1. 原句：My grandfather has said over and over again that he had to work on his parent’s farm.

簡化：My grandfather has said repeatedly that he had to work on his parent’s farm.

分析：使用“repeatedly”代替了“over and over again”,用一個(gè)更簡單的單詞來替換一個(gè)長一點(diǎn)的詞組。

2. 原句：Dairy cows were raised on the farm, which was located 100 kilometers from the nearest university and was in an area that was remote.

簡化：The dairy farm was located in a remote area, 100kilometers to the nearest university.

分析：Dairy cows和farm可以使用簡短的dairy farm替換，而且dairy farm的含義就包含了Dairy cows were raised on the farm。

把which was located 100 kilometers to the nearest university這個(gè)從句改成一個(gè)獨(dú)立的使用逗號(hào)連接的同位語，既醒目又簡潔。

3. 原句：Every nook and cranny of our life has indeed been teeming with innovations of outstanding merit.

簡化：Stunning innovations have penetrated every aspect of our life.

分析：堆砌難詞以及短語。這樣的句子雖然看起來很華麗，但是實(shí)際內(nèi)容往往不夠豐富。同時(shí)根據(jù)句意看出此句使用被動(dòng)語態(tài)不太必要，用簡單的主動(dòng)語態(tài)即可。

4. 原句：However, breakthroughs and accomplishments are nonetheless exploited for illegal and selfish purposes, say, nuclear deterrence, climate change and terrorism.

簡化：However, technology can be used for evil, say, nuclear disasters and terrorism.

分析：breakthroughs and accomplishments可以概括成technology，illegal and selfish purposes可以概括成evil，針對(duì)同一類型的詞匯可以使用一個(gè)概括性的單詞去替換，避免內(nèi)容冗長又過于類似。

5. 原句：He has no sense of principle, whether he is in public or in private.

簡化：He has no principles, public or private.

分析：提到“……感”或“……意識(shí)”，很多人會(huì)下意識(shí)使用sense of...，其實(shí)可以直接報(bào)答為no principles。后半句中whether...的結(jié)構(gòu)也可以直接表述成public or private。

下列句子是經(jīng)典名言，各位同學(xué)可以好好分析，可以記下來，做為模仿對(duì)象。
