1A.The results for putting in the words death AND penalty were 934 where as the results for putting in the words DEATH PENALTY with NO and plus quotes around the words came up 479 results were much better then the first search.

1B.the words death and penalty appear in some article titles it is never shown in the small text under on the muse website it also uses one of the words in the titles sometimes but not the other like death but doesnt say anything about penalty and also it takes your words out of context and gives you articles about things having to do with the death penaltys like examples of it like capital punishment.

1c.if you wanted the exact phase death penalty to appear you would take the words death penalty and put it in quotes like this “death penalty” so that the search base will reconize that it is one word or topic you are looking for articles about and not things about just penalties  or articles about death

3 to create a phase using the boolean operaters  you must use anything you are trying to search with the words inbetween AND, NOT, and OR then using those phases and you will rechieve different results you can also put each of the terms your trying to searh in parathesises with the and or and not phases and it will search those terms  when each term is topic as one topic and it will search each topic as one topic but show the results for both topics in one search.
