Abstract：
The presenter would introduce and discuss two methodologies in writing and publishing scientific research papers and technical reports: broad-to-narrow and narrow-to-broad approaches. The application of broad-to-narrow method focuses on the underlying logic of scientific research articles in English, a strategy for turning a set of experiment results into a paper, and the specific English language features commonly used in each section of published articles. The practice of narrow-to-broad approach begins with the most fundamental unit of a paper—the sentences and complex sentences, moves on to paragraphs concentrating on a single point of view, and finally gets to the big picture—how to organize a more in-depth and multi-paragraph argument—the very essential part of a scientific research paper. A significant number of examples will be used to enhance the understanding and application of these writing principles, techniques, and skills in the preparation for publishing research papers in English.
