一篇论文同时出现在两个期刊，一模一样，这算不算学术不端，请各位老师斧正。

Most grammar books list "that" / "which" / "when" / "where" /... as equals Speaking from experience I want to say the word "that" can and should be omitted whenever possible Much better to use "that" for emphasis than to use it just because you can In everyday English people often say "I think that..." when they mean to say "I think..." In those instances the extra "that" serves as a pause and helps the speaker gather his or her thoughts The extra "that" is not required but serves a vital purpose These sentences have the same meaning, so the word "that:" can be omitted: I love that song you sang / I love the song that you just sang / I love the song you sang Sometimes a whole series of prior events must be described before presenting the "here and now" of a story There would be a whole Paragraph One devoted to background information, after which** the word "that" will refer to Paragraph One EX: https://www.wired.com/story/what ... s-hell-pursue-next/ The story above is long (Sorry!), but really very well written... excellent for learning the skilled use of "that" !! ** Use "which" to refers one singular item Use "that" to refer to multiple items In this instance the word "which" refers to the word "paragraph" (singular) |
