has been published.,Tense in IMRAD,1.Most of the Abstract should be in the past,tense,because you are referring to your own present results.,Likewise,the Materials and Methods and Results shoud be in the past tense,as you described what you did and what you found.,2.On the other hand much of the Introduction and much of the Discussion should be in the present tense,because these often emphasize

paper presents.);如果采用“研究导向”,则使用过去式(如:This study investigated.)。,概述实验程序、方法和主要结果时,通常用过去式如:we evaluated a new application of guayule resin as a plant-based material for use in the microencapsulation of bioactive volatiles for non-food purposes.。,叙述结论或建议时,可使用现在式、臆测动词或may,should,could等助动词,如:We suggest that climate instability in the early part of the last interglacial may have.。,Introduction(引言),主要叙述自己,写作的目的,或,研究的宗旨,,使读者了解和评估研究成果。,主要内容,包括:,介绍相关研究的历史、现状、进展,说明自己对已有成果的看法,以往工作的不足之处,以及自己所做研究的创新性,或重要价值;说明研究中要解决的问题、所采取的方法,必要时须说明采用某种方法的理由;介绍论文的主要结果和结构安排,引言的时态运用,叙述有关现象或普遍事实,和,对其他人研究成果的引用时,,句子的主要动词多使用现在时,如:“little
