Which of these is an element of both paraphrasing and summarizing?
Rudiy27

Seems to me that the second option looks as if it were correct. While paraphrasing and summarizing, you are trying to shorten up an original piece of writing. Giving a well developed descriptions of main ideas isn't something to look for in paraphrasing, so that's why the first option is incorrect. In addition, restating basically everything from a text is not called paraphrasing nor summarizing, and that is why I'd rather classify it as copying.

Should you be pleased to be called a maverick?
ozzi

It depends on what your goal is.

A maverick is an unorthodox individual who lives fairly independently.

The negative connotation associated with being a maverick is that you don't get along with groups but are usually fairly successful.

So, if you are okay being independent and unorthodox, great. If you are bothered by the connotation that you don't get along well with groups, then you likely are not okay with it.
