To facilitate understanding, let me give you an example.

If I want to quote a man named luna, the original words are on page 589; And luna quoted another person named Timor in that material. Timor's words are on page 774 of his text, which should be like this:

It should be noted that the author does pay attention to human nature: "Human beings are loving and responsible creatures. Humanism opens up more opportunities for life. (Timor 774) We know more or less which lies need to be changed. " (luna 589)

You find that the references in brackets are only the authors directly quoted, and the references indirectly quoted, that is, the author's references, have been included in the reference materials, which is equivalent to copying the words you directly quoted from the author intact, even the references are OK.
