Question

I was told by some people I met online that I would make a lot of money if I invested in their "amazing" business plan. I admit, I was greedy. I gave them a lot of money. In the end, I lost the money and was almost arrested. I realized that money is not as important to me as my freedom 3. Is the theme of this passage explicit or implicit? 4. What is the theme?

Answer 1

The theme is implicit because it describes just enough of the author's experience for the reader to understand what happened. The theme is that greed can cause trouble.

Answer 2

The passage is implicit since it is explaining what is understood, and the theme for this is being carfeul on how you spend your money, or control your greed.
