2、老外也主张不写噜苏或绚丽的字眼（flowery or wordy），句子应该越短越好，一句能用两个字，绝不多加一个。 例如：
? at this point in time, we should pull together for our goal. (现在我们应该为我们的目标团结一致）(如果说：now, we should pull……更简单。因为 at this point in time = now)
? despite the fact that my english is not very good, i am not discouraged. （虽然我的英语不好，但我不灰心。) (如果说：although my english is not…… 就更简短。因为despite the fact that= although = though）
? i am of the opinion that mr. lee should resign from this position. (我想李先生应该辞职) (假如说：i think mr. lee should……不是更简单吗？因为i am of the opinion = i think)
? he quitted the job due to the fact that he was sick. (他由于生病而辞职) (若说：he quitted the job because he was sick. 更简单。因为 due to the fact that = because）
? in the majority of cases, he likes to ride bike to the office.（他通常喜欢骑单车到办公室) (如果说：usually, he likes to ride…… 更简单。因为 in the majority of cases = usually）
? she shows a preference
