Move from summary to analysis
A summary reports the central message and the main supporting ideas. An argument answers a question by taking a position and testing it against evidence or examples. Avoid giving your opinion before showing that you have understood the document.
Use a simple structure: identify the issue, explain two main ideas, then answer a related question with reasons and limits. Useful transitions include “The main issue is…”, “This suggests that…”, “However…” and “A possible limitation is…”.
Practice
Question: Can automation improve accounting work? A balanced answer distinguishes repetitive tasks from professional judgement. It explains a benefit, identifies a risk and states the conditions needed for a useful implementation.

Automation can reduce the time spent on repetitive entries. However, incorrect settings may spread errors across many transactions. It is useful when trained staff check the outputs and retain responsibility for their decisions.
