篇章
英語寫作弃衍,并非由英語老師才掌握的特殊技能,它是清楚燎孟、準(zhǔn)確表達(dá)自己的一種交流工具禽作。而寫好關(guān)于科學(xué)的寫作,一不應(yīng)害怕科學(xué)揩页,而不需畏懼寫作旷偿。優(yōu)秀的科學(xué)內(nèi)容的文章應(yīng)該少專業(yè)術(shù)語、詞匯而清楚爆侣、簡潔萍程、翔實(shí)生動的解釋。
How:
①由點(diǎn)到面: Establish your article structure as an upside-down pyramid.
由一點(diǎn)讓讀者明確閱讀目的兔仰,寫作者在層層深入表明文章的目的茫负,如倒金字塔結(jié)構(gòu)展開。
②知其所以然: Describe how a process works
向讀者說明為什么會有文章中觀點(diǎn)乎赴、結(jié)論忍法,展現(xiàn)得出結(jié)論的過程,
③現(xiàn)身說法: Use your own experience
用自己經(jīng)歷將讀者和某些科學(xué)概念相聯(lián)系進(jìn)行說明无虚,讓讀者也能聯(lián)系生活實(shí)際
④故事說明: Weave a scientific story around someone else
利用相關(guān)科學(xué)故事解釋
⑤去抽象化: Relate them to sights they are familiar with
將抽象的概念與實(shí)際相結(jié)合缔赠,練習(xí)具體事物衍锚、事例友题,或類比
⑥低姿態(tài)說人話: Write like a person and not like a scientist.
以普通人角度普及科普知識,而不是以科學(xué)家的身份進(jìn)行枯燥的說教
