　　好，看完標題，咱們來看一下詳細該若何動手去寫這篇文章，應當從哪幾個點來展示作者的用意。

　　1. 用詞：

　　a) The descriptive words used inthis sentence add visual intensity, evoking the wonder of the night sky. 作者是若何應用辭匯來凸起文章的畫面感。

　　b) The writer chooses his wordscarefully in this paragraph in order to shape readers’ perceptions and bolsterhis claims. For example, he argues that we are using too much light when lessis needed by referring to light being “wasted.” He also suggests how easily theproblem of light pollution might be addressed, using “simply” to describe what“other communities” are doing. 作者是若何選取辭匯來增強本身的論證，同時說服讀者信任本身的概念。

　　2. 論據：The writer uses this statistic as evidence to inform his subsequent claimthat we “are rapidly losing night’s natural darkness. 作者是若何應用數據作為論據引出下面他的概念的。

　　3. 若何睜開文章：The writer continues to draw ?on evidence from the authorities citedabove. He uses this evidence to inform his subsequent point ?that “whether wework at night or simply take our . . . smartphones to bed, there isn’t a placefor this much artificial light in our lives.” 作者是若何睜開論證，使得整篇文章連為一體，團體聯會領悟。

　　4. 若何應用論據支撐文章：The presentation of facts and evidence supports the claim that follows atthe end of the paragraph that “without darkness, Earth’s ecology wouldcollapse.” 作者若何應用適合和相幹的論據來支撐本身的概念。

　　5. 修辭手段：

　　a) The writer compares lightpollution to the effects of a “bulldozer,” a machine that can be used to ravageland. This imagery dramatizes the destructive potential of light pollution.
