What is the difference between summarizing and paraphrasing? summarizing is shorter than paraphrasing and includes only the most important details. summarizing puts the text in the writer’s words, while paraphrasing uses the original text. paraphrasing is shorter than summarizing, and paraphrasing includes only the main idea. (not this one) paraphrasing puts only the main idea in the writer’s words, while summarizing includes key details.

The right answer is "Summarizing is shorter than paraphrasing and includes only the most important details."

To paraphrase is to reproduce an original text, through its words, without altering its meaning, that is, keeping the original ideas. Paraphrase is not synonymous with summary. While the abstract privileges the synthesis, the paraphrase proposes to translate the original text, and may even be larger or smaller than the paraphrased text.
