A paraphrase is similar to a summay since they both require other writers to restate the information in their own words.

Both a paraphrase and a summary are also similar in the fact that they do not distort the meaning of the original passage.

However, they have certain differences, for instance:

A summary is much shorter than the original passage, while a paraphrase is roughly the same length, and even sometimes a bit longer, than the original passage.

A summary can be selective, but a paraphrase is specific and should not be selective.  Since a paraphrase normally deals with a very specific portion of a text, the paraphrase should include all the elements of that portion.

'Mid groves and copses.

Explanation:

Writing style refers to the particular elements, such as word choice, syntax, voice, tone, sentence structure, which gives a personal and identifiable identity to the work of an author.
