B - rewriting the author's opinion with different words.

Anytime you use someone else's thoughts/opinions and do not give the author credit by referencing them, it is considered plagiarism. You must always give credit and cite references.

Answer:

Rewriting an author’s opinion, with different words.

Step-by-step explanation:

The most important rule when it comes to plagiarism is that, if you take an original idea from some source, you have to provide full references. This means giving credit to the author and providing all the information necessary for the reader to find that text. This is a necessary step, regardless of whether you are simply rewriting an author's opinion with different words.
