3)abstract of an article/paper is a shotend form of a speech, article, book, etc.

4)What is a "full-text article"?
Full-Text Article - In computerized databases, the complete article rather than just a citation or abstract. In LIAS databases, move from the record screen to the full text of an article by entering the command DIT. A full-text article in LIAS can be printed, sent to your email address, or saved to disk.

5)My search technique is when I do my search on the online search engine I tried to make the question as precise as I can and make sure it is related to the subject I want to search and not go to the subject that is not related nd I tried to be brief as I can.
