sammarising and synthesising

we have been summerising 3 texts about recovering from natural disasters like stunamis and earthquakes we had to get 12 keywords from all of the texts then we hat to tell the reader of what the story was about by using the twelve keywords. we have been synthesising about the same 3 texts but instead we had to fill boxes that have questions with asking questions questions like for example what whas the problem in the text then we had to fill the box in using information from the text
