Sherlock Holmes listened to the tale and agreed to visit the crime scene. The safe was open and empty, but it was not damaged. T

here was no visible entry into the room where the safe was kept: the windows were sealed, and the door was not damaged. Mrs. Blakely led Sherlock Holmes farther into the house and stopped in the middle of a hallway of old portraits. There were no windows, and the only door was at the other end of the hallway.
"This spot is where I found the black mask," Mrs. Blakely explained.

Sherlock Holmes inspected the hallway with a wrinkled brow. He walked up and down the hallway. He put his hand on the smooth floor. Then, Sherlock's brow smoothed and a glint entered his eyes. Turning to the wall, he pressed the expensive portrait into the wall.

"What are you doing to my painting?" Mrs. Blakely gasped.

To identify the central idea of a text, it is most helpful to ask what information is missing from the text.
sammy [17]

Answer:

Think about how to summarize the text.

Explanation:

If you can summarize a test, that means that you understand what the text is about. For example, people who have experienced an event, are better at telling the story. Once you summarize the text, you can get an overall idea of what the text is about.

Overall idea = central idea.
