很多人都强调用连词、介词等词汇手段迅速提高语言水平。但这种方法需要一定的积累。而通过对低级句型的改造,可以迅速达到这一目的。
Many people emphasize using conjunctions, prepositions and other lexical means to improve the language level rapidly. But this method needs some accumulation. Through the transformation of low-level sentence patterns, we can achieve this goal quickly.
●强调句:可以轻松地将时间、地点、原因、方式等类型状语从句转变为强调时间的强调句。
● emphasis sentence: it is easy to change adverbial clauses of time, place, reason, way and other types into emphasis sentences of time.

●倒装句:只要句中有介词短语或状语从句,便可将其提前,变成倒装句。
Inversion sentence: as long as there is a prepositional phrase or adverbial clause in the sentence, it can be changed into inversion sentence in advance.
Only when I turned right at the crossing did that car crack towards me。
Only by this means can he escape from the big fire。
●with引导的伴随结构:可以将状语从句或并列句中的其中一个分句变成with结构。
Accompanying structure guided by with: it can change one clause of adverbial clause or paratactic sentence into with structure.
With the sun lighting brightly and the birds singing clearly, I went to school in high spirits。
●巧妙地使用非谓语动词:可以将状语从句或并列的动词简化为非谓语动词。
Use non predicate verbs skillfully: you can simplify adverbial clauses or parallel verbs into non predicate verbs.
Hearing that, the driver’s wife quickly added that her husband often talked nonsense after drinking。(低级形式:When he heard that, ……)
Hearing that, the driver’s wife quickly added that her husband often talked nonsense after drinking。 When he heard that )
●恰到好处的被动句:适合应用于较简短的句子,这样显得语言简洁生动,宾语一般是nothing、anything、everything等不定代词。
Appropriate passive sentence: it is suitable for shorter sentences, which makes the language concise and vivid. The object is generally nothing, anything, everything and other indefinite pronouns.

●感叹句:通常用于开头结尾活跃文章气氛,凡是“I feel ……”之类表达感情的句子皆可如此改造。
● exclamation sentence: usually used at the beginning and the end to activate the atmosphere of the article, usually "I feel..." Such sentences expressing feelings can be modified in this way.
How terrible I felt today! I failed again in the math exam。
●高级定语从句:若定语从句中的动词带有介词,只需将介词移至先行词后。
High level attributive clause: if the verb in the attributive clause has preposition, just move the preposition to the back of the antecedent.
We came to a place to which they had never paid a visit before。
●进行时态:有时会含有一定情绪,尤其要使用always这样的富含感情色彩的副词。
● progressive tense: sometimes it contains certain emotions, especially the emotional adverbs like always.
●婉转表达:需要使用幽默的技巧,主要用于漫画型作文题。
● tactful expression: it needs to use humorous skills, which are mainly used for comic composition questions.

●what引导的名词性从句:将动宾结构转化为此结构。
The nominal clause guided by what: transform the verb object structure into the structure.
What he gave me, which I knew, were not only a Christmas present but also a heart full of love and a mind of my existence in it。●“数词+名词”变为“as many as+数词+名词”
What he gave me, which I knew, were not only a Christmas present but also a heart full of love and a mind of my existence in it。 ● "Numeral + noun" becomes "as many as + numeral + noun"
As many as ten years ago, my hometown used to be covered by forests。
●适当加一些不关痛痒的插入语:一些连词、副词可以放到句子中间充当语气较弱的插入语,如I guess、however、in a way、certainly、in my opinion、probably、briefly等,有时可以考虑几个插入语连用,就更像英美人士的文章了。
Add some irrelevant parentheses properly: some conjunctions and adverbs can be put in the middle of the sentence to act as weak parentheses, such as I guess, hover, in a way, certainly, in my opinion, probability, brief, etc. sometimes several parentheses can be considered to be used together, which is more like the article of the British and American people.
●独立主格:将主从句去掉连词,前句动词变为分词即可。
● independent subject case: remove the conjunctions from the subject clause and change the verbs in the preceding sentence into participles.
The weather being fine, a large number of people went to climb the Western Hills。
