Changing the words of an original passage is enough when paraphrasing.
- True
- False
Correct Answer

A. False

Explanation

Paraphrasing involves more than just changing the words of an original passage. It requires rephrasing the ideas and concepts in a different way while maintaining the same meaning. Simply changing the words without altering the structure and meaning of the passage would not be sufficient for effective paraphrasing. Therefore, the statement that changing the words of an original passage is enough when paraphrasing is false.

Web pages commonly use "para." instead of "p." to identify the position of the text in an article. This is a common practice in HTML coding and is used to indicate the paragraph number or position within the document. The abbreviation "para." is often used to provide a clear and concise way of referencing specific paragraphs, making it easier for readers to navigate through the content.

Rate this question:

A paraphrase is a condensed version of the ideas taken from a source that do not include detail.
- True
- False
Correct Answer

A. False

Explanation

A paraphrase is not a condensed version of ideas taken from a source that do not include detail. In fact, a paraphrase is a restatement of someone else's ideas or information in one's own words, while still maintaining the original meaning. It involves rewording and rephrasing the original text, often with the goal of making it clearer or more concise. Therefore, the correct answer is False.
