Hi Mssue you helped me wonderfully before and I thank you. I would also like your help again.. My teacher says from previous papers that my summaries lack clarity/elaboration.. I was hoping maybe you could help me with that.. I have the 1st paragraph which I did also the 2nd paragraph which u helped with.. My teacher said this is what she's looking for: I am looking for a short summary followed by your analysis of why that topic is important to those living in the US. I want you to think about the big picture. What are the implications of the issue covered in the article? For example, if the Postal Service doesn't have money to deliver mail then how will people be affected?
Thanks in advance
(1st)The congress decided to undertake a short term 'funding measure',in order to avoid Government shutdown .They felt it would calm down the immediate crisis. A wise action on their behalf .The Senate will vote late Monday on its own version of the bill. However, Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) said that there is no threat of a government shutdown. The Senate bill offers disaster relief without cutting any spending elsewhere. It is not yet clear how the dispute will be resolved. So there has been no compromise from either side.
(2nd)The U.S. is in trouble. It owes more money than it has in decades. The Democrats want to raise some taxes to pay off part of the debt and continue to offer services. The Republicans want no raise in taxes and want to cut many programs to save money. The majority of the people seem to want jobs above all else. If the government shuts down, there will probably not be more jobs. The politicians can't agree on how to create more jobs.
These are not your paragraphs.
The second one is mine.
yes I thought i indicated that.. The 1st one I had to write a summary of that link.. the 2nd one i had to write about how it's important to the US
I'll be glad to read your summaries.
<< This is the Summary<<The congress decided to undertake a short term 'funding measure',in order to avoid Government shutdown .They felt it would calm down the immediate crisis. A wise action on their behalf .The Senate will vote late Monday on its own version of the bill. However, Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) said that there is no threat of a government shutdown.

If that's YOUR summary, it's fine.
I hope you understand it.
(1st) The first paragraph you provided talks about the Congress deciding to undertake a short term 'funding measure' in order to avoid a government shutdown. This action is seen as wise because it helps calm down the immediate crisis. However, there is still a dispute between the Senate and Speaker John Boehner, where no compromise has been reached yet. It is not yet clear how the dispute will be resolved.
To improve the clarity and elaboration of your summary, you can follow these steps:
1. Start with a brief summary of the main points: The Congress is taking a short term 'funding measure' to prevent a government shutdown. Speaker John Boehner states that there is no threat of a shutdown, but there is still a dispute between the Senate and him.
2. Analyze why this topic is important to those living in the US: The potential government shutdown has implications for the lives of people in the US. A government shutdown could affect various aspects of daily life, such as the delivery of services, the functioning of government agencies, and the economy. It can lead to job losses, delays in government services, and could have broader economic impacts.
3. Think about the big picture and the implications of the issue: In this case, a government shutdown could impact people's ability to access government services they rely on, such as healthcare, social security benefits, and more. It could lead to economic instability, uncertainty, and potential job losses. People may face difficulties in receiving essential services, delayed responses to emergencies, and potential disruptions to various sectors of the economy.
Overall, the importance of this topic for those living in the US lies in how it can affect their daily lives, livelihoods, and the overall stability of the country.
By following these steps, you can provide a clearer and more elaborate summary with the analysis of why the topic is important to those living in the US.
