Rewrite for Clarity, Not Style
Added 2026-11-02
Make it understandable on the first pass before worrying about how it sounds.
Here is a paragraph. Rewrite only for clarity: 1) split any sentence with more than two clauses; 2) replace ambiguous "this" and "it" with the actual noun; 3) turn nominalisations back into verbs; 4) mark where the original made you reread; 5) give the rewritten version without changing tone or vocabulary style. Do not make it fancier.

How to use
清晰是及格线，风格是加分项；先别混在一起改。
Try tweaking it
- Ask for three openings in different tones, then pick one.
- Replace "make it better" with concrete limits: length, reader, facts to keep.
What you should get
- A publishable draft, not an outline
- A short changelog: what changed and why
Common mistakes
- Letting it guess the facts, so plausible-looking sources get invented.
- Dumping the whole text with just "polish it" — the result still has no point.
How to check the output
- The conclusion comes first; deleting the opening paragraph does not break it.
- Every fact, number and quote traces back to the source text.
Where it works
- Good for: turning a rambling draft into a conclusion-first, shorter version.
- Watch out: keep sources and figures verbatim — do not let it invent citations.
