外国语学院本科生毕业论文引用及参考文献格式要求（MLA论文格式） MLA（Modern Language Association）为美国现代语言协会制定的论文指导格式，在一般书写英语论文时应当使用MLA格式来保证学术著作的完整。1. MLA 文献引用格式的基本描述： 作者在正文中用括号夹注的形式注明参考文献的简要出处，即（作者姓氏+页码）。Ancient writers attributed the invention of the monochord to Pythagoras, who lived in the sixth century BC (Marcuse 197). 参考文献部分，按作者姓氏的字母顺序排列），包括作者信息，书名信息，和出版信息（出版地：出版社，出版年）三个部分。三个部分之间用“.”分开。Marcuse, Sibyl. A Survey of Musical Instruments. New York: Harper, 1975.2. 引语（Quotations）的格式 短于三行的一句或者短于一句的引语应该写入正文，并且用双引号标明。 双引号表示直接引语，单引号只用来标注引语中的引语。 引语不得使用斜体或粗体来表示（书名除外）。在任何情况下（即使引语仅仅只有一个单词）： 句末、小句末的句号和逗号都必须放在引号之内（无论单引号还是双引号）， 冒号（“:”）和分号（“;”）都必须放在引号之外， 引文是疑问句则问号应放在引号之内，否则问号（“?”）应放在引号之外。 三行或以上的引语作为独立的引语段（block quotation）。 引语段可以用单倍行距，但其首行和末行应与正文空1.5行。 引语段左右两边均应较正文缩进5格或1个制表符（TAB）的距离。 如果引语段原为一自然段，则其首行应进一步缩进4至5格或1个制表符的距离。 引语段的段首和段尾不得使用引号。 引语段的字体必须与正文相同。 正文中的中文引文应提供英文译文。3夹注（Parenthetical Citation）的格式： 引文出处使用括号夹注的方法（一般不使用脚注或者尾注）。正文中，括号夹注（作者姓氏+页码）放在句末标点以内，但不得放在引文的引号以内。引语段（block quotation）的括号夹注不属于单句，因而不得将其放在句末的标点以内。直接引语都必须标明页码，以便读者查找。3.1 引用整篇文献的观点引用整篇文献（即全书或全文）观点时一般不用标注页码，有两种情况， 一种是作者的姓氏在正文中没有出现，如：Charlotte and Emily Bronte were polar opposites, not only in their personalities but in their sources of inspiration for writing (Taylor). 另一种情况是作者的姓氏已在正文同一句中出现，按MLA的规范不需要使用括号夹注，如：Taylor claims that Charlotte and Emily Bronte were polar opposites, not only in their personalities but in their sources of inspiration for writing.3.2. 引用文献中具体观点或文字引用文献中某一具体观点或文字时必须注明该观点或者该段文字出现的页码，没有页码是文献引用不规范的表现。若作者的姓氏已在正文同一句中出现，则不需要在括号夹注中重复。According to Marcuse, Ancient writers attributed the invention of the monochord to Pythagoras, who lived in the sixth century BC (197).3.2.1 引用多位作者写作的同一文献二至三位作者：Among intentional spoonerisms, the “punlike metathesis of distinctive features may serve to weld together words etymologically unrelated but close in their sound and meaning” (Jakobson and Waugh 304).（如果有三位作者，在括号夹注中应用逗号分隔他们的姓氏，如：(Alton, Davies, and Rice 56)。）The study was extended for two years, and only after results were reviewed by an independent panel did the researchers publish their findings (Blaine et al. 35).3.2.2 引用同样姓氏的不同作者假若两个或两个以上的作者有同样的姓氏，则括号夹注中应同时使用他们名字的首字母，如：Although some medical ethicists claim that cloning will lead to designer children (R. Miller 12), others note that the advantages for medical research outweigh this consideration (A. Miller 46).引用中文著作或期刊时同姓作者的情况较多，应在括号夹注中使用他们名字的首字母加以区分，如： (S.R. Wang 26) (J.X. Wang 30)3. 3 引用团体作者（corporate author）引用团体作者的作品，括号夹注中应使用团体的名称，如： It was apparent that the American health care system needed “to be fixed and perhaps radically modified” (Public Agenda Foundation 4).3.4 引用无作者文献引用无作者文献，如果文献标题没有出现在正文里，则括号夹注中应使用该标题或者（如果标题过长的话）使用该标题中的关键词组，如： An anonymous Wordsworth critic once argued that his poems were too emotional (“Wordsworth Is A Loser” 100).3.5 引用同一作者的多篇文献按MLA规范，引用同一作者的多篇文献时，在括号夹注中应加入文献标题中的关键词组，如：Lightenor has argued that computers are not useful tools for small children (“Too Soon” 38), though he has acknowledged that early exposure to computer games does lead to better small motor skill development (“Hand-Eye Development” 17). 或者Computers are not useful tools for small children (Lightenor, “Too Soon” 38), though he has acknowledged that early exposure to computer games does lead to better small motor skill development (Lightenor, “Hand-Eye Development” 17). 或者Lightenor has argued that computers are not useful tools for small children, though he has acknowledged that early exposure to computer games does lead to better small motor skill development (“Too Soon” 38 and “Hand-Eye Development” 17). 