Explanation:

When writing a summary, we should include all the most important facts, mentioning side information only if it is of the matter for the subject/question. The reader of the summary should be notified by reading what is the main point of the text, so going into detail is not advisable for a summary.

In the given summaries, only the first one covers what really matters: when the event took place, who was responsible, what was the target of the accident, how many people perished, what was damaged in a material sense.  

In three other potential summaries, perished people were not even mentioned, and losing those people were the worst side of this accident.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
