Activity 1: Transparent Source Use
活动 1:透明源使用
Virtually all academic writing builds on things other people have written. The expectation in most academic texts is that the writer will start with an awareness of what is already known on the topic and then build on it. To do this, we have to tell our readers some of the things we've found in our reading, and we have a responsibility to be transparent about that. In other words, an academic reader expects to understand how other texts have influenced the new one, and an academic writer is responsible for providing the necessary clues to give the reader that understanding.
几乎所有的学术写作都建立在其他人写的东西之上。大多数学术文本的期望是作者从对该主题已经已知的认识开始,然后在此基础上进行构建。要做到这一点,我们必须告诉读者我们在阅读中发现的一些事情,我们有责任对此保持透明。换句话说,学术读者希望了解其他文本如何影响新文本,而学术作者负责提供必要的线索,让读者理解。
