寫得出色‧寫得清晰 1

下面那一句雖然文法無錯，但是為甚麼還是寫得不好?

英詩教學 - Rhymes 押韻 (二之一)

押韻(rhyme)通常指一組單字的最尾音節發音一樣。自14世紀以來，愈來愈多的英詩都講求押韻。

我保守，總是覺得詩要押韻，讀起上來才好聽，也會更易記憶。以下會介紹其中五種：

1. Perfect Rhyme
2. Half Rhyme
3. Masculine Rhyme
4. Feminine Rhyme
5. Imperfect Rhyme

如何寫好文章標題？

好的文章標題能吸引讀者的注意，所以要下些功夫，花花心思。這是至普通不過的道理，但做到又有多少個呢？

其實我們只要用一些非常簡單的字，就可以令文章標題變得吸引。

最近《福布斯》雜誌(Forbes)介紹新晉女富豪Elizabeth Holmes的文章標題就是一個好例子了。年僅三十歲的Elizabeth Holmes，十年前毅然放棄了史丹福大學學位，憑著自創的驗血方法震驚醫學界。她一手創辦的公司Thernos，現在市值超過九十億。作者用了五個字，就清楚表達了女富豪的工作和成就。
