Read the following excerpt from The Loner. After the third paragraph, type two facts you learn about sheep or shepherding. Use e

xact words from the excerpt. "What do they do then?" "They fool the ewe. They skin her dead lamb and put its wool on the bum. They make slits for the legs and one for the neck and then they slip it over the bum and give him to the ewe. Funniest thing you ever saw. The lamb has two tails and eight legs." Boss whirled on him. "Dum? They're not dum. They're just about the most helpless creatures alive. They've lost all their instinct to take care of themselves because they haven't had to. But it isn't their fault. It's man's. He's bred all the wild animal's independence and cunning out of them for his own gain, to have their meat and their wool with the least possible bother from them. Don't ever use that word about them again in my hearing. I won't have it!"

vova2212 [387]

In the article "How the Media Twists the News," Sheila Gribben Liaugminas explains that "intelligent news consumers" are those who pay attention to the ways in which media presents the news. She argues that being this intelligent consumer means that you realize that not everything you hear is valid, well-researched or unbiased. Moreover, an "intelligent citizen" employs this well-researched information to act in society. I believe that through the use of these two terms, the author makes a strong and valid call to action. She is effective when it comes to explaining that this is a vital task for all citizens. Moreover, she is explicit in how not doing so can affect our society and increase ignorance among the public.

Explanation:

Using someone's words in your document by copying them exactly or partially is called pilgrim.

The main two types of pilgrims are:

  • Direct copying
  • Word switching / paraphrasing

Direct copying:

Copying someone's same words from worksheets, web page, document, a book, an article, or from any other source and claim it to be your own words without mentioning the source from where the content is taken is a form of pilgrim called direct copying.

Word switching / paraphrasing:

Using someone's words partially (taking parts of sentences or words) into your document is called word switching or paraphrasing. Changing the sequence of someone's word and using them into your document without mentioning the original source is called word switching.

However, it has been "misshapen" due to a lack of skill. As a result, what could have been a great benefit to him has become his downfall. I hope this helps!</span>
