　　寫法指要

　　1）本文引言段是對青島的概述。第二段描寫其海濱的特色和市內建筑的特點。第三段寫其港口的景色及其在我國對外貿易中所起的作用。

　　2）本文有兩種句子結構值得借鑒：其一是平行結構，如第二段中的“all parts of the country and all corners of the world”和“walk along the beaches， go swimming in the sea， or do some shopping in the stores or on the markets”，這種結構能夠給人以節奏美的感覺。其二是倒裝語序（inverted order）的句子：“Especially attractive are the building groups of the Eastern-and-Western-style mixed houses and villas。”這種句子是把表語提到句首，把主語置于句末。如果主語太長時可以這樣做，它可以避免頭重腳輕的缺陷。英語句法修辭上有一條“句尾重心”（end weight）的準則，要求把分量重的成分放在句子末尾，以起到強調主要內容的作用。
