Why you shouldn't copy work off the Internet! 1st assignment

Why you shouldn't copy work off the Internet

In class, I told you that you  should be careful about what you post to the Internet (ex. Facebook, Qu Qu, Twitter, Google+ and more) because your online reputation can’t be edited or changed easily. There’s also the problem of posting and finding incorrect information online. For example, you can also find incorrect or misleading facts that seem correct on the Internet.  Many times you need to find information for a paper or homework, the Internet is right there to help you—or hurt you!
I searched for “No Speak English” by Sandra Cisneros and found this essay that looked really good until I read it. This was the revision--final draft!
Can you find the mistakes? There’s one fact and one big literary technique mistake (choice and analysis).
 Post your answers – A) the incorrect fact--so easy to miss!
                                     B) the correct technique and analysis.
Good Luck!

  1. "The man had to pull her, the taxicab driver had to push. Push; pull. Push, pull. Poof!" Another literary device that Cisneros uses is imagery. “ i thought is wrong, the sentences is use the repetition, the word “ push ” use the 3 times。so , i thought this sentence is big literary technique mistake
