词语简化的一些技巧
　　² 策略之一：用介词短语替代从句。
　　例:
　　Wordy: While they were playing tennis, she started an argument that lasted all morning.
　　Better: During tennis she started an argument that lasted all morning.
　　Wordy: When you come to the second traffic light, turn right.
　　Better: At the second traffic light turn left.
　　² 策略之二：删除诸如"who is”或"that is"之类的关系代词，变从句为短语。
　　例:
　　Wordy: The novel, which is written in three parts, told a story that took place in the Middle Ages.
　　Better: The three-part novel told a story set in the Middle Ages.
　　注：把句中的”three parts”改用形容词来表达，节省了四个不必要的单词”which is written in”。我们经常可以将关系代词如”that”去掉，这只会引起少的变动。
　　² 策略之三：剔除你不需要的单词
　　"Two joint partners will present their views over a long-distance telephone call. "
　　写完这样的句子后，你自己再读一遍，挑出单词”joint”和”telephone”，注意删去不必要的词。
　　² 策略之四：表达否定意义时，尽量避免使用否定词。英语中很多词不用 "no’s" 或者"not’s"也能表达否定含义的词汇，你尽可以采取更为委婉的表达方式。
　　例：
　　Thus college students who do not have sufficient financial backing ,
　　也就是 college students who lacks sufficient financial backing。
　　如果你不想使用太多的否定词，就应该尽量避免使用它们。
