我的论文好不容易经过“怀胎十月”的艰苦期
终于等到文章投出去的时候了
又经历了焦虑紧张的漫长等待
收到编辑的回信
开心不过三秒又被“打回娘胎”了
审稿人却指出一大堆修改意见
谁懂啊！心情瞬间炸裂！
“手稿质量较差，语言表达不够清晰
实验结果缺乏充分证据支持，结论不可靠
需要进一步补充实验数据
实验结果与现有文献矛盾，需要重新解释”
尤其是那些要求补实验的
那时间成本可是太高了
补完实验后需要分析数据
然后撰写回复、修改稿件
至少得花费两三个月的时间才能完成
其实对于补实验这个问题
首先要弄清审稿人的真实意图
只要找到一点机会那就不要补实验
至少在Round 1中不要补！
当然
面对这些尖锐但必须解决的审稿意见
回复技巧和话术至关重要！
（敲重点！！！）
总体上要遵循礼貌原则
并逐条回答审稿意见！
01
分析审稿人心理
知己知彼，才能百战百胜。
在科研圈，有这么一群人，他们是审稿的老手，既当SCI期刊的副主编，又给好几个SCI期刊审稿。对他们来说，审英文稿件基本上是义务劳动，没啥钱拿，但审中文稿件能赚点小钱，一篇大概能有200块。其实，很多时候他们审稿，主要是想在期刊的主编眼前露个脸，增加自己的学术影响力。有时候，他们提的建议，连他们自己都觉得有点难以按要求去做，这不是故意找茬，只是想在主编前表现得更专业、更严谨一些以获得主编的芳心。
因此，当你收到审稿意见时，没必要每条意见都得照做。有些时候，对那些不太合理的要求，学会说不！不然就是too young too simple, too young too native.

回复审稿意见的基本原则
1. 谦虚接受建议，立即改正。非常感谢您提供宝贵意见。
2. 回复审稿意见需量大、格式美。首先要详尽，显示出对审稿人的尊重和认真态度，完成修改任务，满足审稿人虚荣心；其次要完整，方便审稿人查阅，提高审稿效率。但不可敷衍了事，要简明扼要、准确描述。第三要美观，配以精美图表辅助说明问题，既清晰表达又突显科研水平。
3. 处理审稿人错误意见时，不建议直接反驳。应道歉并解释不清之处，并说明已进行修改，具体细节如下。
4. 针对难以解释的内容，尽量采用图片、表格等方式进行说明。

回复审稿意见实操经验与模板
（1）让补实验时：
如果能补:The manuscript has been meticulously revised to address and clarify the concerns previously highlighted.
如果补的实验没有得到预期的结果(一般找文献来支撑相应结果):
As suggested by the referee, we have tried our best toverify XXX by_--_.However,no_signal has been detectedin our synthesis system.Other researchers also found that itis very difficult to obtain a well-resolved hyper fine structurefor__.As suggested in the literature,_;Someresearchers even think that it is impossible to obtain a well-resolved hyper fine structure by__
如果实验条件或者客观条件不允许:
We concur that additional research would be instrumental in elucidating the intricacies of interaction and enhancement. Currently, our capabilities are limited by the absence of the necessary tools to conduct such an in-depth study. We are optimistic about leveraging __ techniques in future endeavors to explore these aspects further. However, it is important to note that this line of inquiry extends beyond the current manuscript's scope, which is dedicated to addressing the fundamental questions concerning __.
Furthermore, we wish to highlight a recent development since our manuscript's submission: a study by Alex Bell and Martin Head-Gordon at Berkeley has demonstrated enhanced OER activity of Fe on Au203 through DFT calculations. This significant finding has been incorporated into our manuscript through the addition of the relevant citation and reference.
