《科技英语写作指南》

《科技英语写作指南》

《科技英语写作指南》Writing in the field of science and technology requires a combination of technical knowledge and effective communication skills. When writing about complex concepts or research findings, it is important to convey information clearly and concisely for a diverse audience. This can be especially challenging when trying to reach a global readership with varying levels of expertise in the subject matter.在科技领域写作需要将专业知识与有效沟通技巧相结合。

当涉及复杂概念或研究发现时,为了吸引不同水平读者,清晰、简洁地传达信息至关重要。

如果要吸引全球读者,其中一些人的专业知识水平可能有所不同。

One key aspect of writing in technology is the use of terminology and jargon specific to the field. While these terms may be essential for accurately conveying information, it is important to strike a balance between technical accuracy and readability for a broader audience. Providing explanations or definitions for technical terms can help clarify the content for readers who may not be familiar with the specialized vocabulary.科技写作的一个关键方面是使用特定领域的术语和行话。

第一章 科技英语单句写作
• 对于研究生、专业教师和科技工作者来说,所 谓科技英语写作,就是把中文的论文翻译成英 语文本的问题。目前我们在进行科技英语写作 学习过程中最迫切的任务是一定要把单句写好。

①科技人员趋向于使用一些显得稳重的规 范词(formal words)(因为普通词汇一般来 说显得比较随便),这样从词汇这一方面突 出了科技英语正式、庄重的语体特征,避 免使用浮华、带有感情色彩的词语,当然 并不是说在科技文中不用普通词汇。如: 普通英语词 科技英语中的非技术词 (一般语体) (正式语体) about approximately ask inquire begin commence buy purchase
另外,由于论文的文摘是概述论文的内容,所 以“在本文中(in this paper)”这一概念在英文文 摘中一般是不必写出来的,写上了就显得多此一 举(不过我们也发现有些外国人也常用这一短语 的)。但是如果文摘一开头是说明或介绍情况, 然后陈述本文提出了某种解决方案、设计方法等, 这时就得加上“in this paper”这一短语,它起 了一个转折语的作用,这样就显得上下概念贯通 了。
若在文摘中使用主动语态,则主语多用名词或 第三人称的代词。但在现代英文文摘中也有用第 一人称复数形式代词“we”的。 不过,到目前为止几乎没人使用第一人称单数 “I(我)”的(我们发现有初写英文文摘的同学可能 由于受汉语的影响往往在文摘中使用了“I”)。从 多数情况看,英美人通常用"the authors"或 "the author"来表示相应的“我们”或“我”的 概念。
需要注意,尽管前面介绍过副词作状语时 在句中的位置是灵活的,但在被动句中修饰 主动词的副词大多应放在过去分词之前而不 放在句首,如: The circuit is then completed. Wires are usually made of copper. The current in this resistor is first determined.

