Because if you are ever doing research, for instance when you have to turn in your thesis for your PhD, you have to pass peer review. Also intellectual data that is not yours has to be properly cited otherwise it is considered academic dishonesty.
If I had gotten the lowest mark in the assignment, I would ask myself about the reason for this bad grade. A very probable reason is that I had not studied enough- probably I was distracted by other activities, such as watching a movie. However, since it resulted in a bad grade, I would want to change this behaviour next time and I would prepare for the exam instead of watching the movie!
I soar from one area to another, looking down on the unfamiliar creatures below me. These creatures are so ordinary and bizarre! They remain on the ground, never once experiencing the exhilaration of a long flight.
also their communicative style! If something, a noise! Every other minute, the creature's voice sounds completely different from the way it does one minute.
They have eyes, a mouth, and what I assume to be hands and legs. They occasionally approach me quite closely, as if they may hurt me. Once they do, I flee, afraid of their evil plans. The strange creatures build a shelter bigger than the tree itself, unlike the nests we, the birds, manufacture and have. and they placed stuff within it! How amazing!
They frequently leave the house and enter a vehicle, which I believe they refer to as a "car." As I watch the machine move away at a speed that even I can't maintain, I gasp in horror as it comes to life. They occasionally leave some of their food outside, and when it is abandoned I fly over and devour it because their meal is in no way similar to ours.
However, these critters and pests may be unfortunate in that they are unable to fly. They were unable to fly away from their problems.
I think in this situation it is a comma splice. I may be wrong
Hope that helps
The playwright wants to illustrate fear to the audience because they fear the anger of Dryas and so he was put into prison for that reason, but maybe sadness as well because of the reason he was send to jail.
