For English references, we should also pay attention to the following two points:

(1) Author's name adopts the original principle of "surname comes first, surname comes last", and the specific format is: surname, initials.

For example, Malcolm Richard Cowley should be Cowley, M.R. If there are two authors, the way of the first author remains the same; After that, the first letter of the second author's first name is put in front, and the last name is put behind. For example, Frank Norris and Owen Gordon should be: Norris, F.&; Mr Gordon

(2) Titles of books and newspapers are in italics, such as Mastering English Literature and English Weekly.
