Question textShown below is an excerpt from Yi and Zhang's article (some of the information from before appears again). In this excerpt, the authors comment on the implications of their study's findings for mainland China. Further below are four examples of students' writing in which they have tried to use their own words to present information from the original source by Yi and Zhang. Have they sufficiently paraphrased the source text, or have they plagiarized Yi and Zhang's words? Feedback will be available after you have passed the task. [table] | ...The results of this study imply that high home price inflation can account for about 65% of the drastic fertility decrease in Hong Kong for the past four decades... The main results of this article may also shed new light on the reconsideration of continuing the ‘‘one child policy’’ in mainland China... Since home prices have been soaring beginning from the late 1990s, especially in the urban and coastal areas in China, the high inflation of home prices will change households’ budget constraints and may spontaneously induce a demographic transition. The remaining question is whether the results derived from a metropolis such as Hong Kong could be extended to a country with a vast territory and with the largest population in the world. | 1. Recent research has shown that home price inflation can cause extreme fertility decline. The results of this research have been used to argue that since home prices have been soaring beginning from the late 1990s in mainland China, especially in the urban and coastal areas in China, the high inflation of home prices will change households' budget constraints and may spontaneously induce a demographic transition. Because of this, the one-child policy should be reconsidered (Yi & Zhang, 2010). Multiple choice 1 Question 1Well-paraphrased, does not contain plagiarismInsufficient paraphrasing, contains plagiarism of languageThe given paraphrase is not effective due to its use of several phrases and expressions taken directly from the original text, with only slight modifications in word order and structure. Also, not all the ideas derived from the source (the results of this research…..transition) are not properly cited.Mark 1.00 out of 1.00The correct answer is: Insufficient paraphrasing, contains plagiarism of language 2. One study conducted by Yi and Zhang (2010) has suggested that much of Hong Kong's decline in fertility has been caused by inflation in the price of homes. The authors noted that home prices in some parts of mainland China have also risen steeply in the recent past, and that this might cause a fall in fertility which would call into question the future of existing family planning policies (Yi & Zhang, 2010). Multiple choice 2 Question 1Well-paraphrased, does not contain plagiarismInsufficient paraphrasing, contains plagiarism of languageMark 1.00 out of 1.00The correct answer is: Well-paraphrased, does not contain plagiarism 3. The results of one study shed light on whether the "one child policy" in China should be reconsidered. That study found that 65% of Hong Kong's fertility decline has been caused by expensive housing. The study concludes that like Hong Kong, home prices have been going up in mainland China from the late 1990s in the urban and coastal areas. This will change families' budgets and induce a demographic change (Yi & Zhang, 2010). Multiple choice 3 Question 1Well-paraphrased, does not contain plagiarismInsufficient paraphrasing, contains plagiarism of languageThis paraphrase is not effective because it does not accurately represent the original text's main ideas and presents the information in a disjointed manner. Also, not all the ideas derived from the source are properly cited.Mark 1.00 out of 1.00The correct answer is: Insufficient paraphrasing, contains plagiarism of language 4. Yi and Zhang (2010) have pointed out that like Hong Kong, home prices in China's coastal cities have also risen sharply in recent years, and that this will likely result in a fall in fertility similar to Hong Kong's. They point out that this will have implications for the future of the one-child policy.
