How to use punctuation marks?

Punctuations include two types: dots and labels. The function of the dot is to break, which mainly indicates the pause of the sentence and the tone of the structural relationship. According to the different positions used, points can be divided into two types: the end point of a sentence and the middle point of a sentence. \x0d\ 1。 The period at the end of a sentence includes three types: period, question mark and exclamation point, \x0d\ 1, period (omitted) \x0d\ 2, question mark (? (Note): \ x0d \ a. In addition to general questions, question marks are used at the end of rhetorical questions and rhetorical questions. \x0d\ Example: Can there be anything more sinister in the world? \x0d\ Example: Who created the human world? It's us working people. \x0d\ B, only a question mark is used at the end of the sentence, and commas are used between items in the sentence; But sometimes in order to emphasize the independence of each option, you can also add a question mark after each item. (Questions are asked from different angles, instead of choosing relationships, so every sentence is a question) \x0d\ Example: Will you be the invigilator tomorrow? \x0d\ Example: Who else can go besides him? What about you? Can you do it? \x0d\ But are there contradictions at the beginning of each process? Is there a contradictory movement in the development process of everything from beginning to end? \x0d\ C, some imperative sentences that express euphemistic tone can also use question marks at the end of the sentence. \x0d\ Example: Would you please keep your voice down? \x0d\ D, although some sentences contain interrogative words (who, what, how, etc. ), they are not really asking questions, but expressing a declarative tone, so use a period. \x0d\ Example: No one knows who he is. I don't know who he will meet at the railway station. \x0d\ May I have her first and last name, please? \x0d\ 3, exclamation point (! At the end of the sentence, it means a pause of strong feelings. \x0d\ A, indicating a pause at the end of an exclamatory sentence. Exodus: Sing for this glorious victory! \x0d\ B, strong tone, strong imperative sentences, rhetorical questions also use exclamation points. \x0d\ Example: Sister Xianglin, please stay! \x0d\ Example: Xiao Wang, come quickly! Come on! \x0d\ Example: No one sings so touching! \x0d\ Example: How can you talk so ugly! Sentences with two moods, such as \x0d\ C, interrogative mood and exclamatory mood, usually choose a suitable point according to which basic sentence pattern the sentence belongs to and where the sentence is used. \x0d\ Example: This matter is too difficult. What should I do? \x0d\ Example: Let's go, there's nothing to hesitate about! \x0d\ 2. Points in the sentence: comma, pause, semicolon, colon. \x0d\ 1。 Comma: Comma is the focus of the dot in the sentence. In a single sentence, commas are mainly used in the following seven situations. \x0d\ (1) indicates a general pause in a sentence. \x0d\ Example: China has always been closed to the outside world. No one else is allowed to come unless you go yourself. \x0d\ (2) Between the general components of simple sentences-between the subject and the predicate, between the verb and the object and the complement, between the attribute, the adverbial and the head, there is generally no need for points. Commas should be used between these components in the following cases. \x0d\ A Subject and predicate are special \x0d\ First of all, the subject (compound word as subject) and predicate are long, and commas are usually used between them. \x0d\ Example: This huge blow and unspeakable grief almost knocked Wu Jichang down. \x0d\ Second, although the subject is short, it should be emphasized that a comma should be used after the subject. \x0d\ Example: She is the only female champion in this competition. \x0d\ Third, the subject is followed by modal particles, which should be followed by commas. \x0d\ Example: You are still the same. \x0d\ Fourth, the predicate is a subject-predicate phrase, and sometimes there is a pause after the subject, so use a comma. \x0d\ Example: Your application was approved by the director. \x0d\ B Use commas in the middle of variant sentences. \x0d\ First, sentences with predicates. \x0d\ Example: Come out, you! \x0d\ Second, the sentence after the attribute. \x0d\ Example: The lotus pond is surrounded by many trees and lush. \x0d\ IV. Adverbial refers to the sentence before the subject. \x0d\ Example: In the blink of an eye, all four piles of firewood on the top of the mountain were ready. \x0d\ Example: Suddenly, the phone on my desk rang in a hurry. \x0d\ C The object is long, especially when the subject-predicate phrase or verb-object phrase is used