alleryA topic sentence usually comes:
AFirst in a paragraph
BLast in a paragraph
COnly in the title
DAfter every example
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. First in a paragraph
1. The topic sentence states the main idea.
2. In expository writing it is usually the first sentence in the paragraph.
3. Readers use it to predict what the rest of the paragraph will say.
4. So it usually comes first, not in the title or after each example.
**Why not the others:** Last in a paragraph is possible but unusual, and a title or a position after every example does not describe a topic sentence.
