3.AttheLexicalLevel
Lexicologyisconcernedwiththestudyofthemeaningofwordsandlexicalitemsandalsothecompositionofwords.Wordsarethebasicunitsofmeaning.Therefore,whatwordstoselectinthecreationofatextwillbesignificantincreatingcertainstylisticeffect.Thistextisascientificpaper,soitshouldusestandardorcommonwords,andavoidusingcolloquial,non-standard,slang,informalwords.Thatiswhyitisfullofscientificwordsandtechnicaltermsofnaturalscience,suchasphotovoltaic,utility,mini-computer,semiconductormaterials,brittlephotovoltaiccells,silicon,crystals,polycrystalline,molds,etc.Inthebroadsense,thesescientificwordsaremainlytoprovideinformationforreaders.Inamoredetailedsense,thesescientificwordshavethefollowingfunctions:
