Answer :

Evaluation reflects the writer's personal opinion.

Explanation:
- Evaluation involves the writer's judgment or assessment of a subject based on their own criteria and perspective.
- It is not purely factual but rather subjective in nature, influenced by the writer's experiences, beliefs, and values.
- Through evaluation, the writer expresses their viewpoint on the quality, significance, or effectiveness of the subject being evaluated.
- Unlike a detailed summary (option D), which focuses on recounting the content of a text without judgment, evaluation goes beyond summarization to provide a critical assessment.
