Paraphrase the entire 7th ¶ on NN’s editorial on page 511. In paraphrasing, it’s essential that you not only use your own words but that you also avoid borrowing/mimicking the writers’ syntax/grammatical structure. You are welcome to use quotation in your paraphrase, but limit such to only one or two phrases/clauses. Open your paraphrase with an attributive tag that “shapes reader’s response,” in other words, that gives reader some notion of the authority/credibility of the authors. You should find sufficient information in the excerpt written by our textbook’s authors. Make sure to end your paraphrase with page number enclosed in parentheses. Please note that you’ll NOT have reason to paraphrase such a long passage in your own essays—the goal of this journal is to strenghthen your ability to put other’s ideas and evidence into your own words.
