In the case below, the original source material is given along with a sample of student work. Determine the type of plagiarism b

y clicking the appropriate radio button.
STUDENT VERSION
The possibilities that science suggests often provide the inspiration for science fiction authors. For example, the theory of relativity shows that it is possible to create a time machine that will jump you forward in time has no doubt spurred people to consider the implications that this possibility would have for society.

ORIGINAL VERSION
It is possible to travel to the future. That is, relativity shows that it is possible to create a time machine that will jump you forward in time. You step into the time machine, wait, step out, and find that much more time has passed on the earth than has passed for you. We do not have the technology today to do this, but it is just a matter of engineering: we know it can be done.

Which of the following is true for the Student Version above?

(A) Word-for-Word plagiarism

Answer:

I believe we have a case of word-for-word plagiarism here.

Explanation:

In paraphrasing plagiarism, the writer takes an idea from another source and summarizes it without mentioning the original author or authors. In word-for-word plagiarism, however, the original text or a section of it is copied - again, without any mention to the original source and authors.

When we analyze the student version and the original version provided in the question, we are able to find that a whole sentence from the original version was copied by the student. Check the sentences in bold below:

We have a verbatim copy above (verbatim means "in exactly the same words"). That constitutes a word-for-word plagiarism.

Explanation:

<h2>                          Frozen Daggers</h2>

She wore an angered expression paired with blue eyes sharp as frozen daggers.

Not worried about piercing you,

but rather how much you'd bleed.

Daggers that killed countless lives on a cold winter day.

Daggers that have been cleaned of blood by simply dipping them in the snow.

Making the knife as cold as the heart of the person who used it.

Daggers that killed ones it loved and cherished.

Daggers that show no mercy.

Daggers that stained the clean snow red that winter's evening.

Though the dagger wasn't kind, the winter day was.

Children played in the white flakes.

People built innocent snowmen.

Along with that they also built bonds and memories.

They built things they loved and not too soon after, lost.

Everyone played in the snow and built bonds no matter how different they were.

The winter day brought them together with to intention of taking them apart.

The winter loved them.

The winter thrived off of their happiness.

Joy was its source of life.

​

This is why her daggers are frozen.

She is the kindest soul to exist.

Yet she is not to be underestimated or you might just end up cut.

Explain the impact of female writers during the Post-modernist literary period. Using the stories I Want to Be Miss America and
kolezko [41]

This period is considered to be a moment of testing boundaries hence why the role of women in literature changed drastically. During this period of time women started to be portrayed as main characters instead of romantic counterparts/secondary characters. Instead of being the emblem of fragility they suddenly became icons of independence and emotional intelligence (hence why they were usually described as able to reveal their feelings and express their thoughts and opinions)

For example both stories portray the stereotypes that all girls want to be popoular, worshipped and the focus of attention and how society tends to discriminate people based on their looks they counter attack those beliefs and instead make the statement that although physical beauty has a great value in society it is not what determines a person's value.
