Write a 500-word research report on typos

Survey summary of street typos

Abstract: In today's society, although people are more educated, typos are still widespread. Therefore, we conducted a survey and obtained the reasons for the existence of typos: 1. There are always some people with low education who only fish in troubled waters and only seek to understand, not accuracy; 2. They do not pay attention to typos and think that they play a role Not big, but often small things will become big, and small things will add up, creating a vicious cycle. In short, our research is necessary and cannot be ignored.

Keywords: typos, homophones, homographs, low cultural level

Typos are widely present in daily life, and the number of typos is increasing. For this reason, we have decided I chose the topic of investigation report on street typos.

Our topic can be roughly divided into two major stages. The first stage: firstly carry out discussion activities and study how to better carry out the activities of this topic; the second stage: go out for in-depth research and investigation, Collect more information and find better examples of typos to raise people's attention and highlight the dangers of typos. This is the most important goal of our research, and we must remind people not to follow the old path.

We started our research activities by drawing on the following typical examples:

1) It is the "Urumqi" incident, which I believe everyone is familiar with. Misprinting "Urumqi" as "Tiaolumuqi" resulted in a loss of up to 1.6 million yuan, causing serious economic losses.

2) It is a "high-quality rice" incident. Originally, "high-quality rice" should be printed on the exported rice bags, but the wrong information was entered and it was mistakenly printed as "ordinary large pointed rice." The problem was not discovered immediately before exporting. , after all returns, the amount of losses can be imagined.

The above examples better illustrate that we should not only type every word correctly, but also write every word correctly. They set a good precedent for us to remind people and sound the alarm again.

In response to the above phenomenon, we carried out research activities on typos, so that there would be no place for typos. After that, we began to collect typos in Daxian alleys and various cultural, commercial, medical and other places - through our efforts , found some examples of typos. For example: We went to the bicycle and motor vehicle repair shops in the east to investigate, and found that repair shops in many places mistakenly wrote the word "tire" as "peptide" or "唔" in tires. This is a very common phenomenon; there is another example. It's Dali Hospital. We went to investigate twice. In the bulletin board about "food precautions", the words "except" and "except" were wrongly written as "Xu"; also, in some food stores, In fast food restaurants, they wrote the word "Fa" wrongly in the "Fa" dish, and "Clay Rice" was written as "Baozi Rice", etc. Later, we also investigated some alleys that wrote job postings, lost property notices, and street food. Computers print advertisements, signboards, etc., but typos are not found; there is also the problem of colloquialism. In daily life, people often write words in a colloquial manner, so typos often appear.

The above is the information we collected during our field research and investigation. In view of the above real social phenomena around us, we started a discussion, mainly discussing the causes of typos, the types of typos, and how to deal with them in the future. What a typo, don't let them harm society. After group discussion, we came to the following results:

One of the reasons for typos is the low cultural level, and the other is the thought of ignoring ugliness and seeking convenience. It is because people who repair bicycles and motor vehicles are not highly educated and only rely on one skill, so they write "Ti" as "peptide" or "唔". In a place with high cultural quality like Dali Hospital, typos will appear In fact, I don't think so. Because many people sometimes make mistakes while busy. They are busy with work, so they seldom care about the rights and wrongs of these words. Some food shops with low food culture can be run by relying on their "cooking" skills. They do not care about typos and just want the business to be prosperous. These ideas are actually unacceptable.

The types of typos are actually two types: homophones and homographs.

Just like the pronunciation of "fei" in Cantonese, many people will write it with the same pronunciation and homograph, such as "唔" and "peptide". Although the harmful consequences are not great, it is very similar to the nature of the "Urumqi" incident. "Bao" and "Fort" have similar shapes and pronunciations, so it's no wonder that there are typos. "Wu" and "bird" have similar shapes, and "Zhu" and "Xu" have the same pronunciation in Cantonese. In fact, many typos are formed in this way. I think it’s enough to have similar sounds and similar shapes. In fact, this is wrong. We should write the correct characters.

To deal with typos, we must first start with ourselves and the classmates around us. As descendants of the Chinese people, we should first write correctly before we can continue to develop characters, deepen culture, and improve our social and cultural level. Continuously improve and enhance cultural quality. We can no longer be laughed at and generous. If you want to write, just write it. To deal with typos, you must first improve your basic level so that you can be responsible for the "words" and make typos less likely to be written.

Through this research and investigation work, we have learned a lot; if we want to achieve fruitful results, we must be practical, hardworking, and involved. This research and investigation brings us closer to social life, improves our ability to participate in society, and enables us to understand various aspects of knowledge about typos. Typos is its harmful nature. This research and investigation not only achieved great progress, but also made the students more cooperative and united to work together. It also enriched our extracurricular activities and increased our extracurricular knowledge.

China has joined the WTO. As the young generation, what should we do for the country? We are the talents of the 21st century and the pillars of the country! We must devote ourselves to the motherland in the future, so we must work hard to learn scientific and cultural knowledge. First of all, you must learn Chinese characters. Chinese characters are the written language of our country and are closely related to people’s lives. Some people say: "My father only studied in the first grade and can only read a few dozen words. Now he can make a lot of money and I don't need to learn anything." This is wrong. The 21st century is an era of knowledge explosion, and more talents are needed. Without culture, one will be eliminated by society and find it difficult to gain a foothold in society. If you don’t even understand basic Chinese characters, you will inevitably be deceived, miswritten, and made into a joke. After learning how to read, you can write letters to friends, communicate online, read a lot of extracurricular books, etc. It can be seen how important and useful learning words is. We should not only learn more words, but also encourage others not to give up learning. In short, we must work hard to learn writing and scientific and cultural knowledge.
