寫作時,許多人都會寫到「某某事會在下一節或下一段詳細敘述」,此時就會用到 detail 這個字或其字形變化,因而形成三個非常實用的句型;它們分別是「某某事 + will be described in detail…」、「The details of 某某事 + will be described …」和「A detailed description of 某某事 + will be given…」。請大家務必熟記這三個歷久彌新、使用率超高的句型,將會受用無窮。譬如說,某某事就是前第一家庭的國際洗錢活動,那麼這三個句型的寫法如下:
- The international money laundering operations involving the former first family will be described in detail in the next paragraph. (前第一家庭的國際洗錢活動將在下一段詳細敘述)
- The details of the international money laundering operations involving the former first family will be described in the next paragraph.
- A detailed description of the international money laundering operations involving the former first family will be given in the next paragraph.
第1句也可改寫成下句,意思相同,亦同樣相當常用:
The international money laundering operations involving the former first family will be fully described in the next paragraph.
