新闻标题制作教程七:标题十大规范 一、结构:新闻标题通常须有动态词汇,通用结构为:行为主体+行为+行为客体。如: 海南下放权力177项 (2008年07月09日《新华每日电讯》) 二、语态:多用主动语态,少用被动语态。如: “福建土楼”被列入《世界遗产名录》 这则标题可改为: “福建土楼”跻身《世界遗产名录》 三、时态:除特殊需要,无须在标题中加上时间,用现在时表述基本新闻事实,给读者以强烈的时效感;对即将发生的新闻事实,应在标题中用“将”注明。如: 凶徒机场连伤五人 这则标题不宜改为: 凶徒昨晚机场连伤五人 四、标点:新闻标题中尽可能地省略标点符号。顿号、逗号尽量用空格替代;严禁使用感叹号;尽量不用省略号、破折号、问号。如:
沪指跌破3000点! 注:感叹号带有强烈的感情色彩,有违新闻客观、平衡原则。 五、字数:标题应尽量简练,主题字数宜控制在12个字以内。若主题过长,可借助副题短化主题。如: 国际能源机构预测2013年前石油供应将持续紧张 这则标题可采用引题—主题式复合标题,短化主题: 国际能源机构预测 (引) 2013年前石油供应将持续紧张 (主) 六、句式:新闻标题中的常用句式有陈述句、疑问句、祈使句、无主句。 1.陈述句式标题:优点是严肃、直接,缺点是平铺直叙,有时会偏长。 2.疑问句式标题:疑问句式标题往往能吸引读者,适合有争议性的新闻报道。如: 房价何时见底
3.祈使句式标题:祈使句是表示请求、命令、劝告、催促的句子,这种句式的标题明确表达新闻立场。如: 别让爱心伤了灾区孩子 (摘自2008年07月11日《中国青年报》) 4.无主句式标题:无主句,即省略了主语的句子,无主句式标题短小精悍,富有表现力。 七、语言:标题语言尽量大众化,不用生僻字,尽可能地用比喻、比拟等修辞手法,善于将枯燥的数字化为与读者相关的影响。如: 八国集团营养过剩的宴会 (摘自2008年07月08日英国《泰晤士报》) 这则标题意在批评在全球粮食危机背景下,八国集团峰会领导人享用豪华晚宴。用“营养过剩”替代“豪华”,使标题逸趣横生。 八、逻辑:标题中引题、主题、副题的逻辑结构应连贯,不能颠倒。如: 村民悬红抓猪贼 (主) 家猪屡屡被盗 (副)

英语中一些常见词语的辨析 alone为形容词,意为“单独的”,只作表语,不能作定语。侧重说明独自一人,没有助手或同伴,没有感***彩的只表示客观的状态。lonely意为“孤独的”,表示主观上感到孤独、寂寞,有较浓的感***彩,指因缺少朋友、同情、友谊等产生的一种悲伤和忧郁的感情。它为形容词,在句中作表语或定语。作定语时,意为“荒凉;偏僻”,多修饰表示地点的名词。alone还可以作副词。 alone 副词adv. 单独;独自 She went home alone. 她独自回家去了。 After his wife died, he lived alone. 他的妻子死后,他一个人生活。 real既是形容词又是副词,其意为"真的,真实的",在作副词时与true在意义上的主要区别是:real指人的感官觉得某物像"真的",多指真实存在的,而不是想象出来的。如:
Was it real or was it a dream? 这是真的还是个梦? true既是形容词也是副词,意思是"真实的,真正的",其意义与real的区别是:true的"真实"是建立在已知的事实基础上,指与实际相符,不是"发明"或"编造"出来的。如:This is a true story. 这是一个真实的故事。 Is the news true? 这消息是真的吗? a movie based on a true story 一个以真实故事为背景的影片 true与real在某些情况下也可以通用,如在表示一件事情的实际情况与真实情况不符时,true与real都可以用。如:Tell me the real/true reason why he resigned. 告诉我他辞职的真实原因。 He seems quiet but reveals his true/real character on the football field. 他看起来很安静但是在足球场上却展现了他真实的一面。 另外,在说到某事物时举例说他/它有其应有的"重要"性质时,二者均可使用。如: She was his first real/true girlfriend. 她是他的第一个真正的女朋友。 This job will be a true/real test of the new system. 这项工作将会是对这个新系统的一次真实的检验。 real表示客观存在
