A source-based response needs accurate ideas reshaped for the new purpose and audience. Select relevant material, reorganise it and express it in a suitable voice. Do not copy large stretches or carry over the original writer’s assumptions automatically. Keep essential factual meaning while changing presentation.
The model “A technical description becomes a clear guide for younger pupils.” illustrates the method in a specific context. Compare it with “A set of opinions becomes a reasoned speech for parents.”. The useful question is how the change in wording affects meaning, emphasis or the relationship with the reader. A strong response connects a precise language choice to its purpose; naming a feature alone is insufficient. Explain the connection in ordinary language before adding a technical term. When reviewing your own response, remove unsupported claims and check that every detail serves the task you have been given.
