下面就是今天
1、删去或简化无实义的表达
Original: He is a man who is always busy. He often switches in a hasty manner from one task to the next.
More concise: He is always busy. He often switches hastily from one task to the next.
尽管在这两个例句中，前后两句话含义相同，但毫无疑问，改造后的句子要简洁得多，它们符合表达的“经济性”原则。要提高英语表达的效果和效率，就要设法提高语言表达的简洁性。
2、避免重复
Original: Novice drivers who do not have much experience driving are more More precise: likely to be involved in car accidents.
More concise: Novice drivers are more likely to be involved in car accidents.
在第一句中，“we do not have much experience driving”是不必要的，因为我们已经得知他们是 “novice drivers”。因为“Novice”表示的就是缺乏经验的新手，不需要重复使用 “do not have much experience driving”。
那么，我们来结合题目看看如何做到不使用重复的词：
The pattern Box observed in 2012 may repeat itself again, with harmful effects on the Arctic ecosystem.
A)NO CHANGE
B)Itself,
C)Itself, with damage and
D)Itself possibly,
正确选项：B。通过判断，我们会发现题目中的repeat和选项A中的again重复，题目中的harmful effects和选项C中的damage重复，题目中的may和选项D中的possibly重复，所以正确答案为B。类似重复的表达还有 “each year”和”annually”, “at the same time”和 “simultaneously”等，希望同学们可以在做题过程中多多积累。
