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!

"My mother, my sister, and my friend were all in attendance. I said hello to her."

Andru [333]

B) "her" means the friend.

Explanation:

Both option B and C are correct as they are the same.

The line means that the friend was in the attendance along with the mother and the sister of the narrator. This can be deduced because in the sentence the friend is mentioned separately from the family to differentiate her from them.

So when hello is said to a woman, who could be either of the three it can be deduced that it is the friend being talked about as she was differentiated from the others in the previous sentence.
