Scientists will continue to investigate the mystery of the yawn. Is it a leftover behavior from before humans had language? Was it a "Hey, I'm sleepy. Let's go to sleep" message? Or is it really just a way to keep our brains cool? While this behavior still is largely a mystery, one thing is certain: you are probably fighting the urge to yawn right about now.

Which line shows the main idea of the bolded paragraph?

Answer 10

definitely not C or D because that's not the main idea

Answer 11

Is it... A?

Answer 12

I think so, yes. because B seems like it'd be right but it's not the main idea. the paragraph keeps asking where the yawn came from, so I'd say it's A. correct again :)

Answer 13

Thanks theres another one! sorry i just want to make sure im right bc its an exam!!

Answer 14

Science has given humans many amazing devices and useful bits of knowledge. We know so much about our bodies and how to stay healthy, for example. We also know how to make machines and devices that make life easy for us. Scientists dedicate their lives to knowledge, but even with a lifetime commitment, sometimes scientists fail to find all the answers. One mystery that still remains unsolved is why we yawn—what makes us yawn and what purpose it serves.

Answer 15

it's not B or C. I wanna say it's D except for the fact that it's not really talking about that until the last sentence. I think it's A, which answer did you get for this one?

Answer 16

I'm not sure.... I sort of thought it was C..

Answer 17

C makes sense but I don't think it's the MAIN idea. the main idea is what the passage is mostly about.

Answer 18

I'm not sure, I think you should open a new question and ask for opinions about that question

Answer 19

more opinions*

Answer 20

Yea... Oh wait it does make sense to be A!

Answer 21

I went back and read it..

Answer 22

glad I could be helpful then :)
