Catie is writing a research paper about romeo and juliet

Asked by maham237 @ in English viewed by 319 People

In one source, she finds a quotation: "Romeo and Juliet seems to be the most popular of Shakespeare's plays." Should Catie quote this directly or paraphrase it in her paper? Why?
A. She should paraphrase it, because its exact wording is not creative or unique.
B. She should paraphrase it because it is not a statistic needing quotation.
C. She should quote it because it shows the writer's personality.
D. She should quote it because it is an official statement.

Answered by maham237 @


The correct answer is A. She should paraphrase it, because its exact wording is not creative or unique.

In research papers, quotations should be used very sparingly, and only used when a source contains a creative or unique point that can add a nice touch if added to a research paper. The sentence, "Romeo and Juliet seems to be the most popular of Shakespeare's plays" is neither creative nor unique, which is why Catie is better off paraphrasing it in her report rather than directly quoting it.
