Summary of the Film The Little Mermaid<\/em><\/h4>\n
\"\"<\/div>\n
\n
In Disney’s 1989 film, The Little Mermaid<\/em>, 16-year-old mermaid Ariel is fascinated with life on land. Despite being forbidden to visit the surface by her father\u2014King Triton\u2014Ariel swims to the surface to save the life of a handsome human prince, Eric, and she falls in love. In order to win the heart of her prince, Ariel makes a dangerous deal with the evil sea witch\u2014Ursula\u2014giving her three days as a human to win a kiss from her true love. With the help of her friends\u2014Sebastian (a crab), Flounder (a fish), and Scuttle (a seagull), Ariel is almost successful, missing her deadline by just a moment.<\/div>\n
Ursula transforms Ariel into a helpless polyp and imprisons her in sea cave. When King Triton is told of Ariel’s predicament, he gives Ursula his powerful Trident in exchange for his daughter’s life. After Ursula uses the Trident’s power to become the queen of the ocean, Prince Eric sets out to sea to destroy the sea witch, save the ocean, and and win Ariel’s heart.<\/div>\n
After a spectacular battle, Eric defeats Ursula and returns the Trident’s power to King Triton. Moved by Ariel and Eric’s love, Triton makes Ariel human and gives his blessing on their marriage\u2014bringing together the worlds of land and sea. Ultimately, Ariel learns that she can overcome incredible challenges to achieve her dreams with persistance and the help of her friends.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Summary of the Song “Under the Sea,” from The Little Mermaid<\/em><\/h4>\n
\n
In the lyrics to “Under the Sea,” Sebastian encourages Ariel to abandon her dreams of living life on land, and instead, enjoy the beauty and wonder of her ocean world. While Ariel imagines a fantastic world on land, Sebastian argues that she doesn’t realize the work and struggle that accompanies living in the human world.<\/div>\n
Besides that, all of Ariel’s dreaming means that she’s missing out on the amazing life she has under the sea. Accompanied by a variety of colorful, weird, and wonderful sea creatures, Sebastian argues that life under the sea is carefree and happy.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Using Summary<\/h3>\n

A summary is when you summarize the source\u2019s main ideas\u2014the whole thing\u2014in your own words. Using summaries, particularly with quotations, helps readers understand how the (whole) source fits into your work and helps establish your credibility as a writer.<\/p>\n

example | summary of a 19 page journal article<\/h5>\n
Summaries need citations. In the example below, the author and article title are included in the beginning of the sentence.<\/div>\n
Pamela Poovey’s article, \u201cDairy Farms and the Issue of Outdated Technology,\u201d examines the effects of technological obsolescence on mid-sized dairy farms. She explains how outdated technology relegate mid-sized dairy farms to an untenable position\u2014too big and too technologically dependent to market themselves as family farms, but too small and too technologically sluggish to keep up with large scale factory farms. Poovey argues this inability to shift markets will push mid-sized farms out of the dairy market within the next ten years.<\/div>\n
bad example | writing without summary of source<\/h5>\n
Without a summary, the quote below seems stuck into the text. Also, the reader is concerned about several things: the writer\u2019s confidence, source\u2019s content, and how the quote relates to the topic.<\/div>\n
In a Modern Piracy<\/em> journal article, Riley states \u201cfour out of every five men of Pangu will participate in some form of sea piracy in their lifetimes” (78).<\/div>\n
better example | same piece with a summary of source<\/h5>\n
Summary allows the reader to trust the writer; it allows the text to better develop; and, equally importantly, it sets up the quote.<\/div>\n
In a Modern Piracy<\/em> journal article, Riley explores anthropological research on the tiny Polynesian island of Pangu. Despite Pangunians relative isolation and small population\u2014their economic fortunes are relatively stable due to their proximity to the Australia-Mexico sea trade routes. Riley’s article explains how even though “four out of every five men of Pangu will participate in some form of sea piracy in their lifetimes,” with a total population of just over 300, Pangu’s piracy has relatively little impact on the trade of surrounding nations (78).<\/div>\n

PARAPHRASE<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
\n
when to<\/div>\n
paraphrase<\/div>\n<\/td>\n

When you want to use the details but the original language itself is not particularly striking or important to the point you want to make.<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\n
how to<\/div>\n
paraphrase<\/div>\n<\/td>\n
\n
Paraphrasing involves putting a passage from source material into your own words, usually condensing it. Paraphrase must also be attributed to the original source.*<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Paraphrase of the Song “Under the Sea”<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/td>\n\n
original lyrics<\/div>\n
(with citation and reference)<\/div>\n
In “Under the Sea,” from Disney’s 1989 animated film The Little Mermaid<\/em>, Sebastian sings:<\/div>\n
“The seaweed is always greener<\/div>\n
In somebody else’s lake<\/div>\n
You dream about going up there<\/div>\n
But that is a big mistake<\/div>\n
Just look at the world around you<\/div>\n
Right here on the ocean floor<\/div>\n
Such wonderful things surround you<\/div>\n
What more is you lookin’ for?”<\/div>\n

my paraphrase<\/div>\n
(with citation and reference)<\/div>\n

In “Under the Sea,” from Disney’s 1989 animated film The Little Mermaid<\/em>, Sebastian makes a \u201cgrass is greener\u201d argument. He says that Ariel shouldn\u2019t dream about a different life in a different place, because they aren\u2019t better than what she has now. Under the sea\u2014where Ariel lives\u2014is filled with wonder. What else could she want beyond the beauty of her ocean home?<\/p>\n

Quotation from The Little Mermaid<\/em><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\n
integrated quotation<\/div>\n
(with citation and reference)<\/div>\n
In Disney’s The Little Mermaid<\/em>, some of the fish and sea mammal characters’ species are based on species in the natural world. For example, Sebastian is clearly a red Caribbean hermit crab (Coenobita clypeatus, commonly known as the soldier crab), and Scuttle is a common seagull (Larus canusis, known as the mew gull or sea mew). However, several characters’ species are either unknonwn or combinations of two or more different species. Flounder is one such character. Despite his name\u2014Flounder\u2014the fish\u2019s odd shape and bright coloring make Flounder\u2019s species unclear. What Flounder does clarify, in his own words, is \u201cI am not a guppy.\u201d<\/div>\n
