Identify the reason of 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 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: 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 itsonly 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.
