11、5 material (分数:60.00)填空项 1:_ (正确答案:the introductory section)解析: the introductory section 听力原文 How to Write a ThesisToday, I will talk about the most important parts of thesis writing. That is, introduction, methods, results and discussion. First, it“s the introduction part. You can“t write a good in
12、troduction until you know what the body of the paper says. Consider writing the introductory section after you have completed the rest of the paper, rather than before. Be sure to include a hook at the beginning of the introduction. This is a statement of something sufficiently interesting to motiva
13、te your reader to read the rest of the paper, it is an important and interesting scientific problem that your paper either solves or addresses. You should draw the reader in and make them want to read the rest of the paper. The next paragraphs in the introduction should cite previous research in thi
14、s area. It should cite those who had the idea or ideas first, and should also cite those who have done the most recent and relevant work. You should then go on to explain why more work is necessary. What else belongs in the introductory section of your paper? First, it“s a statement of the goal of t
15、he paper. That is why the study was undertaken, or why the paper was written. Do not repeat the abstract. Second, you should present sufficient background information to allow the reader to understand the context and significance of the question you are trying to address. Third, you“d better give a
16、proper acknowledgement of the previous work on which you are building. Sufficient references such that a reader could, by going to the library, achieve a sophisticated understanding of the context and significance of the question. Fourth, the introduction should be focused on the thesis questions. A
17、ll cited work should be directly relevant to the goals of the thesis. This is not a place to summarize everything you have ever read on a subject. Fifth, explain the scope of your work, what will and will not be included? Sixth, you may draw a verbal “road map“ or verbal “table of contents“ guiding
18、the reader to what lies ahead. Seventh, make it obvious where introductory material ends and your contribution begins. Remember that this is not a review paper. We are looking for original work and analysis by you. Break up the introduction section into logical segments by using subheads. The follow
19、ing important part is the method part. This section Should contain information to allow the reader to assess the believability of your results and information needed by another researcher to replicate your experiment. Hence you should describe clearly your materials, procedure, theories, and calcula
20、tions, technique, equipment, calibration plots. Besides, this section also includes limitations, assumptions, and range of validity, as well as description of your analytical methods, including reference to any specialized statistical software. Remember, citations in this section should be limited t
21、o data sources and references of where to find more complete descriptions of procedures. Do not include descriptions of results. Next, I“d like to talk about the result part. The results are actual statements of observations, including statistics, tables and graphs. It should indicate information on
22、 range of variation and mention negative results as well as positive. Do not interpret results and save that for the discussion. Present sufficient details so that others can draw their own inferences and construct their own explanations. Break up your results into logical segments by using subheadi
23、ngs. And remember, key results should be stated in clear sentences at the beginning of paragraphs. Besides, describe the nature of the findings. Do not just tell the reader whether or not they are significant. Finally, it is the discussion part. This section should start with a few sentences that su
24、mmarize the most important results. The whole section should be a brief essay in itself and answer the following questions: First, what are the major patterns in the observations? Second, what are the relationships, trends and generalizations among the results? Third, what are the exceptions to thes
25、e patterns or generalizations? Fourth, what are the likely causes underlying these patterns resulting predictions? Fifth, is there agreement or disagreement with previous work? Sixth, interpret results in terms of background laid out in the introductionwhat is the relationship of the present results
26、 to the original question? Seventh, what is the implication of the present results for other unanswered questions in earth sciences, ecology, environmental policy, etc. Eighth, what are your hypotheses: There are usually several possible explanations for results. Be careful to consider all of these
27、rather than simply pushing your favorite one. If you can eliminate all but one, that is great, but often that is not possible with the data in hand. In that case you should give even treatment to the remaining possibilities, and try to indicate ways in which future work may lead to their discriminat
28、ion. Ninth, avoid jumping a currently fashionable point of view unless your results really do strongly support them. Tenth, what are the things we now know or understand that we didn“t know or understand before the present work? The final one is what the significance of the present results is. In ot
29、her words, why should we care? This section should be rich in references to similar work and background needed to interpret results. However, discussion section is often too long and wordy. Is there material that does not contribute to one of the elements I mentioned above? If so, this may be materi
30、al that you will want to consider deleting or moving. Remember to break up the section into logical segments by using subheads. Thesis writing is not an easy thing, because each part is important and they are so closely interrelated that you cannot neglect any of them. However, if you can grasp the
31、points I mentioned just now, you may find it much more controllable. I hope today“s lecture is helpful to you more or less. And next time I will talk about the problem of word choice in thesis writing. Thank you for your attention. 考点 本题设题点在祈使句处。 根据听力原文可知,建议在完成整篇论文后再写第一部分的介绍,故答案为 the introductory se

37、re finding comfort in a full-fledged home away from home. And here with more is Travelzoo editor Gabe Saglie. Good morning, Gabe. M: Good to see you. W: Zoo is a little bit of a fantasy.

41、l castle that sleeps 34 people on 20 acres for 7,000 dollars for the week comes out about 200 dollars per person for the entire week.

42、 you“re right next to World Disney, steps away from The Sea World and Universal Studios, this is a great value option for a family.

49、 service to you. But you have to do a little bit more homework on your own to guarantee that, first of all, you are protecting your investment.
