The correct answer is D. Supporting evidence
Explanation:
In writing, the main idea is the main point the author writes about which is usually connected to an argument, position, point of view, etc. This main or central idea is the one that guides all the process of writing and that is introduced in the first paragraph, then developed in the body paragraph and restated or summarized in the last paragraphs. Additionally, main ideas are commonly developed through supporting evidence that includes sub-ideas, reasons, quotes, example, statistics, etc organized in multiple paragraphs. Thus, a writer needs to develop the main idea by using supporting evidence.
Answer:
A. Pangeans are historically untrustworthy.
Explanation:
The speaker's point of view is most likely that Pangeans are historically untrustworthy. At the beginning of the passage, he states that Pangea has long yearned to possess their resources. That's why he thinks they're likely to attack. Based on the following statements, we can conclude that Pangeans already tried defeating them. He doesn't explicitly state that it was them who attacked (<em>We have never been defeated before </em>- he doesn't say by whom), but based on the context, we can make this conclusion.
The speaker says that his people will defend what is theirs, which means that they will respond to violence by violence. To him, war isn't the last resort for resolving conflict.
Democratic principles are something he obviously treasures (<em>what makes us fair-minded and democratic is our strong national character</em>), and he never says anything about suspending them during wartime.
This is why option A is the correct one.
