Academic writing

I think academic writing is essential for a university student.

The essay can tell people especially your teacher what you have got in the lesson. Also when you write academic writing, you should have some reach. During your reach you may read many reference books and get the whole picture of what you is study. This can enhance your knowledge about your subject. Also it can make you to see the same thing in difference angles.

Beside that i think academic writing is your own work .Every words in the writing should be original. It should not be copied from others.” Plagiarism is academic misconduct". This can tell us that the important of Intellectual Property .We should respect what other people write. So if you need to use the words in book, you must include a reference section.These are some idea that I think about academic writing.

This is the first time I write a blog , let start with introduce myself.

I like listening to music especially some folk songs , I think they are better than pop music. I like Carpenters most because it make me feel relaxed.

Apart from listening to music, I also like reading books .I read all kinds of books including history, fung shui , novels. These books can give me a knowledge which I cannot learn in my school lessons. This makes me learn a lot during free time and helps me to explore more about the world.

I also like playing chess, especially Chinese chess. It can train my logical thinking. Those are the activities that can reduce the great study pressure. What is more is playing badminton.

The reason why I study this because I want to improve my writing skill. I am weak in vocabulary and gamer. I hope this course can help me above this area.After you reading this passage, I hope you can know more about me. You can write down your comment if any.
