Issue 217
In order to produce successful original work, scholars and scientists must first study the successful work of others to learn what contributions remain to be made.
为了产生成功的作品,学者和科学家必须首先学习其他人的成功作品,进而知道还有哪些成就是没有做的。
The speaker suggests that scholars and scientists should study others’ works firstly and find out the remaining contribution in order to produce their own original work. I strongly agree with this assertion, since researching others’ work could gain not only the background knowledge, but also some inspirations.(观点是完全赞同 给出两个原因:背景知识 灵感)
1。没有人能不参考前人的贡献而在相关领域做出成绩
No one could produce any original work without assimilating the former contributions in relative fields. As a student, we have deep impressions about the arduous and dull tasks before doing a research, referring to many books or magazines and collecting much information, especially the students in social science. Why is this process necessary? One obvious explanation is that the background knowledge obtained from former contributions is important as a basement of the new research. There is one famous maxim which could support this statement clearly said by Newton that “If I have seen further than certain other men it is by standing upon the shoulders of giants”. It clearly explains the function about former contributions as a foundation of an original work and a stimulus of new ideas.(举了学生做实验的例子 牛顿的肩膀名言 我觉得论证的很充分了)
2。许多前人的前提,理论是不(完全)正确的,我们由此做出成绩
With the development of social conditions, many premises and assumptions in former contributions have been altered. Just these defects are where we could revise or change, and then possibly make our own contributions. Take economic theories for an instance. It is not exaggerated to draw a conclusion that nearly all theories in economy, especially in modern ages, are developed from revising or questioning basic assumptions in former theories. The H-O model(这个俺不懂啊 呵), a main theory in international economics, emphasizes the important function about factor endowments in international trade, whose basic assumptions are the countries as trade partners should have a similar production function, a consumer preference, and so on. However, these restrictions are too difficult to be satisfied in real world. It is Leontief, an American economist, who discovered that the reality contradicted with the theory, called the Leontief Paradox. As a result, he relaxed some assumptions in H-O model and obtained his own original contribution which is more suitable for checking out the current situation. Therefore, there are always some shortcomings in former works, one should firstly study successful works and try to find the place needed to be improved, and then obtain the original work.(看懂了!通过经济学理论纵向的对比,证明了ts 但是ts没放在第一句~~是吧?这倒不是问题)
3。界定original是发展而不是发明——摆在这里感觉有点问题
In a large sense, what is called “original” work is usually not a work fully new, but an improvement on the work done by previous scholars and scientists. Sciences have developed thousands years, inducing that it is too difficult to explore a fully new domain undiscovered by predecessors, unless one has extraordinary original creative ideas, such as Einstein’s principle of relativity. Most scholars and scientists are not as genius as Einstein, so the best way to gain their own work is to make an improvement on formers’ works, either works in their own field or other relative fields. Gravity Model, a current popular economic model using in calculating regional trade in regional organizations, comes from a basic theory in physics. This mode seems a fully original creation in economics, but in fact it is only an improvement on the basis of an existing theory referred from another field. Therefore, gaining a real original work, not being discovered by predecessors, becomes so difficult that many original works are nothing more than amendments from existing contributions.
To sum up, the feasible approach to gain an original work is to study others’ work at first in order to get background knowledge and inspirations, and then learn the remaining contributions.
In order to produce successful original work, scholars and scientists must first study the successful work of others to learn what contributions remain to be made.

我是这样看得:
这篇文章如果不看原issue题目的话,的确写得还不错!条理清晰,层次分明,虽然深度上还不太够~~~~前提是——不看原题目~~
我认为这个题目的理解是不是有问题?题目强调的是看先人的贡献以确定哪些是没有做的~~~也就是说,目的是去填补空白~~~~差不多相当于不要做重复的研究工作~~~如果这样看,那就跑题了~~~~God~~I hope not~
ft了~~~我去查查这个题目的理解~~~ |
