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.
I grew up wondering if God was real but was unsure. I used to look out the window of my childhood home and was curious if God was a real being while glancing out at the clouds in the sky. Growing up one time I was on a pier by the beach in California watching the waves come slightly splashing up against the side of the pier for about 15 to 20 minutes or so. Looking out accross the Ocean and natures scenery I was again sparked by curiousity concerning the reality of God being real. By inspiration I decided to speak to God and I said, "God......., If your real, cause a big wave to come and hit this pier right now." To my utter and complete amazment the hugest wave came crashing against the pier right as I got done with my statment to God. The wave crashed over the pier and over my head completely drenching me causing me to become soaking wet. I was exilerated and in awe and in an instant I knew my life had purpose knowing beyond a shadow of a doubt that God is completely real and real personally to me. From that moment on since then I have always known my life has meaning, and that specifically because the God of the Universe is completely real, and personally lovingly real to me.
I would think of nature being more authentic and real then in a video game. It could be hinting towards the fact that the newer generation is online more than off.
