The Tragedy of Julius Caesar, Part 1: Applying Reading Strategies — Quiz

Question 2 • English Language Arts 10

How are paraphrasing and summarizing similar? Choose three correct answers.

Answer
A
They are longer than the original text.
B
They are written with new words.
C
They include exact quotes from the original text.
D
They include details of the text.
E
They include the main idea of the original text.

Explanation

Both paraphrasing and summarizing use new words rather than copying the original wording, so B is correct. They also convey information from the text: a paraphrase may include its details, while a summary includes the most important details, and both express the main idea. They are not necessarily longer than the original or made up of exact quotes.
