Installing Plugins What Authors Assume you Know - 275 Words

Installing Plugins: What Authors Assume you Know (Essay Sample) Content: INSTALLING PLUGINS WHAT AUTHORS ASSUME YOU KNOW.Plugins help your website become more interactive and easy to use, thus most authors assume that the users of a website know exactly what to do or install.

Perhaps we have to start from scratch how you can get the plugins and install them.First of all you must have permissions that allow you as an administrator to install these plugins. Plugins can be active or inactive depending on the plugins that you want active. To activate and get new plugins you must know exactly where to access them. On your website or word press, go to the left side and find the tab that helps you add a plugin. Now to be specific you have to choose or type the name of the plugin you want and then once you find it you can download and install it. You will then get an option whether to make the plugin active or inactive. And so ità ¢Ã¢â€š ¬s up to you to make a decision on what you want to do with the plugin.Most developers and programmers assume that you already know the process of doing all this but then thereà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬s a lot one has to know about plugins that can help.Therefore ità ¢Ã¢â€š ¬s better to know exactly what a plugin is.

The Biggest Mistakes You Can Make in the GRE Verbal Section Text Completion Questions

If youre studying for the GRE Verbal section, youre probably thinking a lot in terms of vocabulary. Both the Text Completion and Sentence Equivalence question types involve selecting a word that fills  in a blank a classic vocabulary-type setup. While you do need a healthy vocabulary to be able to succeed on the Verbal section, people that overemphasize vocabulary (who are memorizing as many obscure words and definitions as possible) tend to feel a bit underprepared when they get to the test for the amount of critical thinking and work you need to put into  some of these questions. Before you continue, check out Part 1 of this lesson here, then keep  reading or check out our video explanation of this concept below: One thing to think about with GRE Verbal questions is how much work and critical thought youll need. Its not just  a quick response of, Oh! I know that meaning; I know that word! As youll see with the example below, a lot of times you need to be flexible in your thinking, willing to split hairs on the meanings of words that you already know, and have that willingness to start over and take a fresh look at the problem. Now lets take a look at what we mean by this concept with an example question: Because of the authors (i)______, many readers consider his latest work (ii)______ but, in reality, as many knowledgeable critics point out, the piece (iii)______. Blank (i) A) eloquence B) prejudice C) verbosity Blank (ii) D) inaccessible E) poignant F) polarizing Blank (iii) G) lack coherence and lucidity H) has no discernible conclusion I) is the most succinct on the subject This is  a classic Text Completion problem where you have three blanks and  three answer choices for each. Now lets talk about how people tend to approach this question: Test-takers  tend to find that the first two blanks agree with each other. Because of one thing, someone will think another thing that is related. As such, they  start to see relationships between some of the answer choices. They might say, Because someone is so eloquent we think that their point is poignant.' Or,  they might say, Because someone is so prejudiced people find their work is polarizing.' Or you may even say, Due to the verbosity because someone uses so many words their work is  inaccessible and difficult to get into. Now, the trick (or trap) with this kind of a setup is that test-takers tend to fall in love with their favorite pairings of the first two answer choices (A/E and   B/F). Maybe this is because people tend to start with answer choice A (eloquence) and then find a nice match for it (poignant). Then they just want to wedge in one of the last answer choices. A lot of times, test-takers will answer this question  with eloquence, poignant, and no discernible conclusion or lacks coherence. Heres where you need to think critically about this question, and where the work really comes into play. Is it the really the case that  the opposite of poignant is doesnt have a discernible conclusion that this is the counterpoint that comes with the transition word but in the middle of the sentence?   What if there isnt really  a conclusion because the authors work is open-ended? Its up for interpretation, but it could still be poignant. This is at least a possibility you might want to think about. This also gets into one other thing that people tend to be underprepared for: making sure that every word in the prompt matters. In writing this test, the question writers arent getting paid by the  word. If they put in something about knowledgeable critics, you should be asking yourself, Why would these critics be the ones to  point this  out? If youre at this point still thinking about the first two answer choices maybe youre right, but you should also see this as an invitation you have to know, particularly if theres a third blank space, with 5-7 words in some of the answer choices, that the Testmakers put that there, not because of a vocabulary word, but because of the meaning of the sentence. Youre really looking for one combination that has a very clear, very logical  meaning. So if we focus on these knowledgeable critics, again, you should ask yourself, Why would they need to be the ones to point something out? What youll find is that the correct logic  for this question is that because of the authors verbosity people find the work inaccessible and  hard to get into, but, as the knowledgeable critics will point out, We know this topic inside and out. This is actually the most succinct work youre going to find on this dense topic. Its not the authors fault for being verbose. So the correct answers are options  C, D, and I. The overall lesson of this question  is important: when you have multiple blanks, a lot of times this means you need to go to work. You cant fall in love with a strategy like, Oh, great! I went from left to right, I found an answer for Blank 1 that I like that fits with an answer from Blank 2 that I like. Now Ill just try to take  a square peg and put it in a round hole with Blank 3 so I can be done One of the great virtues with multiple blank text completion is that you need to have the patience to say, This is an okay triplet or pair, but I may be able to do better, and then to start over and really go to work. So as you approach GRE Verbal, make sure you have a robust vocabulary to go into it, but dont let that come at the expense of your willingness to roll up your sleeves, really think of the meaning of the entire sentence, and maybe start over and look for different combinations. Because in a lot of ways, GRE Verbal is about your willingness to work. Want to jump-start your  GRE preparation?
