Answer:

Mostly I spent my weekend by pursuing my passion for writing and painting, and spending my time with family at home.

Explanation:

Weekend is something which everyone look forward to. School kids would count days and gets excited on Friday as they will not have to go to school the next morning. For them, weekend means waking up late in the morning, playing, and enjoying.

But for me, I really look forward to weekend, after spending five days at work. I wake up early on weekend as well, to meditate and spend sometime to talk to God. Then I spend morning time helping my mother in household chores, helping her in preparing breakfast, and have conversation with my family while having breakfast. After all the work gets done, I would read books, and then write a blog about any concerned topic that would come to my mind. In evening I usually spend some time for my passion, which is painting. Then watch TV with family while having dinner.

Whats the unique relationship between textual evidence and the main idea? a. There's no relationship between textual evidence an
Svetllana [295]

The correct answer is C. The evidence textual offers the information to build the main idea. It also means that they are connected but they are different. The main idea has no sense without textual evidence. So, The main idea became the main idea because of the lack of textual evidence or the lack of pieces of information for that.
