Answers
Answer:
Imagine you've just stepped out of the movies. You and some buddies went to see the latest sequel in a superhero franchise. You spot another friend in line for tickets. She quickly asks you, 'What was that movie about?' You tell her, in your best movie trailer voice, 'The hero faces incredible odds and inspires his city to join his fight against crime.' With a snarky grin on her face, your friend says, 'So what did you learn from this cinematic journey?' Unphased, you fire back, 'One motivated man can be the catalyst for change.'
Okay, so maybe you don't talk like this with your friends, but this imagined scene represents what your English teachers ask you to do. The first question - what was it about - that's one way of asking about the main idea. The second question, about the lesson of the piece - that's a way to ask about theme. In this lesson, you'll learn the difference between main idea and theme, and you'll pick up some strategies that you can use to analyze superhero movies or poems on the AP Literature exam.
