    This book is designed to enable non-native English speakers to write science research for publication in English. It can also be used by English speakers and is a practical, user-friendly book intended as a fast, do-it-yourself guide for those whose English language proficiency is above intermediate. The approach is based on material developed from teaching graduate students at Imperial College London and has been extensively piloted. The book guides the reader through the process of writing science research and will also help with writing a Master's or Doctoral thesis in English. Science writing is much easier than it looks because the structure and language are conventional. The aim of this book is to help the reader discover a template or model for science research writing and then to provide the grammar and vocabulary tools needed to operate that model. There are five units: Introduction, Methodology, Results, Discussion/Conclusion and Abstract. The reader develops a model for each section of the research article through sample texts and exercises; this is followed by a Grammar and Writing Skills section designed to respond to frequently-asked questions as well as a Vocabulary list including examples of how the words and phrases are to be used. Sample Chapter(s). Introduction: How to Use This Book (63 KB). Unit 1: How to Write an Introduction (301 KB). Contents: Introduction: How to Use This Book; How to Write an Introduction; Writing about Methodology; Writing about Results; Writing the Discussion/Conclusion; Writing the Abstract; Appendices. Readership: Non-native and overseas science, engineering, technology and medical professionals including graduate students, academics, researchers or industrial scientists interested in publishing in English science journals; English language professionals at universities and colleges worldwide Intro -- Contents -- Introduction: How to Use Th is Book -- Unit 1: How to Write an Introduction -- 1.1 Structure -- 1.2 Grammar and Writing Skills -- 1.2.1 Tense pairs -- 1.2.2 Signalling language -- 1.2.3 Passive/Active -- 1.3 Writing Task: Build a Model -- 1.3.1 Building a model -- 1.3.2 Key -- 1.3.3 The model -- 1.3.4 Testing the Model -- 1.4 Vocabulary -- 1.4.1 Vocabulary for the Introduction -- 1.5 Writing an Introduction -- 1.5.1 Write an Introduction -- 1.5.2 Key -- Unit 2: Writing about Methodology -- 2.1 Structure -- 2.2 Grammar and Writing Skills -- 2.2.1 Passives and tense pairs -- 2.2.2 Use of 'a' and 'the' -- 2.2.3 Adverbs and adverb location -- 2.3 Writing Task: Build a Model -- 2.3.1 Building a model -- 2.3.2 Key -- 2.3.3 The model -- 2.3.4 Testing the model -- 2.4 Vocabulary -- 2.4.1 Vocabulary task -- 2.4.2 Vocabulary for the Methodology section -- 2.5 Writing a Methodology Section -- 2.5.1 Write a Methodology section -- 2.5.2 Key -- Unit 3: Writing about Results -- 3.1 Structure -- 3.2 Grammar and Writing Skills -- 3.2.1 Sequence -- 3.2.2 Frequency -- 3.2.3 Quantity -- 3.2.4 Causality -- 3.3 Writing Task: Build a Model -- 3.3.1 Building a model -- 3.3.2 Key -- 3.3.3 The model -- 3.3.4 Testing the model -- 3.4 Vocabulary -- 3.4.1 Vocabulary task -- 3.4.2 Vocabulary for the Results section -- 3.5 Writing a Results Section -- 3.5.1 Write a Results section -- 3.5.2 Key -- Unit 4: Writing the Discussion/Conclusion -- 4.1 Structure -- 4.2 Grammar and Writing Skills -- 4.3 Writing Task: Build a Model -- 4.3.1 Building a model -- 4.3.2 Key -- 4.3.3 The model -- 4.3.4 Testing the model -- 4.4 Vocabulary -- 4.4.1 Vocabulary task -- 4.4.2 Vocabulary for the Discussion/Conclusion -- 4.5 Writing a Discussion/Conclusion -- 4.5.1 Write a Discussion/Conclusion -- Unit 5: Writing the Abstract -- 5.1 Structure -- 5.2 Grammar and Writing Skills.

