Answer
Brief Explanations:
- For the first question:
- In MLA format, the header (with author's last name and page number) must appear on every page.
- The header is usually ½ inch from the top (not 1 inch), so the second option is wrong.
- The author's last name and page number are included in the header.
- For the second question:
- In MLA, each new paragraph is indented ½ inch from the side (not related to the header for this indentation). The title is centered (not indented ½ inch from the header in the way described), the student's name etc. are not indented ½ inch from the side (they are in a block on the first page), and the header is ½ inch from the top but that's not an indentation of an element like a paragraph.
- For the third question:
- MLA requires all lines (from header to works cited) to be double - spaced.
Answer:
- First question: The header must appear on every page of the paper, The author’s last name must be included in the header, The page number must be included in the header.
- Second question: Each new paragraph, 1/2 inch from the side of the page.
- Third question: All lines must be double spaced, from the header to the works cited page.
