2、mary)用简练的语言对原文进行高度概括,在篇幅上应小于原文,但内容上应忠实原文。2.改写(paraphrase)重组语言对原文进行改写,在篇幅上与原文基本相符,并且内容忠实原文。3.引用(quotation)指引用原文原话,须严格标明出处页码引证(citation).Task Objective总而言之,引用他人观点及研究结果需要引证,否则就会涉嫌抄袭。而“引用”通常用于经典文献中经典段落、语句的引用,如下定义是最常见的原话引用,但因其“原话引用”的性质,在论文中使用频率和数量,远低于缩写和改写,本章重点介绍的是“缩写”和“改写”两种写作技巧,二者贯穿于写作过程中。以下在 Sample1基础

18、Text 1 is a plagiarized version of the original text,because most of these sentences do little more than substitute one phrase for another.An additional problem with this passage is that the only citation occurs at the very end of the paragraph.The reader might be misled into thinking that the earli

21、003)found that females,although they reported that they possessed more person-oriented traits than males,described themselves as similarly task-oriented as males.3)These results support the idea of gender stereotypes as dynamic constructs as proposed by Diekman and Eagly(2000)and reflect more recent
22、ly reported changes in masculine gendered behavior(Twenge,1997,2001).4)Fiedlers LPC contingency model(1967,1978)describes how the situation moderates the relationship between leader effectiveness and a trait measure called the least preferred co-worker score.5)As described in the literature review,w
23、omen have been found to embrace transformational leadership qualities to a greater extent than men,while men tend to embrace more transactional styles(Bass&Avolio,1993;Druskat,1994;Eagly&Johannesen-Schmidt,2001;Eagly,Johannesen-Schmidt&van Engen,2003).6)Findings from the recent literature that descr

25、3;Eagly&Carli,2003).8)Although no theory on offer can fully explain Tau and Kappa effects(Sarrazin et al.,2004),the theory that appears to explain the majority of available data is the“imputed velocity hypothesis”(Jones&Huang,1982),according to which Tau and Kappa effects arise because“subjects impu

27、 every part of duration in every part of expansion”(p.140).10)A significant amount of past research has examined how individuals purchase and display status-conveying products in order to present a particular image and to show that they are better than others(Bagwell&Bernheim,1996;Mason,1992;Veblen,
28、1899).11)One such avenue is to examine the relationship between race and gender and how activating one or the other characteristic affects behaviors.1.2介绍研究目的和内容介绍研究目的和内容:1)This paper describes six psychophysical experiments that tested the separability of distance and duration in human judgments.2)
29、The strongest and most consistent findings from this study reveal that transformational leadership and institutional context are the most important elements in ratings of leader effectiveness.3)These findings support the claim that leadership roles are widely perceived as aligning with stereotypical
30、ly masculine traits.4)This result may imply that increasing diversity on campus has been a struggle for all types of leaders at all types of institutions,regardless of gender,race,and leadership style.5)Patterns of cross-dimensional interference were analyzed to reveal relationships between spatial
31、and temporal representations.6)My results suggest that these individuals utilize the act of paying money for products(in general)as a status enhancing strategy.7)I examine how individuals who have(do not have)high status,either achieved through personal merit or endowed through birth,engage(do not e

33、research by exploring content-related factors that should guide language choice in advertising to bilingual markets.10)Our research shows how the everyday usage of a language in different contexts can lead to greater accessibility of words in the various languages spoken by bilinguals when the words
34、 relate to those contexts.11)The purpose of study is to investigate whether ads that use the appropriate language for the language domain content area will be preferred over ads that do not use the appropriate language for the language domain content area.12)This article examines changes in attitude

39、tatement that sums up the main point of the source.This thesis statement is not your main point;it is the main point of your source.7)Introduce the text to be summarized,by giving the title of the source(following the citation guidelines of whatever style)or providing the name of the author of the s
40、ource.8)Dont merely paraphrase.Analyze and add your own insight into the reading.9)Distinguish between main and subsidiary information.Dont include all the details from the original passage when paraphrasing.10)You dont need to change every word.Common key terms are consistently used in writing.11)A
41、ny unique term orphraseology coined by the original writer should be put in quotation marks.12)Cite the source at the end(following the citation guidelines of whatever style).13)Dont distort the original meaning and refer back to the original text after writing.14)Go through the process again,and ma

47、he paraphrase is a legitimate one.Rewritten Text Students often use too many direct quotations when they take notes,resulting in too many of them in the final research paper.In fact,probably only about 10%of the final copy should consist of directly quoted material.So it is important to limit the am
48、ount of source material copied while taking notes.The rewritten text is a plagiarized version.The rewritten text simply changes some words in the original text,without changing the structure of the text.Furthermore,it doesnt cite the source.3.On a separate piece of paper,write a paraphrase of each o