3.6 同时引用不同作者的多篇文献括号夹注可以包括不同作者的多篇文献，文献按作者姓氏的字母顺序排列（注意分号的使用），如：The dangers of mountain lions to humans have been well documented (Rychnovsky 40; Seidensticker 114; Williams 30).3.7 引用非直接文献（indirect source）论文应尽可能避免使用非直接文献（即二级文献secondary source），但在无法找到直接文献（即一级文献primary source）的情况下，引文可以从非直接文献中析出，例如：Samuel Johnson admitted that Edmund Burke was an “extraordinary man” (qtd. in Boswell 2: 450).（注意：“qtd. in”中的字母“i”不得大写。）引用非直接文献以后，在正文后参考文献著录中只需列入该非直接文献的条目3.8 引用文学作品和经典文献按MLA的规范，有几种情况括号夹注内不标页码。在引用剧本时应标出引文的幕、场、行，如： In his famous advice to players, Shakespeares Hamlet defines the purpose of theater, “whose end, both at the first and now, was and is, to hold, as twere, the mirror up to nature” (3.2.21-23).这里的括号夹注表示引文来自剧本第三幕第二场的21至23行。（注意标点的使用。）在引用诗歌时应标出引文的节、行，如：When Homers Odysseus comes to the hall of Circe, he finds his men “mild / in her soft spell, fed on her drug of evil” (10.209-11).这里的括号夹注表示引文来自诗歌第10节的209至211行。对不分节的诗第一次引用时应说明括号里标的是行数，使用“line”，以后的引用则不需再说明。例如：第一次引用：(lines 5-8)以后的引用：(12-13)在引用有章节、分册的小说的时候，应标出引文所在的页码、册数、章节，如：One of Kingsolvers narrators, teenager Rachel, pushes her vocabulary beyond its limits. For example, Rachel complains that being forced to live in the Congo with her missionary family is “a sheer tapestry of justice” because her chances of finding a boyfriend are “dull and void” (117; bk. 2, ch. 10).例子里的括号夹注表示引文来自该书第二册第十章的第117页。（注意标点和缩略语的使用。）在引用圣经、可兰经等经典文献的时候，应标出引文的篇、章、节，如：Consider the words of Solomon: “If your enemies are hungry, give them food to eat. If they are thirsty, give them water to drink” (Bible, Prov. 25.21).例子里的括号夹注表示引文来自旧约圣经的箴言篇第25章第21节。圣经各篇的缩写有标准的写法，因而使用时应该注意核对。3.9 对引语文字的更改直接引语如出现在正文中间，使用引语的句子不得违反英语语法，不得出现“句中句”。为了使含直接引语的句子合乎语法，往往有必要对引语的文字作一定的更改。如果要删除引语中个别词句，可以用省略号（ellipses“”）取代删除的词句。如果要加入或者更改个别单词或者词组，则可以将需要加入或者更改的单词或词组放在方括号（square brackets“ ”）以内。例如：删除词句：He stated, “The placebo effect, . disappeared when behaviors were studied in this manner” (Smith 276), but he did not clarify which behaviors were studied.添加词组：Smith (276) found that “the placebo effect, which had been verified in previous studies, disappeared when his own and others behaviors were studied in this manner.” 无论删改还是添加字词均不得变更引语的原意。 注意：如果删除是在句内，应该空一格以后再加省略号。如果删除是在一句整句以后，则应在该整句最后的标点（句号、问号或惊叹号）不空格直接加省略号。省略号应该用三个句点。3.10 引用网络和电子出版物引用网络文献和电子出版物时文中夹注的基本原则与引用其他文献时是基本一致的。引用网络和电子文献观点时有两种情况:3.10.1 一种是引用网络与电子文献的全文观点（或做整体描述）,如果作者的姓氏或研究项目/主题网站的名称已在正文同一句中出现，按MLA的规范不需要使用括号夹注，如：The database Duecento is an invaluable source for texts of medieval Itanlian poetry.Romance Languages and Literature Home Page has links to many helpful resources.3.10.2 另一种情况是引用部分观点，如果作者的姓氏或研究项目/主题网站的名称在正文中没有出现，那么在括号夹注中需注明作者或项目名称，文章名称，段落。One online film critic stated that Fitzcarraldo is “.a beautiful and terrifying critique of obsession and colonialism” (Garcia, “Herzog: a Life,” par. 18). （其中“par.”指网页上的段落）Hypertext, as one theorist puts it, is “all about connection, linkage, and affiliation” (Moulthrop, “You Say,” par.19). 如果作者姓氏已给出，则夹注中只标注所缺项目：“The debut of Julius Caesar,” according to Sohmer, “proclaimed Shakespeares Globe a theater of courage and ideas, a place where an audience must observe with the inner eye, listen with the inner ear” (par. 44).4. 脚注（footnotes）的使用在MLA的规范里，脚注只应在下列两种情况中考虑使用：（1） 提供有一定重要性、但写入正文将有损文本条理和逻辑的解释性信息；（2） 提供因篇幅过大不宜使用括号夹注注明的文献出处信息。5 参考文献著录的格式参考文献著录在MLA规范里叫做Works Cited。撰写论文时应仔细阅读MLA的规范手册，本节提供部分著录实例供参考。5.1 著录已出版的文章一位作者写的文章Most, Andrea. “ We Know We Belong to the Land: The Theatricality of Assimilation in Rodgers and Hammersteins Oklahoma!” PMLA 113 (1998): 77-89.两位作者写的文章（第二位作者先名后姓）White, Sabina, and Andrew Winzelberg. “Laughter and Stress.” Humor 5 (1992):343-55.两位以上的作者写的文章Mascia-Lees, Frances E., Pat Sharpe, and Colleen B.
