Answer 2

Answer:

a restatement of the main points of an argument, case, etc.

Explanation:

It's basically listing down the main points (in simpler words)

For example, lets make a scenario here:

Your teacher just finished explaining a chapter of  the novel you're reading in school, He or she calls a student and asks them to "sum up" the chapter he/she explained

So the teacher wants the student to list down the main point of the chapter.

Example in a sentence:

"It is hard to make progress without the summing-up by the judge in such a case"

"I have made a short summing-up speech because there have been so many speakers this evening"

Hope it helps :)
