Answer
A
using your own words to tell the central ideas of a text
B
retelling what you read in the same exact words as the author
C
telling a friend the main things that happen in a novel you just read
D
writing every detail from a science article so you do not miss anything
E
coming out of a movie you just saw and retelling the big things in it

Explanation

A summary gives the central ideas or most important events in a shorter form, usually in your own words. So using your own words to tell a text’s central ideas, sharing a novel’s main events, and retelling the big things from a movie are all examples. Copying the author’s exact words or including every detail is not summarizing.
