阅读下面短文,然后根据文章后的题目要求进行回答。
Sooner or later everyone has to write something-a thank-you note, a report at a meeting, a complaint or an apology.If you hate writing assignments in school, or if you still fear to put pen to paper, facing that empty page is almost as frightening as you’re facing a tiger.How to write it?There’s no mystery.Clear writing is just clear thinking.Here are some techniques for you.
Thinking on paper
Sit down with pencil and paper or at the computer screen and start outlining what you want to say, why it’s important, why it matters, and what its impact is on the reader.Just get the ideas down.The next step is to go back and put them in order.
Writing first sentence
Try to make your first sentence catch the reader’s eyes, because ________, the reader isn’t going to read on.Get a good, clear lead sentence that summarizes your points and that answers the reader’s question “What’s in it for me?” If you can’t do it in one sentence, then do it in two or three but keep them short.
Remembering the reader
Short, simple words are better than long words.Short sentences are better than long sentences.Remember that the goal is to communicate, not express yourselves.Most people are so devoted to what they want to say that they forget somebody else has to be able to read it.Too much information makes you lose readers before they get to the meat(某物之主要或重要的)of what you want to say.
Reading and rewriting
Read what you have written out loud, and listening for any awkward sentences.All good writers read, then rewrite.Back off a little bit from what you’re writing.It’s an old standard, but if you can, write something and come back a day late.
