What is plagiarism? and what can you do to avoid it?

Answer:

I wonder if you could disagree. Say the punishment of wearing the scarlet letter is much less barbaric than the stoning that she might have suffered under mosaic law.

Explanation: Adultery destroys the love and trust that form the basis for a happy marriage. It causes the breakdown of families. In previous centuries, stable marriages and families were the basis for communities and civil society. Anyone who caused disruption undermined the common good. The punishment served as a deterrent.

In today's culture of pleasure-seeking and lack of commitment to long-term marriage, it may seem harsh to punish someone for "doing what comes naturally." But look at the consequences. Single parents who can hardly support themselves and their kids. Kids constantly in visitation switches between parents. Unplanned pregnancies and abortions. If adultry were less tolerated, family and community life would be more stable.

In order to answer this question, we need to understand the meaning of “bigwig”. A bigwig refers to an important person, an expert, who has vast knowledge in an area of activity, interest, or expertise. Once we have the definition of “bigwig”, we can infer that a bacterial bigwig is, therefore, a person who is an expert in the area of bacteriology, a science that deals with bacteria and their relations to medicine, industry, and agriculture.

I woke up...

It was one of those days were I really had dreamed something at night. I was trying to remember the whole thing, but it felt like the more I tried, the more I forgot. I had little fragments in my memory: it was something about a dog, a Ferris wheel, and some sort of cupcakes...

I suddenly let go of the dream, when I looked at the clock and realized that I was late. Why did nobody tell me anything?, was the only thing I could think of. My backpack was on the floor for some reason; I quickly picked everything up and prayed I didn't forget a thing.

I found the clothes I was going to wear and put them on. In days like these, I usually have to skip breakfast, so I was trying to ignore the hunger that I was starting to feel. Bacon and pancakes would be great, my stomach seemed to say.

I ran into the kitchen and there was nobody there. So they left without me?

A lot of ideas started moving around inside my head: How can I get to school? Should I call someone? Is this a good excuse not to go? Will I get in trouble? And the most important one: Why did this happen?

I felt scared and excited at the same time, since this was the first time this happened to me. I even imagined what it would be like if I lived on my own in that house. Maybe they wouldn't come back. Maybe this is my life now...

Then I suddenly realized: Today it's Sunday. No school. We oversleep.

I wonder if I can get back to the dog, the Ferris wheel, and the cupcakes, without anyone noticing...

This story took place last year. I had two close friends at school. We used to go out together and had a lot of fun. We liked talkiing about our crushes at school. It was nice to keep secrets ! When Friend's Day came last year, we made plans to go out for drink because we wanted to celebrate our friendship. We had planned to go out in the evening, so in the morning I went out shopping ; I wanted to buy my friends a gift for Friends' Day. Although my pocket money was not much  ,  I wanted to buy  a nice gift. I had spent a lot of time walking around the shopping centre till I decided to buy some nice greeting cards. All the gifts were really expensive , so I got into the shop and picked up the most beautiful cards there. The evening came, we went out for a drink ; we exchanged gifts and we said "thank you". My friends looked at my cards and left them on the table. However, Ana put it in her backpack before we left the place. I could not see what my other friend, Sara, did with the card. Some days passed. It was the birthday of one of our class mates at school. On that day ,everyone in class was excited because it was Laura's birthday. During breaktime, Laura approached Ana and me and showed us the beautiful card Sara had given her. It was the card I had given Sara on Friend's Day! I felt awful! I learnt about disappointment and that friendship was something new; new but not nice.
