2. What are some steps to follow when writing a summary of a text?
@KyanTheDoodle
Think about what a summary is. Summaries summarize the ideas throughout the whole text. The very first thing to do when writing a summary is to restate the thesis (or main idea) of the article. Can you guess what would come next in the summary?
No :(
what are the other steps?

This site should help, they word it better than I can haha: http://www.wikihow.com/Write-a-Conclusion
thx
You're welcome. Let me know if you need anything else.
3. The first sentence of a summary should always include what two items?
As the site that I linked you and also from what I told you, the first sentence should start with a statement such as "Ultimately," and it should also restate the main idea (thesis) of your article. For example, if I was writing about why chocolate ice cream is better than vanilla ice cream, I may conclude like this: "Ultimately, chocolate ice cream is better than vanilla ice cream. Various studies have concluded that more than half of the population favor chocolate ice cream over vanilla ice cream."
ok and the other one?
See what my first sentence does there? It includes a good starting conclusive statement, "Ultimately," then restates my thesis, which is "chocolate ice cream is better than vanilla."
I just told you what both of the things are. Key words: "First" and "then."
okay
4. How can two authors of non-fiction express similar opinions in different ways?
Good starting conclusive statement and restating the thesis. Those are the two.
Please post your new question in a separate thread.
ok
