Lesson C: Keys to a Successful Interview (Summary) p. 46 Understanding how to restate an idea and summarize the information you have read is an important reading skill. - Restating means expressing the same idea in different words, but not necessarily in a shorter form. Restating an idea is just saying it in different words and with different sentence structure. Use your own words — use synonyms and/or change the sentence structure without changing the meaning of the idea - Summarizing means quickly going over main ideas in a shorter from than the original idea. E.g. Ifyou had to tell someone about what you just read, you probably would not restate every sentence you read in the book word for word. Instead, you would rephrase the facts that you have leamed and summarize key points. Do not describe non-essential parts of the text. If they want to know the details, you can read the whole text. Summarizing: Example So how do yougo about your: and ‘and analyzing the opportunities and threats that flow from them’ is a useful that helps you to do this.