    This paper proposes a new analytical framework with which to analyze the determinants of global CO2 emissions. It contributes to the existing literature by examining the determinants of CO2 emissions using a flexible functional form (transcendental logarithmic model), taking into account the presence of dynamic effects and allowing for heterogeneity in the sample of countries. The sample covers 121 countries and the period analyzed extends from 1975 through 2003. Two main results emerge. First, a static specification is rejected against a dynamic model. Second, the data also reject a general specification for all countries; hence slopeheterogeneity in the estimated coefficients has to be modeled. Conversely, the STIRPAT model is generally accepted for high-income countries, whereas for developing countries several interaction terms also play a role in explaining CO2 emissions. -- CO2 emissions ; developing countries ; panel data ; population growth ; urbanization

    Gen 1:1-2:4a (P) and 2:4b-25 (J) are not interested in reporting the manner in which the creation was accomplished. The details in these passages and the passages as a whole are addressed to its ancient (and modern) recipient in order to introduce him to creation as a cosmological structure on the one hand and to the theological intention of the pentateuchal source concerned on the other hand.

Complex procedures of textual production are identified: among which entire sequences as well as the "evenemential" level of narrative fade away in favor of its cognitive dimension. This semiotic investigation is accompanied by a challenge to certain conventions of literary criticism: dialogue, the locus

    This study investigates how consumers value carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions of food by conducting a choice experiment before an ecolabel is attached on some foods in Japan. Participants are asked to buy some Satsuma mandarin oranges based on price and CO2 emissions and take them home. The following results are obtained: (i) the willingness-to-pay (WTP) estimate for the reduction of 1 g CO2 emissions per 100 g of Satsuma mandarin oranges is 0.417 JPY; (ii) people below 30 years, who are significantly conscious about the environment, do not choose Satsuma mandarin oranges based on CO2 emissions and have less value for this; and (iii) people above 30 years, who are environmentally friendly, choose the oranges based on price and have more value for this, although this implies that they do not relate food to CO2 emissions. Thus, since whether or not people select food based on CO2 emissions differs across ages, each age group has a different approach to reducing the CO2 emissions of food. -- carbon dioxide emissions ; choice experiment ; consumer preference ; ecolabeling ; food labeling ; fruit

    From 1660 to c 1700, England set her eyes on Spain and on the seventeenth-century Spanish comedy of intrigue with an aim to import new plots and characters that might appeal to the Anglo-Saxon audience. As a consequence, Hispanic drama in translation enjoyed a period of relative popularity never to be repeated until the turn of the twenty-first century. By analysing a corpus of translated classical Spanish plays intended for performance, this book aims to show the strategies chosen by the translators concerned. Hence, many aspects present in the source texts are naturalized in order to meet the demands of the target culture, while others are kept to clarify the "Spanishness" of the text.

    Motorised individual transport strongly contributes to global CO2 emissions, due to its intensive usage of fossil fuels. Current political efforts addressing this issue (i.e. emission performance standards in the EU) are directed towards car manufacturers. This paper focuses on the demand side. It examines whether CO2 emissions per kilometre is a relevant attribute in car choices. Based on a stated preference experiment among potential car buyers from Germany, different mixed logit specifications are estimated. In addition, distributions of willingness to pay measures for an abatement of CO2 emissions are obtained. The results suggest that the emissions performance of a car matters substantially, but its consideration varies heavily across the sampled population. In particular, some evidence on gender, age and education effects on climate concerns is provided. -- CO2 emissions ; Willingness to pay ; Passenger cars ; Stated preferences ; Mixed logit

    "This paper assesses the potential impacts of the removal of agriculture trade distortions using a newly developed dataset and methodological approach for evaluating the global poverty and inequality effects of policy reforms. It finds that liberalization of agriculture and food could increase global extreme poverty (US$1 a day) by 0.2 percent and lower moderate poverty (US$2 a day) by 0.3 percent. Beneath these small aggregate changes, most countries witness a substantial reduction in poverty while South Asia-where half of the world's poor reside-experiences an increase in extreme poverty incidence due to high rates of protection afforded to unskilled-intensive agricultural sectors. The distributional changes are likely to be mild, but exhibit a strong regional pattern. Inequality is likely to fall in regions such as Latin America, which are characterized by high initial inequality, and rise in regions like South Asia, characterized by low initial inequality.

    The Oresteian trilogy (Agamemnon, Libation Bearers, Eumenides) established the themes of Greek tragedy - the inexorable nature of Fate, the relationship between justice, revenge, and religion. The plays dramatize the murder of Agamemnon by his wife Clytemnestra, the revenge of her son Orestes, and his judgement by the court of Athens.
