To objectively summarize a text, you can follow these strategies in this order:

  1. Read the text thoroughly: Understand the main ideas and arguments presented.
  2. Identify key points: Highlight or note the central themes, facts, and ideas that are essential to the argument.
  3. Remove unnecessary details: Exclude examples, anecdotes, and any other information that doesn’t contribute to the core message.
  4. Paraphrase the main ideas: Rewrite the key points in your own words, ensuring clarity and brevity.
  5. Check for accuracy and objectivity: Ensure that your summary is unbiased and accurately reflects the original text’s message without inserting personal opinions.

This order provides a structured approach to summarizing effectively and objectively.
