4、运用非谓语结构
非谓语结构通常被认为是一种高级结构，适当运用非谓语结构，会给人一种熟练驾驭语言的印象。
- When he heard the news, they all jumped for joy.→ Hearing the news, they all jumped for joy.
听了这消息他们都高兴得跳了起来。
- As I didn’t know her address, I wasn’t able to get in touch with her.→ Not knowing her address, I wasn’t able to get in touch with her.
由于不知道她的地址，我没法和她联系。
5、结合使用长、短句
在英语写作中，过多地使用长句或过多地使用短句都不好。正确的做法是，根据实际情况在文章中交替使用长句与短语，使文章显得错落有致，这样不仅使文章在形式上增加美感，而且使文章读起来铿锵有力。
-At noon we had a picnic lunch in the sunshine. Then we had a short rest. Then we began to play happily. We sang and danced. Some told stories. Some played chess.→ At noon we had a picnic lunch in the sunshine. After a short rest, we had great fun singing and dancing, telling jokes and playing chess.
中午我们晒着太阳吃野餐。休息一会儿后，我们唱的唱歌，跳的跳舞，还有的讲笑话、下棋，大家玩得很开心。
6、使用短语代替单词
使用短语代替单词。

他已决定长大了当老师。
- He doesn't like music.→ He doesn't care much for music.
他不大喜欢音乐。
- He told me that the question was now under discussion.→ He told me that the question was now being discussed.
他告诉我问题现正正在讨论中。
7、套用某些固定表达
