summarizing is important because it makes the information easier to understand. for example, let’s say the topic was why we invaded sicily during wwii. i could go into great detail about each of the operations and what their purpose was, going way back in history to find a bunch or causes, picking through every decision made at every level of the army or i could summarize and say we invaded sicily since we weren’t ready to invade germany, and we diverted german troops from russia. what could have been a whole paragraph on the subject was just narrowed down to a sentence. hope that helps :D
