USING QUOTATIONS

Here are some key points to remember when using quotations:

1) Incorporate quotations into your sentences.

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 three or four quotations to support your brainstormed points and leave the rest.

5) Make sure the quoted material is exactly as written in the story.  Use … and [] to make minor grammatical or stylistic changes.

6) Avoid repeating quotations. One-time use only.

7) After quoting material, go on to explain why the quotation is relevant.

Mr. Wei was a very serious teacher who established "strict standards" for himself and for his students. This rigidity extended to his interactions with Wang Wei.

8) Avoid ending paragraphs with quotations.

Indirect and direct speech.

Direct speech

Rose said, "I will be absent tomorrow."

Indirect speech

Rose said that she would be absent tomorrow.

intent, but not exact words

My mother said that you have to be honest in your life.

Direct speech

"You have to be honest in your life," my mother said.

Indirect speech

My mother said that I have to be honest in my life.

PRACTICE:

"Song-dynasty style"

The young students couldn't read the "Song-dynasty style" (3) letters, but Mr Wei didn't consider this when he was getting after Wang Wei.

The teacher used the "investigative method" to find out what happened.

My grandma said, "Get me out of jail."

Mr Wei didn't have much "teaching experience"(2).

"I felt the blood rush to my head."

Mr. Wei "felt the blood rush" (3) to his face when he realized what he had done.

Mr. Wei "felt the blood rush to [his] head" (3) when he realized what he had done.

[  ] square brackets - change a word if we have to

Mr Wei was embarrassed to "show [his] face"(3) to the students.

·      Incorporate quoted material into your sentences.

·      Not copying sentences

STRATEGIES FOR GATHERING MATERIAL FOR QUOTATIONS:

Make notes- key words or phrases, repeated words or phrase, anything that jumps out, anything quotable for essays

plagiarism - copying from another text pretending that you wrote it

-easy to spot, tone, voice different

"ancient characters"

Mr Wei got angry when he saw the "ancient characters"(2) that were carved into the desk.

1,2,3,4 words - that's about the max for a paragraph

If you are writing a 20-page paper, you quote much longer passages.

Should you quote it or not?

Is the word special, or is it an everyday word?

"inscribed" "all twisted"

Read twice: once for plot, setting, character

second time for deeper meaning, symbolism, quotable words and phrases

Note down quotable words and phrases

4-5 quoted words should be enough

Using Quotations

Here are some key points to remember when using quotations:

1)   Incorporate quotations into your sentences.

Mr Wei was angry because the desk was damaged: "ancient characters"

XXX

Mr Wei was angry because the desk was damaged with "ancient characters" carved into it. Even though Wang Wei didn't how to read these letters, the teacher didn't think about this fact.

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 four or five quotations to support your brainstormed points and leave the rest.

5)   Make sure the quoted material is exactly as written in the story.  Use … and [] to make minor grammatical or stylistic changes.

6)   Avoid repeating quotations.

7)   After quoting material, go on to explain why the quotation is relevant.
