Summary " Cross Island" Draft #1


In the article “Nature Group seeks more information on the impact of Cross Island Line Site Investigations” Neo (2018) stated that nature lovers are encouraging the public to voice out their concerns towards the Land Transport Authority (LTA) regarding the drilling works for the future Cross Island MRT line. The public is anticipating whether LTA would release the whole process of monitoring program as "endangered" animals were spotted after site investigation was completed. They also doubt that LTA did a great job in the environmental impact assessment as the result was “mainly moderate” and was unwilling to provide comment nor evidence when asked. Nature lovers urge LTA to “provide assurance” and re-emphasize that monitoring program should continue even if the site investigation ends. They also highlighted that the monitoring methods and data are the keys to clear the doubts within the public as the information available was insufficient.

  1. Good day Mikaela,

    1) Citation are well established such as "mainly moderate” and “provide assurance”.

    2) "regarding the drilling works for the future Cross Island MRT line.", you mentioned drilling works in the summary. However in the summary, there is no supporting evidence.

    3)"They also doubt that LTA did a great job in the environmental...." in this sentence, "they" are referring to who?

    4)If you are using the same words such as "endangered animals", you could actually quote it or paraphrased it.

    Good job in summarizing the article.

    Best regards,

    Calvin & Ray
