I would say the answer is D. One should never bet on anything.

But this isn't any kind of a moral to the story. This story wasn't intended to sound didactic, or to judge anyone. It is a humorous account of a man who tricks another man by wasting his time on a story about a third man who was tricked. So, it is a story about unreliability and relativity of stories and people's accounts in general. The narrator came to inquire Simon Wheeler about Leonidas Smiley, but Wheeler, having no information about him (or not being willing to give it away), takes the opportunity to talk about another Smiley, a man who liked to gamble.

Which of the following flaws can be found in this summary of the excerpt?
MariettaO [177]

We can actually deduce here the flaw that can be found in this summary of the excerpt is: The summary gives the reader’s personal opinion.

<h3>What is summary?</h3>

Summary refers to a brief line of sentences that is written in order to point out some main points of a main passage or text. It's seen when writing conclusion.

The excerpt that completes the question is:

Read the excerpt from "Opening Ceremonies of the New York and Brooklyn Bridge" by Hon. Seth Low, Mayor of the City of Brooklyn. Brooklyn becomes available, henceforth, as a place of residence to thousands, to whom the ability to reach their places of business without interruption from fog and ice is of paramount importance. To all Brooklyn's present citizens a distinct boon is given. The certainty of communication with New York afforded by the Bridge is the fundamental benefit it confers. Read the following summary of the excerpt. It is great that the Brooklyn Bridge finally created new business opportunities by allowing the citizens of Brooklyn to easily commute to Manhattan.

Thus, we see here that flaw in this summary is that it actually gives the reader's personal opinion.
