Answer:
With unemployment running at 11%, the city government essentially <u>bankrupted</u>, and the population actually <u>was falling</u> as young people <u>left</u> in droves, there were few bright spots in Bartovia’s future.
One of the few, however, <u>was</u> a new venture run by Sergio Leone, a nano-chemist who had returned to the city of his birth to try and made the impossible a reality.
Explanation:
This text is written in the past tense, so we should put all the tenses into the past tense. We use the Past Simple to describe finished actions in the past (bankrupted) and to express finished actions that we have introduced with another tense (in this case, past continuous).

The central or main idea either refers to the point or purpose of a paragraph or it refers to the summary of a piece of writing. These two concepts are closely related in a piece of writing because the point of each paragraph should contribute to the point of the entire piece of writing. In order to discover the point or purpose of a paragraph, one must first identify the topic of the piece of writing. Then, one must identify the structure or medium used to discuss the topic. Finally, for a paragraph, one should identify the sentences that the other sentences seem to support, and for an entire text, one should identify the statement or idea that the paragraphs seem to discuss or support. When this process is applied to the excerpt from An Interview with Marielle Tsukamoto, I come up with the following answers:
