The central idea is that false information in a letter could lead to problems for the Americans, highlighting the critical role of accurate communication in wartime strategies. Here option D is correct.
The excerpt likely discusses how during the AmericanRevolutionary War, generals used various methods to communicate and coordinate their actions, possibly including the use of codes or secret messages.
The mention of "sending secret messages" suggests that the focus is on the potential for miscommunication or deception among the American forces. False information or misinterpretation of messages could lead to problems, such as failed strategies or military setbacks.
While the passage might touch on other topics, such as General Howe's role or the comparative skills of the British and American forces in using codes, these elements seem to be secondary to the broader theme of the consequences of misleading or inaccurate communication during wartime, making option D the most appropriate choice as the central idea.
Complete question:
Which statement best expresses the central idea of the excerpt?
A - Generals were able to send secret messages to each other using a mask.
B - General Howe failed to help the other generals defeat the Americans.
C - The British were better at using codes than the Americans.
