I inferred you are referring to the Nigerian born writer Chimamanda Adichie's account found here (https://www.ted.com/talks/chimamanda_ngozi_adichie_the_danger_of_a_single_story?language=en).
<u>Explanation:</u>
Remember, in Adichie's talk she said referring to Fide, "the only thing my mother told me was that his family was very poor."
Later after she saw the basket fide's brother made she said "it had not occurred to me that anybody in his family could actually make something". This stereotyped view expressed in her words above complements the story of her college roommate’s stereotyped view of Adichie when she said, "she asked where I learned to speak English so well,....she had felt sorry for me even before she saw me. My roommate had a single of Africa; in this single-story, there was no possibility of Africans being similar to her in any way."
Indeed, her talk would have had a different impact without the story of Fide and his family, considering the fact that this was a real-life story so it made the best impact.

Answer:
The description that best defines the central idea of an information text is:
B. the main point the author is trying to make.
Explanation:
The central idea of a text, and that includes information texts as well, is the main point the author is trying to convey, that is, the information he wants people to understand and remember. To support that main idea, to make it understandable, or even to prove it right, the author must use examples, evidence, details, and analysis.
Therefore, options A, C, and D consist of support to the central idea, while option B defines it.
