1. A good summary should include the main ideas or key points of the original text. It should be concise and provide an overview of the content. A summary should also be unbiased, meaning it should present the information objectively without adding personal opinions or interpretations.

2. One thing that a summary should not include is unnecessary details or examples. Since a summary aims to provide a condensed version of the original text, including excessive details can make it lengthy and lose its purpose. Additionally, including personal thoughts or opinions can make the summary subjective, which is not the objective of summarizing a text.

I apologize for the misunderstanding, but could you please clarify what you mean by "short"? Are you referring to the desired length of the responses or do you have a specific question related to summary writing?

In that case, I can provide clear and concise responses to your questions:

1. A good summary should include the main ideas or key points of the original text. It should be concise, providing a brief overview of the content without unnecessary details. Additionally, a good summary should be objective, presenting the information without personal opinions or interpretations.

2. A summary should not include personal opinions or interpretations. This is because the purpose of a summary is to provide an objective overview of the original text, without introducing bias or subjectivity into the summary. Including personal thoughts or opinions can undermine the purpose of summarizing and can lead to inaccuracies or misrepresentations of the original content.
