      雅思学术写作需遵循的1核心准则！

　　Put statements in positive form

　　以肯定的形式表达否定的意思, 避免使用平淡、毫无色彩，犹豫不决和含糊其辞的语言。

　　Eg：He was not very often on time.

　　= He usually came late.

　　Eg: He did not think that studying Latin was much use.

　　= He thought the study of Latin useless.

Eg: The taming of the Shrew is rather weak in spots. Shakespeare does not portray Katharine as a very admirable character, nor does Bianca remain long in memory as an important character in Shakespeare’s works.

　　= The women in The Taming of the Shrew are unattractive. Katharine is disagreeable, Bianca insignificant.

　　 Omit needless words

　　删除冗词　　Vigorous writing is concise. A sentence should contain no unnecessary words, a paragraph no unnecessary sentences, for the same reason that a drawing should have no unnecessary lines and a machine no unnecessary parts. This requires not that the writer make all his sentences short, or that he avoid all detail and treat his subjects only in outline, but that every word tell.

　　有力的写作一定简洁。

　　Owing to the fact that

　　=Since (because)

　　In spite of the fact that

　　=Though (although)

　　Call your attention to the fact that

　　=Remind you (notify you)

　　The fact that he had not succeeded

　　=His failure

　　Avoid a succession of loose sentences

　　别写流水账，找找语言的逻辑关系，通过who, which, when, where, and while 这些词把句子串起来。

　　7. Express co-ordinate ideas in similar form

　　Parallel structure 平行结构讲究对称美：内容对等，结构一致。

　　Eg: Formerly, science was taught by the textbook method, while now the laboratory method is employed.

　　Parallel structure: Formerly, science was taught by the textbook method; now it is taught by the laboratory method.
