The correct answer is **"the key point the author wants to communicate."**
**Explanation:** The central idea of a text encapsulates its main argument or message that the author intends to convey to the audience. It serves as the foundation for the themes and concepts discussed throughout the work, guiding the reader's understanding of the text. The other options may represent aspects related to the text but do not capture the essence of what a central idea is.
