Question

2) Read the passage below about graffiti and then answer the questions.

people don't understand what graffiti represents, and how inspiring it can be.
When people used to say art, most of us thought of a posh, rich person standing in a gallery
disappearing, Art can be created from anything, it can be created
into different forms that
both intrigue and stimulate our senses.
Graffiti is urban street art which people associate with gangs and their territories,
vandalism and violence. It gives the impression that the area is dangerous, but this is because
One style of graffiti is called bombing. This is when someone writes on a wall in a style
that is their own, whether it be in fancy lettering, colours, or both. It is a way for them to
express themselves, what they think art is and what art means to them. Some people have
misguided attitudes towards this form of art, so it is complained about by communities
and made illegal. Youths then feel that the older generation is dictating what art should be,
instead of letting them have the freedom to use public spaces to convey their own views and
create clever and pleasing images.

a) Write a sentence to summarise the positive aspects of street art.​

Street art is a good way for artists to express themselves and enrich the streets with their images.

Step-by-step explanation:

A summary is a shortened version of a piece of writing, e.g. a paragraph, article, poem, chapter, novel, etc. It should contain the text's main ideas (the main points the author is making) and only the most important details.

Here, we aren't supposed to write the summary of the entire passage. We need to find certain information and then summarize only that information. The passage tells about graffiti and how people treat this form of art. The information we're looking for are the positive aspects of street art. It can be summarized in the following sentence:

• Street art is a good way for artists to express themselves and enrich the streets with their images.
