Answer:
The given passage is taken from "Billy Bud, Sailor" written by Herman Melville.
Explanation:
The text appears in Chapter 13 of the novel.
Billy Bud is a sailor and the protagonist of the novel.
The narrator in this text is referring to Claggart's passions. The narrator states that passions can bring a person to his lowest point and it does not require 'palatial stage' to be provoked. In this passage, Claggart had started to resent Billy.
Claggart is the exact opposite character of Billy. Billy, on the one hand, is innocent, Claggart on the other is evil and wicked.
Answer:
3. The most important idea.
Explanation:
The central idea of any passage or text is the most important point or topic that the passage or text is talking about. It states the purpose of the whole text or passage.
The central idea is not the same as the main topic. The main topic is the topic that the text but the central idea is the main idea of what the text or passage or paragraph is about.
For instance, in a passage about birds, the main topic is "birds" but the central idea can be about how birds are, or how they help the environment, or how they migrate from one place to another, depending on the passage.
Thus, the correct answer is option 3.
