Why did Revkin send his blog to several biologists and scholars? - "In Defense of Everglade Pythons"

English
1 answer:
Nikitich [7]1 year ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Revkin said he thinks several problems hinder accurate scientific reporting. He discussed the incompatibility of news and science, as well as the pressure on journalists to report new discoveries or exaggerate the importance of findings, or risk having their articles cut. He said he knows the limits of news reporting firsthand — he said he typically had only four hours and 500 words in which to summarize an idea or phenomenon.

He said he thinks a general lack of public knowledge about science — especially in the fields of technology and health — exacerbates some of the media’s inaccuracies that result from the rush to report things before other news outlets.

What should be included in a summary
Papessa [141]
A summary should include key points from what you have read or learned. Basically meaning that you should include the main idea, basic ideas, and other small points as well. When making a summary there is no need to include ALL of the original piece but just key points as explained before. So to make it easier I will write everything down into a list.

Include a thesis (explain what the text was trying to achieve)
Include the topic sentence
Include key points (main points and phrases)
Include major supporting points
Include explanations
Include your a concluding sentence as well
Include any extra information that you feel should be added.

This should be able to help you write a summary. If you feel that there is something missing you can always google it but anyways these points should give you an idea as to what needs to be in a summary.

Hope this helps!
