Topic sentences
Writing
The main idea is usually found in the first sentence of the paragraph. This sentence is called the topic sentence.
A.Read these paragraphs
about people’s best and worst qualities. Underline the topic sentence in each
paragraph.
I think that my most positive quality is that I’m always
pretty calm and cool, especially when something breaks. I’m really into solving
tricky problems and finding solutions to things. My specialty is electronics.
People come to me if something goes wrong with their laptops or their MP3
players or even their cell phones. For example, two days ago, my dad’s brand
new computer suddenly froze up. He was afraid of causing more damage, so he
asked me to figure out the problem. It only took me 15 minutes to fix it, and I
loved doing it.
