Read the paragraph.The armchair, a focal point of the room, had lost its majesty. Once it had been the room’s main attraction, but now, its cushions caved in from the edges and its fabric was torn and faded.Which word helps you understand the meaning of focal?

Answer
A
majesty
B
main
C
fabric
D
faded

Explanation

The paragraph says the armchair was once the room’s “main attraction,” which gives a clue to the meaning of “focal.” A focal point is the main or central feature that draws attention. “Main” is therefore the best clue; “fabric” and “faded” describe the chair’s condition.
