Once you can find the topic, you are ready to find the main idea. The main idea is the point of the paragraph. It is the most important thought about the topic.

Read the passage from Animal Farm.
just olya [345]

George Orwell wrote Animal Farm as an allegory about the evils of the Russian Revolution. The universal message of George Orwell's "Animal Farm" is that all violent revolutions which aim to and initially succeed in overthrowing repressive totalitarian regimes, after a brief idealistic period rapidly deteriorate into totalitarian and repressive  

regimes themselves. There are three specific tactics of propaganda devices which are fear, deceit, and isolationism. According to this passage, the best option that highlights the allegory for totalitarian propaganda is the fourth option: “<em>The animals do not complain about pigs in power breaking rules</em>.”

What happened to Chuck Bell? Why?
TEA [102]

Answer:

Dad is a former superstar basketball player who now works as a stay-at-home dad. He was a phenom in college, played exceptionally well in the Olympics, and led his European League team to victory as a rookie. He was invited to try out for the LA Lakers. However, he declined the opportunity because, in order to keep playing basketball, he would have been required to have knee surgery. Mr. Bell is deathly afraid of doctors. Despite not trying out for the Lakers, he’s semi-famous, particularly amongst the basketball aficionados who pester him for autographs.

Why aren't harrison's parents more emotionally impacted by the death of their son?
Sauron [17]
In Vonnegut's Harrison Bergeron, Harrison's parents are incapable of being emotionally impacted by their son's death due to their numerous handicaps.

Because they are so handicapped, they are unable to concentrate or focus on something for more than a moment. Their handicaps prevent them from thinking clearly or remembering details. As a result, although they initially feel sad, they quickly forget what happened and continue watching television.

Read this passage from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, or NOAA. What is the sentence an example of? In gene
frez [133]

The answer is: Valid generalization.

A valid generalization is based on the observation of several situations and is concordant with facts in every case. In the example sentence, the evidence about the growth of massive corals has been determined after extensive study and research.

The rest of the options are incorrect because a biased statement has an unfair tendency or prejudice, an opinion is a judgement not based on knowledge or facts, and a hasty generalization is done with excessive speed.
