On the basis of extensive reading, we should be good at summarizing and integrating, similar to Minireview. If we can integrate and summarize some similar important documents (such as 10-20) and sort out the latest progress of several topics, we will undoubtedly deepen our understanding of the read documents. What's that note? Record new progress. What's the new progress? You need extensive reading to know.

When reading any literature or monograph, you must clearly record the title, source, author, publication year, distribution volume, page number and other information of the literature. This information is necessary in the future quotation, so don't bother. For example, all authors need to be recorded in the author column.

Some important documents need intensive reading. Reading it several times is not enough. You should be familiar with them. This kind of literature has different understandings in different periods. For example, in the opening stage, it may pay more attention to theoretical viewpoints, experimental methods and technical means in a certain direction or field; In the experimental stage, we may pay more attention to the comparison between the results, and make some trend predictions for our own results according to the results of the literature and the changing law; In the thesis writing stage, we can pay more attention to the result analysis, theoretical verification and so on. Accordingly, most documents need extensive reading, which may only need to read topics, may only read abstracts, may only browse charts and so on.

Pay attention to the title and abstract of the paper, which is very important and concise information. The essence of a paper is here. Similarly, some important information in the article also needs special attention. For example, ecological physiology pays special attention to the adaptation of species to the environment, so environmental conditions are very important information, such as the classification status, biological habits, geographical distribution, altitude, climate, vegetation and so on.

Reading literature and monographs needs accumulation and perseverance. Do more research and teaching, I'm afraid I will insist on reading new literature and new works all my life. Reading literature has a process from quantitative change to qualitative change. The more you read, the more you accumulate, and the more aspects you need to summarize. Over time, through the mastery of knowledge, the knowledge framework will be gradually improved, and the "goods" in your stomach will feel gradually enriched, and it will be very comfortable to use and take.
