Paraphrase/Summary: A paraphrase takes a short section of text and restates the ideas in different words. A

• Shame is a feeling that one is somehow ruined or bad as a person (Goldberg, 1991, p. 191).
The following example briefly summarizes the main ideas of two separate texts. Each text is cited after the
