Question 9 of 14
Which statement best represents the thesis, or main point, of this paragraph?Most teens would never consider spending a Saturday wandering
around a museum. In fact, museum ticket sales reveal that only one in
six patrons is between the ages of 13 and 19. Two years ago, I became
a member of that small percentage of teen museum patrons, and it
changed my life. As I walked the halls of Parkville Museum of History, I
studied every exhibit, artifact, and piece of information like I was a
detective solving a mystery. By the time I reached the exit doors, I
knew I wanted to become an archaeologist to uncover the secrets and
solve the riddles of history.A. An archaeologist's job is to solve history's puzzles, much like a
detective of the past.
© B. I enjoy visiting museums on the weekends, especially museums
that involve exhibits and artifacts.
© C. Exploring a history museum inspired my dream of a career as an
archaeologist.
O D. The percentage of teens who visit museums is low, because few
teens are interested in history.

The statement that best represents the thesis of the paragraph is "Exploring a history museum inspired my dream of a career as an archaeologist," in option C.

What is a thesis?

As mentioned in the question, the thesis of a paragraph is the main point or main idea expressed in it. In other words, it is the most important piece of information the author wishes to convey.

In the paragraph we are analyzing here, the author does mention more than just one piece of information. He mentions, for instance, the fact that teens don't usually go to museums. However, the most important point is how he was inspired to become an archaeologist.

With the information above in mind, we can choose option C as the correct answer.
