Question

what question would you ask yourself if you were synthesizing what you read? what message is the author trying to convey? what does this word mean? what is the setting of the story? what is the main character’s name?

Explanation:

Synthesizing reading involves understanding the overall message. "What message is the author trying to convey?" focuses on the main idea, while the others are about details (word meaning, story setting, character name) not synthesis.

Answer:

A. What message is the author trying to convey?
