Answer:
Explanation:
He meant that what do you take in from looking at something. So if you are absently watching a tree and don't do anything else, you might miss the fact that the leaves are moving with the wind, but they are held fast by the connection they make with the branch that holds them.
Think carefully about what that actually means. When fall comes, the branch lets go and the leaves float to the ground.
Even if you think there is a temperature mechanism that loosens the hold the branch has on the leaves, Someone or Something put it there so it could happen.
You excuse me if I let my religion show somewhat. I do think it is some sort of miracle that lets something like that happens. And Thoreau wouldn't disagree. Those Transcendental writers (like Thoreau) all saw miracles in the ordinary.
It can be called referencing, where you in/text reference a source or text you used to gain the information, but you rewrote it in your own words so there is a difference between them.
This means that you will write in a non biased tone (in a way to convey information instead of persuade or argue), using a formal tone means to write using professional language, and in third person meaning to refrain from using the words I, me, my he, and she. Hopefully this helps out!
