How to Summarise a story

Welcome back friends,
So today I am going to share the strategy of summarizing a story. So let's start it.

The strategy of summarizing a story is called SWBST strategy. It is used to summarize a story in very short time and only covers important points.

S - Somebody
W - Wanted
B - But
S - So
T - Then

For example - 

The Thirsty Crow

It was a hot summer day. A thirsty crow flew into a village in search of water. The crow flew over the houses, fields, and trees. But he didn’t find any water. After a long time, Under one of the trees was a pot of water. He was happy that he found some water finally, he flew down to the tree and landed down to the ground. He quickly moved towards the pot and looked inside. There was very little water in the pot. The crow put his beak inside the pot but could not reach the water. The water level was too low, and the narrow opening curved its neck. The crow was disappointed. He was really thirsty and needed a drink of water badly. He could have given up and flown to another farm, looking for water. But he didn’t give up. Instead, he looked around and thought “What else can I do?” He saw that there were a lot of pebbles on the farm. And then he had an idea! He collected a pebble and put it into the pot. He collected many pebbles and put them all in the pot. As he added more and more stones, the water level came up to the top of the pot. The crow drank the water and flew back home happily.

S - Somebody

W - Wanted

B - But
But the level of water was too low.

S - So
So he dropped some pebbles inside the pot and water level rose up.

T - Then
Then he drank the water and happily flew away.
