二 句法层面  

1 为求得在较小的篇幅内容纳较多的信息量新闻英语多采用扩展的简单句

expanded simple sentences其方法是使用定语、状语、同位语、介词短语、分词短语等语

言成分来扩展简单句。因此英语报刊里经常出现一个句子就是一个段落的情况。而要把众

多的信息包容到里面在确保句式不过于复杂的前提下作者只有大量使用或增加修饰限定

词的数量。试看下列一则报道  

LAGOS, Dec. 15(Reuter) - The Nigerian foreign ministry's offices were completely destroyed 

by a fire in the center of Lagos Monday night.  

Eyewitnesses gave conflicting reports about the number of people injured in the blaze, which 

firemen suspect was caused by an electrical fault.  

One fireman said four people had been rescued from the ministry, suffering from minor injuries. 

About 100 firemen were unable to prevent the blaze spreading to buildings beside the seven-storey 

ministry.  

The foreign ministry, which lost many valuable records in the blaze, was due to be moved to a 

new site shortly.  

The building, completely gutted by the blaze, also housed offices of the information ministry 

and the ministry of science and technology.   

2 广泛使用直接引语间接引语。这既可增添新闻报道的真实性和生动性又可显示

其客观性。  

3新闻英语多用主动语态但为了叙事的客观和便利有时也使用一些被动结构。  

4正文较多地使用现在时而标题所使用的时态则几乎都是现在时这可对读者产生

一种"某事正在发生"的印象从而增强其真实感和现实感。例如China Starts WAP Service. / 

Longevity star dies at 110.  

5标题中常使用省略句。像冠词、动词、介词等常在标题中省略这既可节省版面

又可使新闻的风格显得简洁明快。如House and Senate Pursuing Efforts to Reduce Deficit (The 

New York Times) = The House of Representatives and the Senate are pursuing the efforts to reduce 

the deficit.
