3. Be sure to interpret the information you obtain and explain it in your own words, do not commit plagiarism by quoting the author word for word. Limit your use of quotations as you should be able to analyze and explain the concepts by paraphrasing them if you think they are important.
3. Keep your prose objective: This is a research paper, and you should not refer to the reader in your text with terms such as “you” or “your”. keep your prose objective: for example, instead of writing “you will get lung cancer if you smoke”, you should write, “a person can get lung cancer if they smoke”.
