wherein, the first answer viewpoint is a first of the plurality of answer viewpoints.

4 . The content search method according to claim 1 , wherein, before displaying the plurality of answer viewpoints and the first content in the search result interface, the content search method further comprises:

displaying the plurality of answer viewpoints within the search result interface;

wherein the displaying the plurality of answer viewpoints and the first content in the search result interface comprises:

when a first trigger operation is detected, the first content is displayed in the search result interface, the first answer viewpoint being an answer viewpoint selected by the first trigger operation.

5 . The content search method according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of answer viewpoints are displayed in a same area, and the first content is displayed in a display area to which the plurality of answer viewpoints belong.

6 . The content search method according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of answer viewpoints are displayed in different areas, and the first content is displayed in a display area to which the first answer viewpoint belongs.

7 . The content search method according to claim 1 , wherein the first content further includes a number of the search results corresponding to each of the keywords in the first category of the search results.

8 . The content search method according to claim 1 , wherein the second content further includes the search results involving the selected plurality of keywords in the first category of the search results.

9 . The content search method according to claim 8 , wherein the selected plurality of keywords is displayed in a selected state.

10 . The content search method according to claim 8 , wherein the selected plurality of keywords are arranged and displayed according to an order determined according to a number of the search results corresponding to each of the keywords in the first category of the search results;

wherein a first of the selected plurality of keywords is the selected keyword before receiving the operation for selecting the keyword.

11 . The content search method according to claim 1 , wherein the first content further includes a summary of the first answer viewpoint, which is generated according to all search results of the first category of the search results corresponding to the first answer viewpoint, and wherein displaying the second content in the search result interface comprises:

replacing a summary of the answer viewpoints with the second content for display.

12 . A content search device, comprising:

a processor; and

a memory configured to store executable instructions;

wherein, the processor is configured to read the executable instructions from the memory, and execute the executable instructions to:

receive a search content;

send the search content to a server, wherein the server searches for the search content in a database to obtain search results related to the search content, and extracts information from the search results to obtain a plurality of answer viewpoints corresponding to the search results and keywords supporting each of the answer viewpoints;

receive the search results, the plurality of answer viewpoints, and the keywords from the server;

display the plurality of answer viewpoints and a first content in a search result interface;

wherein each of the answer viewpoints corresponds to a category of the search results, and the first content includes the keywords from arguments supporting a first answer viewpoint among the plurality of answer viewpoints, which are configured to indicate a reason for displaying the first answer viewpoint, the keywords being obtained by:

extracting a keyword set from a first category of the search results corresponding to the first answer viewpoint;

calculating a correlation between each keyword in the keyword set and the first answer viewpoint; and

selecting a plurality of the keywords according to the calculated correlation for each keyword; and

in response to an operation for selecting a keyword from the keywords in the first content displayed, displaying a second content in the search result interface, wherein the second content includes a keyword summary generated for the selected keyword, and the keyword summary is generated according to the search results involving the selected keyword in the first category of the search results corresponding to the first answer viewpoint.
