1, abstract reading notes

Reading notes refer to the accurate copying of sentences and paragraphs related to one's study, work and research during reading. After extracting the original text, the source should be indicated, including the title, author, publishing unit, publication date, page number, etc. For reference and verification. Excerpts should be selective, depending on whether they are useful or not. The extracted notes can be divided into:

(1) index reading notes

(2) Transcribe the original reading notes

Copying the original text of reading notes means copying the wonderful sentences and paragraphs related to your own study and research in books and periodicals as the original materials for future application. To copy the original text, write a classified topic and indicate the source after the quotation.

2. Comment on reading notes

Critical reading notes are not only excerpts, but also their main views on the content and materials of reading materials, which naturally include expressing the author's feelings. Critical notes sometimes summarize the main points of excerpts. There are the following types of annotated notes:

(1) Title Note

Adding notes at the beginning of a book is the easiest way to take notes in reading. When reading, you should mark the important places in the book and the places you have the deepest experience with a pen in the blank space next to the words, or add comments in the blank space, or fold the pages and take notes on them. This method of taking notes can not only deepen your understanding of the contents of the book, but also provide convenience for future search.

(2) Overview

An outline describes the arguments and arguments of a book or an article in the form of an outline. The outline can briefly write the main contents according to the chapters and paragraphs of the original text. Outline reading notes can be written in the original sentence combined with your own language.

(3) Summary

Abstract is different from outline. The outline is the main point of writing paragraph by paragraph, and the abstract is the main point of writing a comprehensive full text. You can simply write the reading content in your own language. In addition to objectively describing the reading content, it also has the nature of some comments.

Another kind of abstract is a brief description of the content of an article or a book.

(4) Comment on reading notes

(5) Supplement the original reading notes

Reading notes that supplement the original text are used to supplement the original text after reading the original book or article. It should be noted that the original text is not added at will, but should be extended or expanded around the central idea.

3. Read your notes carefully.

Experiential reading notes are notes that you write down your knowledge, feelings, experiences, inspirations and gains after reading. They are as follows:

(2) Experience

Notes are also called post-reading. After reading it, write your own experiences, feelings and gains. These reading notes can be used to write your own reading experience, or to write comments on some arguments in the original text, or to make criticisms and discussions. Generally, writing such notes is mainly in your own language, and you can also quote the original text appropriately.

(3) Comprehensive reading notes

Comprehensive reading notes refer to notes that after reading several books or articles on the same subject, grasp the center to comment on your own views and opinions and put forward your own views.
