　　少用关系代词

　　学会运用关系代词是你学习英文过程中的一个重要的阶段。学会少用它们则表明你取得了更大的进步。在校对你的作品时，仔细检查一下所有的whichs, whos thats和whoms是否必要。删除不必要的关系代词会使你的文章更精彩。

　　Example:

　　Unnecessary: It is a truth that is universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife.

　　Better: It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife.

　　-- Jane Austin
