雅思写作中＂he＂和＂she＂的使用要分场合

中文的博大精深很多时候让英语使用者叹为观止，就拿英语的性别称谓来讲，汉语里面可以用“他”指代所有人而没有歧义，但在英语里面却一定要区分＂he＂和＂she＂，尤其在雅思托福写作的时候，性别称谓怎么写尤其重要。

尽量不用通性代词he，除了明确地指代一个男性人物时，都要设法避免使用之。可以根据语境需要，选用下列替换方式：

1) 采用复数形式：

Sexist： When bathing a baby， never leave him unattended.

Revised： When bathing babies， never leave them unattended.

给婴儿洗澡时，一定不能让他们无人照料。

2) 用we/us/our改写原句：

Sexist：From each according to his abilities， to each according to his needs.

Revised：From each of us according to our abilities， to each of us according to our needs.

各尽所能，按需分配。

3) 改用第二人称：

Sexist： No man knows his true character until he has run out of gas， purchased something on the installment plan and raised an adolescent.

Revised： You don‘t know what your true character is until you have run out of gas， purchased something on the ! installment plan and raised an adolescent.

只有当汽车大的油用光了，按分规付款方式购物和抚养大一个孩子时，人的本来品性才会显露出来。

4)改用被动语态

Sexist： One who， when he has the choice of two evils， chooses both.

Revised： One who， when given the choice of two evils， chooses both.

一个在两种恶行之中要作出选择就两者都选的人。

5)完全省略代词：

Sexist： What a person thinks of after he becomes a departee?

Revised： What a person thinks of after becoming a departee?

一个人离去后，会作何感想呢?

6)用冠词替代：

Sexist： Can a critic give his opinion of an omelet without being asked to make one?

Revised： Can a critic give an opinion of...?

评论家议论煎蛋时难道到非要他去自己煎鸡蛋吗?
