...the controversy between the old woman and writer on the brown paper? In the summer holidays he went into the kitchen (which along with the rest of the house) by putting six very bright colored chalks in his pocket. He asked the owner of the kitchen if she had any brown paper. She mistook the purpose and the rationale of the existence of brown paper. She seemed to have an idea that if a person wanted brown paper he must be waiting to tie up parcels, which was the last thing he wanted to do indeed. Hence she dwelt very much on the varying qualities of toughness and endurance in the material. He explained to her that he only wanted to draw pictures on it, and he did not want them to endure in the least; and that from his point of view, therefore, it was a question not of tough consistency but of responsive surface, a thing comparatively irrelevant in a parcel. When she understood that he wanted to draw she offered to overwhelm him with notepaper, apparently supposing that he did his notes and correspondence on old brown paper wrappers from motives of economy. He then tried to explain the rather delicate logical shade, that he not only liked brown paper, but quality of brownness in paper. After that he put that brown paper in his pocket and other things and went out on to the great downs. Q- What type of drawing did the writer do in the story? Discuss his thoughts about nature. When he went on to the great downs, he crawled across those colossal counters that express the best quality...

He knows that copying a direct quotation from a source or a paper without placing quotation marks is counted as wrong work which is a plagiarism. He also acknowledges the quotations by crediting the source by work citing. Picking up a statement from a source and crediting means avoiding a plagiarism. Readers will have a clear idea about where the statement is extracted from. Quoting and paraphrasing, both are fine as long as their sources are credited. He takes Steinbeck's ideas or words and puts them into his own words, Dylan paraphrases by crediting the source by citing it. Paraphrasing is equally important as quoting to keep in mind while writing a paper to avoid plagiarism. If someone's ideas or words are taken without changing words, and is not quoted and not credited then it is considered a plagiarism.

...research paper about Clint Eastwood being timeless icon or Spurious Miscreant. In the beginning the author explains what movies he plaid that made him the best there was. Towards the middle of the paper is explains why he could be spurious miscreant. This is a well written research paper because of its well formatted and organized paragraphs. This paper also shows a great amount of organization within the paragraphs, proper APA citations and references, strong content, and good grammar and spelling. The paragraphs are on track with what they need to be and are very thorough. I would give this research paper for an A- because it’s a well written paper, it just needs some tweaks. It’s not a profession paper, it’s more of a “laid back” and persuasive paper. A well-organized paper should have a paragraph with one main point, not multiple. Each of these paragraphs explain one point. The introduction paragraph explained what the paragraph was going to be about, which in this case how timeless icons can change history. When the author wanted to use a long quote in the paper he did formatted to the proper way. The author changed the topic of the when he switched to talking about spurious miscreant, which he did the proper way and stayed on topic with the negatives towards him....

...or a research paper from a random college student has a purpose. Some purposes are to entertain, express themselves, educate, or in the case of "Politically Incorrect? Or Master Strategists? Try Both" by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar; it was to persuade. However, Abdul-Jabbar tried to hide his attempt to persuade people as an article that was supposed to seem informative and educational on the surface. To gather credibility for a series of weak and biased arguments Kareem Abdul-Jabbar misuses statistics and manipulates human emotions. Abdul-Jabbar’s creative and controlling writing is subtlety integrated unless examined further. Abdul-Jabbar’s most powerful tool that he uses throughout his article is his ability to appeal to people’s emotions. He uses quotes that bring attention by appealing to peoples emotions and also makes people feel comfortable with him as a person; this way people are more likely to agree with him. Abdul-Jabbar does this multiple times early on in his article in an effort to build a sense of importance with his...

...The Purchased Paper After Reading the case study, “The Purchased Paper, I feel Edgar plays more of a victim instead of taking full responsibility for his own actions. Edgar is a college student that procrastinated on a paper due Monday, and had to work all weekend. Instead of being proactive, he found ways to act like he was victimized. After reading “Habit 1: Be Proactive” by author Steven Covey, it’s clear Edgar was not a proactive person, he was a reactive person. “They don’t blame genetics, circumstances, conditions, or conditioning for their behavior.” Covey observes, “They know they choose their behavior.” Edgar does just that, blames everyone but himself. For example, Edgar in a way finds a way to in a sense blame his mother, Mrs....

