📈 A great topic sentence in Writing Task 1 📈
Which of the sentences below is the best first sentence in the fist body paragraph (one about wholemeal bread)?
1️⃣ Starting at almost 2 euros, the cost of wholemeal bread plunged to approximately 0.6 euros one year later.
2️⃣ The price for wholemeal bread changed more than that for the other three types, starting at around €1.9 and plunging to €0.6 one year later.
3️⃣ The only type of bread to have seen a decline in cost is wholemeal bread.
The third one is the best one for three reasons:
1. It properly prepares the reader for what's coming in the paragraph.
2. It is a great foundation for the flow from general to specific.
3. It also prepares the reader for what will be coming later in other paragraphs with the help of the word "only" (because it means the other types saw increases).
What would be a great topic sentence for the next paragraph?
