To enter a new research field or direction, we should always start with reading a large number of literature. But reading literature alone can not make yourself have a deep understanding of a problem. This is because after reading, there is no comprehensive thinking about the main content of the document, forming a written view, basically "when it is reasonable, it can not be remembered after reading". Of course, it is necessary to make a literature review if you want to have a deep understanding of a problem.

The writing styles of Chinese literature review and English literature review are different. When writing literature reviews in different languages, they should pay attention to each other so that people of different languages can adapt to their own reading habits.

The differences between Chinese and English literature review are mainly reflected in the fact that the research content is written according to the categories. For example, writing a new material function will introduce the research situation in various categories in detail from the aspects of composition, physical and mechanical properties, microstructure and functional characteristics of materials. The writing form in each category is a general sentence summarizing the main meaning, followed by some "what experiment someone did, what results, what conclusions, and who did what experiments, and got the opposite or the same results or conclusions". The result of this writing is more objective description, put there, let everyone see. As for what feeling after seeing, different people see benevolence, wise people see wisdom. Of course, in addition to this factual writing, the author will also put forward personal views, but relatively few.

The writing of Chinese review is very taboo to express the English review in a listed way. The feeling of the listed expression to the reader is that there is no thinking and no "soul". Of course, the first time I wrote a Chinese review, I was listed, and the results were approved for nothing and nothing new. Chinese review writing is more logical, from a certain point of view as the starting point, around this entry point for literature search and processing. The writing process can not be in the style of "what experiment did someone do and what results or conclusions have been obtained". Instead, the relevant influencing factors, rules and mechanisms of the topic should be summarized around this entry point. The results of the experiments by others are integrated into the expression of each paragraph, and not specifically list what they have done, But it presents the results. Of course, the soul of Chinese review should refine the theme from its own point of view, and put forward new questions, new research thoughts and opinions after introducing the findings made by others. Finally, the Chinese review, which reflects the process of the problem of the C-section, analysis and reorganization.

In short, English review focuses on objective and listed expression, reflecting the different opinions and wisdom of the wise. Chinese review should find a good entry point, reflect thoughtful, finishing point. There may be limitations in the above views. Please criticize and correct them.
