Vary your sentence structure - Nothing seems more unsophisticated than an uninterrupted succession of subject-verb constructions. Take a series of sentences like the following as an example: "Moby Dick can symbolize both a manifestation of God or of the ultimate evil.鈥? Here are just a few of the variations you can make: 路 Melville renders Moby Dick as simultaneously a manifestation of God and as a symbol of the ultimate evil. Combine short sentences - Try reading your paper out loud. If it seems choppy it can likely be remedied by your grouping short sentences into longer, more complex ones. For example: "Gatsby鈥檚 obsession with Daisy has deeper implications. He becomes obsessed with escaping his own past." This would be much stronger if combined: "Gatsby's obsession with Daisy eventually translates into a yearning to escape his own past." Don鈥檛 use passive voice - Plain and simple. It makes your writing weak. Bad: "This fact was proven by Napoleon's subsequent actions." Good: "Napoleon proved this fact through his subsequent actions." The object of the sentence should never be turned into the subject. Maintain consistency in tense - Don't drift from the present to the past to the conditional (from "he is" to "he was" to "he would have"). Some things to avoid wherever possible: 路 Starting a sentence with "there are" or "there were". |
