During the writing of the annotations pay special attention to your writing style. Try to avoid long and complex sentences. Your thoughts must be stated more briefly and clearly, since this was the style of presentation facilitates reading comprehension. Also keep in mind that scientific articles are never written in the first person, so the annotations should not be expressions such as "in my work", "I believe", "my scientific position", etc. the same applies to cases where you write annotation on other people's articles. The text should be as impersonal and objective.
