We can't see underlining here, but here, I think this will be helpful:
"I read a novel" would be the intependent clause: it does not need the other one to be complete.
"until the guests arrived" is the subordinate clause: it needs the independent, main clause to be complete.
It helps by stating the main idea developed in the paragraph.

Answer:
Standardized tests often ask students to identify evidence for a particular main idea. To teach students how to do this, first clarify three key terms.
TOPIC: who or what the reading passage is about.
MAIN IDEA: The most important point the author is making about the topic.
DETAILS:The specific words and sentences that are repeated in the text.
Explanation:
TOPIC: The topic is simply the subject of the passage (e.g., panda or panda cub). The topic can be stated in 1-2 words.
MAIN IDEA: Although the topic is a couple of words, the main idea is always a sentence. It’s the most important or overall point the author is making. The topic (e.g., panda cub) is embedded in the main-idea sentence. But the rest of the sentence more narrowly reveals a specific facet or perspective of the topic (e.g., Panda cub is ready for public debut).
EVIDENCE: Evidence of the main idea includes the words, phrases, and sentences within the original text that repeat or reiterate the sentiment of the main-idea sentence.
