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.

Maldives, in full Republic of Maldives, also called Maldive Islands, independent island country in the north-central Indian Ocean. It consists of a chain of about 1,200 small coral islands and sandbanks (some 200 of which are inhabited), grouped in clusters, or atolls.
The Maldives are known as “the tropical paradise” for reasons such as its beauty. This tropical country has separated islands and islands are surrounded by its own lagoon. Each island has pure white sandy beaches.
The sea covers 99% of the Maldives and it is where you can see beautiful fishes and corals. There are over five thousand coral reefs and plenty of reef fish, corals, and many other marine lives you could see underwater. Diving in the Maldives would be memorable. Maldives is an ideal destination for a family holiday trip where you can enjoy and have a memorable vacation. Visiting and exploring the beauty of the Maldives would be a wonderful experience.
