 Nowadays, we gain information from different and
multiple sources. Unlike before, information now is
conveniently e verywhere and anywhere. Gone are the
days when information was limited to printed sources like
textbooks, manuals, pamphlets, etc. It is also much more
convenient now to verify data or information through an
internet browser, an online encyclopedia, or a video
streaming platform. Given the variety and differences of
the sources of information available, it makes sense to
simplify this complex web of information by learning the
skill of summarizing.

SUMMARY
Summarizing is a powerful reading and
writing strategy. It increases
comprehension and retention of
information. When you summarize, you
restate the most important information
of a text, using your own words.
A summary is a short retelling of a
story or a text that includes only
the most important information.
 Summaries include the main idea of
the text and omit minor details.

Summaries are considerably

shorter than the original text.

One day, the wisest quails said,”Listen brothers, I have a plan, when the quail-
catcher throw his net over us, let us put or heads through the mesh in the et and
fly away.” It was a very bright idea. All the quails must be happy about it. They
all agreed and so when the quail-catcher came the next day, the quails did as
the wise quail told them to do. The quail-catcher had a hard time taking the net
from the thorn brush.
