Answer 1

The three elements that paraphrases and summaries have in common are:

A. You must keep the same meaning as the original text. E. You must put the author’s original text in your own words.

Both paraphrasing and summarizing require maintaining the original meaning of the text while rephrasing it. It's also important to note that while summaries generally condense information, the emphasis on wording is consistent in both processes. However, options B, C, and D are not requirements for both paraphrasing and summarizing.
