Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 11.49 Quoting, Paraphrasing, and Summarizing Ethically skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

What is the most accurate critique?

AIt is excellent because more details always make a better summary.

BIt becomes ethical only if the student removes citations.

CIt is not an effective summary because it misses the central argument and over-focuses on minor points.

DIt counts as paraphrase, not summary, so it cannot be wrong.

Solution & Explanation:Summaries should capture the main claim and key reasoning. A list of minor details can distort emphasis and fail the purpose of summary.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

Which student paraphrase best follows Ellis’s idea?

AEllis argues paraphrase is a synonym swap (40).

BEllis argues that real paraphrasing rewrites an idea from scratch while keeping meaning, rather than just swapping a few words (40).

CEllis argues paraphrase is just changing a few words (40).

DEllis argues paraphrase is copying but citing (40).

Solution & Explanation:The correct paraphrase captures 're-creation of meaning' and rejects synonym swapping. The distractors contradict the excerpt.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

Which APA in-text citation is correct for the quote if the author is not named in the sentence?

A(Nguyen, 2024)

B(Nguyen p. 7, 2024)

C(Cognitive Classroom, 2024, p. 7)

D(Nguyen, 2024, p. 7)

Solution & Explanation:APA direct quotes include author, year, and a page number (or other locator).
