An objective of organizing a research paper is to allow people to read your work selectively. When I research a topic, I may be interested in

15、 just the methods, a specific result, the interpretation, or perhaps I just want to see a summary of the paper to determine if it is relevant to my study. For most studies, a proper research report includes the following sections, submitted in the order listed, each section to start on a new page. S

16、ome journals request a summary to be placed at the end of the discussion. Some techniques articles include an appendix with equations, formulas, calculations, etc. Some journals deviate from the format, such as by combining results and discussion, or combining everything but the title, abstract, and

17、 literature as is done in the journal Science. Your reports will adhere to the standard format. And I am going to go through some of the basic sections of research papers to give you a sense of what a standard research paper is. First of all, style.1In all sections of your paper, use paragraphs to s

18、eparate each important point except for the abstract, and present your points in logical order. Use present tense to report background that is already established. For example, “the grass is green.“2Always use past tense to describe results of a specific experiment, especially your own. For example,

19、 “When weed killer was applied, the grass was brown.“ Remember present tense for background, and past tense for results. Second, title page. Select an informative title, such as “Role of temperature in determination of the rate of development of Xenopus larvae.“ A title such as “Biology lab“ is not

20、informative.3Include the name(s)and address(es)of all authors, and date submitted. Next, abstract.4Summarize the study, focusing on the results and major conclusions, including relevant quantitative data. It must be a single paragraph, and concise. It should stand on its own, therefore do not refer

21、to any other part of the report, such as a figure or table. Avoid long sections of introductory or explanatory material. As a summary of work done, it is written in past tense. 5Fourthly, introduction Introduce the rationale behind the study, including The overall question and its relevance to scien

22、ce Suitability of the experimental model to the overall question Experimental design and specific hypothesis or objective Significance of the anticipated results to the overall question Include appropriate background information, but please do not write everything you know about the subject. 6Fifthl

23、y, methods and materials. The purpose of this section is to document all of your procedures so that another scientist could reproduce all or part of your work. It is not designed to be a set of instructions.7As awkward as it may seem, it is standard practice to report methods and materials in past t

24、ense, third person passive. Your laboratory notebook should contain all of the details of everything you do in lab, plus any additional information needed in order to complete this section. While it is tempting to report methods in chronological order in a narrative form, it is usually more effectiv

25、e to present them under headings devoted to specific procedures or groups of procedures. Some examples of separate headings are “sources of materials,“ “experiment procedures“, “think aloud protocol,“ and “statistical methods.“ Try to be succinct without sacrificing essential information. Omit any b

26、ackground information or comments. If you must explain why a particular procedure was chosen, do so in the discussion.8Omit information that is irrelevant to a third party. For example, no third party cares what color ice bucket you used, or which individual logged in the data. Report how procedures

27、 were done, not how they were specifically performed on a particular day. Now, about results.9Raw data are never included in a research paper.10Analyze your data, then present the analyzed or converted data in the form of a figure, table, or in narrative form. Present the same data only once in the

28、most effective manner. By presenting converted data, you make your point succinctly and clearly.11Figures are preferable to tables, and tables are preferable to straight text. However, there are times when a figure is inappropriate, or the data come across more clearly if described in narrative form

29、. To give your results continuity, describe the relationship of each section of converted data to the overall study. All converted data go into the body of the report, after the methods and before the discussion. Do not stick graphs or other data onto the back of the report just because you printed

30、or prepared them separately.12Do not draw conclusions in the results section. Reserve data interpretation for the discussion. NO. 7, discussion. Interpret your data in the discussion. Decide if each hypothesis is supported, rejected, or if you cannot make a decision with confidence. Do not simply di

31、smiss a study or part of a study as “inconclusive.“ Make what conclusions you can, then suggest how the experiment must be modified in order to properly test the hypothesis(es). Explain all of your observations as much as possible, focusing on mechanisms. When you refer to information, distinguish d

32、ata generated by your own studies from published information or from information obtained from other students. Decide if the experimental design adequately addressed the hypothesis, and whether or not it was properly controlled. One experiment will not answer an overall question, so keep the big pic

33、ture in mind, where do you go next? The best studies open up new avenues of research.13What questions remain? Did the study lead you to any new questions? Try to think up a new hypothesis and briefly suggest new experiments to further address the main question. Be creative, and dont be afraid to spe

34、culate. Finally, literature cited.14List all literature cited in your report, in alphabetical order, by first author.15In a proper research paper, only primary literature is used. That is original research articles authored by the original investigators. Some of your reports may not require referenc

35、es, and if that is the case simply state “no references were consulted.“ OK. I think I have covered the basic elements of writing a research report. I am sure you will be able to submit a standard and well-structured one in due course. 【知识模块】 听力填空 1 【正确答案】 paragraphs 【试题解析】 本题考查撰写研究报告的第一点 “文体风格 ”。讲座

Welcome all of you to this orientation lecture series. With school deadl

42、ines fast approaching, many college students find themselves stressed to the limit with a barrage of papers to finish in a matter of days. Although there are always those students who seem to be able to pump out paper after paper with seemingly no problem, most will find themselves hard-pressed to w

43、rite something that a professor will really appreciate. Stop worrying. Writing a great paper is all about the formula and content, not some magical talent that few are born with. The process can be broken down into 8 simple steps. Follow these steps, and youll have a great paper every time. 1. Start

44、 as soon as possible. Ideally, a student would receive an assignment and be given a number of weeks with which to write it. As most college students know, however, this is rarely, if ever, the case. Many times professors will assign papers with a weeks notice. First, dont panic. Even if you only hav

45、e a week, that is plenty of time to write a high-quality term paper.1College students are masters of procrastination, and the most important thing to remember is that the sooner you begin, the sooner itll be done, and the process is much less painless on your time than, say, pulling an all-nighter a

46、nd trying to shove some facts onto a page. 2.2Learn to research smartly. Students must make the very best use of their time, so the number of hours spent researching have to be reduced.3Read the first line of a paragraph. If it sounds interesting and useful, keep reading. If not, move on to the next

47、 paragraph. Scholarly papers are organized with a thesis statement being written first and supported later. If you think that you can use the information, write it down on a note card. This makes cross-referencing and source documenting much easier later. Also, it makes for a well-organized paper. 3

48、.4Organize topics. Now that you have all of your note cards ready to organize, the process will start to move more quickly.5Place your note cards out in order of importance. A paper should be written with the most important information given first, going down the line to your weakest statement last. Some would argue that the best information should be given last, but professors tend to disagree. Many professors will place judgment on a paper before theyre even
