English

KiRa [710]3 years ago

The correct answer is "I have one problem with the ski trip this weekend: I can’t ski!". A colon means "that is to say" or "here's what I mean." Colons and semicolons should never be used interchangeably. There are three main uses of the colon:

  • to introduce a list
  • before a quotation, and sometimes before direct speech
  • between two main clauses in cases where the second clause explains or follows from the first

Your paper includes a works-cited list. Why is this fact alone not enough to avoid the accusation of plagiarism? Answer in compl
bearhunter [10]
This fact alone is not enough to avoid the accusation of plagiarism because plagiarism is a very wide subject that can not be satisfied only by the addition of the references of the sources one used during writing.
Plagiarism is defined as the practice of using another person's work or idea and presenting them as if they are your own. Plagiarism encompasses the following acts:
1. Using sources without citing them.
2. Not using appropriate in-text citations in one's write up.
3. Improper paraphrasing of other people's words, that is, those words are still basically in the form used by the original user.
4. Not including quotation marks when other people's words are used.
5. Failure to acknowledge all authors, in case the source used was put together by many authors.
These are just few examples of what constitute plagiarism, so you can see that it is more than just adding references to your write up.<span />

Hi every body <br><br>I need a summary of War by Luigi Pirandello could you help me please?​
ozzi

Answer:

Of course :)

Explanation:

Some travelers from Rome are obliged to spend most of the night aboard a second-class railway carriage, parked at the station in Fabriano, waiting for the departure of the local train that will take them the remainder of their trip to the small village of Sulmona. At dawn, they are joined by two additional passengers: a large woman, “almost like a shapeless bundle,” and her tiny, thin husband. The woman is in deep mourning and is so distressed and maladroit that she has to be helped into the carriage by the other passengers.

Her husband, following her, thanks the people for their assistance and then tries to look after his wife’s comfort, but she responds to his ministrations by pulling up the collar of her coat to her eyes, hiding her face. The husband manages a sad smile and comments that it is a nasty world. He explains this remark by saying that his wife is to be pitied because the war has separated her from their twenty-year-old son, “a boy of twenty to whom both had devoted their entire life.” The son, he says, is due to go to the front. The man remarks that this imminent departure has come as a shock because, when they gave permission for their son’s enlistment, they were assured that he would not go for six months. However, they have just been informed that he will depart in three days.

The man’s story does not prompt too much sympathy from the others because the war has similarly touched their lives. One of them tells the man that he and his wife should be grateful that their son is leaving only now. He says that his own son “was sent there the first day of the war. He has already come back twice wounded and been sent back again to the front.” Someone else, joining the conversation, adds that he has two sons and three nephews already at the front. The thin husband retorts that his child is an only son, meaning that, should he die at the front, a father’s grief would be all the more profound. The other man refuses to see that this makes any difference. “You may spoil your son with excessive attentions, but you cannot love...
