Prompt

To practice quoting, paraphrasing, and using in-text citations, you will quote or paraphrase from a given passage, using an in-text citation.

Read the passage.

In 1973, Martin Cooper changed the world, although he didn’t know it yet.

Cooper and his team at Motorola, the communications company, created maybe the only thing that runs the lives of business professionals and teenagers alike—the cell phone.

Here is the source of the passage:

Anjarwalla, Tas. “Inventor of Cell Phone: We Knew Someday Everybody Would Have One.” CNN, www. cnn. com/2010/TECH/mobile/07/09/cooper. cell. phone. inventor/index. html.

Imagine you are writing a research paper and want to use this source. In the box below, type a sentence quoting or paraphrasing information from this passage. Make sure to use an in-text citation.

i love romeo and xo

it is a!

not b because i don't see how this would make them look dangerous..

not c because that just doesn't make sense..

and not d because this too doesn't make sense, it does not really put the audience on edge in my opinion.

a makes the most sense, romeo's statement that in staying to speak to juliet he is risking his life, leads the audience to worry about his safety. obviously if he says that if he stays, he will be at risk, so of course this makes the audience worry for his safety!

answer is a) romeo's statement that in staying to speak to juliet he is risking his life, leads the audience to worry about his safety.

showing or having an insensitive and cruel disregard for others. (so basically being heartless)

hope this : )

question: which statement best describes a similarity in purpose between the frames and excerpt?

answer: both inform the reader that faryad and liaqat were not given the chance to tell their version of events at the police station

explanation: so as you see they were told to leave before they could tell there story
