最后)等。

④強調(diào)： indeed(確實)， certainly(一定)， surely(確定)， above all(尤其)等。

⑤對比： in the same way(同樣地)， just as(正如)， on the one hand…on the other hand(一方面……另一方面……)等。

5.注意使用不同長度的句子。

二、對于“較復(fù)雜的詞匯”，可以從以下幾個方面著手。

1.注意使用詞組、習(xí)語來代替一些單詞，以增加文采。如：

[原文]a new railway is being built in my hometown.

[修正]a new railway is under construction in my hometown.

2.使用一些很有“洋味”的單詞。如：

thank you for sharing the time with us.

the way he views the world is very practical.

3.避免重復(fù)使用某一單詞或短語。如：

[原文]i like reading while my brother likes watching television.

[修正]i like reading while my brother enjoys watching television.
