PertinentQuotationQuestionRhetoricalQuestionAutobiographyFactsandStatisticsRefutation,开篇恰当地引用名人名言或格言谚语,会使文章显得富于哲理。
这不仅是引起读者注意的一种简单而有效的方法,而且还可以增强文章的说服力和表现力。

作者不是为了获得新信息而发问,而是为了引起读者的思考,所以不要求回答。

“Harvard标准提纲”是一种表达一篇文章中各个部分内容之间关系的结构框架。
根据这个框架结构:
大写的罗马数字(theRomannumerals)表示主要划分(maindivisions);
大写英语字母(upper-caseletters)表示续分(subdivisions);
阿拉伯数字(Arabicnumerals)表示再续分(furtherdivisions);
小写英语字母(lower-caseletters)表示下个层次的再续分(stillfurtherdivisions);
依次类推。
