The topic sentence is that which presents the main idea of a paragraph and which expresses the content of which will be spoken. Also is the one that is in charge of attracting the attention of the reader and this will determine if it seems to him interesting and will decide if he wants to continue reading or not to obtain more knowledge of what is written in the paragraph. For example: 1- My sister's graduation party. 2- The need to speak other languages. 3-Smart and utility of the computer.4-Animal at risk.5-Technology and education nowadays.
ReplyDeleteA thematic sentence is like a sentence within a paragraph that expresses the central idea of what is being spoken.
ReplyDeleteExamples:
Topic Sentence: There are many reasons why pollution in ABC Town is the worst in the world.
The topic is “pollution in ABC Town is the worst in the world”.
Topic Sentence: Teen pregnancy may be prevented by improved education.
The topic is "teen pregnancy may be prevented"
The topic sentence is the most important idea in a paragraph, the topic sentence help us to organize the paragraph by summarizing information in a paragraph. Also that used at the beginning of a paragraph o tell the reader what it is you are going to be talking about in that paragraph. It is very important because it leads the reader into the points that you are trying to make, without leaving them confused. Example: 1. Education is important in lowering crime rates.
ReplyDelete2. Texting and driving is dangerous.
3. A River of Legend, a Land of Mystery.
The topic sentence is like the essence of the paragraph, is which explains you what the paragraph is about, the subject of it. It explains you what subjetc are you going to develop in the body of the paragraph and gives you an introducting idea for you to understand better the paragraph.
ReplyDeleteExample: Labradors are the most lovely dogs breed in the world.
A topic sentence tells readers what of the paragraph is about and involve the main idea of the paragraph.
ReplyDeleteExample: the importance of read for have a good memory.
A topic sentence are main words that decipher or explain the context of a paragraph.
ReplyDeleteFor example: The laws here in Panama are fair, as long as the authorities in charge of administering them are not inclined to cronyism or economic.
Topic sentence is the one that details the fundamental idea of which will be spoken in the content of a paragraph.
ReplyDeleteFor example:•They discover a new reef fish that takes care of their young.
•Decreased populations of river streaks,a little-known species.
• A new technique allows to create blood stem cells in the laboratory.
Topic sentences come at the beginning of each paragraph. It is a general statement that introduce the overall idea without going into detail. The topic sentence tells to the readers what is the writing about. I think that it has to be atractive to catch the readers' attention since the beggining.
ReplyDeleteExamples: Traffic jams in Panama, a problem without end. English, the way to get a better future. The risks of consume drugs.
The topic sentence is the most important part in a paragraph. It tells to the reader what it is the text or paragraph about. When you write the topic sentence you have to be creative because you need to catch the attention of the readers since the begining.Example: -Dogs make wonderful pets because they help you to live longer.
ReplyDeleteWell I think The topic is the important Idea that are you thinking about it and you should be only focus in that .For example if I talking about education ,just I need to talk about education .topic sentence has introduction body and conclusion
ReplyDeleteI think so the topic sentences is a sentence that summarizes the main idea of a paragraph.[1][2] It is usually the first sentence in a paragraph. Also known as a focus sentence, it encapsulates or organizes an entire paragraph. It adds cohesion to a paper and helps organize ideas both within the paragraph and the whole body of work at large. Example:
ReplyDeleteEducation is important in lowering crime rates.
Carol never considered becoming a police officer until her sister was the victim of a violent crime.
For me, the topic sentence is like an introduction that, more or less, guides the readers. It is a guide for the reader because it help to understand the topic or theme of the writing. example: the medicines are formulae used to diagnose, to treat and to cure illnesses and they are made in specializing laboratories
ReplyDeleteFor me topic sentence are central sentences within a paragraph wich contain fundamental ideas discussed in paragraph. Example
ReplyDeleteLast month I was the cheef of the kitchen, my boos was in venezuela. I had to delegate many functions.
A topic sentences is the most important sentence is a paragraph.sometimes referred to as a focus sentence, the toic sentence helps organize the paragraph,by summarizing the information in the paragraph.
