提升英文寫作分數的關鍵技巧
一、靈活變換句子開頭
_x000D_
一般來說，英文句子的結構多為「主詞＋動詞＋受詞」的形式，也就是將主詞置於句首。但若能依據情境適時調整句子的起始方式，例如運用倒裝句或以副詞開頭等技巧，便能有效提升文章的表現力與層次感。
_x000D_
· You can do it well only in this way.
_x000D_
→ Only in this way can you do it well.
_x000D_
唯有透過這種方式，你才能將事情辦妥。
_x000D_
· A young woman sat by the window.
_x000D_
→ By the window sat a young woman.
_x000D_
窗邊坐著一位年輕女子。
_x000D_
二、避免重複使用相同詞彙
_x000D_
為了讓文章表達更生動、更具感染力，在寫作時應盡量避免重複使用相同的詞語來表達相同的意思，尤其是一些過於常見的用字。例如，許多同學一提到「喜歡」，腦中立刻浮現的就是 “like”。其實，英文中有許多詞彙與片語能表達類似意涵，像是 love, enjoy, prefer, appreciate, be fond of, care for 等，適時替換能讓文章更顯豐富。
_x000D_
· I like reading while my brother likes watching television.
_x000D_
→ I like reading while my brother enjoys watching television.
_x000D_
我喜歡閱讀，而我弟弟則愛看電視。
_x000D_
三、適時運用省略句
_x000D_
合理且恰當地使用省略句，不僅能使文章更精煉簡潔，也能增添文采與流暢度，讓讀者更容易理解文意。
_x000D_
· He may be busy. If he’s busy, I’ll call later. If he is not busy, can I see him now?
_x000D_
→ He may be busy. If so, I’ll call later. If not, can I see him now?
_x000D_
他或許在忙。若是如此，我晚點再打來；若不忙，我現在能見他嗎？
_x000D_
· If the weather is fine, we’ll go. If it is not fine, we’ll not go.
_x000D_
→ If the weather is fine, we’ll go. If not, not.
_x000D_
天氣好我們就去；天氣不好便作罷。
_x000D_
· She could have applied for that job, but she didn’t do so.
_x000D_
→ She could have applied for that job, but she didn’t.
_x000D_

_x000D_
四、善用分詞構句等非謂語結構

分詞構句等非謂語結構常被視為較進階的語法，若能適當運用，能展現出對語言更熟練的掌握力，為文章增添專業感。

五、長短句交錯運用
_x000D_
在英文寫作中，全篇使用長句或全用短句都容易顯得單調。較好的方式是依據文意與節奏，交替使用長句與短句，使文章段落錯落有致。如此不僅在視覺上更具美感，讀起來也更能展現語言的韻律與力度。
_x000D_

中午我們在陽光下享用了野餐。稍作休息後，大家便開心唱起歌、跳起舞，有人講笑話，也有人下棋，玩得不亦樂乎。
_x000D_
六、以慣用片語取代單字
