I won’t do your HW for you, but I’ll tell you how to do it quickly…

A summary is a short synopsis of what the article means. In other words, what was the point? What was the big idea? Why was it written? Once you figure that out, all you have to do is state that in a topic sentence and give one or two good supporting details.

How do you do that? Here’s a tip: the main idea of a piece of writing is usally found in one of two places- the first or last sentence.

There’s something to start with… good luck!
