Professional books generally talk about widely accepted outdated knowledge. You must know this knowledge and be very skilled in some data, formulas or professional knowledge. Many people don't like reading professional books, but only regard professional books as reference books, thinking that they are of little value to stimulate their own research inspiration. Read magazine articles often and read more. For your own professional magazines, there are at least some good magazines, and each issue will be read in time.

Second, a solid English.

Now the English of the younger generation is better than before. Usually read more literature and other people's sci papers, and pay more attention to the author's words (preferably English), the expansion of sentences and the expansion of paragraphs. English is richer and more flexible than Chinese. At present, many friends like to use English-Chinese dictionaries or Kingsoft. However, I found that they were not very good. Bian Xiao personally likes to use an English dictionary, which helps to understand English words accurately.

Third, scientific research tools are solid.

Including indoor and outdoor, experimental skills and the main software tools needed to write articles. Different majors have different requirements for experiments. What I want to say here is that in the process from raw data to article manuscript, the software tools you may use: text, graphics, data analysis and statistics, data simulation, not only have high efficiency in writing articles, but also have a certain depth.
