  thoughts given by sherlock holmes and the duke’s son.

  written in the first chapter of the book pride and prejudice is an extraordinary sentence of which even a person who has had only a brief look upon the book will not fail to receive a deep impression-it is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife. in terms of sherlock holmes, we’d better alter the sentence into “it is a fact universally accepted by readers throughout the world that an excellent book in possession of our famous detective sherlock holmes is undoubtedly a masterpiece of all times.” perhaps this is one of the most obvious explanations for the unrivaled popularity of “holmes series” in the field of detective stories. overwhelmed by the recommendations provided by my friends, i decided to take a look on this sherlock holmes and the duke’s son originally published by oxford university press.

  as a whole, this book is about a case concerning the duke’s missing son. arthur, the duke’s son, was found out in a certain morning to have disappeared, accompanied with which was also the disappearance of the german teacher. the school master dr. huxtable then turned to the famous detective of the time sherlock holmes for help. realizing how tough and important the case is, holmes immediately made up his mind to accept the case and followed dr. huxtable back to mackleton by train. having formed a rough idea about the whole matter, holmes probed into the case immediately and had a careful investigation of the entire area shortly after the arrival, during the process of which he discovered the body of the german teacher heidegger. finally, primarily due to his prominent ability as a detective, he managed to unravel the mystery and obtained the twelve thousand pounds promised by the duke.

  having once started reading this fiction, i was completely immersed in the mysterious story presented by the book. as the saying goes, “well begun, half done”. at the beginning of the story, just like many other detective stories, the author gives us a brief description of the condition by the words of a client. however, unlike other ones, this story first delineates the client’s strange behavior at length to indicate the severity of the incident in order to attract the readers to continue reading it. as is known to all, vivid depiction is essential to detective stories since it can help the readers understand each figure’s characteristics and visualize the scenes, thus making the story more authentic and attractive. therefore, trying to present a “real world” to his readership, sir arthur conan doyle, author of the original “holmes series”, has skillfully arranged the plots of the whole story from the perspective of dr. watson, a character not so specialized in discovering the truth hidden behind the enigmatic happenings as holmes but so loyal to sherlock homes as a friend that he always accompanies holmes wherever he goes. in this way, he elaborately depicted every scene and character in the book, apart from the special start, the ending of the whole story, being dramatic but reasonable, is certainly an outstanding one. after all, except the author himself, who knows that the duke’s seemingly ordinary secretary is in fact the duke’s bastard? in addition, who knows that the duke actually has already been acquainted with the whole thing before holmes solves this complicated problem? yet, surprising as it is, this ending seems so natural that it fits all the plots of the story perfectly well. while enjoying this wonderful story, i could do nothing but admire the wonderful design of this masterpiece as well as the author’s gorgeous writing skill. closing my eyes, i can even “see” the story happening just like watching a film. not until then did i understand why the japanese cartoon film detective conan used this “conan” as the name of its hero.

  as far as i am concerned, nothing is more admirable and surprising in the hero sherlock homes than his profound knowledge which has certainly assisted him a lot when he was studying the case. take the bicycle tyres for instance, holmes actually is capable of recognizing 42 different varieties of bicycle tyres. what’s more, according to his other stories, holmes has studied different kinds of newspapers, cigarettes, people’s footprints and other special things as well. therefore, he seems to have the mastery of anything relevant to the cases he deals with. except for his illimitable knowledge, holmes also specializes in arranging the facts in order and then finding the fact leading him to a great discovery or even the truth itself. from his speaking “every mystery has an answer”, we can readily shape the impression of a man with great intelligence and inflexible will. in this case, after getting rid of unrelated facts, sherlock homes eventually grasped the clue and discovered the amazing fact.

  摘要:

  本文提出了几种最常见的中式英语习惯它们是从超过两百份中国学生写的英文论文中观察得来的。文中解释了这些习惯并且在大部分情况下给出了从实际论文中出现的例子以及正确的用法。我们试图去解释如何去改正和避免这些错误。一些情况下我们还解释了为什么这些习惯会出现。本文可以成为一个单独的科技论文编写指南尤其是当很难寻找一个母语为英语的编辑时。

  大意

  section 1

  a an the

  冠词后面将跟随一个名词并且任何冠词与名词之间的修饰词都用来修饰这个名词(a big blue bicycle / the first award)。a和an是不定冠词the是定冠词。单数形式的不可数名词以及指代一个可数事务的普通名词它们每次都需要一些限定词(determiner)。

  它们的使用方法如下图所示:

  incorrect figure 2 shows the distribution of relative velocity on surface of main

  and splitter blades.15

  correct figure 2 shows the distribution of relative velocity on the surface of the

  main and splitter blades.15

  分析上面的例子surface是一个单数、可数、没有限定词的特定的单词因此要用the修饰。而blades是一个复数、可数、没有特殊限定词、并且特定的单词因此也要用the修饰。

  very long sentence

  太长的句子不利于读者理解应该尽量分为多个句子。对于一些参数的陈列尽量使用列表或者整齐的子句。

  

  prefacing the main idea of a sentence by stating the purpose

  location or reason first

  在句子的前面陈述目的、位置、原因等而不是陈述句子的主要含义。这样减弱了句子的主旨混淆了读者的理解。

  incorrect for the application in automobile interiors this paper studies the nesting

  optimization problem in leather manufacturing. 5

  correct this paper studies the nesting optimization problem in leather manufacturing

  for application in automobile interiors.

