Some words of a sentence can be left out while the meaning can still be understood.1. 为避免重复而进行的省略
当一个句子中有两个或更多的相同的词、短语出现时，其中的第一个须保留，其余的往往省略，以避免重复、使句子简练。尤其要注意的情况是: 当时间状语从句、地点状语从句、方式状语从句、让步状语从句、条件状语从句等状语从句中的主语与主句的主语一致并含有be时，往往将该状语从句中的主语和be一起省略。句子中常可省略的成分如下：
1) 省掉主语。如：
Thank you for your help.
See you tomorrow.
2) 省掉谓语动词。如：
Some of us study Russian, others English.

He got up earlier than I today. (others后省掉study) (前面省掉主语I)(前面省掉主语I)(I后省掉got up)3) 省掉系动词。
e.g. Ma Lin is a bus driver, his wife a
conductor.
Gold is more expensive than silver. (his wife后省掉is) (silver后省掉is)4) 同时省掉句子的几个成分。
e.g. In winter it is colder in Beijing than in Guangzhou.
Has he gone or not? (= Has he gone or has he not gone?) (than后省略it is) — When did you read the play?
— Long ago.
— Have you ever been to Xinjiang?
— Never. (= I have never been there.) (= I read it long ago.) ▲ 在if，when，though，as，as if等连词引导的从句中，如果主从句的主语一致，又含有be动词时，常把从句中的主语和be动词省略。
e.g. When you do this exercise, make changes in the sentence structure when necessary. (when后省掉it is) He is very good at painting, though
very young.
The boy looked as if afraid of nothing. (= though he is very young) (= as if he were afraid of nothing) ▲ 在下面的句子中，动词不定式to的后面省去了动词原形及其以后的部分。
e.g. You may go with them if you want to.
— Will you be able to come?
— I’d love to. But I’m busy. (to后省去go with them) (to后省掉come)e.g. He is twelve years old. 他十二岁。
I walked for ten miles. 我走了十英里路。 2. 语法上允许的省略。有些成分的被省略是出于语法上的允许，以显得表述更为简明。He is twelve.I walked ten miles.3. 习惯用法上允许的省略。有些省略句的情况是出于习惯用法，尤其是在口语中。例如在问句中be常常省略，有时连主语一起省略:
e.g. Very easy? 很简单吗？
Why not? 为什么不？4. 省略语还经常出现在新闻标题或使用
说明中。
