分析：“远程教育”应该是 distance learning 而不是 distant learning，此外，distance learning 已经包含了“网上”的概念，所以on the Internet 需要去掉。

还有一个例子：

The government seems oblivious to the public complain about its recent health care reform, which may add to the financial burden of impoverished families.

分析：这里 complain 是动词，名词形式应该是 complaint，此外，which may add to the financial burden of impoverished families 可以精简为 which may burden impoverished families. 整个句子可以改成：

The government seems oblivious to public complaints about its recent health care reform, which may burden impoverished families.

解决办法：减少使用不必要的形容词和副词，养成精简句子的习惯。

2.用词问题

出现这种问题的原因是写作者对单词的用法一知半解，想当然地套用单词的中文含义。比如：

The esteem for a good teacher could be jaw-dropping regionally.

分析：这里作者是想说“好老师受到了很大的尊敬”，但使用 jaw-dropping 一词并不合适。jaw-dropping 一般用来指事物的规模很大，令人吃惊（so large or good that it amazes you）。

句子可以改成：

People in some areas hold good teachers in high esteem.

又比如：

Fairly a number of undergraduates usually concern that the shortage in vocational competitiveness has its root in diploma, however, it’s actually a fallacy most of the time.
