英语新闻标题总是力求用有限的字数来表达新闻的内容,为此,在措词上尤其要狠下功夫,选词尽可能经济达意、简短明了,偏爱选用那些短小精悍或字母最少的动词。# M1 ~+ C. k$ y( v7 {2 `
/ G9 a! { u* h: `这是因为短小易懂、形象生动的措词不仅能增强新闻的简洁性和可读性,而且还能节省版面篇幅。

如表示“破坏”或“损坏”一词意义的动词,标题一般不用damage,而用一些较之简短的词,如hit,harm,hurt,ruin或wreck等。又如表示“放弃”这一概念的动词,标题一般不用abandon,而用drop,giveup,quit,skip或yield 等,表示“爆炸”之类的动词意义时,一般不用 explode,而用blast,crash,ram或smash等词。
