A summary has several important features:
1)      it’s short
2)      It talks about the main idea
3)      It provides important information (e.g. examples) that make the main idea easy to understand
4)      It excludes unnecessary information
5)      It uses your own words, though some key words from the original story are acceptable
6)      A summary should start by referring to  the original  source and giving the main idea and focus.
