Answer:
A) Summarize the author's ideas, give credit where due.
Explanation:
When writing an essay it's important that you give credit to the author of your cited source, for example (Timothy, 20). If you don't its considered plagiarism since you copied it directly but didn't announce that you did.
You could- B) Avoid discussing the author's ideas. But that wouldn't get you any information.
You could- C) Quote the author directly, but don't tell where the quote came from. But you'd be stealing information aka plagiarism.
You could- D) Discuss the author's ideas, but phrase them differently while refraining from mentioning the author by name. But your pretty much repeating what they said, which is still plagiarism considering your teacher may or may not ask for the source and look through it.
A allows you to summarize the author's ideas and when due, cite your evidence if directly quoting.
Answer: by providing a clue that uncovers the treasure
Explanation:
The rest of the excerpt is showing to us what exactly caused their reaction to the spring. They are looking forward to it because as they said ''The treasure is in the spring, between the ash tree and the silver beech.''
''XAVIER The joyous sounds of spring. The joyous sounds of the spring. The spring! KENNETH (Jumping up) Where rocks and pebbles sing. The water going over the rocks and pebbles. And you can't get to it in the wintertime because the spring is frozen then. XAVIER (From behind the trees) The treasure is in the spring, between the ash tree and the silver beech.''
We can see that they are happy because of the sound of the spring and now they will be able to find the treasure since in the wintertime everything is under the snow.
This was Woodrow Wilson’s speech to Congress about joining the war against Germany since he must have the consent of Congress who must be the one to actually declare war. Since we ended up joining the war effort, I️ would say that this was an effective speech.
