I thought it was just a summary of the paper.
我以为就是论文的总结。
Advisor
It's more than that. A good abstract has five key parts: background, purpose, method, results, and conclusion. Each serves a specific function.
不止如此。好的摘要包含五个关键部分:背景、目的、方法、结果和结论。每个都有特定功能。
You
How long should it be?
应该写多长?
Advisor
Usually 150-300 words. Every word must count. Avoid filler phrases like 'In this paper, we aim to...' — just state what you did and found.
通常150-300词。每个词都要有价值。避免'In this paper, we aim to...'这样的填充语——直接陈述你做了什么和发现了什么。
You
What tense should I use?
应该用什么时态?
Advisor
Present tense for background and conclusions, past tense for methods and results. And always write in the third person or passive voice.
背景和结论用一般现在时,方法和结果用一般过去时。始终用第三人称或被动语态。
