Answer:

Summarize the text is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The main idea in a text is the most important one, so the text was written around it. Summarize means to go back to the text and take the main ideas and put them together in a short paragraph. By doing so, you could realize what is important and what isn't. Due to this, it is the correct answer.

Main Idea

The first place to start is with your main idea. The main idea is the key concept being expressed or examined. Putting this in our movie frame of reference, the main idea would be the broad context on what the movie is about, or the genre in which the movie will be viewed. Is it a romantic comedy about high school sweethearts? Maybe it's a historical drama about the Battle of Waterloo or the sinking of the Titanic. The main idea is the overall gist of what the piece will be dealing with as a whole.

Thesis Statements

Okay, so now that we have the main idea, we need to prepare ourselves to clearly explain it to our audience, the reader. What we need is a thesis statement! A thesis statement is a one- or two-sentence condensation of your argument or analysis that will follow in your writing. The thesis statement is our narrowing of our overall main idea.

Moving along with our movie idea, let's say our main idea is a romantic comedy about two high school sweethearts. While that helps narrow things a bit from the entire genre of romantic comedy, it doesn't really help give us the detail we need to truly understand what is unique about our movie. However, I can add the thesis statement

“It could not be worse,” Passini said respectfully. “There is nothing worse than war.”
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

are still loaded with meaning.

Explanation:

Hemingway's simple sentences are very meaningful. They clearly show the characters' opinions on a major theme of war. Passini tries to prove that war is the worst thing that can happen to people. The narrator does not agree because to him, defeat is worse as it means losing 'your home, your family'.

Although the characters express their ideas in short sentences, they convey their message in a powerful way and sound convincing to the reader because both Passini and the narrator make convincing arguments. Indeed, Hemingway's seemingly simple prose is loaded with meaning.

To a certain extent, parallelism helps to reinforce the message of these short sentences:

"They come after you. They take your home. They take your sisters."  That's parallelism at its best.

Responding to this, Passini also uses repetition of words and structures: "Let everybody defend his home. Let them keep their sisters in the house.”

All these examples show how 'little' words can make a big difference.
