Answer:
Summarizing a text, or distilling its essential concepts into a paragraph or two, is a useful study tool as well as good writing practice. A summary has two aims: (1) to reproduce the overarching ideas in a text, identifying the general concepts that run through the entire piece, and (2) to express these overarching ideas using precise, specific language. When you summarize, you cannot rely on the language the author has used to develop his or her points, and you must find a way to give an overview of these points without your own sentences becoming too general. You must also make decisions about which concepts to leave in and which to omit, taking into consideration your purposes in summarizing and also your view of what is important in this text. Here are some methods for summarizing:First, prior to skimming, use some of the previewing techniques.

Summarization is the process of automatically condensing and rewriting a large chunk of text in order to produce a short, concise summary. Some of the summarizing techniques are as follows:
- Selection: One of the most important summarization techniques is selection. It is critical to choose the main idea, keywords and phrases, specialized terms, and interpretations presented in the original resource. These aspects must be taken into account when writing these summaries. It is an important summarization technique because it allows for the inclusion of all major ideas in the summary.
- Rejection: A key summarization technique is a rejection. It is the process of removing redundant data. As previously stated, try to avoid repeating examples, illustrations, anecdotes, redundant expressions, tables, and statistical data. Basically, rejection aids in the preparation of a perfect summary.
- Substitution: It is also a useful summarization technique. It essentially includes synthesis. It is a method of combining multiple sentences into a single sentence.
Hence these are some summarizing techniques that are used.
