1. 审稿人的关注点

n 好文章：想法好、表达好、语言好

n 对于会议论文，由于篇幅和审稿时间的限制，一篇文章以讨论一个方法、解决一个问题为好。

n 审稿人是志愿者，他们不一定与你来自同一领域，所以不要直接进入主题，而是要讲清楚问题的来龙去脉，如果审稿人在读你的文章时感到有收获，你的文章会因此得分

n 审稿人手头经常会积累很多论文待审，所以文章一定要简明易读

n 审稿的典型的顺序是：题目→作者→摘要→结论→图表→参考文献→引言，审稿人看参考文献经常是看他/她的论文是否被引用，至此，正文还没看，审稿人就已经有了是否收录的倾向性，后续的阅读只是为了找正面/负面的证据来支持他/她的决定。所以，要把所有重点在前面提到的几个环节中强有力地展示清楚，使得审稿人能够尽快正确理解你的论文的创新之处和贡献。

n 有一个很不好的做法，就是将摘要、导言里对方法的介绍和结论用同样的话进行表述，甚至互相拷贝。文章的摘要、介绍、结论，要在不同的细节层次上介绍你的方法、强调你的贡献。

n 文章末的“参考文献”要完整、相关性要强。当叙述到与本文相关的最新技术或不常用的技术时，一定要频繁地引用相关文献，不然审稿人有可能会误以为你把这些工作声明成你的贡献，最终对你的文章产生负面影响。

n “附录”不常有。如果细节特别长，放在正文中影响正常的阅读节奏，导致读者读完细节就已经忘记了前文，则可以放在附录里，当读者希望看细节时再参考这一部分。

2. 修改论文的技巧

n 第一稿写完后，给自己不要超过一天的休息时间，开始修改第二稿。

n 修改时，还是以逻辑为主，但对每一句话都要推敲一下，对abstract和正文中的关键语句要字斟句酌。

n 第二稿的修改极为关键，再往后就不会大改了。第二稿以后的修改，主要注重具体的字句，不会改变整体逻辑了。

n 投稿前，一定要整体读一遍，对个别词句略作改动。

n 记住：学术期刊一般不会因为具体的语法错误而拒绝一篇文章，但一定会因为逻辑混乱而拒绝一篇文章。用最简单的话表达最明白的意思，但一定要逻辑严谨！

n 请别人帮你改过的版本最好保留下来，多跟帮你改文章的人交流，了解他们做这些改动的原因。

n 现在很多字处理软件都提供拼写检查功能，对于软件提示可能出错的字，一定要仔细再检查。

n 要用自己最熟悉的、确定不会产生歧义的单词。

n 要避免“毫无疑问”（no doubt）、“绝对”（absolutely）、“显然”（obviously）这类绝对化的用词。

n 不要使用复杂的语句，要尽量简单明晰，便于读者理解。

n 要注意衔接过渡，选择正确的过渡词与联接词，还要注意转折，注意连贯性，避免行文跳跃。

n 尽量避免使用“most”来描述已证实的研究文献。如果你写“大部分研究者发现什么什么（most researchers findsuch-and-such）”实际上你用了统计学的表达，意思是你知道一半以上的研究者已经发现什么什么。如果对含有“大部分（most of…）”的句子要求你证实其数量你能做到吗？这就是该单词（most）所蕴含的意思。你可以使用“many”或 “several” 或“a number of”来代替。

n Research（研究）是一个集合名词，一般理解为包括大量的研究工作。因此，它实际上不应该使用复数形式，你可以使用“studies”或“investigations”或其他相似词来代替。

n 缩写和首字母缩写： 在第一次使用时，对一个缩写或首字母缩写要进行定义（即写出全称），此后出现即一致使用该缩写。

n 罗马数字或数字单词：一般对10或10以上的数字采用罗马数字表示；而个位数一般采用数字单词表示（如“one” 、“six”）。

3. 文章架构

1.0 topic

 n 好的题目有两个要素。首先，不能有歧义，要能让审稿人正确联想出文章做了什么。

n 其次，要便于记忆，否则读者日后要写论文时，你的论文早已经不知丢在何处，如果有容易记忆的题目，他会优先想到你的文章。要做到这点，题目要短、要有关键的字眼。一定要有一个吸引人的标题，不要过于中立。如“New Insights into ..”比起“Sulfur Poisoning Behaviorof ....”要档次高很多。

1.1 abstract

“摘要”就是给出论文的概况，吸引读者。、实验结果如何、

1) 阐述问题

2) 总结自己的解决方案/本文工作，在这里要给一些适当的细节，简略描述你的方法是如何实现的、有哪些组成部分（components）

3) 总结方案结果/本文贡献，比现有的技术提高了多少。

1.2 introduction

“导言”部分很重要。

1) 首先要讲明做本研究动机，讲明为什么本文所述的研究很重要？为什么该研究是值得做的？如果不能很好地论证，后面写得再好也没有用，因为大家不会浪费时间在“没有用”的东西上。

2) 其次，本文的贡献、创新性要明确突出，不要让人误认为你的研究与别人相似。Introduction一定是和后文前后对应的，后文反复强调引言中强调的创新性，不要过度发散，要紧扣introduction。

