responses were tallied and grouped Explanation: 1) 統計 here doesn't mean any statistics at all, it's literally just counting the responses 2) 歸納 could mean a number of things, but often it's division into groups by basic demographic data (gender, age, income, etc.). Again, this is all pre-statistics. None of this really counts as "analysis". 3) Don't use "after", it's a poor sentence form. Academic literature should be expressed in the shortest, clearest way possible. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 day6 hrs (2012-07-19 15:58:40 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- You're very welcome. Academic writing is very easy to find - abstracts are all free, so just search Google scholar. As to why "after" is wrong... it's just redundant. It doesn't mean the same as 经, and it's not a natural form for this kind of sentence. You can use "then": responses were tallied and grouped, then... But you're going to run into real trouble with this job if you don't know how to write academically. If you're going to translate a paper, you really have to a) understand it and b) know what an English paper looks like. Otherwise the results will be unreadable. |
