Writing practice

Citing Sources: 据…研究, 正如…所言, 转引自

You're writing a term paper on whether smartphones harm teenagers' sleep. Write the literature-review paragraph (200–400 characters): summarise what three earlier studies (real or invented) found, how they relate to each other, and what gap remains. Cite them in Chinese academic style.

  • Citation frames: 据…研究 / 调查, …指出, 正如…所言, 转引自
  • Author and year in brackets (李华等,2018)
  • Relations between studies (与此一致, 然而, 与…不同)
  • The research gap (有待, 尚未, 鲜有研究)

Pick with a tap, a number key or Space. A Chinese keyboard on your device works in the box below too.