3) 第三，介绍你的方法时要比摘要详细些，但是不要给太多的细节。

4) 第四，文章的大纲

1.3 previous work

“相关工作”是为了证明你的工作的新颖性的。因此对前人的研究的引用要完整，并且一定要尊重相关文献的作者，可以指出其缺点，但一定要礼貌，要以建设性的方式提出。

1) 将历史上前人的工作分成类别

2) 与自己提出的工作进行比较，对每类重要历史工作进行一到几句简短回顾，注意公正评价，不过于苛刻

3) 强调自己的工作和前人工作的不同，举出各自的应用场合的例子

1.4 Our work

“正文”用来介绍技术上的细节，终极目的是要让人理解你的方法并能重现实验结果。首先，逻辑要清晰，其次，技术上的细节不能缺失。但是，如果细节可能喧宾夺主，则要适当删减或挪到附录甚至补充材料里，以免干扰正常的阅读节奏。如果文章比较复杂，可以叙述一下方法的组成部分，画出框图，展示方法、内容及其关系。

 1) 从读者角度阐明定义和表示法

2) 提供算法的伪码，图解和相应解释

3) 用设问的方式回答读者可能提出的潜在问题

复杂的冗长的证明和细节可以放在附录中，这里关键是把问题阐述清楚；
特例和例外应该在脚注中给予说明。

 1.5 Experiments

文章的实验结果要证明“我的方法的确比现有最好的方法还要好”。有一个细节需要注意：有些同学在文中用红、绿、蓝色来指示对象，但经常图片打印出来都是灰色的，对象难以区分，所以最好不要用颜色来指示图片里的对象，而要尽量用不同样式的线型、填充模式等，再打印出来确认不同对象的确是可以区分的。另外，对于所有的图、表，要在正文里加以说明，对于反常规的结果尤其要突出地论述其原因。

 1) 合理地设计实验，写出详尽的实验步骤

2) 必要的比较，突出科学性

3) 讨论，说明结果的意义

4) 给出结论

1.6 Conclusions

“结论”部分是给读者留下印象的最后机会，要进一步突出自己的贡献。你还可以开诚布公地承认自己的缺点，其实这会让审稿人留下好印象，并且给其它读者以提升空间，让他们沿着你的方向继续前行。

1) 快速简短的总结

2) 未来工作的展望

1.7 References

众所周知的结论不必引用，其它的重要工作/言论要引用

1.8 Others

致谢、附录、脚注

4. 英文措辞

2.1技巧与注意点

1) 单词多变化，常用翻译软件搜寻同义词来替换单词

2) 在翻译软件中输入单词，看它例句，学会如何使用词组与句型

3) 英文-英文，读懂意思后，用自己的话说出来，否则是抄袭。在美国一些机构，连续7个英文单词在一起和别人的完全一样，原则上就被认为抄袭。

4) 中文-英文，自己将中文文献中所用得到的语句翻译成英文。

2.2 英文学术论文常用句型

v Abstract

英文摘要的时态：

时态运用也以简练为佳，常用一般现在时、一般过去时，少用现在完成时、过去完成时，进行时态和其他复合时态基本不用。一般现在时。用于说明研究目的、叙述研究内容、描述结果、得出结论、提出建议或讨论等。涉及到公认事实、自然规律、永恒真理等，当然也要用一般现在时。一般过去时。用于叙述过去某一时刻 (时段) 的发现、某一研究过程(实验、观察、调查、医疗等过程)。需要指出的是，用一般过去时描述的发现、现象，往往是尚不能确认为自然规律、永恒真理的，而只是当时如何如何；所描述的研究过程也明显带有过去时间的痕迹。现在完成时和过去完成时。完成时少用，但不是不用。现在完成时把过去发生的或过去已完成的事情与现在联系起来，而过去完成时可用来表示过去某一时间以前已经完成的事情，或在一个过去事情完成之前就已完成的另一过去行为。

英文摘要的语态：

采用何种语态，既要考虑摘要的特点，又要满足表达的需要。一篇摘要很短，尽量不要随便混用，更不要在一个句子里混用。

主动语态：现在主张摘要中谓语动词尽量采用主动语态的越来越多，因其有助于文字清晰、简洁及表达有力。

被动语态：以前强调多用被动语态，理由是科技论文主要是说明事实经过，至于那件事是谁做的，无须一一证明。事实上，在指示性摘要中，为强调动作承受者，还是采用被动语态为好。即使在报道性摘要中，有些情况下被动者无关紧要，也必须用强调的事物做主语。

英文摘要的人称

原来摘要的首句多用第三人称 This paper…等开头，现在倾向于采用更简洁的被动语态或原形动词开头。例如：To describe…，To study…，To investigate…， To assess…，To determine…，行文时最好不用第一人称，以方便文摘刊物的编辑刊用。

避免一些语法错误

冠词。主要是定冠词 the 易被漏用。the 用于表示整个群体、分类、时间、地名以外的独一无二的事物、形容词最高级等较易掌握，用于特指时常被漏用。这里有个原则，即当我们用 the 时，听者或读者已经确知我们所指的是什么。例如：The authorfabricated a new ...The machine is operated with solar energy. 由于现在缩略语越来越多，要注意区分 a 和 an，如 an X ray. 数词。避免用阿拉伯数字作首词，如 8 turn solenoid inductor…　　单复数。一些名词单复数形式不易辨认，从而造成谓语形式出错。尽量使用短句。因为，长句容易造成语义不清；但要避免单调和重复。科技期刊涉及专业多，英文更是不易掌握，各行各业甚至表达方式、遣词造句都有区别。多看英文文献，也会有助于我们英文写作及水平的提高。
