35. 35 ParaphraseSummarizeQuote - To retain ideas in the original passage but put them in your own words. - To condense a long detail passage. - To use the exact words of the original.

36. 36 1. PARAPHRASING Involve restating the ideas from a passage in your own words Paraphrased text is usually the same length as the original

37. Example 37 Source It has long been known that Cairo is the most populous city on earth, but no-one knew exactly how populous it was until last month. – (Chan Kian Hwa, 2010) Paraphrase Although Cairo according to Chan Kian Hwa (2010) has been the world's most heavily populated city for many years, the precise population was not known until four weeks ago.

38. The following stages may be useful: 1.Read and understand the text. 2.Make a list of the main ideas. – Find the important ideas - the important words/phrases. In some way mark them - write them down, underline or highlight them. – Find alternative words/synonyms for these words/phrases - do not change specialised vocabulary and common words. 38

39. 3.Change the structure of the text. – Identify the meaning relationships between the words/ideas - e.g. cause/effect, generalisation, contrast. – Express these relationships in a different way. – Change the grammar of the text: change nouns to verbs, adjectives to adverbs, etc., break up long sentences, combine short sentences. 4.Rewrite the main ideas in complete sentences. Combine your notes into a piece of continuous writing. 39

40. 5.Check your work. –Make sure the meaning is the same. –Make sure the length is the same. –Make sure the style is your own. –Remember to acknowledge other people's work. 40

41. 41 METHODS OF PARAPHRASING 1.Look away from the source; then write. – Read the text you want to paraphrase several times—until you feel that you understand it and can use your own words to restate it. Then, look away from the original and rewrite the text in your own words. OR 2.Take notes. – Take notes; set the notes aside; then paraphrase from the notes.

42. 42 If it still doesn’t work? This may mean that you don’t understand the passage completely. Then, you have to move to the next strategy: While looking at the source, first change (a) the structure, then (b) the words.

43. 43 (a) Change the structure Begin by starting at a different place in the passage, basing your choice on the focus of your paper. This will lead naturally to some changes in wording. Focusing on specific people rather than abstractions will make your paraphrase more readable. You might also break up long sentences, combine short ones, expand phrases for clarity, or shorten them for conciseness.

44. 44 (b) Change the words Use synonyms or a phrase that expresses the same meaning. Leave shared language unchanged. – Some Examples of Shared Language You Don’t Need to Change: Conventional designations: e.g., physician’s assistant, chronic low-back pain Preferred bias-free language: e.g., persons with disabilities Technical terms and phrases of a discipline or genre: e.g., reduplication, cognitive domain, material culture, sexual harassment

48. In American society, Introverts are outnumbered about three to one. As a result, they must develop extra coping skills early in life because there will be an inordinate amount of pressure on them to “shape up,” to act like the rest of the world. The Introvert is pressured daily, almost from the moment of awakening, to respond and conform to the outer world. Classroom teachers unwittingly pressure Introverted students by announcing that “One-third of your grade will be based on classroom participation.” From Otto Kroeger and Janet M. Thuesen, Type Talk: The 16 Personality Types that Determine How We Live, Love and Work. New York: Dell Publishing, 1989. 48

49. Possible Paraphrase There are many more extroverts than introverts in America. This puts a lot of pressure on introverts to fit in and be like everybody else. Even in school, teachers add to this pressure by making class participation part of the student's grade. Consequently, introverts have to acquire additional skills to deal with these pressures. 49

50. 50 Students frequently overuse direct quotation in taking notes, and as a result they overuse quotations in the final research paper. Probably only about 10 percent of the final manuscript should appear as directly quoted matter. Therefore, students should strive to limit the amount of exact transcribing of source materials while taking notes. Lester, James D. Writing Research Papers. 2nd ed. (1976): 46-47. In research papers students often quote excessively, failling to keep quoted material down to a desirable level. Since the problem usually originates during note-taking, it is essential to minimize the material recorded verbatim in order to adhere to maximum of ten percent of directly quoted materials.

54. Distinguish between main and subsidiary information. Delete most details and examples, unimportant information, anecdotes, examples, illustrations, data etc. Simplify the text.

People whose professional activity lies in the field of politics are not, on the whole, conspicuous for their respect for factual accuracy.

Tea, whether of the China or Indian variety, is well known to be high on the list of those beverages which are most frequently drunk by the inhabitants of the British Isles.

56. 56 3. DIRECT QUOTATION Authors’ exact words are copied directly from original sources It is preferred when citing powerful phrases or interpreting literary works like poems or plays Sources must be properly cited
