Question

If you wanted to find the main idea in a piece of writing, where would you look?

Answer 1

Explanation:

mainly the first 5 sentences

Answer 2

The main idea is the point of the paragraph. It is the most important thought about the topic. To figure out the main idea, ask yourself this question: What is being said about the person, thing, or idea (the topic)? The author can locate the main idea in different places within a paragraph. In the first sentence is where majority main ideas are found. There's no one place where the main idea is always found.
