WRITING A TOPIC SENTENCE

Write a topic sentence for each paragraph. Make sure your topic sentence
expresses the main idea of the paragraph.
Example:
Miami is the perfect place to take a vacation. It is always sunny and warm.
The beaches are gorgeous, with soft white sand and beautiful water. There
are many fine restaurants in the Miami area, and most of the hotels offer
terrific entertainment nightly. It’s no wonder that Miami is my first choice for
a vacation destination.
1.) ___________________________________________________ . He has
collected stamps and coins ever since he was a child. He is very proud of his
valuable collections. Paul also enjoys painting and drawing. Recently he has
become interested in gardening. Out of all his hobbies, Paul’s favourite one is
reading. He usually reads at least one book every week. Paul keeps busy with
all of his hobbies.
2.) _________________________________________________ . I can’t wait
to come home from school and eat the delicious meals she has prepared. She
is famous for her desserts like peach pie and chocolate soufflé. She is always
experimenting with new recipes and trying different ingredients. No one in
the world can cook the way my mother does.
3.) _________________________________________________ . It never
starts in cold weather. The horn and the left turn signal don’t work properly.
Worst of all, the radio only gets one station and the CD player is completely
broken. I wish I could get a new car.
4.) __________________________________________________ . First and
most importantly, the work is very interesting. I learn new things every day
and I get to travel a lot. In addition, my boss is very nice. She is always
willing to help me when I have a problem. I have also made many new
friends at my job. Last, but not least, the salary is fantastic.
5.) ____________________________________________________ . To start
things off, my plane was six hours late. When I finally got to my hotel, I was
very disappointed. It was small and dirty. On the third day, my wallet was
stolen, and I lost all my credit cards. It rained very day except one, and on
that day I got a terrible sunburn. All in all, it wasn’t a vacation to remember.
