Question

what is another word for central idea?
plot
center point
theme
main idea

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• "plot" refers to the sequence of events in a story, not the central idea.
• "center point" is a more general spatial or abstract point, not specific to a text's central idea.
• "theme" is the underlying message or concept, while "main idea" directly means the central or most important idea of a text. Since the question asks for another word for "central idea", "main idea" is the most direct synonym.

Answer:

D. main idea
