Question

The Mystery of Loch Ness

Answer 1

This paragraph seems to be describing Nessie.

So I’d go with the second option.

Answer 2

Answer: The main purpose of the paragraph provided is to describe Nessie.

Explanation: The paragraph provided centers on Nessie, a monster which lives in the Loch Ness. The author describes in great detail where this animal lives and how does it look and move. Furthermore, the author also makes reference to the time that the monster has spent trapped in this famous loch. Therefore, the purpose of the paragraph is to depict Nessie in written words and not to explain scientific experiments/theories or describe people's reaction to Nessie.
