Quotation?

We use quotation in our writing, aiming to strength our evidence, and making our passage more convince. What is quotation? Quotation is that we use a sentence or a paragraph from other people's article in our own article as an prove or evidence. We use it often especially when we are wring an article which is highly logic.

When we use quotation, we should put the source of the quotation, or it will be considered as plagiarize. For example, when we use a sentence, a picture or an paragraph from a website, we should put the URL on the bottom of the article and put the name of author if necessary. When we use a quotation form a book or a magazine, we should put the name, the author and the publisher in the bottom of the article. Then people who read your article can find the resource very easily.

How to chose the quotation? It is a very simple question. We chose the sentences and articles which are highly related to our own topic. In some case, we should use the whole article as the background or something else. If so, the quotation can be very long, then, in my opinion, I will put the source of the article on my own passage, tell readers where to find it. Then it can save a lot of space.

Overall, quotation is necessary, but we should correctly face it, and in this case it will help us a lot.
