This question is from an Edgar Allen Poe Article.

Which sentence from the text BEST summarizes a main idea of the article?

A. At first, he seemed to want to be both a writer and a soldier.
B. Then, Poe decided that he would just be a writer, and moved around looking for jobs.
C. In the late 1830s, Poe published some of his most famous stories.
D. However, after he died, Poe became one of America's most famous writers.

Answer 1

I would say D because it summarizes a story very well.

Answer 2

The sentence that most likely offers the summary of the key idea of the article would be:

D). However, after he died, Poe became one of America's most famous writers.

• Summary is defined as the short restatement of the key idea of the work.
• It helps the readers get an essence of the central point that the author discusses through the work.  
• The last statement "However...writers" most likely conveys the main idea that Poe turned out to be one of those popular writers of America after his demise.

Thus, option D is the correct answer.
