First, we must first occupy and select materials around the topic.
That is to say, when your topic is determined, first, you should possess the materials around the argument and read as much as possible. Some topics come from topics that the teacher has studied. Quite a few students set their own topics, accumulate materials first, and then have arguments. Once the argument is established, go back and take possession of the material. In the possession of materials, it is similar to the basic writing I said. The first thing is to have the materials and real materials of the research object. For example, if you want to study several works of a writer at a certain stage, you should make in-depth and detailed research on these works to further determine your own arguments. If your paper is a report, not purely theoretical, but written in the form of experimental report, investigation report and summary, then your investigation materials and experimental materials should also be accounted for.
Second, we need epitaxial materials with research objects.
For example, if you want to study the writer's works, then you should study the background materials of the writer's writing, including the political and economic background, the background of literary and artistic thoughts and so on. There are also writers who talk about their own creative materials, and there are also materials that others have studied. With these materials, you can meet people and discuss the world, and you can make yourself as impartial as possible in your research. Therefore, fully possessing the materials will make your argument more complete. In this way, your argument will be deeper and wider in the future.
Third, we should choose materials on the basis of materials.
Never bring all the materials in, as long as you have them. This is a common problem when you write a paper. For example, if you write 10,000 words, you may write 50,000 or 60,000 words. Like that student just now, writing 60 thousand words is too rich. When you can't grasp it yourself, you can ask the teacher to help you and tell you what can and can't be used. More material is better than nothing, because it is always easy to delete. In the case of more materials, you choose better materials.
2. Select the paper type.
The second preparation is to choose the type of paper. The graduation thesis types are academic papers and reportage papers. For less applied disciplines, such as the study of writers' works and the study of poetry schools, it is easier to make academic papers. For highly applied subjects, such as teaching, journalism, therapeutics and experiments, papers are generally investigative or summative, and I summarize them as report papers.
3000-word papers published in magazines are usually report papers. The report paper mainly summarizes the experience. Whether it is a summary or a report, in short, we must sum up some regular things in the end. For example, the teaching experience of comprehensive learning in new textbooks has several rules: comprehensive learning can stimulate students to participate and learn actively; Comprehensive learning can stimulate students' innovative consciousness and cultivate students' innovative ability; Comprehensive learning focuses on extracurricular learning, which can strengthen the combination of in-class and out-of-class and strengthen the cultivation of ability; Comprehensive learning can strengthen students' experience and understanding of Chinese learning, and make students' emotional attitude and value orientation develop in a healthy direction. These experiences of his try to discuss theoretically and explain its significance.
Most students' papers are academic, and academic papers are mainly about a certain professional field. After full research, it is expressed in words and symbols. The basic requirement of this kind of paper is that commentators use their own knowledge to discuss and study the theoretical or practical problems of their major. Academic papers can also be subdivided into two types, one is an expository paper and the other is a comprehensive paper. The biggest feature of the so-called expository writing is that it is mainly based on discussion and has a strong theoretical color. It can be divided into argumentation type and refutation type. Argumentative type is to actively establish one's own views, while refuting type is to refute others' views. There are many comprehensive newspapers in our large newspapers and some magazines. For example, half a year has passed in 2003, and we can summarize the novels of this half a year.
If we summarize literary creation, we should summarize various styles. If it is a summary novel, it is necessary to describe the novels published in magazines and newspapers in the past six months. This is a comprehensive type, which is often described and discussed. Comparatively speaking, as long as your information can be found and you have certain generalization ability, it is easier to write a comprehensive paper than an expository one. Because argumentative writing is completely argumentative, it needs better logical thinking. In addition, the depth of the debate is still certain. This is still an undergraduate, let alone a graduate student.
The choice of paper type mainly depends on the paper object. If it is macroscopic, we will use a comprehensive description; If it is microscopic and involves the works of specific writers or a certain problem, we choose explanatory text. If our major is highly applied, such as teaching, journalism, agriculture and forestry, I suggest you write a report paper, an investigation report or a summary report. For this kind of articles, you can read newspapers and magazines. If it is a highly applied subject, I suggest you write a report paper, including investigation report, summary and experimental report. Some experimental reports can be papers. This is the second rule.
3. Draw up the writing outline of the paper.
The third rule of preparation is to draw up the writing outline of the paper. Without a complete writing outline, logical thinking will be biased. This is different from prose creation. Prose creation is also a hundred-word prose or a thousand-word prose, and a draft is almost enough. An academic paper of 3000 words should have an outline, not to mention a graduation thesis of 10000 words. List the outlines one by one and read them. What is the general argument and the sub-argument? There are several sub-arguments around the general argument. After the points are listed, we must pay attention to the relationship of taking the outline as the guide and serving the outline with our eyes. After this relationship is clarified, whether it is parallel relationship, master-slave relationship, progressive relationship, causal relationship, logical relationship should be clarified. So you can learn from the outline.
