differences between paraphrasing, summary, and quote
There are many differences between paraphrasing, summary and quotes. Paraphrasing is writing the ideas of the story in your own words and sometimes it can be the same or longer then the original story. A summary is writing the main points in your own words. A quote is a phrase from the original story.

How to play tennis
The basics of tennis are very simple. First you have to learn how to hit a forehand. Stand in a stance with your feet wide apart and turn your racket slightly to the left so that one of the faces are looking partly at the ground. As the ball flies towards you, turn sideways and hit the ball as you step forward and carry your swing through all the way to your back. Backhand is a bit harder and requires better concentration. when you hold your racket hold it so the head that was facing down is now facing partially up. When the ball flies toward you, look at the ball sideways and prepare to hit the ball. When you have contact with the ball carry the swing through till it touches your back. When playing a tennis game, you count the score by love, 15, 30, 40, and game. When you serve the ball you have to hit the ball diagonally across and has to land in the front rectangle on the other side.If the server's team wins the point then the point is 15 love. The server always has to have his score first. Tennis is very easy as long as you know how to play.

Voice
My Definition of Voice changes most every time. My definition right now about voice is that voice can determine the theme of the story sometimes. If the voice is sad the theme is trying to tell you that the lesson of the story is not a very happy one