  tendency of placing phrases which indicate time at the beginning of

  a sentence

  倾向于把表示时间的短语放在句首。这样是不自然的。

  incorrect when u is taken as the control parameter the bds for δ =0.0 0.001 0.005

  are shown in fig. 8.

  correct figure 8 shows the bds for δ =0.0 0.001 and 0.005 when u is taken as the

  control parameter.

  place the most important subject at the beginning of the sentence for

  emphasis

  将最重要的主题放在句首以示重视。这样的理解是错误的。

  incorrect based on the triangulation structure built from unorganized points or a cad

  model the extended stl format is described in this section.4

  correct the extended stl format is described in this section based on the triangulation

  structure built from unorganized points or a cad model.

  which/ that”

  ‘respectively’ and ‘respective’

  1. respectively is misplaced in the sentence; it is put before the nouns to which it refers.

  incorrect equations 2~6 can be respectively linearized as:……(equations given)…13

  correct equations 2~6 can be linearized as:……(equations given)… respectively.

  incorrect the weights of the two experts are respectively 0.600 and 0.400.19

  correct the weights of the two experts are 0.600 and 0.400 respectively.

  2. respectively is inserted to express that there is a certain order in which something was

  done. however the order is already implied elsewhere in the sentence or does not need

  to be expressed because it does not add value to meaning of the sentence.

  incorrect if both the core technology score and core quality score of a bottleneck process

  are respectively below certain scores then we refer to strategy 1 otherwise if

  either is respectively above a certain score then we refer to strategy 2.

  similarly if the core technology and core quality are respectively above a

  certain score then we refer to strategy 3 otherwise if either is respectively

  below a certain score then we refer to strategy 4.19

  correct if both the core technology score and core quality score of a bottleneck process

  are below certain scores then we refer to strategy 1 otherwise if either is

  above a certain score then we refer to strategy 2. similarly if the core

  technology and core quality are above a certain score then we refer to strategy[page]

  3 otherwise if either is below a certain score then we refer to strategy 4.

  respectively通常出现在句子的结尾当两个或者更多的人或事被按照一定的顺序提起或者指定时使用respectively。它包含了一种顺序这种顺序可以是在前面提到的也可以是被读者领会到的。

  例子:

  for example: bobby nicole and daren wore red green and blue coats respectively.

  list 1 list 2

  bobby wore a red coat.

  nicole wore a green coat.

  daren wore a blue coat.

  ‘in this paper’ ‘in this study’

  study指作者做出的工作;paper指作者表达工作的论文。不可混淆。

  这两个短语最好只用在两个地方:

  1. 介绍或者总结全文时;

  2. 在文中当指出了其他作者的一些没有完成的工作之后使用这两个短语来描述自己的工作。

  numbers and equations

  阿拉伯数不应该出现在句子的开头而应该使用英文单词。

  incorrect 12 parameters were selected for the experiment.

  correct twelve parameters were selected for the experiment.

  阿拉伯数被滥用它们应该在给出技术指标时使用而不用来表示普遍的信息。

  不要在句子中使用符号或者表达式而应该以语言描述。(一般的论文要求所有的表达式都单独写出来并使用特定的格式)

  incorrect if the power battery soc > soclo and the driving torque belongs to the

  middle load…

  correct if the power battery soc is greater than soclo and the driving torque

  belongs to the middle load…

  format

  paragraphs

  分段的错误有两个:第一种是换行但是没有缩进所以让读者不知道这是否是新的一段。

  第二种是一段的最前面是一个单行的句子这个句子和这一段同时都缩进了。

  (这句话的理解不太清晰我怀疑我理解错了。原文是:the second

  error occurs when a paragraph is preceded by a single sentence on a single line. the

  single line is indented along with the succeeding paragraph as in example #. this

  commonly occurs in chinese texts but is never done in english.)

  ‘figure’ and ‘table’

  figure和table的正确缩写分别是fig.和tbl.。缩写不能出现在句首并且figure/table和数之间必须有一个空格。

  variables

  变量必须使用斜体。

  capitals

  大写母不能出现在句中只能出现在句首。

  ‘such as’ and ‘etc.’

  such as的含义和for example一样;etc.的含义等于and so on。它们如果放在同一个句子里则是冗余的。

  such as意味着后面跟随一个不完整的列表如果后面列出了所有的元素则不应使用such as。

  incorrect compared to traditional industry micro-electronic fabrication has three

  characteristics such as high complexity high precision and high automation.

  correct compared to traditional industry micro-electronic fabrication has three

  characteristics: high complexity high precision and high automation.

  section 2

  1.下列单词具有同样的单数和复数形式:

  literature (when referring to research)

  equipment

  staff (referring to a group of people)

  faculty

  2.下列单词不要同时使用仅仅使用一个就可以了

  3.一些单词要求它所修饰的名词必须为复数:

  4.永远不要以阿拉伯数或者英文缩写作为句子的开头。

  5.不要使用by this way而用by doing this或者using this method代替。

  6.永远不要使用how to作为一个句子的开头。(口语中也不要说)

  no how to find the optimal parameter is the main objective.

  yes determining how to find the optimal parameter is the main objective.

