What is the distinction between scene and summary?

  1. A scene takes place in the present while a summary tells a condensed version of what happened in the past.

  2. A scene takes place in the past while a summary tells a condensed version of what happened in the present.

  3. A scene is a condensed version of what happened in the past while a summary tells a complete version of what happened in the present.

  4. A scene is a complete version of what happened in the past while a summary tells a condensed version of what happened in the present.

The correct answer is: A scene is a complete version of what happened in the past while a summary tells a condensed version of what happened in the present.

A This is incorrect because a scene can take place in the past or the present, but it always shows a complete version of what happened. B: This is incorrect because a scene can take place in the past or the present, but it always shows a complete version of what happened. C: This is incorrect because a summary is a condensed version of what happened, not a complete version. Option D is the correct answer because a scene is a complete version of what happened in the past, while a summary gives a condensed version of what happened in the present. This means that a scene includes more details and descriptions while a summary gives a brief overview.
