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 />

zavuch27 [327]
Lomov and Natalia are 2 of the characters in the story " <span>A Marriage Proposal by Anton Chekhov. 
</span>Lomov first proposed but ended up arguing with Natalia and Natalia's father, <span>Tschubukov. They argued about who owns the Oxen meadows which Natalia's family persistently claimed </span> that they owned the meadows for long. However, Lomov do not want to give up the meadows and told <span>Tschubukov and Natalia that</span> he has all the documents to prove that he owns the meadow. 
When Natalia found out the purpose of Lomov's visit, she was disappointed with his father for not telling her. They were sorry that they made Lomov mad. And so, they decided to call him back.
When Lomov visit Natalia again, he could not tell her directly that he wanted to marry her, so he keeps beating around the  bush. Natalia and Lomov conversed. To break the silence, Lomov talks about his lamed dog, Guess, whom he is very proud of. Natalia then added that her dog,Leap, is far better than his. So, they argued and the proposal was again forgotten.

In-s [12.5K]
Knows little. 2 and 3 are both presuming too much, as it's the writer's duty to get them interested and informed. 4 basically doesn't matter, and furthermore may not even apply in many forms of writing. 1 is the best answer, as writing for general audiences is intended to inform and expand the horizons of the reader.