...Paper cannot be folded in half more than seven times. This was a fact that Wilhelm Tirtschke knew very well. Hours spent huddled over worn carpet, folding sheets and sheets of paper, littering the folded paper around his feet. He spent his childhood in a naïve daze, believing urban legends and myths in an attempt to distract himself. Soon he became foolishly obsessed in breaking these myths. However, the years passed, and the same paper which he used to break the myths joined the fire which failed to warm him. His fingers ached with the daily stretch of his knuckles and his once radiant smile grew paper thin. It took even more years for Wilhelm to accept that paper cannot be folded in half more than seven times. Humans however, are not paper....

...read a lot of books, magazines and papers; how hard could it be? It wasn’t long before I had a real eye opening experience trying to write my first real formal paper. Writing has never been easy for me so when I started writing formal papers in college it was one of the more difficult assignments for me. In the first part of this essay, I will review my first experience in writing a formal college paper, how the Professor encouraged me to actually finish the paper, then in the second part of my paper I will describe my experiences with research and MLA formatting style. I will never forget my first college English Composition class. When I walked into the class it looked like any other classroom. People were sitting in what I was sure was their comfort spots in the classroom, some in front, some in back. I, of course, chose a middle seat. I pulled out the books and papers I needed for the class and sat quietly. When the Professor started the class we all signed in and of course, we had to write an introduction of ourselves to him. That seemed easy enough. I wrote it out and handed it in and was passed back a syllabus. The final draft of our first paper wasn’t even due for four weeks. At that time I never imagined I would need that full four weeks for one paper. My first paper was to be on a topic in which I could interject my own opinion and provide backup for my opinion much like I would use in a debate. He called it an argumentative paper. My thoughts at this point were still...

...ABSTRACT Carl Gustaf Rossby, a Swedish born mathematical physicist and later meteorologist is among the greatest contributors to modern-day meteorology. It was through his extensive research in the general circulations, that modern day weather forecasting has emerged to what it has become today. Rossby had a well-established career in the geosciences, with a broad educational background. It wasn’t until later in his life did he come to publish his greatest works. Rossby published three works in the late 1930’s and early 1940’s that involve potential vorticity, which would help establish the ground work for his most famous work on Rossby waves. The 1936 paper shows the conservation of potential vorticity in a hydrostatic, shallow fluid state, while the 1938 paper is an extension to the highly stratified hydrostatic flow, this time using isentropic coordinates. The term potential vorticity is actually never used until the 1940 paper where it is introduced. The 1939 work by Rossby is considered by some the most famous work contributed by Rossby, as he explains the semipermanent centers of action which would become the well-known Rossby waves. INTRODUCTION When people think of meteorology, the first names to appear are John Dalton, Gabriel Fahrenheit, William Ferrel, and Anders Celsius. These men are the founders of modern meteorology and made tremendous contributions to the field. These names appear in many text books and are known throughout...

...asked the children to tell about their animal of the year in which they were born (the book was about Chinese New Year 2015 animal), Peter quickly raised his hand and answered that “mine is cow”. I checked it later at home since I knew his birth year and he was correct. He also claimed that he knew his mom and dad’s animals but I do not know if they were really correct. When the reader asked them to make the notices of animal pictured in the book, Peter eagerly made notices and seemed interested in doing this activity. After reading the book, the guest provided each child with a fold triangle shaped paper and asked them to cut the fold papers with scissors on the drawn marks to get a beautiful snow flake out of the paper. Children were asked to go to the tables to make their craft. Peter quickly ran to the table and took the scissors and started cutting the paper on the assigned mark. While his friends and other classmates constantly got help from the teachers to make sure which line they should cut the paper, Peter carefully but quickly cut the pattern out of the paper with no help from teachers. He was the first one to cut the paper and opened it as a snow flake. When he made his snow flake, the teacher applauded him but he seemed serious and indifference to her applauds. It was interesting to see how other children after making their snowflakes, show others their work and said “I did it” or “look at my snow flake”, but Peter despite being the first person who made the...
