Answer 1

Answer choices?

encyclopedias
dictionaries
journals
almanacs

Answer 3

What do you think the answer is? :)

Answer 4

is it journals

Answer 5

im not too sure on that one

Answer 6

no it is either dictionaries or almanacs

Answer 7

No, but that is a good guess! If you're writing a research paper, and you need help to spell a word, you look in a dictionary. But since it isn't the actual information that you are using in your essay, you wouldn't need to cite it.

BUT, an almanac is real information that would need to be cited. Definition of almanac: http://prntscr.com/4mc6sg
Your teacher would need to know where you got such information from to confirm it's authenticity. Whereas with a dictionary, you wouldn't need to do so...

Does that make sense? >.<
