Question: Read the excerpt from Hidden Figures. Their path to advancement might look less like a straight line and more like some of the pressure distributions and orbits they plotted, but they were determined to take a seat at the table. First, however, they had to get over the high hurdle of low expectations. Read Amara’s paraphrase of the excerpt. Their path to increased opportunities was more like one of the complicated charts they created than a linear path, but the priority was the challenging task of changing minds about their skills and abilities Which paraphrasing mistake does Amara make? She leaves out important ideas from the original text. She uses wording that is too close to the original text. She adds unnecessary information. She misrepresents the author’s ideas.
Amara's paraphrase appears to accurately capture the essence and key themes of the original text and does not introduce any new information that seems unnecessary. The wording is different enough to avoid plagiarism. This leaves us with whether any important ideas are left out or whether the author's ideas are misrepresented. By examining closely: 1. The concept of their path being more like complicated charts rather than a straight line is maintained. 2. The notion that they had to change minds about their abilities is also kept intact. Given this, the most fitting critique might be about nuances: - Though she does touch on overcoming low expectations in her paraphrase, she does not explicitly mention the "high hurdle" and "taking a seat at the table." Therefore, **She leaves out important ideas from the original text** seems like the most accurate choice.
