Answer 1

In a summary of a text, the following kinds of information should be excluded:

1. **the summary writer's own words** - A summary should reflect the original text's main ideas without the writer's personal wording.

2. **the summary writer's opinions** - A summary should be objective and should not include the writer's own interpretations or opinions.

So the correct answers are the summary writer's own words and the summary writer's opinions.
