Summarizing

Explanation:

A summary is a comprehensive, usually brief, overview of the main points of a written or spoken text.

Paraphrasing is the process in which we express something that's already been stated by using different words, usually to achieve a better understanding.

Quoting refers to the repetition of something that has already been said.
