你会 问自己：我是否达到了写作目标？我的文章是否直接回

答了这个问题？我的中心思想清楚 吗？为了回答这些问题，

你首先需要做的是修改内容。草稿中存在的典型问题是可能

同时包含太少和太多的内容。它可能在一些部分泛泛而谈，

没有提供 充分的解释和令人信服的细节。同时，它也可能谈

论了太多和主题无关的信息。

So,

what

is

a

good

essay

then?

A

good

essay

eliminates

irrelevant

material

while

includes

allthe

information

nece

ssary

to

your

main

point.

Your

reader

needs

sufficient

evi

dence

to

acceptwhat

you

are

saying.

So,

you

have

to

ma

ke

sure

you

have

adequately

developed

andsupported

yo

ur

main

idea.

Content

that

is

unrelated

to

the

main

idea

hould

be

eliminated.

那么，一篇好的文章是什么样子的呢？一篇好的文章会省略

无关的材 料，同时包含所有必要的信息。你的读者需要足够

的证据来接受你的言论。所以，你必须 确保你已经充分展开

和支持你的主要观点。与主旨无关的内容应该被删除。

Then,

what

is

the

second

step

in

revision

?

That

is

for

organization.

A

well-

organized

essay

will

group

similar

ideas

together

and

put

them

in

the

proper

order.

If

那么，修改的第二步是什么呢？那就是修改结构。一篇条理

清晰的文章 会把相似的观点组织在一起，并按适当的顺序排

列。如果你发现从你的草稿中很容易列出 大纲，这意味着你

的文章内容逻辑清晰。你可以很确定你的文章布局良好，否

第三步，我建议你修改文章的长度。你的文章长 度合适吗？

如果它比要求的长度超出很多，你需要考虑减少辅助内容。

< br>但是，即使没有明确的限制，或者你可以随意书写，也请坚

持自我设限。
