Their influence on us should not be lightly considered.

The assignment aims to analyze your writing and reading skills. For this reason, I cannot write your summary, but I will show you how to write it.

Steps to write a summary

  1. Read the entire text until you understand it.
  2. Mark the most important parts of the text.
  3. Rewrite these parts, changing the words but keeping the meaning.

Paraphrasing, on the other hand, is the way of rewriting a sentence using synonyms, that is, words different from those used in the original text, but which have the same meaning.

You can paraphrase the sentence "We should do more, and talk less," which is the last sentence of the text as follows: We should talk little and act efficiently."

An example of how you might write your summary can be seen below.

It was proposed that everyone should have the same relevance when speaking, allowing marginalized people to have the possibility to express themselves and could benefit materially. This is because even though meetings have been held, progress has been small. After all, a lot has been said, but little has been done and the correct thing is that the opposite is done.
