and和松散句
松散句在文章中随处可见,难以消亡。松散句在语法上并没错误,它只是太长,且干扰读者对文章的理解,不幸的是,犯有此类毛病的作者往往屡见不鲜。对此可遵循一条好的原则:如果发现一个句子长及两到三行,则仔细考虑两遍,它很可能要彻底改动。

Better: Im sorry to let you know that a winter storm will delay shipment of your order until February 16.
松散句经常有很多and。在口语中,尚可多用几个and 但若过多地出现在书面英语中,则令人难以接受。取代and的方法是改用逗号或从属结构,或者干脆省略。