  7.不要写“the results are shown as figure 2”要写“the results are shown in figure 2”。

  8.变量要使用斜体特别使变量用英文母表示的时候。

  9.避免如下使用单词“obviously”的方法:

  no obviously detecting regimes by means of pmh maps is a novel method.8

  yes detecting regimes by means of pmh maps is a novel method.8

  10.国际论文不应该使用地域相关的单词例如at homeabroadhereour country等等。应该使用“in china”。

  11.避免过度使用“that is to say”或者“namely”而应该尽量在一个句子中表达完整你的意思。

  12.不要在句子的末尾使用too尤其是在科技论文中。

  后记

  看完此文受益匪浅。如果没有上过科技论文写作课那么此文绝对会对你有很大帮助。其实很多大学开设的科技论文写作课都没什么作用。正如作者在文中说的找一个母语为英语的老师不难但是找一个母语为英语同时懂科技论文写作的就很难了。目前多数大学的外教很少有熟悉科技论文写作的。因此中国学生写英文论文只能照葫芦画瓢虽然有的画得似模似样但是很多中文习惯也被带进去了。并且细微之处难以分明。中国人读英文文章还可以囫囵吞枣到了英语为母语的人眼里则是含混晦涩了。

  总之值得一读。

高中英语教师读书笔记

  高中英语备课之我见

  教学方法的设计是最为重要的,同样是一本好的参考书或教案,也并不是所有的老师都能运用它并在课堂上讲得生动有趣、栩栩如生的,而关键是老师本人对教材的钻研程度。好的教法能激发学生的学习兴趣。

  为实现以上目的,我首先坚持每课必备原则,做到不打无准备之仗。在备课时,认真钻研教材,明确新授知识与前后知识的联系,建立知识的逻辑系统,掌握教学目的,理解重点、难点,把握好“双基”然后选择恰当的方法,精心编写教案。如英语中的时态,是学生难以驾驭的,我在教时态时,采用直观教学法教学,如以“关灯”为例,边说边做,取得较好结果。我一边去关灯,一边说:

  when class begins, we usually shut the light.

  i'm going to shut the light.

  i told you that i had shut the light.

  i'm shutting the light.i have shut the light.

  when i was shutting the light you watched me carefully.

  i said would go to shut the light.just now i shut the light.

  我表演后,叫学生表演,用门、窗等直观教具融行为和语言为一体,这样许多学生通过直观教学对时态不再陌生。通过情景、直观教学,培养学生的思维想象能力,使他们能触景生情,脱口而出,既活跃了课堂气氛又轻松、愉快地学到了知识,使他们感觉到学习不是一种负担。

  所以这时候不能只考虑到自己的教,而且还要考虑学生的学,学生情况千差万别,如不注意教与学的关系,那么教的再好,学生所获得的知识和技能也将是很少的,正如营养与食料,学生认识能力就好比胃的吸收功能,学生学习的积极性就如人的食欲,学生的兴趣爱好就如人对食物的选择,对就餐者来说,他的胃的健康状况、吸收功能及食欲,还有对食物的选择等都是厨师在设计饭菜时必须考虑的。

  备课质量的高低与学生获得知识的多少紧密相关。学生获得知识的多少自然可以从成绩中得出答案。我十分注重学生的作业与考试中出现的错误,因为这些错误往往是我们在备课或讲课时,无周密考虑或忽视了的问题,所以我认为凡是与学生知识出现错误多的教案都不是好教案,应该加以修改和完善。作为教师要多看课外知识,多观察每篇课文句与句的联惯性,以及在高考中应如何出题,学生又如何解答题,要向学生多问几个为什么。

  此外,采取课内、课外相结合也是我在英语备课中进行教案设计的重要内容。我把英语教学延伸到课外去,充分利用英语角创设语境。英语角是我们英语教学的生命线,是课堂英语教学的重要延伸。英语角不该仅仅是少数学生的舞台,它应该是全体学生实践英语、感知和体验生活的重要平台。教师可开展丰富多彩的英语角活动,活动内容应具有实际意义,贴近学生生活、学习活动和社会实际,去激发学生的参与愿望,让学生在实践中充分运用英语,在实践中掌握英语,坚持以听说为主,尽力拓宽练习的面,增加听说的活动量,以满足学生自我实现、企求成功的心理需要,这样学生的积极性高,乐于参与。
