Answer:

<u>The following is the </u><u>central idea</u><u> of the paragraph:</u>

"The first object which saluted my eyes when i arrived on the coast was the sea, and a slave ship."

<u>The following are the </u><u>supporting details</u><u> of the paragraph:</u>

"These filled m with astonishment, which as soon converted into terror when i was carried on board."

"I was immediately handled and tossed up to see if I were sound by some of the crew; and I was not persuaded that I had gotten into a world of bad spirits, and that they were going to kill me."

Explanation:

The central idea of the paragraph is when Equiano first sees the sea and the slave ship, as it is the moment that will give purpose to the rest of the paragraph; it is the main point of the narration.

The supporting details of the paragraph are what comes after the central idea, and what build up the paragraph's structure as they develop the main idea with more detailed information. In this case, the supporting details show Equiano's fear as he is taken into the ship.

The correct answer is:

The first object which saluted my eyes when I arrived on the coast was the sea, and a slave ship, which was then riding at anchor, and waiting for its cargo. <u>These filled me with astonishment, which was soon converted into terror</u> when I was carried on board. I was immediately handled and tossed up to see if I were sound by some of the crew; and <u>I was now persuaded</u> that I had gotten into a world of bad spirits, and <u>that they were going to kill me</u>.

The central idea of this paragraph are in bold and the <u>supporting details</u> are <u>underlined</u>.

The Options that sustain the claim are the following:  

  1. “Networks formed on line were crucial in organizing a core group of activists, specifically in Egypt.”
  2. “Civil society leaders in Arab countries emphasized the role of ‘the Internet, mobile phones, and social media’ in the protests.”
  3. “Additionally, digital media has been used by Arabs to exercise freedom of speech and as a space for civic engagement.”
