When developing the paragraphs in an essay, the writer should include the information about the sources for all quoted information to avoid plagiarism. Some of the information you used in your essay to support your topic are just borrowed ideas and you are just using them as basis and reference and does not originally come from you. Therefore, to avoid plagiarism, quoting them is very essential to give credit to the person who came up with that idea.
do you have a picture or list of the underlined options?
The way I'd change it would be :
'Great White Sharks are quite fascinating creatures if you research the history that goes along with them. Their records are very ancient and they are one of the longest existing species to live on this earth today!'
It's a bit on the scientific side, but I hope I helped even a little.
This question is missing the excerpt. I've found the complete question online. It is as follows:
Read the excerpt from chapter 7 of Night.
Meir Katz remained on the train. The last day had been the most lethal. We had been a hundred or so in this wagon. Twelve of us left it. Among them, my father and myself.
The author’s main purpose in this excerpt is to show that ______
A) few survived the horrific train ride.
B) the author and his father were safe.
C) Meir Katz was not as strong as he seemed.
D) Meir Katz was left behind to remove the dead.
Answer:
The author’s main purpose in this excerpt is to show that A) few survived the horrific train ride.
Explanation:
This excerpt makes one clear point. It's main purpose is to show how horrific the train ride was, especially its last night. Out of a hundred people who had been in the wagon, only 12 left. The author does mention that him and his father were safe. Yet, the most important piece of information - and the most shocking one - is how many people died. Therefore, letter A is the best option.
