Decide whether each item describes a feature that should or should not be part of a summary of an informational text, and classify it accordingly.
avoids interpretation or judgment
a-includes an introductory statement
b-includes the main ideas of original texts
c-provides interpretation or judgment
d-uses subjective voice

An informational text should not include a subjective voice or provide a point of view on what is being informed. Also, no personal opinions should be allowed. Therefore, options 4) “provides interpretation or judgment” and option 5) “uses subjective voice” are not part of an informational text.

As regards option 3) “includes the main ideas of original texts”, this should not be included in the summary of an informational text as we are referring to a summary and not to the development of main ideas from other texts.  

In this case options 1) “avoids interpretation or judgment” and option 2) “includes an introductory statement” are the correct options since an informative text should provide facts, dates and statistics of a given topic and also the summary of this type of texts should include an introductory statement of the topic discussed.
