8) 减少of原则
汉译英中，一出现“…的”许多学生立马想到of…的架构，这种思维模式主要是受到了所属关系的影响。of在英语当中主要是所属关系，而“…的”不仅有所属关系，而且有包含关系等，因此我们在翻译中要看清句子的主主语——真正意义上的主语，而不必选择句子的次主语——语法上的主语。比如在第一个例子中，主主语是“楼”，而次主语才是“质量”，因此如把此句翻成The quality of the building is poor. 虽然也没有错，在考试中也不一定会扣分，但还是显得比较业余。另外在最后一个例子中，译文如译成The development of our relations has made us not only close fiends but also brothers，就显得特别地功利，好像表示我们关系的发展使我们成为兄弟了，而不是我们的关系。总而言之，我们并不是要刻意地减少of架构，而是把一些非定语关系的of架构转化为其它成分。

9) 名词词组与分句互译原则
汉语中的两大成分地位较低，分别是宾语和定语。在英译汉中，较长的宾语从句常常会转化为名词词组，比如在第一个例句中的“how”如果翻译为“如何化去税款”这个宾语从句，在汉语中就显得不伦不类，所有一些5W1H的疑问词基本上都有可能转化为名词，如when（时间），where（地点），who（人选），why（原因）。此外，对于修饰语较多的名词性短语，汉语也不喜欢用定语进行堆砌，而偏向用简单的主谓短语，如第二个例子中把“the most skeptical Gates”翻译成“一个持怀疑态度的盖茨”，就不如变成主谓短语“盖茨对此持怀疑态度”。
