Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The summary effectively captures the main idea (a worthy person offers a refinement - about children aged 12 - 14 for a certain purpose as the wealthy have destroyed deer). But it does not use a quotation correctly. The original text has "destroyed their deer" but the summary uses "depleted their deer supply" which is an incorrect quotation usage.

Answer:

It effectively paraphrases the excerpt but does not correctly use a quotation.