科技英语写作教程
第三节 科技论文及其摘要的写作注意事项 一、所写的英语句子语法上一定要正确,进 而努力做到地道、准确 二、广泛使用被动句 三、科技论文及文摘中使用的时态 四、词汇问题 五、句子特征 六、科技论文和文摘中不使用口语体的缩略 形式 七、与主题无关的内容不要写在文摘中
一、所写的英语句子语法上一定要正确,进而 努力做到地道、准确 能写出语法上正确的句子是最起码的要求, 因为至少使外国人能了解你想要表达的意思。 可有一部分同学由于语法概念不怎么强、句 型不怎么熟练,所以在撰写英语句子时往往 根据脑子里汉语的概念而堆上一些英语单词, 从而写出了不少“中文式的英语”。我们经 常发现没有主语的句子,在及物动词后缺少 宾语,在介词后表示一个动作没有用动名词 而用了过去分词,主语与谓语的数不一致, 使用分词作状语时其逻辑主语与句子的主语 不一致,可数名词单数前没有冠词或不知道 使用an,等等。
二、广泛使用被动句 在科技论文中由于主要着重讲述客观现象和科技真 理,所以与日常英语和文学著作相比,被动句使用 得广泛得多(外国人统计过,被动句在科技英语中约 占三分之一,比文艺类的文章多十余倍),而在英文 文摘中更是如此。我们汉语中则被动句用得较少, 且可使用没有行为主体的无人称句(或者使用主语为 “人们”、“大家”等意义的词),这时用英语表达 时就该使用被动句了,否则很容易写出没有主语的 “中文式英语”来。当然科技英语中也有表示“人 们、大家”的词,那就是"one”(注意并不是有些读 者常喜欢用的"people"一词,这个词在正式的科技 文中是很少用的),它在语法上表示单数第三人称, 总体上来说,这个词也并不是十分常用的。
必须求出该电阻上的电流与电压。 It is necessary to find out the current through and the voltage across the resistor,(本句中要注意在current和 voltage后要用不同的介词,前者跟 through,而后者要跟across,绝对不能 写成中文式的“…the current and voltage on the resistor”.)
(6)在某些情况下,英语与汉语的词序是不同 的,在写作时应特别留意。例如: 接收机每个部分的电路将分章详细介绍。 The circuits for each receiver section are presented in detail in separate chapters. 在这种情况下需要加上另外四个时钟脉冲。 In this case,it is necessary to apply four additional (added) clock pulses.(当然本 句也可用another four来表示“另外四个”, 这时英汉词序就相同了)。
在把句子的语法结构搞正确后,就要进一步 熟悉常用的固定句型。每个专业有各自的一些 固定说法。在阅读本专业的英语书刊时要经常 留意并摘记下来。句型积累多,写起英语来就 顺当多了。譬如在数学书籍中,我们说“这个 解 验 证 无 误 ” , 英 语 常 用 “ The solution checks . ” 来 表 示 ; “ 证 毕 ” 常 用 "This completes the proof.”来表示或使用拉丁 语 Q . E . D . ( 或 QED) ;“这等于是说 …” 常 用“This amounts to saying…”或“This is equivalent to saying.”来表示。
本文讨论了现代通讯的基本原理。 The fundamental principles of modern communication are discussed (in the paper). 同时给出了经验公式。 An empirical formula is also given. 我们使用了几种简单的介质试验目标。 Several simple dielectric test objects have been utilized. 本方法避免了矩阵求逆的复杂运算。 This scheme avoids the complexities of matrix inversion.
需要注意,尽管前面介绍过副词作状语时 在句中的位置是灵活的,但在被动句中修饰 主动词的副词大多应放在过去分词之前而不 放在句首,如: The circuit is then completed. Wires are usually made of copper. The current in this resistor is first determined.
另外,由于论文的文摘是概述论文的内容,所 以“在本文中(in this paper)”这一概念在英文文 摘中一般是不必写出来的,写上了就显得多此一 举(不过我们也发现有些外国人也常用这一短语 的)。但是如果文摘一开头是说明或介绍情况, 然后陈述本文提出了某种解决方案、设计方法等, 这时就得加上“in this paper”这一短语,它起 了一个转折语的作用,这样就显得上下概念贯通 了。
keep up maintain turn upside down invert set fire [light] to ignite make·weak weaken take...into pieces dismantle turn...into liquid liquefy be made up of be composed of
三、科技论文及文摘中使用的时态 由于科技文侧重于叙述科技内容,很少涉 及动作发生的时间,所以科技写作中时态运 用很有限,常用的只有几种,其中最大量使 用的时态是一般现在时,其次是一般将来时 和现在完成时,再次是一般过去时和现在进 行时,其它时态相对来说用得不多(当然, 为了表示虚拟语气,还要借用到过去完成时、 过去将来时和过去将来完成时)。而在文摘 中则主要使用一般现在时,其次是现在完成 时,偶尔使用一般过去时和一般将来时。
本文提出了一种新的计算机辅助设计方法。 A new computer-aided design method is presented (in the paper).(当然从语法上来 说,这个句子也可译成主动句:This paper presents a new computer-aided design method.)从英美人写的科技文摘来看,以 译成被动句的情况为多见。 我们通常见到的英文文摘的第一句话“本文 提出了(介绍了,证明了)……”,英美人常用 被动句,例如: A new procedure for checking the stability of 2—D digital filters is proposed.
若在文摘中使用主动语态,则主语多用名词或 第三人称的代词。但在现代英文文摘中也有用第 一人称复数形式代词“we”的。 不过,到目前为止几乎没人使用第一人称单数 “I(我)”的(我们发现有初写英文文摘的同学可能 由于受汉语的影响往往在文பைடு நூலகம்中使用了“I”)。从 多数情况看,英美人通常用"the authors"或 "the author"来表示相应的“我们”或“我”的 概念。
①科技人员趋向于使用一些显得稳重的规 范词(formal words)(因为普通词汇一般来 说显得比较随便),这样从词汇这一方面突 出了科技英语正式、庄重的语体特征,避 免使用浮华、带有感情色彩的词语,当然 并不是说在科技文中不用普通词汇。如: 普通英语词 科技英语中的非技术词 (一般语体) (正式语体) about approximately ask inquire begin commence buy purchase
计算机已广泛地用于我们的国防。 Computers have been widely used in our national defence.(这个句子也可译成主动态的一 个表达被动含义的固定句型:Computers have found wide use in our national defence.) 最后举例说明了这种方法的应用。 Finally,the application of this method is illustrated with an example. 众所周知,分子是由原子组成的。 It is well known that(或:As is well known, )molecules consist of atoms.
