In order to begin your Summarizing and Paraphrasing Essay, read Dr. Robert Lustig’s blog post “Rules of Reduction” regarding the consumption of processed food.
For this assignment, you will practice summarizing and paraphrasing material that you will later revisit in your documented essays and your research paper. Please use the ENG 102 M1 Template to demonstrate the following:
Using your own words, summarize the ENTIRE blog post in two developed paragraphs. Introduce Lustig’s post in your opening sentence before summarizing the entire piece. For example, “In his blog post “Rules of Reduction,” Dr. Lustig believes…”. Keep in mind, there are several verbs available for introducing summaries and you can select whichever verb(s) you deem appropriate. Here is a list of verbs you can select in your two paragraph summary:
Verbs for Making a Claim: argue, insist, observe, believe, claim, report, emphasize, suggest
Verbs for Expressing Agreement: acknowledge, endorse, admire, extol, agree, praise, corroborate, support
Verbs for Questioning or Disagreeing: complain, disavow, complicate, question, contend, refute, contradict, reject, deny, renounce
Verbs for Making Recommendations: advocate, implore, call for, plead, demand, recommend, encourage, urge, exhort, warn
In addition, do not include any quotations from Lustig’s piece in your two paragraph summary, and do not include your opinion of the issues raised in the post.
Finally, for the last part of your summarizing and paraphrasing essay, using your own words, paraphrase ONE of the paragraphs (your choice) within the blog post. Again, do not include any quotations or your opinion of the issues raised in the post.
