Question

Which of the following is an example of a question you should ask yourself to find the main idea of a story?

What other books did this author write?

Why do I think this story is so boring?

How does the author want me to feel?

Who else has read this book and enjoyed it?

Answer 1

HOW DOES THE AUTHOR WANT ME TO FEEL is the correct question

Answer 2

You should always try to think what the author is trying to make you feel.

This is important as the overall literary process is not automatic.

It is a careful planning by the author, his own life and mind views, his own expectations and his own reflection of the life around.

Weaving story patterns that are both abstract and concrete are thus a part of the whole thing.
