3.冒号
请遵循以下3大规则:
1.在正式的写作中,冒号的作用仅在于表明其后是对前面所述内容的详细说明、定义、解释或过去发生事情的概述。冒号之前一般是独立从句,并且通常情况下有as follows、the following、namely或like等提示短语。例如:
正确:Your instructions are as follows: read the passage carefully, answer the questions on the last page, and turn over your answer sheet.
2.动词和直接宾语间不要放冒号。例如:
错误:I want: a slice of pizza and a small green salad.
正确:This is what I want: A slice of pizza and a small green salad.
3.如果前后两句话有如上所述的紧密关系,即使没有上述表示这层关系的短语,也可使用冒号,并且在这种情况下,句号也可用。例如:
正确:We were aghast: The charming country inn that had been advertised in such glowing terms proved to be a leaking cabin full of mosquitoes.
4.连字符号和破折号
请遵循以下7大规则:
1.行末单词分开时使用连字符号。例如:
正确:In this incredible canvas, the artist used only monochromatic elements.
2.表示21-99这些数字和用作形容词的分数时,使用连字符号。
