OA Movie credits can be helpful tools for moviegoers
OB Movie credits have a lot of text to read
OC Movie credits are the things that most people ignore.
OD Movie credits have a "special thanks" section
How many times have you gone to a movie theater to
see the latest release? After sitting through a two or three
hour movie most people are ready to leave the theater
and head home Hopefully they are eager to talk about
the movie. However, how many of those people stay
through the end credits Movie credits can sometimes be
just as entertaining as the movie they accompany,
especialy in the special thanks section, however, movie
credits are made to be informative
if you le never stayed tuned past the end of a movie to
watch its credits you're missing out the end credits list
everyone who was involved in making a movie. It involves
reading through a lot of text, however, this is beneficial to
a moviegoer if you enjoyed the movie, you can read the
names of those involved The next time they are involved
in making a movie, you may decide you want to see it
The opposite is also true. If you thought the movie was
tebe you now know who made the movie You can
avoid any other movie they may be involved in knowing
who made the move can help you in deciding whether or
not to see any of the movies in the future

correct!

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).
