Ⅱ.Paraphrasing
I.Thedefinitionofparaphrasing
Paraphrasingmeanstorestatetheideaofasentenceorpassageinadifferentandusuallysimplerway.
Languageteachersoftenemployparaphrasingtoexplaindifficultsentencestocheckstudents’understanding,andtotrainthemtoexpresscomplicatedideasinmorereadilyunderstandableterms.Moreimportantly,academicwritersemployparaphrasingtoborrowideasandpreviousresearchfindingsinthefieldofstudy.Itisoneofthethreeimportantmethodsofincorporatingoutsidesources.
Comparedwithdirectquotation,paraphrasingismoreflexible.Thisflexibilityexistsinatleastthreedifferentways:
1.Flexibilityinelaboratingtheoriginalideaifnecessaryforbetterandclearerunderstanding;
example1:
原文:
Universityregistrationprocedures-onceanightmareoflists,lines,andpaperstrips-havebeenstreamlinedbyusingcomputers.
译文:
Computershavelessenedthepainsoftheprocessofuniversityregistration:
itinvolvesfewerlists,lesswaiting,andmoreefficiency.
2.Flexibilityinemphasisingdifferentaspectsoftheoriginalmaterialtosuitaparticularpurpose.
example2:
"
Poetry-theheightofalanguage'
sexpression-isperhapsthehardestaspectofthelanguageforthesecond-languagelearnertoconquer."
译文:
Themostdifficultpartofalanguageforanon-nativespeakerispoetry,themostprofoundandsubtleformofexpression.
3.Flexibilityinmodifyingthetoneandstyleoftheoriginalsourceforabetterfitintothecontextofthewriting.
Paraphrasingisprobablymoreoftenemployedinacademicpapers
thandirectquotation.Thissectiondiscussesthecorrectwaysofusingparaphrasing.

"

II.Guidelinesforparaphrasing
Twosimplerulesgovernparaphrasing
1.Rule1
Alwaysgivecredittothesourceofideaormaterialbeingparaphrased.Failingtodosoisregardedasdishonesty.
Thefollowingexpressionsandstructuresmaybeusedtointroduceaparaphrase:
1)Inanarticle/astudybyX,...
2)AsXpointsout,...
3)Xstates...
4)AstudybyXindicatesthat...
5)Xhasdrawnattentiontothefactthat...
6)Xclaimsthat...
7)Xfound/discoveredthat...
8)ResearchbyXsuggeststhat...
9)Xarguesthat...
2.Rule2
Alwaysrestatetheideaindifferentvocabularyandsentencestructure.Amerechangeofafewwordswithoutchangingthestructuremayberegardedasplagiarismindisguise.
However,changingthevocabularydoesnotmeanthateverywordintheoriginalsentenceneedschanging.Ordinarywordsandspecialtechnicaltermsdonotrequireachange.Only“characterwords,”thatshowastrongpersonalpreferenceandthereforearelikeawriter’ssignature,needchanging.There“characterwords”aremostlysubstancewords—nouns,verbs,specialadjectives,andunusualadverbs.Theymayalsobetermsorjargonthathavebeengivensomespecialmeaningbytheoriginalwriter.
