Best Answer

Every paragraph in an academic paper or essay must have one driving point or idea behind it. A summary of any one paragraph should thus be able to get at the main point of what the author is trying to say. The summary would be too broad if it tried to express the author's main idea in a roundabout or vague way--that is, in a statement that could describe any number of ideas.
