(翻译) 2专业英语论文的写作方法

First vs. Third Person:IF there is one stylistic area where

scientific

disciplines

and

journals

vary

widely,

it

is

the

use of first vs. third person constructions.

若某期刊包 含了各学科且期刊风格多样，那么论文既

可用第一人称也可用第三人称。

Some

disciplines

and

their

journals

have

moved

away

from

a

very

strict

adherence

to

the

third

person

construction,and permit limited use of the first person in

published papers.

某些学科及其期刊不再严格使用第一人称，即允许在

发表的论文中少量的使用第一人称。

Other

disciplines,especially

the

biomedical

fields,

still

prefer the third person constrcution. < /p>

其它的一些学科，尤其是生物医学领域，仍坚持使用

第三人称。< /p>

Limit our use of first person construction

我们要限制性的使用第一人称。

(“i.e.,”I

(or

we)

undertook

this

study……):

usually

it

is

most

acceptable

in

the

Introduction

and

Discussion

sections, and then only to a limited

exte nt.

（即，我（或我们）从事此研究）

：通常在引言

及讨论部分更易被接受，且也是在一定程度上的。

Use

first

person

in

the

methods

sparingly,

and avoid

its

use in the results.

在方法这节里也可少量的使用第一人称，而在结果这

节中避免使用。

Use Active Verbs:Use active verbs whenever

Possible

；

writing that overly uses passive

verbs(is,was,has,have,had)is deadly to read and

almost always results in more words than necessary

to say the same thing.

使用主动动 词：尽可能的使用主动动词；过量的使用

被动动词会是论文晦涩，而且几乎往往叙述同一 件事

用了更多的词。

The clarity and effectiveness of your writing

will improve dramatically as you increase the use

of the active voice.

当你加大使用主动语态的频率时，

所写论文将更清晰、

更简洁。

Other specific comments on style are also

included for each section of the paper.

关于论文文体方面的其它具体的评述也都包含在它的

每节中。< /p>

Remember:precise

voice,brevity.

word

use,past

tense,active

记住：用词准确，用过去时，用主动语态且用词要简

洁。

References to the research findings of others

are an integral component of any research

paper.

参考其他人的研究结 果在任何科研论文中都必不

可少。

The usual practice is to summarize the

finding or other information in your own words

and then cite the sourse.

通常 的做法是用你自己的话概括他的研究结果及

其他信息并说明出处。

Any ideas or other information that are not your own

must

be

substantiated

by a

reference

that

is cited

in

the

text.

任何不是你自己的想法和内容都必须用附在文中< /p>

的参考文献所证明。

As

a

rule,in

research

papers,direct

quotation

and

footnoting

are

not

practiced-simply

restate

the

autho

r′s

ideas

or

findings

in

your

own

words

and

provide

a
