【正文】 anisms. Avoid ambiguity by writing either active termites and active organisms or organisms and active termites. When adding a modifier like active before a pound of nouns like termites and organisms, be sure to clarify whether you intend the modifier to apply to both nouns or just the first one. If you intend it to apply to both, use parallel construction and write the modifier in front of each noun. If you intend it to apply to just one noun, place that one noun at the end of the list and the modifier directly in front of it.活動著的白蟻和有機體之類的話，爲(wèi)了避免模棱兩可，最好這樣寫：“活動著的白蟻和活動著的有機體”或是“白蟻和活動著的有機體”。t say Lessor and Lessee. These are bad nicknames for a lease because they are easily reversed or mistyped. Use Landlord and Tenant instead.

Contract writing is not creative writing and is not meant to provoke reflective thoughts or controversies about nuances of meaning. Contract writing is clear, direct and precise. Therefore, use mon words and mon meanings. Write for the mon man and the mon woman.。28. Be consistent in using words. If you refer to the subject matter of a sales contract as goods use that term throughout the contract。在一份銷售合同中，如果你想用“貨物”來指整個合同的標的物，就不要時而稱它們爲(wèi)“貨物”，時而又改稱它們爲(wèi)“産品”。你可能學(xué)過許多不同類的文法和標點符號規(guī)則，但在使用它們時最好保持一致。類似的條款見附錄A和B。下面有兩個定義術(shù)語的例子：“貨物”(Goods)是指買方已經(jīng)同意向賣方購買的貨物。34.
