The examples of plagiarism among the options you provided are:
1. **Ron has copied the quote but changed the verb tense.** - This is considered plagiarism because the original idea or phrasing is still being used without proper attribution, even if the verb tense has been altered.
2. **Henry has copied the quote over from a textbook.** - This is plagiarism because copying a quote directly from a source without proper citation constitutes unethical use of someone else's work.
3. **Abdul has paraphrased the text.** - This could be plagiarism if he did not properly credit the original source, even though he has reworded it. Paraphrasing without citation is still considered plagiarism.
The other two options, where Amy quotes the writer with a source and Stephen paraphrases the idea with a reference, do not exemplify plagiarism as they include proper attribution.
