The correct answers are A. Minor details from the text and C. The summary writer's opinions.
The correct answers are C. The summary writer's opinions and D. Important events in the text.
When writing a summary of a text, it is important to exclude the summary writer's opinions because a summary should be an objective and unbiased representation of the original text. Including personal opinions would introduce subjectivity and potentially mislead the reader.
Additionally, while it is important to capture the central idea of the text in a summary, it is not necessary to include every minor detail or important event. Summaries should focus on the main points, key arguments, or relevant examples that support the central idea. Including too many minor details or events can make the summary lengthy and less concise.
