2、ginal research results. In component parts. The most common labeling of the component parts, in the basic sciences, is Introduction, Methods, Results, and Discussion（hence, the acronym IMRAD) Also has the following elements: Title, Abstract (or sometimes a final summary instead), References and Ackn

3、owledgement. The title The title of a scientific paper should tell the reader what kind of work is being reported. The length of title Titles are too short “Studies on Mycobacterium tuberculosis” such a title was not very helpful to the potential reader. Titles are too long “On the addition to the m

4、ethod of microscopic research by a new way of producing color-contrast between an object and its background or between definite parts of the object itself” less meaningful than short ones. It sounds like a poor title, perhaps it would make a good abstract. Need for specific title “Action of antibiot

5、ics on Bacteria” Abstract An abstract should be viewed as a miniature version of the paper. Provide a brief summary of each of the main sections of the paper: IMRAD Abstract enables readers to identify the basic content of a document quickly and accurately, to determine its relevance to their intere

6、sts and thus to decide whether they need to read the paper in its entirely. Abstract should not exceed the length specified by the journal (commonly 250 words) The abstract should : 1) state the principal objectives and the scope of the investigation 2) describe the methods employed 3) summarize the

7、 results 4) state the principal conclusions Introduction Introduction should supply sufficient background information to allow the reader to understand and evaluate the results of the present study without needing to refer to previous publications on the topic. The introduction should also state bri

Besides, introduction is the proper place to define any specialized terms or abbreviations that you intend to

9、 use Materials and methods Give the full details of the methodology employed in the study Written in the past tense The main purpose of this section is to describe the experimental design and then provide enough detail so that a competent worker can repeat the experiments Also provide information th

If the results are unexpected or contradictory, you should attempt to explain why and possibly point out avenues of further research. Related literatures should be cited in this section for further support or

15、purposes of comparison What are the essential features of a good Discussion? Try to present the principles, relationships, and generalizations shown by the Results. Point out any exceptions or any lack of correlation and define unsettled points.
