Study skills& DetailsPoints The main idea, also called the main point,
is the most important thought about a topic. It tells the reader what the text is about. It is usually stated in one sentence.Details or supporting details are specific facts, reasons, examples or other kinds of information
used to support the main points. A topic in a paragraph, an article or other passage is a general subject. It can often be expressed in a single word or phrase. DetailsMajor details which directly support the main ideaMinor details which directly support major detailsTopics, Main ideas and Details Topics, main ideas or points, and details work together. The main idea tells the writer’s point about the topic,
and it is supported by details throughout the paragraph
much like the frame of a house supports the roof.How to Determine the TopicSmoking cigarettes is not only a disgusting and smelly habit, but also very bad for your health. It has been proven to cause cancer, lung disease, and heart disease, and to weaken your immune system.
Smoking makes it a lot harder to breathe, which means it’s more difficult to play sports and get the exercise you need to stay healthy. It’s also harmful for those hanging around a smoker, because they breathe the smoky air. Even though most people know how bad smoking is for them, more than 1,000 people die each day from its effect!◆ Ask yourself “Who or what is the passage about?”
◆ Look carefully at the title. Often the general topic is one of the words in the title.
◆ Look for clue words or phrases that are used repeatedly. Often that word or phrase is the general topic of the article.
_______________ TopicMain point/idea?How to Determine the Main Idea2. When stated in the paragraph, the main idea is
expressed in the topic sentence.1. Ask Yourself … What is this passage mostly about?
Why did the writer write this passage? 3. If the main idea is not stated, first find the topic and then look
at all the details that give you enough information to determine
the main idea. Smoking cigarettes is not only a disgusting and smelly habit, but also very bad for your health. It has been proven to cause cancer, lung disease, and heart disease, and to weaken your immune system.

details to explain why it was the
best year in the company’s history. The main idea is stated in the last sentence. There are great numbers of deer around here. This whole area is
a great country for hunters and fishermen. There are bears,
mountain lions, and wolves. To the east there are streams full of fishes,
and there are ducks and geese. The writer begins and ends with examples. The main idea is stated in the second sentence. Finding the main ideasThe main idea is stated in the first sentence. The remaining sentences give examples to explain the reasons. Swimming is one thing that can be done at the beach. Snorkeling is another thing that can be enjoyed. Playing beach volleyball can be a lot of fun. It is also fun to look for shells. Some people simply like to sunbathe.
People can do lots of beach activities to relax themselves. What is the implied main idea? State
it in your own words.
Can you find the main idea directly?Practicing implied main ideasHow to Find (Supporting ) Details1. Decide which details help to further the storyline.
2. Decide which details help you to understand the main idea.

where, why, or how? The answer will give a set of details.
Supporting details answer all those questions that you have about the topic sentences. Why are (supporting )details important?◆ Details help you to better understand the main idea and see the big picture.
◆ Details make the main idea stronger and more interesting.
◆ Details help the writing flow.

The underlined sentence is the Main Point of the paragraph.
The bolded sentences are Major Supporting Details.
The italicized sentences in blue are Minor Supporting Details.When we write about an experience or event, we can organize our ideas using the following five main points. Then we should give details to support the main points by giving reasons, examples, steps, or any other information. Main Points and DetailsWriting Tips on Main Points and Details1. After deciding on your topic, choose two to four or
five supporting points about the topic. 2. Stay on the point. Each main point should be worth writing about.All the main points should relate to the subject and help
develop the reader's knowledge about the subject. 3. Provide enough specific details (Reasons, Examples,
Names, Numbers, Senses …) to support the main points. Reason: Say why your idea is good or bad
Examples: Give proof of your ideas
Names: Use specific names, titles, etc.
Numbers: Give provable numbers
Senses: Give details that refer to our senses (sight,
touch, smell, sound, taste)Each of the main points must be different from all the others.◆ Where was?Timmy?when the
earthquake started?
◆ What happened to Timmy in the
earthquake?
◆ What did Timmy do/see/hear/ feel
in the earthquake ?
◆ How did?Timmy?feel when he
was trapped?
◆ How did?Timmy?survive the earthquake??
◆ Truly specific details excite
the reader’s interest.
◆ They show what the writer means.
◆ They provide strong support for
the main points. Strong supporting evidence is at the heart of effective writing. Write your own paragraph.
Choose from one of these ideas.
2. Write down some main points and details and organize your
ideas before you write.
3. Think of a topic sentence and add supporting details. Make
your paragraph at least four sentences long.
4. Remember: Sentences belong in the paragraph only if they tell
about the main idea. The last day of school Your favorite sport Why do people lie? Main Point/IdeaTo avoid hurting someone’s feelings.To avoid a fight.To fit in.To avoid spending more time with someone.Detail 1Detail 2Detail 4Detail 3Why do people lie? ● Think of a topic sentence.
● Add supporting details.● Develop your writing and make it more interesting.Example People lie for different reasons.People lie for different reasons. One common reason is to avoid hurting someone’s feelings. For example, a friend might ask,“Do you like my new haircut?“ If you think it’s ugly, you might still answer, “Yes.” Another common reason for lying is to avoid a fight. Say a friend angers you and then asks, “Are you upset with me?” You might answer,“No, ”to avoid an argument. People also lie so that they’ll fit in, as when you listen to a boring person and politely say, “That’s interesting.” Moreover, people lie to avoid spending more time withsomeone. For instance, you might lie, “I have to go now.”Possible versionWriting is like soccer. You want to stay
with your point. Adding supporting details is like kicking the soccer ball all the way down field to score the final goal. Read more passages and find their

It has a history of over twenty centuries. In Chinese, we call it “the Ten thousand Ii Great Wall”. In fact, it’s more than 6,000 kilometres long. It was very difficult to build such a wall in the ancient days without any modern machines. Today the Great Wall has become a place of interest not only to the Chinese but to people from all over the world.

A French sculptor, Frederic Auguste Bartholdi, designed the statue in the late 1800s. “Lady Liberty”, as many people call the statue, was a gift from the people of France. It still remains the tallest metal statue in the world. On the base of the statue, one memorable line reads “I lift my lamp beside the golden door.” Lady Liberty sends the message of hope for people fighting
