Copy editing

A scientist is hard at work in his lab, working with a single hair of the extinct woolly mammoth. The well preserved DNA was a success in itself for the scientist, making his mission possible. He plans to make another copy of the woolly mammoth with the help of its DNA and its close relative, the elephant. The possibilities with the perfection of his work are endless. The world will not be ready for his great feat. This is the very near future. This is the cloning of extinct animals. This is…

Stage One: Your reading history and practice Besides what you had to read for school, how much did you read growing up? I did have any habits of reading. I have not done that much reading when I was growing up, even in French. As I mention before, I started learning, speaking, reading, and writing in English on the second of September 2014, when I went to South African. Even before that, reading was not something I really like to do. My reading experiences are from the past two…

help you, you should never stop correcting and improving your work. Every time a piece is re-read there are always things to improve on, expand upon and word differently. The first piece you turn is going to be good, but with better editing and correcting the final copy can be greatly improved. The last thing about Comm 334 is to use the AP style book. Often, when I found I had a question I found it could be answered from the book. It is a great resource, to truly become a better writer is…

to the problem of cancelling the publication of “Go Set a Watchman” would to put the original untouched copy of the manuscript online or another outlet so that anticipating fans of the original could at least see what idea Harper Lee had for a sequel. Her family would probably better receive this method because I wouldn’t be publishing for release and making profits, also no one would be editing/changing the original message of what Lee was trying to convey. In conclusion, I believe that my…

into spermatogonial stem cells, so the mice testes failed to expand and thus lowered their potential sperm counts later in life. Since Rhox genes are found on the X chromosome; it makes sense that it affects male fertility, because males only have one copy of the X chromosome, so mutations are more likely to pose a problem for them. Researchers also found that Rhox genes could be involved in testicular cancer due to cells that are frozen in earlier stages, and the genes might also prove helpful…

these assignments afforded an opportunity for us to delve deeper into the writing process. Each of these genre explorations (the critical analysis less so) represented a process involving inventive topic creation and development, writing, reviewing, editing, and reflection. We read our papers aloud, workshopped sections of them on the smartboard, explored the uses of premade organizing…

Since the creation of photography, photographic images have been used to shape the public’s knowledge through means such as staged photos, photo manipulation, and photos portrayed in the media. These photos have been used to give a visual taste of history all the way from World Wars to nationwide depressions. The camera has been a very significant part of history due to the fact of it giving the opportunity to see what things looked like during different times. Photographers like Henry…

Around the world people grow up learning a native language, some people grow up learning two. Many people move to a new area where customs, beliefs and language differ from what they’re used to. This can be a harrowing struggle, especially for children still in school. Trying to learn for your education while not knowing the language can be difficult but teachers can help. By analyzing their students and their progress teachers can help these students accomplish what they need to. In Mr.…

reason that, doing those steps took me a long time to do. Those steps are polishing, and forming a good topic sentence; they took me almost an hour and a half to finish. Forming a good topic sentence is confusing; also, I always look back at books for editing grammar on how to use commas, colons, and semi-colons properly, and refer to the dictionary and thesaurus for better word choice, which consumes more time rather than writing a draft and generating ideas combined. Therefore, the next time I…
