PARAPHRASING IN ENGLISH (PART 01) (DIỄN ĐẠT TƯƠNG ĐƯƠNG BẰNG TIẾNG ANH – PHẦN 01) (source: internet) Paraphrasing means changing the wording of a text so that it is significantly different from the original source, without changing the meaning Effective paraphrasing is a key academic skill needed to avoid the risk of plagiarism: it demonstrates your understanding of a source Paraphrasing and summarising are normally used together in essay writing, but while summarising aims to reduce information to a suitable length, paraphrasing attempts to restate the relevant information For example, the following sentence: “There has been much debate about the reasons for the industrial revolution happening in eighteen-century Britain, rather than in France or Germany” could be paraphrased: “Why the industrial revolution occurred in Britain in the eithteenth century, instead of on the continent, has been the subject of considerable discussion” Note that an effective paraphrase usually: - has a different structure to the original - has mainly different vocabulary - retains the same meaning - keeps some phrases from the original that are in common use e.g ‘industrial revolution’ or ‘eighteenth century’ EXERCISE 01: Read the text below and the evaluate the three paraphrases, giving reasons Which one is the best? THE CAUSES OF THE INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION Allen (2009) argues that the best explanation for the British location of the industrial revolution is found by studying demand factors By the early eighteenth century high wages and cheap energy were both features of British economy Consequently, the mechanisation of industry through such inventions as the steam engine and mechanical spinning was profitable because employers were able to economise on labour by spending on coal At that time, no other country had this particular combination of expensive labour and abundant fuel Paraphrase 1: A focus on demand may help to explain the UK origin of the industrial revolution At that time workers’ pay was high, but energy from coal was inexpensive This encouraged the development of mechanical inventions based on steam power, which enabled bosses to save money by mechanising production (Allen, 2009) Paraphrase 2: The reason why Britain was the birthplace of the industrial revolution can be understood by analysing demand in the early 1700s, according to Allen (2009) He maintains that, uniquely, Britain had the critical combination of cheap energy from coal and high labour costs This encourage the adoption of steam power to mechanise production, thus saving on wages and increasing profitability Paraphrase 3: Allen (2009) claims that the clearest explanation for the UK location of the industrial revolution is seen by examining demand factors By the eighteenth century cheap energy and high wages were both aspects of the British economy As a result, the mechanisation of industry through inventions such the steam engine and mechanical spinning was profitable because employers were able to save money on employees by spending on coal At that time, Britain was the only country with significant deposits of coal Paraphrase 1: ……………………………………………………………………… ……………………………………………………………………… Paraphrase 2: ……………………………………………………………………… ……………………………………………………………………… Paraphrase 3: ……………………………………………………………………… ……………………………………………………………………… ============================================== ANSWERS TO EXERCISE 01: Paraphrase 1: Quite good, but lack of precision (at that time) and unsuitable register (bosses) Paraphrase 2: The BEST paraphrase, with all main points included and a significantly different structure Paraphrase 3: A poor paraphrase, with only a few words changed and extra and inaccurate information added (Britain was the only coutry …) PARAPHRASING IN ENGLISH (PART 02) (DIỄN ĐẠT TƯƠNG ĐƯƠNG BẰNG TIẾNG ANH – PHẦN 02) (source: internet) TECHNIQUES FOR PARAPHRASING Changing vocabulary by using synonyms: Examples: argue => claim eithteenth century => 1700s wages => labour costs economise => saving Note: Do not attempt to paraphrase every word, since some have no true synonym, e.g demand, economy, energy Changing word class: explanation (n.) => explain (v.) mechanical (adj.) => mechanise (v.) profitable => profitability (n.) Changing word order: Example: … the best explanation for the British location of the industrial revolution is found by studying demand factors => A focus on demand may help explain the UK origin of the industrial revolution EXERCISE 02: Read the following text below and then practise the techniques illustrated above FOUR WHEELS GOOD The growth of the car industry parallels the development of modern capitalism It began in France and Germany, but took off in the United States There Henry Ford adapted the mocing production line from the Chicago meat industry to motor manufacturing, thus inventing mass production In the 1920s Alfred Sloan’s management theories helped General Motors to become the world’s dominant car company After the second world war the car makers focused on the styling of their products to encourage more frequent model changes From the 1970s there was criticism of the industry due to the ineffciency of most vehicles, which used petrol wastefully At the same time, trade unions became increasing militant in defence of their members’ jobs Today the industry owns some of the most famous brands in the world However, many car makers are currently threatened by increased competition and saturated markets A Find synonyms for the CAPITAL words The GROWTH of the CAR industry PARALLELS the DEVELOPMENT of MODERN capitalism It BEGAN in France and Germany, but TOOK
