What type of reviews did the book receive?
How many copies of the book have been sold?
What is the central idea?
How does this text make one feel?
Answer:
The correct options are:
Explanation:
Different types of text are associated with certain porpouses. For instance, an article or an expository essay might look to infrom a reader, while a short story or a novel might strive to entertain.
The central idea is the second clue, since the topic and focus of the writing are presented here. A text that revolves around the Revolutionary War might be seeking to inform, explore, or discuss the topic, while another one that deals with a critique of different types of music could be trying to just present the author's point of view.
If all of the above still leaves uncertainty, the feeling created on the reader could be another clue. If a text makes the reader question their point of view, the author might have been looking to make their readers reflect.
Mrs. Pavloff . . . [listened] to her grandchildren squabble and she heard her mother’s voice. . . . She remembered the ride to the sea, the silence when the first shimmers of water became visible. . . .

b. The time of sunrise and sunset
c. The temperature
d. The average wind speed
Answer:
If I plan to go ice-skating, in order to see if this is a good idea, I should check the temperature in the daily newspaper. The correct answer is C.
Explanation:
All the other options are not useful if I want to ice-skate. The first one is not helpful because I want to go today, or tomorrow, I don't need a 90 day forecast. The time of sunrise and sunset is not important because I can ice-skate during the day or night, and the average wind speed is not necessary to go ice-skating. The only option possible is C because by knowing the temperature we will know the state of the ice rink and which clothes to wear before going out.
