ESSENTIAL IDEAS

Two Kinds of Information

Explicit Information
 It refers to information found or read in the text.
 The meaning is not vague, no further explanation is needed.
 Readers can see the piece of information stated in the given passage.
 Explicit information is any idea that is clearly stated in detail, with no possibility of
confusion.
 You see, the text explained with explicit information.
 Since you are looking for explicit information in what is read, the explicit information
will be written in the text.
 It does not need clues anymore. You just have to read the written information.

Example 1: Think of a door sign that says, “No Entry.” This door sign explicitly tells you that
you must not enter. However, if the door sign says “Danger”, the word danger will create a
feeling in and tells you must not enter.

Example 2: I am in a hurry. We’ll talk about it later.

Explanation: The speaker had obviously mentioned that he is in a hurry and he has no time to
chat with someone at the moment. Hence, there is no room for doubt because everything is
clearly and directly communicated.

Implicit Information

 It refers to information not directly stated in the text.

 Readers need to read between the lines to understand the details that the writer is
trying to tell.
 Implicit is implied or understood though not plainly or directly expressed.
 The implicit text gives a clue.
  The implicit idea is the primary point of a sentence or passage that is not clearly
stated but hinted at by the text’s details.
 To figure out an implicit idea, one must look at the supporting details in the text.
 Figuring out what people are talking about through their actions refer to implied
ideas.

Example 1: Seated on a couch, Marian looks at her watch and yawns several times.

Explanation: Marian’s looking at his watch and yawning several times implies that she is bored.
