?

为什么需要paraphrasing?
?effective paraphrasing is vital in academic writing to avoid the risk of plagiarism.?
→?paraphrasing是为了避免抄袭,以防落得一个学术不端的“罪名”。

?

什么是paraphrasing?
→?简单来说,paraphrasing就是用同一种语言的不同文字来表达同样的意思。







举例告诉你,什么才是好的paraphrasing
原文?↓

differentiation as an instructional approach promotes a balance between a student’s style and a student’s ability. differentiated instruction provides the student with options for processing and internalizing the content, and for constructing new learning in order to progress academically.



paraphrased的低阶版本?↓

differentiation is a?way?to?encourage?equality?between the?approach and talent of the student?(thompson, 2009).?this type of instruction gives?students different?ways?to deal with and?grasp information, and for?establishing?new learning?to move?on in?education?(thompson, 2009).

点评:这个学生虽然做到了正确的引用,没有犯“学术剽窃”的错误,但是她只是简单地用近义表达在替换原文表达(如画线部分的表达),句子结构都没有改变,所以虽然引用正确,但是paraphrasing的工作做得并不算好。



paraphrased的高阶版本?↓

teachers use differentiated instruction to help students learn, allowing the teacher to cater lessons to the way each student learns and each student’s skill (thompson, 2009).

点评:这个学生在引用时摘出了原文作者想要表达的意思,并且完全用自己的语言表达出来了,遣词造句都是自己的内容。并且,这个学生浓缩了原文信息,将不同的点进行了整合,包括了与自己论文最相关的部分,且省略了所不需要的细节。

paraphrasing小方法:五步走
?

?① 先将原句读一遍,不懂的词查清楚一次,保证自己理解了原句的意思,如果不确定的话,需要及时找人问。

?② 思考所需paraphrasing的句子和自己论文的关联,你是需要引用它来做什么?需要用它佐证什么观点或立场吗?它与你的论文主旨、章节、段落、前后句有什么关系?这一步的目的是为了确保你所paraphrased的内容能够与你段落其他的内容自然且有逻辑的衔接上。

③ 遮住原句,想象自己将需要paraphrasing的原文解释给一个同学听,你会怎么解释?将你的解释写下来,哪怕冗长或不流畅也没关系。

④ 修改你写来的解释,使语法、用词、句子结构、逻辑都得体。

⑤?再读一遍原句,确保自己没有曲解原文意思或漏掉什么重要的信息。
