What central idea is explicitly stated in the paragraph?
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Depends on what the paragraph has written. "Explicitly stated" means directly from the text. Usually, looking at the first and last sentence of a paragraph gives you the claim and conclusion sentence, so these will be most helpful in determining what the central idea is.

Read this excerpt from “The Black Cat” by Edgar Allan Poe.
Anestetic [448]

A. Readers gain insight into the narrator's belief that he is possessed by a demon.

This is the best option because the passage describes how he believes he has been possessed by a demon. From this passage, we don't actually know what happens once he is possessed. Option B says that it gives a reason for the narrator's behavior, but we don't know what that behavior is to make this a correct choice. Option C is wrong because first person invites us in to the narrator's mind. It doesn't not keep us at a distance. Option D is also not correct because we don't know anything about his treatment of a cat from this passage.
