句子的重点可以通过下列方法,加以突出:
1. 把重点摆在句首或句尾。
一般而论,最显眼的位置是在句尾,其次是在句首,中间的位置最平淡,乏善可陈。例如:
(1)Incorrect grammar and improper construction invariably distract readersattention.
(2)The history of vocabulary is,in many ways,the record of civilisation.
把重点放在句尾是种吊胃口的方法,读者或听者非得读完或听完整句不可。
2. 在复杂句里,把主句放在从句之后。
除了名词从句和形容词从句之外,因为它们位置较固定,副词从句中有几种的位置灵活,可以在主句之前出现,也可以跟在主句之后。通常我们就把这样的副词从句提前,重点则放在后头的主句,如(3b):
(3a)I came upon an old classmate when I went to town yesterday.
(3b)When I went to town yesterday,I came upon an old classmate.
5. 必要时,重复重要的语词或概念。例如:
(9)Jackie enjoys the company of ladies. He likes their beauty,he likes their delicacy,he likes their vivacity,and he likes their silence.
(10)the land stretched out without names. Nameless headlands split the surf;nameless lakes reflected the nameless mountains and nameless rivers flowed through nameless valleys and nameless bays.
6. 尽量用主动说态,因此(11b)比(11a)好:
(11a)A pedestrian was struck on the head by a flying stone.
(11b)A flying stone struck a pedestrian on the head.
7. 适当时候,可用倒装句和平行句,如:
(12)Seven dwarfs lived here in the centre of the dark forest. Here,in the centre of the dark forest lived seven dwarfs.
(13)Severity breeds fear;roughness breeds hatred.
(14)Honesty recommends that I speak;self-interest demands that I remain silent.
