Are there ways you could have been more responsive to group communications or accountable to your responsibilities? 2) How would you describe your experience as a research interviewer?

Success in the field requires talent, personal skills, and professional skills. Fans may be attracted to the physical attributes at first sight, but artists have to be talented and carry themselves with the utmost professionalism to keep them. In today’s world, audiences tend to prefer natural beauties. Social media has made the world a small village, allowing people to interact with other people from different ethnic backgrounds and geographical locations. This has made people appreciate diversity and embrace people from different cultures. People appreciate these natural distinctions and make them love specific artists. EXO, the best boy band, is a South-Korean Chinese boy band based in SEO. The band was formed in 2011 by SM Entertainment. The band’s music, which mainly consists of pop and hip-hop music, is written in Mandarin, Korean or Japanese. Forbes Korea Power Celebrity ranked the band among the top five most influential celebrities between 2014 to 2018. Appearance is the gateway to a person’s brand. Naturally, it is the first thing someone sees. Therefore, it is commonly a basis for how people are judged. Society needs to stop putting people under pressure concerning their physical appearance and embrace the concept of inner beauty in a person more. People have different reasons for choosing plastic surgery. Most of the time, people are under pressure to seek perfection. It is natural for people with natural defects to make changes, provided such procedures do not harm them physically. We should embrace such people as well and not judge them harshly for their choices on their bodies.

MLA In-Text Citations: The Basics

Guidelines for referring to the works of others in your text using MLA style are covered throughout the MLA Handbook and in chapter 7 of the MLA Style Manual. Both books provide extensive examples, so it’s a good idea to consult them if you want to become even more familiar with MLA guidelines or if you have a particular reference question.

BASIC IN-TEXT CITATION RULES

In MLA Style, referring to the works of others in your text is done using parenthetical citations. This method involves providing relevant source information in parentheses whenever a sentence uses a quotation or paraphrase. Usually, the simplest way to do this is to put all of the source information in parentheses at the end of the sentence (i.e., just before the period). However, as the examples below will illustrate, there are situations where it makes sense to put the parenthetical elsewhere in the sentence, or even to leave information out.

General Guidelines

• The source information required in a parenthetical citation depends (1) upon the source medium (e.g. print, web, DVD) and (2) upon the source’s entry on the Works Cited page.
• Any source information that you provide in-text must correspond to the source information on the Works Cited page. More specifically, whatever signal word or phrase you provide to your readers in the text must be the first thing that appears on the left-hand margin of the corresponding entry on the Works Cited page.

IN-TEXT CITATIONS: AUTHOR-PAGE STYLE

MLA format follows the author-page method of in-text citation. This means that the author’s last name and the page number(s) from which the quotation or paraphrase is taken must appear in the text, and a complete reference should appear on your Works Cited page. The author’s name may appear either in the sentence itself or in parentheses following the quotation or paraphrase, but the page number(s) should always appear in the parentheses, not in the text of your sentence. For example:

Wordsworth stated that Romantic poetry was marked by a “spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings” (263).

Romantic poetry is characterized by the “spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings” (Wordsworth 263).

Wordsworth extensively explored the role of emotion in the creative process (263).

Both citations in the examples above, (263) and (Wordsworth 263), tell readers that the information in the sentence can be located on page 263 of a work by an author named Wordsworth. If readers want more information about this source, they can turn to the Works Cited page, where, under the name of Wordsworth, they would find the following information:

Wordsworth, William. Lyrical Ballads. Oxford UP, 1967.

IN-TEXT CITATIONS FOR PRINT SOURCES WITH KNOWN AUTHOR

For print sources like books, magazines, scholarly journal articles, and newspapers, provide a signal word or phrase (usually the author’s last name) and a page number. If you provide the signal word/phrase in the sentence, you do not need to include it in the parenthetical citation.

Human beings have been described by Kenneth Burke as “symbol-using animals” (3).

Human beings have been described as “symbol-using animals” (Burke 3).

These examples must correspond to an entry that begins with Burke, which will be the first thing that appears on the left-hand margin of an entry on the Works Cited page:

Burke, Kenneth. Language as Symbolic Action: Essays on Life, Literature, and Method. University of California Press, 1966.
