Explanation

A good summary identifies the article’s central ideas, restates them in the writer’s own words, and condenses them into a shorter form. That means Trina should think about the central ideas, paraphrase them, write them in her own words, and keep the summary concise. A summary should not match the article’s length or include every detail, and copying sentences without quotation marks is not appropriate.
