大多数不必要的名词不是单独出现的，而是和冠词或介词组成的短语。
A: to accelerate the pace of economic reform
B: to accelerate economic reform
“to accelerate” = “to increase the pace of”
A: there have been good harvests in agriculture
B: there have been good harvests
“harvest”的意思包含了”agriculture”
A: living standards for the people in both urban and rural areas continued to rise
B: living standards in both urban and rural areas continued to rise
生活标准当然是指人类的啦
有一些不必要的名词不是那么容易找出，但是稍微想一下就会发现它们在句子中无关紧要。
A: following the realization of mechanization and electrification of agriculture
B: following the mechanization and electrification of agriculture
A: it is essential to strengthen the building of national defense
B: it is essential to strengthen national defense
A: these constitute important conditions in striving for the fulfillment of the general task in the transitional period
B: these constitute important conditions for the fulfillment of the general task in the transitional period
需要特别提到的是 范畴名词，在中式英语中是最普遍的。
在这种句式中，第一个名词预示着第二个名词的种类，但却是读者明显就知道的意思：
A: promoting the cause of peaceful reunification
B: promoting peaceful reunification
A: reforms in the sphere of the economy
B: reforms in the economy
A: to ensure a relationship of close cooperation between…
B: to ensure close cooperation between…
大多不必要的动词出现在短语里，这些短语有以下两种主要形式：
1.不必要的动词+名词
A: It is impossible for us to accomplish the transformation of the whole society overnight.
B: It is impossible for us to transform the whole society overnight.
A: They should conduct a careful examination of…
B: They should carefully examine…
A: Trying to entice the Korean army to launch an attack against them.
B: Trying to entice the Korean army to attack them.
被动语态：
A: approval should be given to all these projects
B: all these projects should be approved
give approval to = to approve
A: solutions to these problems can be found only through…
B: the problems can be solved only through…
to find solutions to = to solve
A: grain rationing was implemented
B: grain was rationed
to implement rationing = to ration
2.不必要的动词+不必要的名词+第三个词语
A: our troops used the method of slow advance
B: our troops advanced slowly
A: we adopted the policy of withdrawal
B: we withdrew
A: we need to achieve the objective of clarity in ideology
B: we need to be clear in our ideology
但是有时被用来当做动词的是一个形容词，那么就要将形容词改成动词形式，同时将其他无用的单词摒弃：
A: this measure will have a restrictive effect on the activities of speculators
B: this measure will restrict activities of speculators
有时第三个词语是另一个动词，同样只保留有用的词语
A: we failed to take care to ensure that there must be an all-round balance between the various planned targets
B: we failed to ensure that all-round balance between the planned targets
“there must be”仅仅是重复”ensure“的意思，”targets”是复数形式，不需要”various”作修饰
