Theses,3.摘要的撰写,介绍选题的意义交代研究的方法描述得出的结论,例1:,Abstract:Three components of SLA research,input/output,internal/external factors and interlanguage system,have close relation with cognitive linguistics,and doing research on the process of SLA perspectives is of guiding improtance and of practical value to SLA and college English teaching.,例2：Modelling Learning Difficulty and Second Language Proficiency:The Differential Contributions of Implicit and Explicit Knowledge Rod Ellis University of Auckland,This article re-examines the question of what makes some grammatical structures more difficult to learn than others,arguing that this question can only be properly understood and investigated with reference to the distinction between implicit and explicit knowledge of a second language.Using a battery of tests that were designed to measure implicit and explicit L2 grammatical knowledge of seventeen grammatical structures(Ellis 2005),learning difficulty in relation to these two types of knowledge was investigated.,The results showed that structures that were easy in terms of implicit knowledge were often difficult in terms of explicit knowledge and sometimes vice versa and that,overall,there was no correlation between the rank orders of difficulty of seventeen grammatical structures for the two types of knowledge.A correlational analysis showed that the structures varied as to whether it was implicit or explicit knowledge of them that was related to a measure of general language proficiency.A regression analysis demonstrated that both types of knowledge predict general language proficiency.,例3：The“you(have)”Construction in Chinese:a Cognitive Analysis,In Chinese,the“you(have)+(neutral)n.”construction can be used as an adjective denoting positive degrees or properties.For example,(1)Li xiaojie you liandan，you shencai.Ms Li has face has body.Ms Li has a beautiful face and a good figure.,Previous researches(Zhang,2002,Shi,2004)have found that not all nouns used in this construction can lead to an adjectival interpretation.Shi(2004)points out that the noun in this construction refers to a social average,and the whole construction means something like“having something better(or more)than average”.For example,“you liandan”(have a face)actually means“having a better than average face”,or“looking pretty”.,But what special semantic properties do the nouns used in the constructions have?Why do such constructions usually suggest a positive(or better-than-average)interpretation?What are the cognitive bases for the interpretation?What have prompted the speaker to use a construction like this instead of explicitly using a positive adjective before the noun?These are the questions the present paper tries to focus on from a cognitive perspective.,Using data from“A dictionary of Modern Chinese”(2005),the author finds that nouns that can be used in this construction are restricted in number and have the following properties:(1)having to do with body parts,e.g.:三围(three measurements:the bosom,the waist and the bottom);脸蛋(face),脑袋(head),身材(figure),胸脯(bosom),etc;（2）denoting human properties,e.g.:地位(position),见解(opinion),价值观(value),觉悟(consciousness),礼数(manners),力气(strength),品格(personality),etc;（3）measurements and quantity,e.g.:尺度(measurements),水平(level),年纪(age),etc.,These nouns are neutral with respect to the degrees of the measurements or quantities(social average),but when used in the“you”(have)construction denoting possession,they imply a special degree,usually a positive one,or a better-than-average value.I argue that the positive interpretation of this type of“you”construction is the result of an interaction between the construction and the noun in question.As the nouns mostly denote properties that people desire,they normally lead to a positive interpretation when used with“you”(have).,Cognitively speaking,by making some common property a salient,prominent possession of someone concerned,the property immediately becomes the figure and the properties that other(average)people have become the background.The figure thus achieves special prominence in contrast to the background average.Using a neutral noun in the“you construction”and omitting a positive adjective increases cognitive processing effort but achieves the effect of brevity,indirectness and fuzziness.Such constructions are also used very often in parallels for rhythm and forcefulness.,修改意见,Thanks for this,and apologies for the delay.Let me say some things about the abstract,that I hope are useful.On your title,I think I would say The you(have)construction in Chinese.I think I would also add a Chinese character and a number superscript on you to indicate the tone.That,to my eyes,would make it look a little more serious.,First line,I would change the scare quotes.Id say something like the you(have)+(neutral)n.etc.(Same point as for title,really.)In example(1),I would embellish the Chinese sentence with tones and characters,just to make it look more serious.Change Previous researches to Previous research and have to hasSame remarks for you example in the last line of this paragraph.,Typically,one doesnt put questions in an abstract.I dont know whether I am old fashioned but it seems to me that abstracts should only contain declaratives.Maybe you could find an alternative way of expressing paragraph two.,These are just a few thoughts about the abstract.I think abstracts are incredibly hard things to write and they always take me days and days to get right.I think abstract readers(selection committees)like precise examples so that they can see the general drift of the analysis,if not the analysis itself,and personally I like abstracts that contain material that challenges some significant piece of theory,that is,that do not just present descriptions of things.Its nice to have a good argument sometimes.,4.关键词的选择,学科领域问题研究方法,社科学术论文中关键词的标引关键词

dare seize the fire?And what shoulder and what art Could twist the sinews of thy heart?And when thy heart began to beat,What dread hand and what dread feet?What the hammer?what the chain?In what furnace was thy brain?What the anvil?What dread grasp Dare its deadly terrors clasp?When the stars threw down their spears,And waterd heaven with their tears,Did He smile His work to see?Did He who made the lamb make thee?Tiger,tiger,burning bright In the forests of the night,What immortal hand or eye Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?虎，虎，于黑夜的林木 明亮如火团锦簇 是怎样的天工或神目 成就你惊人的雄姿？在多远的深渊或穹苍点燃 你双眼的烈焰？他挥动的是怎样的翅翼？捕捉火舌的是怎样的手指？用怎样的臂力和巧妙 把你的心脏打造？当你的心脏开始跳动 他有怎样的从容？是怎样的锤？是怎样的锁链？在怎样的熔炉里把你的脑筋锻炼？用怎样的铁砧？用怎样的掌力 紧紧握住这个致命的危机？当星辰纷纷把长矛抛纵 而且用泪水洒满天篷 他是否看着自己的作品微笑？他是否创制了你又创制羊羔？虎，虎，于黑夜的林木 明亮如火团锦簇 是怎样的天工或神目
