The main purpose of a text will let the reader know why the author wrote the text. Most of the author's purposes are for entertainment, for information or for persuasion. Students should look for key details to let them know the author's purpose. The voice and tone of an author may also reveal his or her purpose. In this quiz, the students will read two different texts and determine their main purpose by answering questions.
