Which statement best explains why Shakespeare has Cassius use the word fawn rather than a synonym such as flatter to describe hi
GaryK [48]

The statement that best explains why Shakespeare has Cassius use the word <em>fawn</em> rather than a synonym such as <em>flatter</em> to describe his actions is the A: Fawn is more negative, suggesting manipulation of another for personal gain. In the excerpt that this question is referring to, the shrewd Cassius is going to reveal some aspects of Brutus's personality, or of his behavior, that he cannot see, and he asks him to trust in him, unless he saw him flattering somebody and then slandering him on their back; in that case, Cassius concludes, Brutus could be suspicious of him. Shakespeare is using the word <em>fawn </em>in Cassius's speech in order to emphasize his manipulative and devious traits. The word does have a negative connotation, and it often implies disapproval of that person's actions.

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Yes. She is guilty of patchwork plagiarism.

Explanation:

According to the text in the question, Sara has used large sections of three different sources by cutting and pasting them. She does not cite the sources and does not make an effort to use her own words or to use only a couple of lines from each source. When someone copies large portions of two or more sources and presents the result as their own work, we have a case of patchwork plagiarism. Therefore, Sara is guilty of that kind of plagiarism.
