When writing a report, it is important to avoid plagiarism by giving proper credit to sources. It is not acceptable to copy without reference wording found on the internet where there is no stated author, as this is still considered plagiarism. It is also not sufficient to simply give the author's name when copying wording found in books or on the internet. The correct choice is to give the author's name, date of publication, and page number when copying wording found in books to ensure proper referencing.
