篇章
英語寫作，并非由英語老師才掌握的特殊技能，它是清楚、準(zhǔn)確表達(dá)自己的一種交流工具。而寫好關(guān)于科學(xué)的寫作，一不應(yīng)害怕科學(xué)，而不需畏懼寫作。優(yōu)秀的科學(xué)內(nèi)容的文章應(yīng)該少專業(yè)術(shù)語、詞匯而清楚、簡潔、翔實(shí)生動(dòng)的解釋。
How:
①由點(diǎn)到面: Establish your article structure as an upside-down pyramid.
由一點(diǎn)讓讀者明確閱讀目的，寫作者在層層深入表明文章的目的，如倒金字塔結(jié)構(gòu)展開。
②知其所以然: Describe how a process works
向讀者說明為什么會(huì)有文章中觀點(diǎn)、結(jié)論，展現(xiàn)得出結(jié)論的過程，
③現(xiàn)身說法: Use your own experience
用自己經(jīng)歷將讀者和某些科學(xué)概念相聯(lián)系進(jìn)行說明，讓讀者也能聯(lián)系生活實(shí)際
④故事說明: Weave a scientific story around someone else
利用相關(guān)科學(xué)故事解釋
⑤去抽象化: Relate them to sights they are familiar with
將抽象的概念與實(shí)際相結(jié)合，練習(xí)具體事物、事例，或類比
⑥低姿態(tài)說人話: Write like a person and not like a scientist.
以普通人角度普及科普知識(shí)，而不是以科學(xué)家的身份進(jìn)行枯燥的說教
