What are some examples of a central idea in literature

English
1 answer:
Strike441 [17]3 years ago
5 0

To find the main idea, first read the paragraph or story and ask what the selection is about. While each piece of writing contains multiple details, it also contains one main topic that all of those details relate too. From there, come up with a statement that summarizes those details and that is the main idea.If the paragraph talks about alligators and how they make nests, hatch eggs, and care for their young, the main idea could be alligator reproduction.

What characteristic of Harry's makes us think that he might be a trustworthy narrator?
scoray [572]

Answer:

He tells us when he has minor flaws such as being afraid.

Explanation:

One of the most common issues making a narrator untrustworthy is his/her bias toward oneself and toward other characters of the story whom he/she likes or does not like.

Most of the time bias is in favor of oneself, in rare cases it may be against oneself - blaming oneself excessively.

Telling one's own minor and/or major flaws is only one of many characteristics to make a narrator trustworthy.

All other options are either insignificant for adjudging him as a trustworthy narrator, or opposite of what makes him trustworthy and neutral.

Second and third options are insignificant (do not contribute in making him neutral narrator)

Fourth option is incorrect because focusing on oneself makes a narrator biased and hence untrustworthy.

Vocies,machinery,and other instruments allhad equal chance to drown out the sound of the guitar during a preformance. It is clear that the guitarwould not be replaced,it's still used to this day, however more often than not, it was used as a background instrumentas drums or pianos are. The most common lead in music today would be the singer (voice) or the guitarist.Along with this, the hollow body of a guitar is used to create greater vibrations and a form of echo for a lack of better terms. If anything,the hollow body of a guitar helps its sound travel better han it harms it.
