Q26. What do you understand by the term 'Summary'? (3 marks)

A summary is a way of expressing the main ideas of a text passage through reported speech. A successful summary is not an exposition of the writer's own opinions, but a refining of the important points in an original text. Three points should be kept in mind: (1) Summaries are shorter than original texts, (2) They contain the main ideas of a text, and (3) They are in reported speech.

Q27. Differentiate between 'Direct Speech' and 'Indirect Speech'? Give examples too. (5 marks)

Direct speech is quoted speech that is presented without modification, as it might have been spoken by the original speaker. Saying exactly what someone has said is called direct speech

For example: She said, " Today's lesson is on presentations."

“Patrick Henry said, ‘Give me liberty or give me death’.”

HE SAID, “I was going TO SCHOOL EVERY DAY.”

' Indirect Speech' Indirect speech (sometimes called reported speech), doesn't use quotation marks to enclose what the person said and it doesn't have to be word for word. When reporting speech the tense usually changes.
