In this line of <em>Brave, New World</em>, John uses a quote from <em>The Tempest</em> by William Shakespeare to communicate with Lenina. John talks about how some forms of "baseness" (something that is low, or that lacks merit) are undergone nobly. This means that some actions, even of they are bad or difficult, must be accepted honourably. This points to the idea of sacrificing and enduring difficulties. What John wants Lenina to understand is that he has a desire to make sacrifices or offerings in order to win her love.
Answer: Plagiarism.
Explanation:
While it is completely appropriate to draw on someone else's findings and conclusions in your work, it is punishable to present them as your own. Plagiarism happens when we use someone else's ideas without listing that individual as a source. It is considered as a serious breach of academic ethics.
It is not allowed to use other people's ideas without citing them, but it is also punishable to mix your own previous work with new without permission. This is known as <em>self-plagiarism</em>.
