Write a paragraph or two clearly explaining the point(s) the author is making in the passage, and connecting what the author says to the issues at hand.
Depending on the passage, this may require you to briefly explain what is at stake in the passage, define important terms, explain crucial distinctions, or summarize arguments.
Your goal in these answers is to show that (i) you know and understand the author’s claims, and (ii) are able to explain to your reader in simple, accurate, and concise language what he or she is saying, and why he or she is saying it.
Passage is provided below. Do not need to summarize the whole article but provide enough context to explain what the quote is trying to say
“… the physician’s omission can only bring about death on the condition that the patient’s disease will kill him in the absence of treatment. We may hold the physician morally responsible for the death, if we have morally judged such actions as wrongful omissions.” (Callahan, 359)