as the object, a comma is often added in front of it. \x0d\ Example: I know you feel sorry for the blood of soldiers in China ... \ x0d \ Example: The first thing he does after getting up every morning is to play for half an hour to simplify Tai Ji Chuan. \x0d\ Example: The driver promised to send these college students to the railway station as soon as possible. \x0d\ (3), some compound reference phrases should be followed by commas or between components. Our monitor Sharla Cheung suddenly fell ill yesterday. \x0d\ Example: This is the general manager, our housekeeper. \x0d\ (4) Besides general components, there are independent components in the sentence. Use commas between these independent components and common components. \x0d\ Example: We including leading comrades are going to plant trees tomorrow. \x0d\ (5), commas are usually used between long coordinate words. \x0d\ Example: Political darkness, class contradictions and people's sufferings are fully reflected in his works. \x0d\ (6) Use commas between repeated words. \x0d\ Example: Water, water, I want to drink water. \x0d\ (7)。 A comma can be used after the turning conjunction to highlight the meaning of the turning point. \x0d\ Example: I am not in good health, but I am much better than before. \x0d\ (8) and pause indicate pauses between words, but when words are used as juxtaposition of sentence predicates and complements, commas are used instead of pauses. For example, if you want to make continuous progress, you should be literate. \x0d\ Example: Civilization is the product of the development of the times, the result of historical progress and the crystallization of human wisdom. \x0d\ Example: What you said is really enjoyable. It touches the heart, inspires the fighting spirit and makes the bullfight resound through the sky. \x0d\ (9) Nouns with modal particles such as "ya", "ah" and "na" become short sentences. Use commas instead of pauses. \x0d\ Example: There are many flowers in the garden, such as begonia, roses and Milan ... They are colorful and attractive. \x0d\ In compound sentences, commas are mainly used in the following two situations. \x0d\ (1) commas are used between clauses, except sometimes semicolons. \x0d\ Example: Although I knew it was leap soil at first sight, it was not my memory. \x0d\ (2) There must be several related words. \x0d\ Example: Although Zu Chongzhi refuted Dai Faxing's fallacy, his Da Ming Li was shelved. \x0d\2, pause \x0d\ pause are also used between coordinate words, but these words are shorter than those separated by commas. It represents the smallest pause. \x0d\ Example: He quoted legends, folk songs and ancient poems. \x0d\ When using pause, you should pay attention to the following eight points. \x0d\ (1) If there are conjunctions "and" or "or" or "in the coordinate words, there is no need to pause. ""and "conjunctions are generally used between the last two items of multi-coordinate words. \x0d\ Example: China has made great progress in science, culture, literature and art, health, education, press and publication, etc. \x0d\ (2), some coordinate words don't pause or pause very little, and there is no ambiguity, so there is no need to use pause in the middle. \x0d\ Example: How sad and helpless this is in my mother's heart! \x0d\ Others such as Industry and Agriculture, Chinese and Foreign Journalists and A, B, C and D are all like this. \x0d\ (3) Don't use pauses between incongruous words. \x0d\ Example: My family lives in Hepingli, Chaoyang District, Beijing. Before and after this pause, there is a possessive relationship rather than a parallel relationship, and there is no pause in the middle. You shouldn't use pauses. \x0d\ (4) If there are only two coordinate words, there is generally no pause, but conjunctions such as "and" and "are used. \x0d\ Example: Lao Liu is ill. Xiao Zhang sent him snacks and fruits yesterday. \x0d\ (5) If you want to emphasize short coordinate words, use commas instead of pause between these coordinate words. \x0d\ Example: In this interview, you must bring three things: a pen, a tape recorder and a camera. \x0d\ (6) Two adjacent numbers (one, two, three ... nine) are used together to indicate that there is no pause. If it is a number ellipsis, you should use pause. \x0d\ Example: three or four meters, three or five days, fifteen days, sixteen meals, seven or eight meals \x0d\ Example: The full text is divided into four parts, and the second and third parts are the main parts. \x0d\ 3: Semicolons \x0d\ You can use semicolons and commas between clauses in complex sentences, but semicolons are commonly used between parallel clauses. It indicates a pause greater than a comma. Semicolons are only used in complex sentences, not single