Key: TMain Idea and Supporting Details
1. (Politics)
When a party is elected to Parliament in Britain it many not stay in power for more than 5 years without calling an election. But—now this is an important point—the Prime Minister may “go to the country”, that’s to say call an election at any time before the 5 years are up. This is important because it gives the Prime Minister in Britain a lot of power—he can choose the best time to have an election for his own party. In many other countries the timing of an election is fixed—it must take place on a certain date every 4 years, or whatever, and this means that in these countries the President or Prime Minister cannot choose the most convenient time for himself, the way a British Prime Minister can.
Answer: main idea
Reason: “this is an important point”

At the beginning of the century, the area was made healthy by spraying the breeding waters of the mosquitoes with petroleum. Work was able to be started again and the canal was finished in 1914.
