1.0 前言的概念和作用
????????前言又叫緒論。寫前言的目的是向讀者交代本研究的來龍去脈，其作用在于喚起讀者的注意,使讀者對論文先有一個總體的了解。
2.0 前言的主要內(nèi)容
- ①研究的目的，重要性以及研究意義
- ②前人工作的客觀評述(解決了哪些問題)
- ③尚待解決的問題(本文的創(chuàng)新點，即本文要解決的問題)
- ④本文采用的基本方法和假設(shè)(必須不含糊地說明)
- ⑤主體中各部分的構(gòu)成(僅供文章較長時用)
漏斗形的引言的結(jié)構(gòu)較佳!
3.0 前言的時態(tài)要求
????????背景資料中的句子通常敘述有關(guān)某些現(xiàn)象或某個研究領(lǐng)域的普遍事實，這些普遍事實不受時間的影響，所以句子中的主要動詞應(yīng)該使用一般現(xiàn)在時態(tài)。
A few analytical models and simulations for conventional cylindrical heat pipemainly concentrate on the startup operation involving liquid metal working liquids.
????????若在背景資料中指出作者專業(yè)領(lǐng)域里最近發(fā)生的某種趨勢,或最近發(fā)生的某個事件，則使用現(xiàn)在完成時態(tài)。
Various approaches such as modular technique and object oriented programming?have been employed as programming tools.
4.0 撰寫前言的步驟
- 步驟一:背景資料;
- 步驟二:文獻(xiàn)回顧;
- 步驟三:指出問題;
- 步驟四:作者的研究目的或研究活動;
- 步驟五:指出本研究工作的理論價值或應(yīng)用價值;
- 步驟六:說明本研究論文的組織結(jié)構(gòu);以便使讀者獲知整個論文的組織結(jié)構(gòu);或在某些專業(yè)領(lǐng)域，由于不同的研究論文有各自的組織結(jié)構(gòu)，所以也常常采用該步驟。
4.1 背景資料
????????引言一開始，先介紹作者的研究領(lǐng)域，敘述有關(guān)該研究領(lǐng)域的一般信息，并針對研究論文將要探討的問題或現(xiàn)象提供背景知識。背景資料寫作順序,可以采用一種約定俗成的方法，即:
- >先指出和論文內(nèi)容所屬研究領(lǐng)域有關(guān)的一般事實;
- >接著轉(zhuǎn)到此大研究領(lǐng)域中的一個次研究領(lǐng)域，并指出該次領(lǐng)域中某些特定的事實;
- >最后應(yīng)該把焦點轉(zhuǎn)到該次領(lǐng)域中的論文所探討的問題有密切關(guān)系的更狹窄的主題，并針對次主題再指出某些事實。
4.2 文獻(xiàn)回顧
????????介紹并評論其他學(xué)者對該問題或現(xiàn)象曾經(jīng)發(fā)表的相關(guān)研究。作者要進(jìn)一步說明自己研究工作的背景及動機(jī)，既要表示自己對同一研究領(lǐng)域的相關(guān)研究十分熟悉，也要反映自己的研究工作和這些學(xué)者的研究工作之間的關(guān)系。文獻(xiàn)回顧的組織形式
- 類型1:依照參考文獻(xiàn)的主題與作者研究論文關(guān)系的密切程度排列資料，先提到比較不密切的參考資料，然后再引述最密切的資料。
- 類型2:依照所要討論的參考資料的不同類別排列參考文獻(xiàn)。當(dāng)作者有很多參考資料需要討論時，常采用這種形式。
?
4.3 提出問題
????????在該步驟中，為了說明自己的研究動機(jī)，作者需指出過去相關(guān)研究中尚未處理或解決的問題,或所派生出的新問題，使讀者對作者的研究目的有一個認(rèn)識基礎(chǔ)。該步驟通常只需要一兩個句子表達(dá),用于指出下列四個項目的其中一項:
- 1、以前的學(xué)者處理得不夠完善或尚未研究的重要題目:
- 2、過去的研究所派生并值得探討的新問題;
- 3、以前的學(xué)者曾經(jīng)提出兩個或兩個以上互不相容的觀點或理論，為了解決這些互為差異的觀點或理論之間的沖突，必須開展進(jìn)一步的研究;
- 4、過去的研究自然可以擴(kuò)展到新領(lǐng)域或新題目,或者以前曾提出的方法或技術(shù)可得到改善或延伸到新的應(yīng)用范圍。
舉例:
????????The medium-voltage vacuum circuit breaker is found more and more diverse applications in electrical distribution systems. The circuit breaker is then a key partof the system and is important in the successful operation of the system.Statistically most failures can be traced to the mode of operation(介紹背景資料)[1]. Thus, considerable attention has been focused on the design, maintenance andon-line condition monitoring of circuit breakers [2-4]. When breaking and closinga short-circuit current, the electrodynamic force on the contacts has a considerable influence on the mechanical characteristics of the circuit breaker [5](進(jìn)行文獻(xiàn)回顧). However. there are no reports in the literature on the influence of the electrodynamic force on the mechanical characteristics of medium-voltage vacuumcircuit breakers (however說明文獻(xiàn)回顧已結(jié)束，使讀者的注意力從其他的研究轉(zhuǎn)到論文作者自己的研究上)....... We intend of focus on the influence of theelectrodynamic force on the mechanical characteristics of a medium-voltage circuitbreaker. ........(說明論文作者的研究目的與研究活動)
提出問題的基本句型
| 研究主題 | 轉(zhuǎn)折副詞 | 指出過去研究的不足 |
| However | few studies have been done on few studies have been reported on few studies have been published on few researchers have studied little research has been devoted to little attention has been paid to little information has been?published concerning little literature is available on there is little literature available on little is known about | High voltage circuit breaker ? |
| although while | much research has been devoted to A, much work has been done on A, many studies have been publishedconcerning A. many researchers have investigated A. much literature is available on A. | little research has beendone on B. little attention has beenpaid to B. little information isavailable on B. little work has beenpublished on B. few researchers havestudied B. few studies haveinvestigated B. |

4.4 研究目的
論文導(dǎo)向舉例
- The purpose/aim/objective of this paper/report/thesis is to..........
