I have a really good memory. I remember most of what I read although I can’t always remember where I read it. My essays are usually full of memorized passages. That’s not plagiarism.

Question

Plagiarism is presenting someone else’s words or ideas as your own, regardless of whether you can recall the original source.

1. Relevant knowledge points and concepts
- Definition of plagiarism: using another’s exact words, distinctive phrases, structure, or ideas without proper attribution.
- Types: verbatim copying, paraphrasing without credit, mosaic plagiarism, and using memorized text.
- Exceptions: common knowledge or original ideas you created; properly cited quotations and paraphrases are allowed.

2. Step-by-step reasoning process
- The student “remembers most of what [they] read” and uses “memorized passages” in essays.
- Memorized passages originated from other authors; using them in writing transfers those authors’ words/ideas into the student’s essay.
- If the student does not attribute the original source (because they “can’t always remember where [they] read it”), the reader will reasonably assume the language and ideas are the student’s own.
- That lack of attribution meets the definition of plagiarism.

3. Intermediate logical steps (analogous to calculations)
- Premise A: Using someone else’s words/ideas = requires citation.
- Premise B: Memorized passages are someone else’s words/ideas.
- Premise C: No citation is provided because source is not remembered.
- Conclusion: The use constitutes plagiarism.

4. Why the correct answer is correct
- The statement claims “That’s not plagiarism.” This contradicts the definition: failing to credit the original author when using their language or ideas is plagiarism even if you reproduced it from memory. Proper citation is required.

5. Why the other option is incorrect
- Answer option “True” would imply that using memorized passages without citation is acceptable; this is incorrect because it ignores attribution requirements and misrepresents authorship.

6. Conclusion
- Therefore the correct response is False, which matches the provided answer.
