Answer 1

use Expression(Of Func(Of TableName, Boolean)) as input parameter to your method

    Public Function SelectFirstOrDefault(ByVal filterExpr As Expression(Of Func(Of T, Boolean))) As T 
    Return _dbContext.Set(Of T).FirstOrDefault(filterExpr)
End Function

then you can call it as below:

    Public Function Select() As MyTypeInfo
    dim expr = New Expression(Of Func(Of TableNameClass, Object))() {Function(x) x.Code, Function(x) x.LastModifiedDate, Function(x) x.Title}
    SelectFirstOrDefault(expr)
End Function