sentences. If commas are used in clauses other than coordinate clauses in complex sentences, semicolons are usually used between clauses. The function of semicolon is mainly to make the structure level between clauses clear. \x0d\ Example: If you do it, you must * want to give guidance; I want to do it to prove it. \x0d\ Example: The fragrance of beans and wheat on both sides of the river and aquatic plants at the bottom of the river is mixed with water vapor and blown on the face; The moonlight is hazy in the steam. \x0d\ Note: Single sentence parallelism requires momentum. Commas are generally used instead of semicolons. \x0d\ Example: Treat comrades as warm as spring, work as hot as summer, individuals as autumn wind sweeps away leaves, and enemies as cruel as winter. \x0d\ 4。 Colon: The basic function of colon is to prompt the following content and summarize the above content. It means a big pause. \ x0d \ below prompt: \x0d\ (1) is used under the address forms at the beginning of letters and speeches, which means to attract the attention of the recipients and listeners. \x0d\ (2) There is a word after "so-and-so", which means there are quotation marks behind it. \x0d\ (3) is used at the end of suggestive words, indicating that there is something to say later. \x0d\ Example: History tells us more than once that when the society changes rapidly, new things are constantly emerging, old relationships are constantly changing, and languages are also impacted and changed. \x0d\ Example: As I have already said, I am never afraid to guess China people with the worst malice. \x0d\ (4) is used after a general sentence to indicate that it should be explained separately. Or the word before the colon leads to the word after it. \x0d\ Example: We passed three stone workshops in succession: Tianmen, where Confucius boarded the ship, and Riling. \x0d\ (5) indicates that there are supplementary notes or explanatory remarks behind it. \x0d\ Example: It's just that I always think that there is no spring and autumn: late winter and early summer are connected, and summer just goes to winter and starts again. \x0d\ (6) After emphasizing verbs, use objects to attract readers' attention. Commonly used verbs are: think, say, ask, yes, remember, think, prove, announce, point out, and the object is often long or complicated. \x0d\ Example: I think: I hope it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. \x0d\ Example: Facts have proved that your point of view is completely correct. \x0d\ (7) Summarize the above, finish the sub-items or tell from several aspects, and use a colon to indicate that there is a summary sentence behind it. \x0d\ Example: Teachers love students, and students respect teachers: the relationship between teachers and students is very harmonious. \x0d\ It should be noted that \x0d\ (1) colon is a point in the sentence. Don't use colons without hints and big pauses (even if verbs such as "think" and "say" appear on them). \x0d\ Example: Teacher Hua criticized him for not respecting classroom discipline. (The colon is not suggestive and should be deleted. ) \x0d\ Example: I think this poem is very good. (No colon, use it correctly) \x0d\ (2) Colons are usually managed to the end of sentences. If you need extension, you should take care of a few words or a paragraph, which is usually expressed by ordinal numbers or quotation marks. \x0d\ Example: This dictionary has been revised as follows: 1. More than 1000 words were added; Second, the exact location under the definition is modified. Example: My sister wrote, "It's very hot in Shanghai recently. Mom has moved into a new house. " \x0d\ (3) "So-and-so" and the like are put in front of the quoted words with colons, and in the middle or behind the quoted words without colons. \x0d\ Example: Miss Li said, "Miss Wang will take care of her when I leave. \ \x0d\ Example: "Thank you," said Miss Li. "Is the bus coming soon?" \x0d\ Example: "What time is it, Miss Li?" Fan Fuxi asked. \x0d\ (4) Appellations with strong feelings and loud cries are not followed by colons, but by exclamation marks; Generally speaking, there is no colon after the address forms that belong to mutual conversation, but a comma. \x0d\ Example: Comrades! You have worked hard! \x0d\ Example: Gao, here is your ticket. \x0d\ (5) Don't use two colons in a sentence. \x0d\ Example: Xiao Liu wrote that there have been more than three phenomena in rural areas recently: more small businesses, more household appliances and more motorcyclists. \x0d\ This sentence is changed to: Xiao Liu wrote that there have been some phenomena in rural areas recently, which can be summarized into three types: many small enterprises, many users of household appliances and many motorcyclists.
