Paraphrased Example

Original Passage from a Book by Cindy Silver p.5 "Ancient Egyptians believed that Osiris, a good and wise king, was the first pharaoh. He spread knowledge to other parts of the world, while his wife, Isis, ruled Egypt in his place." Reworded Information: King Osiris was the first pharaoh who imparted wisdom to his people. Queen Isis ruled Egypt while he traveled from home (Silver 5).

Summary Example

Original Passage from a Book by Jackle and Silver: "By 1964, there were an estimated 33,500 restaurants in the United States calling themselves 'drive-ins,' but only 24,500 offered hot food, the remainder being ice cream and soft-drink stands primarily. Layout varied from drive-in to drive-in, but three principal spaces could always be found: a canopy-covered driveway adjacent to the building, a kitchen, and a carhop station linking kitchen and parking lot. The smallest drive-ins offered carhop service only, but many also featured indoor lunch counters and booths, sometimes on the scale of the coffee shop." Reworded Information: By the mid-1960s, over 30,000 self-proclaimed "drive-in" restaurants in the United States existed. Most served hot meals while others served just ice cream and soft drinks. Not all drive-ins looked the same; however, they each had a covered driveway, a kitchen, and a carhop station (Jackle and Sculle 55).
