What is a topic sentence?
4. Losing weight isn’t really easy as some people say. A lot of people
decide to lose weight and start exercising for a few days, but they later
give up and quit. It’s always easy to start something, but completing it is
often difficult. Another reason is that food is often delicious and
tempting, so even if someone goes on a diet, they go back to their
normal unhealthy eating habits. Moreover, some people lose their
motivation when they don’t see quick results for their exercise or diet.
Finally, losing weight is the first step, but staying in shape (keeping fit)
needs long-term commitment.

Topic vs Controlling idea in the TOPIC SENTENCE
6. Supporting sentences support the topic sentence by giving examples, reasons, results,
quotes or explanations, and make the reader accept or believe the topic sentence.
Supporting sentences need connecting words (sometimes called transition signals) to
connect the ideas together and make it easier for the reader to understand the ideas and
their relations to one another.
Connecting words include words for:
Adding, giving examples, giving reasons, giving results, comparing and contrasting,
emphasizing, etc.

7. The concluding sentence comes at the end of the paragraph and signals the end of ideas.
There are two ways to write the concluding sentence:

We often use these phrases :
● In conclusion, …
● To conclude, …
● To sum up, …
● From all these examples, we can see that,…

8. Getting married early isn’t really a good idea for a man for
many reasons. First, when a man gets married in his early
twenties, he isn’t mature enough to deal with marriage
responsibilities. Also, most people in that age don’t have jobs
yet, and they depend on their parents financially. Another
problem is that he will be under the pressure and stress of
daily life too early, which might lead to depression. In addition,
all these problems along with other issues could push him to
think of getting divorced. Indeed, early marriage has some bad
consequences for a young man.

9. Although most people think video games are a waste of time,
the truth is video games have lots of advantages. One of the
pros is that they make children think and use their minds to
solve puzzles and find solutions to problems they face in the
game. Another advantage is that some games help kids and
young people learn new words and sentences from other
languages. In addition, games are a good way to have fun
with brothers, sisters, and even with parents. In conclusion,
video games, despite having some negative points, are a
good way to have fun, enjoy your time and learn new things.

assignments.
What are the parts of an essay:

Writing an essay
24. Paragraph vs Essay
A paragraph An essay
A group of connected sentences A group of connected paragraphs
Topic Sentence (first sentence) Introductory paragraph
Starts with some general sentences, and
ends with a thesis statement
Supporting sentences Body paragraphs (each one has its own
topic sentence)
Note : there’s no need for a concluding
sentence for each paragraph
Concluding sentence (you can rephrase the
topic sentence)
Concluding paragraph (You can rephrase
the thesis statement)
25. The introductory paragraph has two main parts:
1 General statements: a few sentences to lead in and get the reader’s
attention. They should be interesting and gradually guiding the reader
to the thesis.
2 The thesis statement: the most important sentence in the whole
essay. It introduces the main idea that will be discussed in the body
paragraphs, and in some cases, how many points (body paragraphs)
we have.
The introductory paragraph
26. Each body paragraph usually discusses one point, side, problem, reason,
result…of the topic in the thesis statement.
For example, If your essay is about the negative effects of smoking, you
can talk about health in the first body paragraph, money in the second
one, bad smell in the third, etc.
Each body paragraph still needs it’s own topic sentence and supporting
sentences of course. But there’s no need to write a concluding sentence
for every body paragraph.
Body Paragraphs
27. The concluding paragraph can be one of these two:
1 – Restating the thesis statement
2- Summing up the main points in the body paragraphs very briefly.
When we restate the thesis, we rephrase it, which means we say the same
thing but in different words, and that’s to avoid repetition and make it more
interesting for the reader. We also try to use different words when we sum
the points in the body paragraphs.
The concluding paragraph
28. In the topic sentence / thesis statement:
…, but life in Istanbul can be really difficult for foreigners
In the Concluding sentence / paragraph:
… For all these reasons, living in Istanbul might be very hard for strangers
or
… So, if you’re not from Turkey, living in Istanbul may be a real challenge.
In the topic sentence / thesis statement:
… Studying French takes a very long time and a lot of effort
In the Concluding sentence / paragraph:
That’s why you really need to work hard and be patient to learn a language like French.
Examples of rephrasing
29. If you are writing an essay about life in Istanbul
Thesis statement (in the introductory paragraph) :
…, but life in Istanbul can be really difficult for foreigners.
Topic sentence in Body paragraph 1 :
First of all, most Turkish people don’t speak English.
Topic sentence in Body paragraph 2 :
Another problem is the traffic and the crowds.
Topic sentence in Body paragraph :3
In addition to language and traffic, Istanbul is also really expensive.

30. Modern technology has completely changed the way we live and it has become an
essential part of our everyday life. One example of modern technology in the field of
entertainment is video games. Because of the big leaps in modern tech, these games are
getting more beautiful, easier to play, more fun, and of course more addictive. However,
whether you like them or not, video games have advantages as well as disadvantages.
One of the pros of video games is that they can teach us new things. For example, lots of
people, especially children, learn plenty of English words from games. They also improve
some skills that are related to using the mouse and keyboard, touch screens, and dealing
with apps in general. Another good thing we get from video games is the wonderful time we
spend together when we play family-friendly games. In addition to that, games can be a
great time-filler for kids, so they don’t want to go out and play in the street all the time.
Sample Essay: Page 1
31. On the other hand, video games definitely have some disadvantages. First of
all, if we aren’t careful about how much we play, these games can be a waste of
precious time that can be filled by doing sports or other hobbies. When children
play video games, they don’t feel the time, and they almost never say it’s enough.
So, unless the parents tell them, they keep playing on and on. That point takes us to
the second disadvantage: the negative effect of games on our health. Playing for
long hours can make your eyes sore. It can affect your sight and require you to wear
glasses as well. But the eyes aren’t the only parts of the body that get negatively
affected by long playing. The way we sit, how we hold the controllers, and how
often and fast we press the buttons all lead to stress, fatigue, and sometimes pain in
the neck, the back, the arms, and the hands.
So, the next time you want to play a game, or when your kids ask you to buy a
new game for them, keep in mind all the pros and cons you get from them, and
more importantly, don’t forget to enjoy and have fun with your family.
