Question

Read the informational text about the process of becoming a knight. Then, write a two- to three-sentence objective summary of this text in the space provided.
Passage
Medieval culture has never fully disappeared from popular culture. Judging by the large number of medieval-themed books and movies, it's more popular than ever. Much like today, the characters in these medieval works all had clearly defined jobs or roles to play. Like today's occupations, these roles were all part of a process of career growth. For example, knights only became knights after a long, three-step process.

If, at the age of seven, a boy displayed very good manners, smarts, and courage, his parents might decide they wanted him to become a knight. He would spend the next seven years as a page, performing simple duties such as helping knights with their horses and armor.

After completing training as a page at around age 14, the boy would become a squire. A squire took on more responsibility and received more hands-on instruction in fighting and battle strategy. He would sometimes ride into battle with a knight and assist him. In some cases, the squire would even be required to fight in the knight's place if the knight was injured.

At the age of 21, the squire was eligible to become a knight. First, he had to prove himself worthy by showing great bravery, wisdom, and devotion. If worthy, he would be knighted in a ceremony where he vowed to protect his kingdom.

Knights perform very different tasks from doctors, teachers, or professional athletes, but in each of these careers there is a long process with clearly defined steps for moving up. Perhaps this is one of the reasons medieval culture has always fascinated us — it has a sense of order that never went out of style.

Answer 1

The above question wants to analyze your reading and writing ability through a summary written by you. In that case, it's not right for me to write this summary for you, but I'll show you how to write one.

A summary is a text that presents the most important parts of another text, in a short, objective, and direct way.

In this case, to write your summary, you must:

• Read the entire text to which the question refers.
• Identify the most important parts, which are responsible for conveying the meaning of the text to the reader.
• Rewrite these parts, adapting them and forming a cohesive but direct text.

Don't forget to use your own words, but keep the meaning of the original text to avoid plagiarism.
