今天HotEssay要和大家分享的是提高英語寫作的7個基本方法，那麼話不多說，我們直接進入主題：
1. Keep it simple. 保持文章的簡潔。
Simple done accurately is better than complicated done inaccurately.
簡單做得準確比複雜做得不準確好。
In other words, it's better to keep things simple and do it well, rather than over-complicate everything and do it badly. So in taking your English exams, you want to show off your English, but you want to show off your accurate English, not all this English that you don't know or haven't learnt yet.
換句話說，最好保持簡單，把事情做好，而不是把事情複雜化，做得不好。所以在參加英語考試時，你想炫耀你的英語，但你想展示你準確的英語，而不是所有你不知道或還沒有學過的英語。
2. Prepare key phrases. 準備重要的短語。
In order to avoid making mistakes in your writing, it's a really, really good idea to have a collection of set phrases and keywords that you can use in that exam.
為了避免在你的寫作中出現錯誤，一個非常非常好的主意，有一個集合的固定短語和關鍵字，你可以在那次考試中使用。
You don't want to rehearse what you're going to write, but you do want to have a nice selection of things that you could possibly say if the time arises. Especially on the IELTS exam, and I know a lot of you are studying for this, but this really goes for any academic writing exam, you want to have linking words and key phrases prepared.
你不想排練你將要寫的東西，但你確實希望有一個很好的選擇，你可能會說，如果時間到了。特別是在雅思考試上，我知道你們很多人都在學習這個，但是這真的適用於任何學術寫作考試，你想要準備好連結詞和關鍵短語。
Go and do research, and prepare yourself.
去做研究，做好準備。
3. Do not use contractions. 不要使用縮寫。
Use: cannot, do not, it is, they are, they are not, it is not, I am, should not, etc.
4. Reduce your word count. 減少字數。
Use as few words as possible. Word count down and English level up.
用儘可能少的詞。字數下降，英語水平上升。
How:
Avoid "very", "so", "a lot", "really" and replace them with a strong word. Instead of saying "I am really happy", say "I am elated." Instead of saying "so scared", say "terrified". Avoid "there is" and "there are" which add extra words to sentences. Instead of saying "there are many problems that we may encounter", say "we may encounter many problems". 5. Read the right materials/documents. 閱讀正確的寫作範文。
Read the right pieces of writing.
You need to go online or go to libraries, and read articles, read reports, read essays, read reviews. Do everything you can to familiarize yourself with all the styles of writing.
你需要上網或去圖書館，閱讀文章，閱讀報告，閱讀論文，閱讀評論。盡你所能使自己熟悉所有的寫作風格。
6. Check your own work. 自己檢查自己的寫作。
In writing exams, you want perfection.
在寫作考試中，你想要的是完美。
7. Write and get your work checed. 付費找人批改你的寫作。
Get a proper teacher and pay them to help you. Why would a random stranger on the Internet want to help you with your writing?
找個合適的老師，付錢給他們幫你修改你的寫作。為什麼付費：想想為什麼網絡上的陌生人會想幫你批改你的文章？
