original passage spoken by don tron from his documentary comic book craze: you know, i see grown men and women and small children—grandmas and grandpas even—getting into the scene because there has finally been a heightened awareness of just how much artistry and skill it takes to turn out something that looks like it took twenty minutes.

what is problematic about a student who paraphrases the following passage the way he does?

the problem is that the student has not given credit for the borrowed passage since there are no parentheses.
the student should have put quotation marks around the text he used word-for-word.
all of the above problems are present in the students quote.
there is no issue because credit is given and although the student used some exact words, he mostly paraphrased.

D. There is no issue because credit is given and although the student used some exact words, he mostly paraphrased.
