Abstract： [Purpose/significance] In the process of publishing a paper, if the core viewpoint of an academic paper can be presented reasonably and effectively, it can not only greatly reduce the time spent by researchers in searching and screening literature, but also help to read and understand. [Method/process] By annotating 385 journal papers in XML format, a research corpus was constructed, and then the linguistic characteristics of highlights were analyzed by keyword analysis method, and the distribution characteristics of highlights were explored by natural language processing algorithm. [Result/conclusion] The highlight of this paper is the collection of a set of normative and clear-cut short sentences, which is the embodiment of new viewpoints, new perspectives, new methods, new ideas, new results and new conclusions in an academic paper compared with other papers. The highlights are novel, concise, readable and "propaganda". In addition, this paper divides the highlights into research innovation highlights, research methods highlights, research process highlights and research conclusion highlights, and finds the distribution of highlights in the text and chapters.
