Question

PART A: Which statement best expresses the central idea of the text? HOW YOU SEE YOURSELF

Answer 1

Answer:

B.  A stable self-image is important in making good decisions and building relationships.

Explanation:

In the informational essay "How You See Yourself", the author talks about the importance of a stable self-image one has of oneself. The essay details how a person who is clueless about his/ her own self-image can lead to their own destruction.

The author then goes on to enumerate how many young people, with the illusion that they are the best, went on to reality shows thinking they'd win the prize but end up being eliminated in the first round. But "people having relatively stable self-images is pretty important in having and maintaining good relationships with others", which is why having a good knowledge of one's self-image is important for a person.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.
