Question

Dear Jamie:

The Student Council started a program— called “Welcome to Lincoln”—for new transfer students. This program gives new students a tour of the school and assigns them study-buddies to help them in their first few weeks. The program has been beneficial for other new students, and I think you would benefit from it, too. As you are a new student in our school, I want to invite you to enter the program.

Sincerely,

Miguel Norris

Read this draft of the letter Miguel is writing to his classmate to invite her to join a school program. Which of these choices is the BEST topic sentence for this paragraph?
A) You probably don't know much about your new school.
B) Our school has many excellent after-school activities.
C) Our school has started a program that I think you will enjoy.
D) The Student Council needs students to participate in its programs.

Answer 1

I believe the answer is C.

Answer 2

The answer is:

C) Our school has started a program that I think you will enjoy.

As we can read in the letter, this tells Jamie about an specific program that she might like to participate in. In this case the most appropiate topic sentece is one that describes that they just recently started a program that suits her.
