写作六大秘籍推荐之一[1]

作为文章的编写者，你主要的任务是把你想说的用文字的方式传达给你的读者。为了达到这个目的，你可以多使用动词和主动语态来为你的文章增加生命力。 例如；

在文章中把一个主要的名词换成动词

例1 Verb to be: the use of leaf blowers before 8 am is a violation of local noise abatement laws.

Action verb: the use of leaf blowers before 8 am violates local noise abatement laws.

用一个动词来替代句子中的其中一个重要的名词或形容词

例2 Verb to be: The quarterback’s wretched performance was a disgrace to his team

Action verb: The quarterback’s wretched performance humiliated his team

如果你不知道该如何更改动词，可以重新整理语句形式

例3 Verb to be: Jamie was happy to be part of the all-star soccer team.

Action verb: Being a part of the all-star soccer team thrilled Jamie.

以上的例子已经解析了，运用动词可以是句子更具生动性，也更能吸引读者的眼球。
