问题 Choose the correct letter, A, B or C. [br] What will Kathy do next?
TUTOR: Before we start, Jimmy and Kathy, thanks for coming in today to talk about your current research paper! Well, I will also give you some suggestions for your future presentation later.
JIMMY: That’s great!
TUTOR: Okay, I have read the introductory chapter, and so far I like where you’re going with your research, you two.
KATHY: Thanks! What did you think of the procedure section?
TUTOR: I haven’t gotten there yet. I will get to that and the results and discussion section in a bit.
JIMMY: Oh. If you haven’t read the rest, are you just saying you like the introduction?
TUTOR: No - the layout is really well done. You have each section clearly marked and have the header and footer perfectly formatted, and your title page is right on the money. A lot of students have trouble with that one.
JIMMY: To be honest, we did refer a lot to the example we received in class.
TUTOR: That’s good to do for spacing and layout, as long as you’re not also copying the information. The background information is a little sparse, though. You may want to add to it.
KATHY: You think so? I was more worried about whether I had enough data.
TUTOR: You definitely need more background information. I would think about finding some more online articles or doing more research in the campus library.
JIMMY: That’s a good idea - we can go tomorrow. I find it too tough finding the subject matter in the online journal database.
TUTOR: I also like being able to flip through the physical journal as opposed to trying to scroll down on a computer.
KATHY: Me too. Oh, I almost forgot. I’ve included all of my citations in the abstract, but could you help me with the bibliography? I should be using a bibliography, right? Not an appendix?
TUTOR: Sure, I can help with that. Yes - for this type of scientific research paper, list all sources that you cite in the body of your paper in a bibliography. Go to the website I gave you last time to see the exact way to list each source.
KATHY: Okay, thanks. I’ll do that. We still have a lot of things to fix up.
TUTOR: Yeah, but there’s a lot of good stuff here to work with. So enough about the paper, how is the presentation going?
KATHY: Well, it’s alright. I am going to go try out the new presentation software while Jimmy’s working on the bibliography.
JIMMY: Yeah, we are hoping to make an animation of an actual pump but still have a lot to learn about how to do that.
KATHY: Who would have thought before we started this project that we would be able to recreate the motion of a pump? This stuff is just so interesting.
TUTOR: So glad to hear it!
JIMMY: Yeah, I am glad I took engineering this semester. I would definitely like to keep up with it.
TUTOR: You know, there’s an organisation called the Machine Engineer Society. You should look into joining it. You would need to score well in your engineering class to qualify, but I think you can do it.
KATHY: Hm, interesting. I will definitely check it out. I would really like to get in contact with some professionals in the engineering field to find out more. I don’t really know anyone in the field now, though.
JIMMY: I think if you keep meeting people in your classes and professors you’ll be able to get in contact with some really helpful people.
TUTOR: Well said, Jimmy. If engineering pumps is something you both are specifically interested in, make sure you stay up to date on new developments. In fact, you could visit the local water treatment facility periodically to see what new developments are going on.
KATHY: Hm, that may be a good way to get some practical experience.
TUTOR: Well, I don’t think they would let you handle any equipment by just visiting the facility. If you really want to get your hands dirty, so to speak, I would recommend instead seeking a summer internship.
KATHY: Wow, you have so many helpful suggestions for getting a leg up. Now if only you could tell me how to get my work published!
JIMMY: Haha, wouldn’t that be nice.
TUTOR: Well, honestly, all you really need to do is once you have a dissertation, present it. Present it often and to many audiences, and once you get feedback, adjust it. You’ll get published one day.
KATHY: Wow, this meeting has been truly inspiring. Thanks for your help!
