Which excerpt from Act 2 of hersters Are Due on Macle Sreet best reflects the idea that fear can lead people to make
false accusations
"And you're with him too all of you! You're standing here all set to crucify-all set to find a scapegoat-all desperate to
point some kind of a finger at a neighbor!"
Algure has suddenly materialized in the gloom and in the silence we can hear the clickety-clack of slow, measured
footsteps on concrete as the figure walks slowly toward them.
"Maybe he'd found out something and came back to tell us who there was amongst us we should watch out for-"
As suddenly Charlie's lights go off and the lights in another house go on. They stay on for a moment then from across the
Street other ghts go on and then oit again
Save and Exit

i don't see any questions on your profile, currently, but i'd be happy to try and with any problems that you have, so long as i understand the problem myself.

the thesis statement : d

what: when quoting a source, use the author’s words verbatim, or word-for-word. this means you shouldn’t change any grammar, punctuation, spelling, etc. put quotations around the words to tell your reader where the quote begins and where it ends.

you also need to acknowledge the author. for example, if using mla format for your research paper, you should have in-text citations with the author’s name and page number listed at the end of each quote.

when: use quotations to provide concrete examples to support your claims. using direct quotations is a great way to build your credibility on the subject. it’s also a good idea to quote your source when the author states things in a powerful way. if you think he or she said it best, then use the exact words to share the ideas.

example: in the short story “a jury of her peers”, mrs. hale compares mrs. wright to her caged bird, saying “she—come to think of it, she was kind of like a bird herself. real sweet and pretty, but kind of timid and—fluttery. how—she—did—change” (glaspell).

paraphrasing

what: paraphrasing differs from quoting because you restate the passage in your own words. since you don’t use the author’s words, you don’t need to use quotation marks. however, you still need to acknowledge the author for his or her ideas.

when paraphrasing a text, you should communicate the full meaning of the text; don’t change the meaning. it can be a condensed version of the text, or it could end up being longer than the source it’s paraphrasing.

when: you use paraphrasing when you take notes, or explain a chart or diagram to someone. paraphrasing highlight the important parts of a larger text. it also allows you to simplify the ideas for your readers.

example:

original: “it was no ordinary thing that called her away–it was probably further from ordinary than anything that had ever happened in dickson county. but what her eye took in was that her kitchen was in no shape for leaving: her bread all ready for mixing, half the flour sifted and half unsifted” (glaspell).

paraphrase: as mrs. hales walks around mrs. wright’s home, she notices that the kitchen is in disarray as if she was in the middle of baking bread (glaspell).
