Rules for writers, Chapter 46

Chapter 46 was about understanding your text and what your reading about. The chapter helped me understand the understanding of the text. Away to summarize a text you must find the thesis which is the main idea . Then you should divide the text into small pieces since a summary is short, to make summarizing easyer. To outline a text you should put the authors thesis and the key points in your own words. This chapter is very helpfully with braking down a text to understand it better.This chapter can help me when I read future reading and it will help me break things down. Also knowing who the writing is for like knowing the audince to who the paper is for and knowing how to read the text in the future.
