学术英语特点PPT课件
学术英语是一种特殊的英语写作风格,主要用于学术论文、研究报告和学术文章等。该风格特点在于its objectivity, tentativeness, and nominalization 等特征。
Feature 1:Making tentative statements (不确定性陈述)
在学术英语写作中,作者需要避免绝对化和武断的语言, Instead, they use tentative language to express their ideas and opinions. 这种语言的特点是使用modal verbs(如could, may, might),verbs(如indicate, suggest, seem),adverbs(如maybe, perhaps, possibly),和adjectives(如possible, probable, likely)等。
例如:We can infer from the data that...(我们可以从数据中推断...)
Feature 2:Objectivity (客观性)
学术英语写作的主要特点是客观性,而不是个人主观经验或感情。因此,作者需要避免表达个人观点和主观判断,Instead, they focus on intellectual ideas and factual information.
例如:The above analysis seems to indicate that the Internet plays a significant role in our daily life.(上述分析似乎表明,互联网在我们的日常生活中扮演着重要的角色。)
Feature 3:Use of passive voice (被动语态)
学术英语写作中经常使用被动语态,以minimize the use of WE, I and other pronouns. 这种语态可以使文本更加客观和形式化。
例如:Research was conducted on the breeding habits of marsupials in the north-west region of Victoria.(研究marsupials繁殖习惯的研究在维多利亚州北西地区进行。)
Feature 4:Nominalisation (名词化)
Nominalisation是学术英语写作中的another common feature,即将actions/processes(动词)变成things(名词)。这使得文本更加concise和formal.
例如:The invasion of Poland in 1939 was the immediate cause of the outbreak of the Second World War.(1939年波兰的入侵是第二次世界大战的直接原因。)
学术英语特点包括不确定性陈述、客观性、被动语态和名词化等特征。这些特征使得学术英语写作更加formal, objective, and concise.
