Sometimes it is easier to understand the information contained in a text by summarizing the key points in the form of a simple table. The format of the table depends on the type of information in which you are interested. The table could take the form of a chronological chart if the text has a time-related structure; or you could use a cause-and-effect chart, a flow chart, etc. In this text, if you were particularly interested in extracting all the information regarding the examples of superstitions mentioned, your table could be designed like the one below.
