Lesson 5

1. There are 6 entries for habeas corpus.

2.  They are links to other useful websites outside of the Oxford resources.  The song is “My Favorite Things” from The Sound of Music.

3.  There are 14 examples of boats and ships.

4.  There are 18 titles for English Language Reference.

5.  Not quite sure what you mean by “options to process the information.”  Possibly the options to either print or email the entry?

6.  The quote from John Locke is “The end of law is, not to abolish or restrain, but to preserve and enlarge freedom.”  Not quite sure what you are looking for on the browsing part of this exercise, but if you browse “abolish : abolish or restrain” you get a list of 19 other John Locke quotations.

7.  The Maps and Illustrations search yields 3 results for Syria.  Two of them depict the Syrian flag and map entry includes both a physical and a political map of Syria.

8.  Both are similar entries encyclopedic entries that include basic information about the demographics, economy, and politics of Syria.  The World Encyclopedia includes more information about Syria’s history while A Guide to Countries of the World includes more information about recent political issues. 

I didn’t find the introduction to A Guide to Countries of the World, but I did find a statement about the resource that says it “is ideal for students and teachers of geography, politics, economics, world religions, and world history at all levels, as well as anyone wanting a home reference book to accompany an atlas.”

9.  From the Quick Search Box, I found 25 entries for “recycling.”  I got lost on the Refine by Book option, though.  If you first choose one of the options on the left under Refine by Subject, then you can Refine by Book.
