Finding the Central Idea in a Passage
The idea of invisible ink had been around for a long time. Write using lemon juice as ink, for instance, and the writing will be invisible. Heat the paper, and the writing will appear, looking as if it were written in brown ink. British agents used two types of ink. One could be made visible by holding the paper over the flame of a candle; the other could be read by applying a common chemical. Major John André, the chief British intelligence officer in New York, told his agents to put an F in the corner of letters containing invisible ink needing fire to read and A for those needing acid.

—George Washington, Spymaster,
Thomas B. Allen

What is the central idea of the passage?

Invisible ink isn’t really invisible at all.
Lemon juice is the earliest form of invisible ink.
British agents used invisible ink to send secret messages.

Answer:

A). Invisible ink isn’t really invisible at all.

Explanation:

The chief idea which the author aims to convey through the given passage would be that 'invisible ink is not actually invisible.' This claim is substantiated through the descriptions asserting the type of inks(lemon juice, brown ink) that have been used to write such invisible content and also regarding how this invisible content can be visible(by holding the paper over candle's flame or using a chemical). This shows that the ink is not actually concealed completely. Thus, option A is the correct answer.

Whitman uses rhyming couplets, but he intentionally breaks the flow and pattern of the couplets in the last four lines of each stanza. Notice, too, that rhymes are sometimes perfect (ex: "done" and "won"), but other times the rhymes are slant or near (ex: "bells" and "trills"). Why, do you suppose, Whitman decided to subtly break the traditional pattern?
