terminology in our disciplines( Chemistry and Chemical Enginnering) whenever necessary Even everyday words and phrases must be used precisely. With these introductory comments we are now ready to look at the process of writing A research paper has a fomal structure, normally consisting of at least the sections: Introduction, Experimental (or Materials and Methods), Results and Discussion. To begin writing, it helps to write down under each of the sections above, a summary or skeletal form of the section. This may be in point form. The summaries under the appropriate sections establish the central structure of the paper. The student can then later elaborate on each of the sections To help writing the sections we keep in mind the objectives of each What are the main objectives of each of the sections Introduction, Experimental, Results and Discussion? What should then be the content of each? The following pages will discuss each in turn. Examples of the d ifferent types of content will also be given to help the writer. For each of the sections, common phrases and words used are also reproduced for the writer 's reference We also include a chapter on how to prepare I llustrations and Tables. The tips given will help you prepare illustrations and tables that are normally used in papers For those writing dissertations, you may find the chapter on Writing a Dissertation helpful Requirements and guidelines for preparation for Submitting Papers for Publication are included in a separate chapter. Finally, useful tips are given for preparing papers for Presentation in Technical Conferences The append ices provide lists of terms and words commonly used in both Chemistry and Chemical Engineering together with lists of commonly misspelt words and examples of common mistakes in English taken from local dissertations and research papers. 第一章引言 化学的起源可以追溯到远古时代,作为一门独立的科学分支,也有几个世纪的历史,而 现代化学的成长则是近百年的事,特别是近50年,是化学飞速发展的时期由于其它学科的 出现和发展,使学科间得以相互渗透,于是又出现了许多边缘科学,也出现了更多的学科分terminology in our disciplines ( Chemistry and Chemical Enginnering) whenever necessary.Even everyday words and phrases must be used precisely.
