using quotations
Here are some key points to
remember when using quotations:
1) Incorporate quotations into your
sentences.
One way that Jonas was different was because he had "light eyes"(21) while everyone else's were darker.
2) Keep quotations to a few words. Quotations are like salt in food: a little
bit gives flavour; too much ruins the dish.
3) Use quoted material to support your
points.
4) Don’t use too many quotations. Pick two or three quotations to support your
brainstormed points and leave the rest.
5) Make sure the quoted material is
exactly as written in the story.
6) Avoid repeating quotations.
7) After quoting material, go on to
explain why the quotation is relevant.
8) Avoid ending paragraphs with
quotations.