- The present paper/report/thesis reports / presents / describesdiscusses / proposes / describes ..............
- (句子中用到purpose/aim/objective等詞，只能用一般現(xiàn)在時態(tài)。)
- In this paper, we explore the possibility of putting vents in the ceilingof the third floor to allow hot air to rise.............(以we作為主語)
- In this paper,an accurate model for coupled heat and moisturetransfer in building envelopes an indoor air is developed.(被動語態(tài))
- This paper will propose/present/evaluate/discuss a newmethod .........(一般將來時)
?
研究導(dǎo)向舉例
- The purpose/aim/objective of the experiment/study/research (reported)here was to ..........(一般過去時)
- In the research described here/this study/the present investigation/thisresearch/the experiments reported here, we determined new method forreducing variance in common case.(一般過去時)
?
4.5 研究價值
????????科技論文很少直接宣傳自己的研究成果能完全解決某個問題,而用謙虛的口吻或試探性的態(tài)度來指出自己研究的價值。
????????因此在步驟四和步驟五中常用語氣助詞來表述論文作者的謙虛態(tài)度。
- will表示論文作者絲毫不懷疑句子的內(nèi)容，確定程度最高。
The results of this experiment will provide further data conserving theperformance of the novel heat pipe/ejectors cooler.
- would在某些條件下很確定，即只要條件被滿足，確定性很高。
If a mathematical model for a flat plate heat pipe for a startup operation wasdeveloped, the transient heat transfer across the heat pipe walls and wicks and thetemperature distributions in the heat pipe would be predicted.
- should確定性較高，但是不能完全確定。
The modification should improve the performance of the product, but it has notyet been tested in practice.
- may句子所表達(dá)的事情有可能發(fā)生,但作者不確定是否發(fā)生。
The results of this study may be useful to researchers attempting to gain moreunderstanding of the behavior of the osmotic flow.
- might句子所表達(dá)的事情有可能發(fā)生，但比較不確定。
These data might help to clarify whether the steady state assumption is valid.
- could作者更不確定句子所表達(dá)的事情是否會發(fā)生。
Our findings could be beneficial to researchers in better understanding theadverse health effects of long-term exposure to whole body vibration.
?
4.6 組織結(jié)構(gòu)
????????位于引言的結(jié)尾處。建議論文作者參閱自己擬投稿的專業(yè)期刊上發(fā)表的一些論文，以確定自己論文的導(dǎo)論中是否應(yīng)包含步驟六。
????????若步驟六是一個獨立的段落，則該段落的第一個句子通常寫為:
- The organization of the paper is as follows.
- This paper is organized as follows.
- The structure of the paper is as follows.
- The paper is organized into the following sections.
- The organization of the rest of the paper is as follows.
?
????????通常使用一般現(xiàn)在時態(tài)，主動語態(tài)或被動語態(tài)均可。如:
- In Section 2, we present a general derivation of the method for a generic CSP,based on information analysis.
- Section 4 contains a description of the numerical explorations and the test beds, aswell as a presentation and a discussion of the results.
- The relevant procedure and theoretical analysis are presented in detail in Section 2.Finally., related work is summarized in Section 5, while conclusions and work-in-progress are reported in Section 6.
?
????????如果采用被動語態(tài),那么應(yīng)避免出現(xiàn)不平衡的句子，即應(yīng)避免出現(xiàn)句首的主語特別長,而句末的動詞謂語很短，如:
- In Section 2, a nonlinear theoretical approach that can provide a clear dynamical insight of how nonlinearity plays a role in such a flow system is presented.
這種不自然的句子應(yīng)改為:
- In Section 2, a nonlinear theoretical approach is presented that can provide a clear dynamical insight of how nonlinearity plays a role in such a flow systcm.
或改為:
- Section 2 presents a nonlinear theoretical approach that can provide a clear dynamical insight of how nonlinearity plays a role in such a flow system.
