Five Citation Techniques

Type of  Citations

Sandra Cisneros stated, "Of all the wonderful things that happened to me last year, that was the most wonderful" (Cisneros 1990,pg 3)

Sandra express her feelings in one simple phrase: "The most wonderful of all the wonderful things that happened to me last year" Sandra Cisneros said " That was the most wonderful" (Cisneros 1990,3)

Her eyes with tears and a big smile on her face she claims it was " The most wonderful" days of all, nothing and no one could stop her for being so happy. (Cisnero 1990, 3)

 In a short story, Only Daughter, Sandra Cisneros tell us about her feeling towards his dad and the feeling she got when her father after all this time approve her as a writer. (Cisnero, 1990)

               I sat on the bed next to my father and waited. He read it very slowly. As if he were reading each line over and over. He laughed at all the right places and read lines he like out loud. He pointed and asked questions: is this So-and-so? Yes, I said. He kept reading. When he was finally finished, after what seemed like hours, my father looked up and asked: where can we get more copies of this for the relatives? Of all the wonderful things that happened to me last year, that’s was the most wonderful. (3)

As Cisneros illustrate us through with her special day, the day her father read her writing and the day he recognizes her and ask her for copies to give to their relatives. That they that mark her life is a day she will never forget.

Reflection to Final Version of Research Paper

Reflection on Smile of Terror             While writing my research paper, I realize that most of the time I use present and past tense in one sentence. I often attend the writing center for this issue. The use of quotes an explaining was not a trouble for me; the library sections help me a lot when I look for articles.  The peer review helps me a lot when It came to reduce extra words. For example, my introduction was one and half page long, but with the help of Nicolas a peer, I was able to omit unnecessary details. Also, he helped me introduce a very hard point between to paragraphs. Overall the research when in the right way I was able to add more emotion and logic into it. I wanted to add more illustrations, but I was unable to find a specific spot where to add them.             In my personal view, the research itself have all needed for a good grade, but th...

Journal Entry #9

My Life My Choice  “Don’t let anyone affect the way you think” those were the word my mom told me when I followed my friends into the wrong path of cutting class. After a few days of though I finally realize how important those words were. To not let yourself become a victim of peer pressure, or to let other influence in your ideologies. After readying some experiments done by the common people I realize how the idea of peer pressure sure was a problem. For example, in the articles student who knew were right in the decision they made, decided to choose the wrong answer to avoid an uncomfortable moment. Also in the video were a man is in the elevator following the other people around him, he follows without questioning.  In the video that we saw during the English101 -53 we see peer pressure play a big role in weather someone makes de right or wrong decision. In fact, it does make a big difference in a person mind, if this type of pressure is put into a big scale it ...

Journal Entry #10

Pay to Live, and Sell to Eat   Human trafficking has been a big and controversial topic. People that donate organs illegally or being force to work as sexual slaves is something that is not tolerated. In my English course we had some reading in were human trafficking was discus. Facts about it were brought up, and most of the people who suffer for human trafficking come from the low-income families and countries. Is an option that people decide to take to gain some money or something they are force to work because they fear of the consequences. Is an easy way for people to found donors when they need it, even though is illegal there are not a lot of law against it when we compare it with war against drugs.             Human trafficking sure is a big problem but some benefits can be found on it. For example, finding donors to save someone’s life, but when it comes to force people to work as sex slaves then it became...
