Identify the reason for the unacceptable paraphrase in the 2nd paragraph. 1st Para: Here’s the original text, from page 1 of Lizzie Borden:
A Case Book of Family and Crime in the 1890s by Joyce Williams The koala bear of Australia is a living “Teddy Bear.” Its thick coat of gray fur is just as soft as the beloved toy. The koala has a large head, big ears, and small, dark eyes that look at you without expression. Its nose, as black as patent leather, seems too big for the rest of its face. The koala is a gentle little animal. It is almost defenseless. Only its color protects it from enemies. The koala makes no nest. It just sits in the forked branches of a tree. Unlike a bird, it cannot balance itself with its tail—because it has no tail. It likes gum trees the best because it loves entirely on the leaves of the tree. Sometimes the supply of its special diet is used up. The koala, rather than seek food elsewhere, will stay in its own area and starve to death.

2nd Para: Here’s an acceptable paraphrase.
The koala bear lives in Australia. It is really a “Teddy Bear” that is alive. It has thick gray fur that feels as soft as that of the toy bear. The koala has special features: a big head, large ears, and little, dark eyes without expression. As black as shiny leather, the koala’s nose appears to be too large for his face. A gentle small animal, the koala has only one way to defend itself from its enemies. Its color is its only protection. Making no nest, the koala just sits where branches fork in a tree. Without a tail, the koala cannot keep itself balanced like a bird. The koala eats only the leaves of gum trees which it likes best. If all of its special food is eaten, the koala will not look for food outside its own area. It will remain where it is and die of starvation.
