Key points for proofreading technology reading materials: 1. Text 【 Buke printing factory 】
The text of technology reading materials is mostly simple and clear, with few empty words and floating words, but there are also a few authors who are not good at choosing words and sentences, and the language and writing are difficult to understand. If you encounter this situation during proofreading, you can request the editor's consideration.
The frequent occurrence of technological terms and professional terms in technological reading materials is crucial for the correct expression of content. Some nouns seem to have only one word difference, but they have two completely different meanings and cannot be confused. We not only need to proofread according to the original manuscript, but also keep in mind the context and pay attention to any clerical errors. There is also a phenomenon of multiple objects, which should be noted. For example, "ascorbic acid", also known as "vitamin C", is also written as "vitamin C. In a book, the correct use and unification of the names of units of measurement and measurement should be unified, which is a key point to pay attention to when proofreading. It is particularly important to prevent the use of old names. Due to the difficulty of people returning from their old habits, the outdated names "sheng" (should be referred to as "sheng") and "meter" (should be referred to as "meter") still occasionally appear in newspapers, films, and television. As scientific and technological books and magazines, it is even more important to avoid similar problems.
Proofreading numbers must be responsible for the original manuscript and ensure absolute accuracy (including decimal points related to numbers).
There are many lessons to be learned from slight errors in numbers, ranging from causing losses to accidents.
There are many types of foreign languages in science and technology reading materials, so it is important to distinguish between different languages. In addition to proofreading correctly, its uppercase, lowercase, bold, and italicized characters cannot be ignored. Sometimes a slight negligence in this regard can lead to major mistakes. For example, when the two Latin letters C and O start, Co (upper case and lower case) is the symbol for the chemical element diamond, while CO (both upper case) represents carbon monoxide.
