Importance of Summarizing:
1. Condenses Information: Summarizing helps condense a large amount of information
into a concise and coherent form, making it easier to grasp and understand the main
ideas quickly.
2. Focuses on Key Points: Summarizing allows readers to identify and focus on the
most important and relevant aspects of a text, filtering out unnecessary details and
providing a clear overview.
4. Saves Time and Effort: Summarizing allows readers to save time and effort by quickly
extracting the essential information without having to read the entire text.
5. Facilitates Retention and Recall: Summarizing aids in memory retention and recall by
capturing the key concepts and main arguments of a text, making it easier to review and
remember the information later.
