文章内引用的基本格式

注明作者和文章页数。对于书籍、文章和绝大多数纸版资料，需要注明作者的姓氏和引用摘取的页码范围。这些信息可以写在圆括号或句中，也可以两种形式结合。
2
使用插入式引用。^{[1]
X
研究来源}在引用或释义之后添加一对圆括号，写入作者姓氏和信息来源的页码。
- When all is said and done, however, “in-text citations are fairly easy to write” (Doe 17).
- In-text citations are not as difficult as they may seem according to some sources (Doe 17).
3
在句中注明作者和出处。^{[2]
X
研究来源}如果你已经在句中标注作者姓氏和引用或释义的来源，就不需要再在括号内提及以上信息。引用出处的位置可标记到页或段落，但至少要达到这样的精确度。
- In the first paragraph of his article, Doe notes, “in-text citations are fairly easy to write.”
- In the first paragraph of his article, Doe explains that in-text citations are not as difficult to write as they may seem.
4
在句中注明作者，但在括号内注明来源。如果你想在句中交代作者姓氏，那么在括号内只需要标明引用或释义的来源页码。这些括号应该紧跟在引用的信息之后。
- According to Doe, “in-text citations are fairly easy to write” (17).
- Doe explains that in-text citations are not as difficult to write as they may seem (17).

来源于网络资源的文章内引用

1
电子书与纸版书的引用方式相同。如果电子书或其他网络资源含有作者姓名和页码，这两者的标注方式与纸版书完全相同。
- In spite of arguments to the contrary, some claim that “the rules for in-text citations can get complicated once you start getting into special circumstances” (Smith 23).
- Some may argue otherwise, but Smith insists that “the rules for in-text citations can get complicated once you start getting into special circumstances” (23).
2
如果需要，用引用来源名称代替页码。如果网络资源没有页码，在圆括号内标明网页来代替。
- Guidelines and rules for MLA citations can be found in a variety of places (Johnson, “Writing Essays”).
- Johnson notes that guidelines for MLA citations can be found in many places (“Writing Essays”).
3
如果需要，用引用来源名称来代替作者姓名。^{[3]
X
研究来源} 如果网络资源中未出现注明姓名的作者，在括号内或句内标明网页。
- In spite of any special circumstances, most MLA in-text citations are “straightforward and simple to remember” (“MLA Citations” 3).
- In “MLA Citations,” the author notes that most MLA in-text citations are “straightforward and simple to remember” (3).

特殊情况下文章内引用的规则

1
当资料有两到三位责任作者时，列出每一位。如果文章或书籍有多位作者，在引用中要列出每一位作者的姓氏。然而这种方式只适用于作者有两到三位的情况。
- Smith and Hoffman insist that “most academic writers get used to the MLA style guide once they have used it a few times” (62).
- Some students can balance knowing multiple style guides while others find it difficult to remember the specifics of each one (Johnson, Smith, and Doe 102).
2
当责任作者有4位及以上时需要精简作者信息。如果文章或书籍作者超过3位，只需要在引用中注明第一作者的姓氏。其余作者要以缩略词 “et al”来概括。
- The MLA, APA, and Chicago style guides all share similarities, but each one also has its differences (Doe, et al. 44).
- As noted by Doe, et al., the MLA, APA, and Chicago style guides all share similarities, but each one also has its differences (44).
3
在引用资料有多个版本的情况下，需要提供另外的引用信息。如果引用的资料多次再版，可能需要注明章节、部分、段落、分栏、册数等信息来源，以便读者更容易在不同版本中找到同一句引用或释义。
- From Austen's perspective, “It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife” (4; ch. 1).
- In the first chapter of Pride and Prejudice, Austen states, “It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife” (4).
4
用名字首字母来标注姓氏相同的作者。如果引用的两篇文章的两位不同作者形式相同，就需要用他们名字的首字母来区分。
- Some believe that MLA citations are the most practical (J. Doe 17) while others believe that APA is a superior style guide (B. Doe 9).
- J. Doe believes that MLA citations are the most practical (17) but B. Doe argues that APA is a superior style guide (9).
5
当同一个作者的两篇文献被引用时需注明标题。如果引用同一作者的两篇文献，应该在括号内列出缩略题目来区分。
- According to Smith, in-text citations are simple enough (“MLA In-Text Citations” 92) but the “Works Cited” page can get complicated depending on the “variety and particular types of sources used in a given paper” (The Fun of MLA 13).
6
在括号内用分号分隔多个引用。如果在同一句内解释或总结来自两个文献的信息，在括号内正常标注引用信息并用分号隔开。
- The rules of MLA citations have been discussed by many (Smith 16; Doe 32).
7
要了解如何标注间接引用。如果你所引用的信息不是原始来源，需要标注原始作者，同时包括信息直接来源的作者和页码，在前面标注缩写 “qtd”。
- Doe notes that "in-text citations are fairly easy to write" (qtd. in Smith 102).
