Eng 101BCWorks Cited On a sheet of paper… Why use a formatting guide like MLA, APA, Chicago? Why do we begin with MLA and not APA (which is used more often)? Write 3 things that you know about Works Cited pages Write 3 things that you want to know about Works Cited pages Exercise 57-5 1. OK Explanation The student has enclosed the exact words from the source in quotation marks and identifies the author in a signal phrase and the page number in parentheses. Exercise 57-5 2. OK Explanation The student has paraphrased the source without using its language or structure and has credited the author and cited the page number on which the ideas can be found. Exercise 57-5 3. Plagiarized Explanation Although the student has credited the source with a signal phrase and a page number in parentheses, the student paraphrases the source too closely, using the same or similar words (seldom, faithfully, stick, wander) and borrowing the sentence structure from the source. Exercise 57-5 4. Plagiarized Explanation The student’s paraphrase uses language from the source without quotation marks (irrelevancies, embarrassed, relevance) and a sentence structure that is too close to that in the source. In addition, the student does not credit the author of the ideas or the page number on which they can be found. Exercise 57-5 5. Plagiarized Explanation The student has used language from the source (modern ears, wandered all around and arrived nowhere) without enclosing it in quotation marks. Exercise 58-4 1. Not okay Explanation The student has failed to cite the page number on which the quotation appears. The page number should be placed in parentheses after the quotation and before the final period: Packer notes “the liberalization in Africa of the rules governing used-clothing imports in the past ten years” (232). Exercise 58-4 2. Ok Explanation The student has enclosed the exact words of the source in quotation marks and has correctly cited the author in a signal phrase and the page number in parentheses. Exercise 58-4 3. Ok Explanation The student has enclosed direct words from the source in quotation marks and has used “qtd. In” to indicate that the quoted words belong to a person interviewed by the author, not to the author. Exercise 58-4 4. Not okay Explanation The student has attributed the ideas in this paraphrase to the author of the passage, but the ideas were expressed by a person the author interviewed, not by the author. The following is an acceptable revision: A Ugandan driver asserts that his culture will not survive for another decade because Ugandans are becoming accustomed to Western goods (Packer 233). Exercise 58-4 5. Not okay Explanation Although the student has used quotation marks around the quoted passage and has cited the author and page number correctly, the quotation is not word-for-word accurate from the source. In addition, the writer has failed to use brackets to indicate a word changed from the source to fit the grammar of the sentence. The following is an acceptable revision: An American reporter observes that the availability of Western clothing may send Africans the message that “their own things are worthless, that [they] can do nothing for themselves” (Packer 233). Exercise 59-2 1. Als describes Cat Power as “a storyteller...[who] cares more about how she says something than about what she says” (148). In MLA style, an in-text citation appears after the quoted material and before the sentence period. Exercise 59-2 2. “Perhaps the essential achievement of punk rockers was to broach in rock what we might call an antiaesthetic: All expression was possible, including no expression; all musical expertise was possible, including none,” Kerman and Tomlinson point out (412). In MLA style for a source with two authors, both authors’ names are given in the signal phrase. Exercise 59-2 3. In his album The Rising, Bruce Springsteen elevates his typical working-class subjects to the status of heroes in the post-September 11 world (Gates; Santoro). When two or more works are cited in the same parentheses, the authors’ names are separated by a semicolon. Exercise 59-2 4. One startling description of fiddler Ashley Maclsaac begins, “Although wrecking a hotel room is standard rock-star behavior, it is unusual for the instrument of destruction to be a bucketful of freshly cooked lobsters” (Mead 281). The author of the work being quoted, not the editor of the collection containing the work, is given in an MLA in-text citation. Exercise 59-2 5. Bangs argues that he sees Elvis Presley not “as a tragic figure...[but] more like the Pentagon, a giant armored institution nobody knows anything about except that its power is legendary” (“Where Were You” 623) When a paper includes two or more works by the same author, the parenthetical citation includes a short form of the source’s title along with the page number. Exercise 59-2 6. The Wiggin sisters grew up in Fremont, New Hampshire. A town historian once wrote about Fremont that “for the most part, death, sickness, disease, accidents, bad weather, loneliness, strenuous hard work, insect-infested foods, prowling predatory animals, and countless inconveniences marked day-to-day existence” (qtd. In Orlean 136). Orlean is quoting the town historian, so the parenthetical citation includes the abbreviation “qtd. In” to indicate that the words are not Orlean’s. Exercise 59-2 7. Ratliff notes that Lincoln Center’s jazz concerts have been held at Alice Tully Hall and Avery Fisher Hall, respectable cultural landmarks that are nevertheless physically hostile to the sound of jazz percussion” (E5). The in-text citation for a newspaper article includes the exact page number on which the quotation appears. Exercise 59-2 8. Wyman maintains that “if you were a rock-loving youth in America’s...Sun Belt in the mid-1970s, the Ramones gave you your first taste of what a sensation was.” For an unpaginated electronic source, a signal phrase naming the author of the work is sufficient in an MLA in-text citation. Exercise 59-2 9. While U2’s music is infused with religious imagery and explicitly embraces Christian themes, the band’s hard-living lifestyle makes “some pietistic Christians...question the band’s beliefs” (“U2’s Spiritual Journey” 12). In MLA style, a work with no author is cited with a short form of its title. Exercise 59-2 10. Wikipedia notes that the term riot grrl “became an almost meaningless media catchphrase” that was rarely used by artists themselves (“Riot Grrl”). A work with no author is cited by its title in an MLA intext citation. What is a Works Cited page?
