研究生科技英语课程——科技英语写作 邵宗平 南京工业大学化学化工学院 材料化学工程国家重点实验室 科技论文的标题 How to prepare the title? 科技论文的标题 First impressions are strong impressions; a title ought therefore to be well studied, and to give, so far as its limits permit, a definite and concise indication of what is to come. —T. Clifford Allbutt 先入为主。因此，论文的标题应最大限度地对文章内容给出明确而简洁的指示。 科技论文的标题 Importance of the Title Perhaps few people, if any, will read the entire paper, but many people will read the title, either in the original journal or in one of the secondary (abstracting and indexing) publications.

Example Most excessively long titles contain waste words. Often, these waste words appear right at the start of the title, words such as A study of, Studies on, Investigations on, and Observations on. 科技论文的标题 An opening A, An, or The is also a waste word. Example 1 标题可改为： Selectivity in direct synthesis of H2O2 from H2 and O2: role of catalyst on reaction kinetics Example 2 标题可改为： Novel preparation of thin dense Pd membrane on macroporous stainless steel tubular filter Example 3 标题可改为： Dehydrogenation of ethanol in a palladium membrane reactor 科技论文的标题 科技论文的标题 Need for specific titles Example: Properties of ZSM-5 molecular sieve Catalytic properties of ZSM-5 molecular sieve Catalytic properties of ZSM-5 molecular sieve on cracking of cumene Deactivation of ZSM-5 molecular sieve on catalytic cracking of cumene Bad title: A study of the deactivation of the ZSM-5 molecular sieve on the catalytic cracking of the cumene 科技论文的标题 Exercise: pH值对沉淀法制备的碳酸钙比表面的影响 Effect of pH on specific surface area of calcium carbonate prepared by precipitation 以多孔陶瓷为载体的钯—银合金膜的制备和表征 Preparation and characterization of Pd-Ag alloy membranes supported on porous ceram
