1. How to Choose Proper Words(如何选取合适的词)
When we write on common topics for the general audience, we may achieve accuracy(准确)and appropriateness(适宜)by bearing in mind the following guidelines about the choice of words:
1. Use common or informal words for general purposes; use formal or nonstandard words only on special occasions or for special purposes;(一般目的用一般或非正式词汇;特定场合或特殊目的用正式或非标准词汇;)
2. Use specific and concrete words when giving details; use general or abstract words when making summaries;(提供细节时用详细、具体的词汇;概述时用笼统、抽象词汇;)
3. Use idiomatic expressions and words in acceptable collocations; avoid combinations that are unidiomatic;(使用习惯表达和能够搭配的词语;避免使用非习惯表达;)
4. When there are synonyms, choose the word that expresses the meaning most exactly and that suits the content and style.(在近义词中选取表达意义最为准确、最适合内容和语体的那个单词。)
