Sentence Structures
句型结构
Writing in English begins with the sentence. Sentences are then combined into paragraphs. Finally, paragraphs are used to write longer structures such as essays, business reports, etc.
英语写作都是以句子开头,句子又组成段落。最后,段落形成更长的结构,如短文、商务报告等等。
The first sentence structure is the most common:
第一种句型结构是最常见的:
1.Simple Sentences
简单句
Simple sentences contain no conjunction (i.e., and, but, or, etc.).
简单句中没有连接词(如and, but, or等)
