1、调整语言顺序。
即所谓的主谓宾,定状补的顺序。这个方法比较多,比如长句拆为短句,短句融为长句,再比如主动变被动等。这些方法应该是人人熟知的。
例:In A cancer, B regulates cell migration through regulating C.
降重:B regulates cell migration through regulating C in A cancer.
2、增减法,删除或者扩充语句。
多数查重软件的原理是连续重复8字以上认定为重复(8只是个代数,具体数值各个查重系统可能不一样),所以我们只要打破8字连在一起即可,可以通过增加或删除内容来实现。
例1:High expression of A can predict poor overall survival and high mortality rate.
降重:High expression of A indicates poor survival and high mortality.
例2:A is an independent prognostic biomarker in patients with LUAD.
降重:A is suggested as an independent prognostic biomarker in patients with LUAD.
这个方法不仅适用于对单词的删减,也适用于短语、状语等。
例3:A, highly expressed in tumor tissue/a ferroptosis-related lncRNA/ a member of G-protein coupled receptor, is an independent prognostic biomarker in patients with LUAD
3.切换语态。
英语中有两种语法语态:主动语态和被动语态。在主动语态中,句子的主语正在做某事,而在被动语态中,有某事正被施加在句子的主语上。
为了减少重复,可以将句子从主动语态改写成被动语态,反之亦然。
改写前:Then,qPCR was performed on the samples.
改写后:Then, we performed qPCR on the samples.
4、二次翻译法。
顾名思义,就是将重复率高的英文用翻译软件翻译为中文,再用翻译软件翻译为英文,有时候会与原本的句子有较大差别,但基本意思不会变,自己再手动更改一下语法错误之处就可以了。
5.合并或拆分句子。
如果有一个长句与文献重复,可以把它分成多个短小的句子,或者如果有一个短句被标为与文献重复,可以将它与相邻的句子合并起来以降低重复率。在某些情况下,可以同时使用这两种策略。如下例所示:
改写前:When we surveyed the literature, we found 12 studies related to type 1 diabetes.We also found 14 related to type 2 diabetes, so taken together we found 26 relevant studies.
改写后:When we surveyed the literature, we found 12 studies related to type 1 diabetes and 14 related to type 2 diabetes. Taken together, we found 26 relevant studies.
6.使用多种过渡词。
这是第一个技巧的变体,但重要到足以单独来说一说。
过渡词用于将句子连接在一起,帮助读者理清文稿的逻辑,包括moreover, furthermore, however, after, additionally, next, finally等等这些词。
虽然并非所有的过渡词都可以互换,但在方法部分交替地使用它们不仅可以降低重复率,还可以使文稿更易于阅读。
改写前:First, we collected the samples. After that, we weighed them. We also measured their diameters. Finally, we disposed of them in accordance with the laboratory’s safety guidelines.
改写后:To begin, we collected the samples. Then, we weighed them and measured their diameters before we disposed of them in accordance with the laboratory’s safety guidelines.
结语:使用上述这些技巧,你可以通过对论文进行改写降低重复率,确保论文顺利进入同行评审进程!
