Delayed proofreading will have many effects on the quality of papers. First of all, time pressure will cause the author to have insufficient time to think deeply and revise after completing the first draft. This may lead to unclear structure, insufficient arguments and even logical errors. Secondly, delaying proofreading will make the author feel alienated from the content of the paper and it is difficult to find problems. When authors start proofreading at the last minute, they may ignore some details, such as typos, grammatical errors and inconsistent formats, which will reduce the overall quality of the paper.

In addition, delayed proofreading may also lead to the author not being able to get feedback from others before submitting the paper. Usually, the author will send papers to peers or tutors for review, and learn and improve from their professional opinions. However, if authors delay proofreading, they may not receive feedback before the deadline, thus missing the opportunity to improve their papers.

In short, delaying proofreading will have a negative impact on the quality of the paper. It may lead to problems such as unclear structure, insufficient arguments and logical errors. At the same time, delaying proofreading will also make the author miss the opportunity to get feedback from others, thus failing to improve the paper in time. Therefore, in order to improve the quality of the paper, the author should start proofreading as soon as possible and make full use of the time to think and revise deeply.
