Question

In her 2012 chapter on Critical Thinking and Reasoning, Terri Russ defines critical thinking as 'active thinking in which we evaluate and analyze information in order to determine the best course of action.'" this statement in a speech would be:
A. a paraphrase
B. a direct quotation
C. an indirect quotation
D. paraplaging

Answer 1

Answer:

B. a direct quotation

Explanation:

When you implement direct quotation, you report the exact words that some author has reproduced before, locating them in between quotation marks in a text. Avoid overusing direct quotation, just limit yourself to do it when it is completely functional, brief, and when the content of the quote itself is what you want to address.
