...to this rule unless you are instructed otherwise.) Not only is a topic sentence the first sentence of a paragraph, but, more importantly, it is the most general sentence in a paragraph. What does "most general" mean? It means that there are not many details in the sentence, but that the sentence introduces an overall idea that you want to discuss later in the paragraph. For example, suppose that you want to write a paragraph about the natural landmarks of your hometown. The first part of your paragraph might look like this: My hometown is famous for several amazing natural features. First, it is noted for the Wheaton River, which is very wide and beautiful. Also, on the other side of the town is Wheaton Hill, which is unusual because it is very steep. (Notice how the first sentence begins with "My hometown..." a few spaces to the right of the paragraph edge. This is an indentation. All paragraphs in English MUST begin with an indentation.) Note how the first sentence, My hometown, Wheaton, is famous for several amazing geographical features,is the most general statement. This sentence is...

...Last school holiday, my family and I went back to our hometown, the eagerly-awaited holidays bring a respite from homework, lessons, extracurricular activities and exams. For me, spending a holiday at home is equally unbearable. 0n the last day of school, I eagerly waited for the bell to ring at 1:10 p.m.. Then, I felt like a caged bird hat has just been set free. I slang my bag over my shoulder and make a beeline for the bust station. My hometown! We started our journey early in the morning. When we arrived, we had a quick lunch. I make a short exchange and headed for my favourite spot here- a secluded corner of my grandfather durian orchards. There under a shady spot, I sat down a surveyed the surroundings. Here, far away from claustrophobic classrooms, rushing crowds, busy sidewalks and congested streets, I enjoyed the solitude of nature. As I took my seat on a flimsy woody bench, and looked around me, I can see a flurry of activities. Birds flew gracefully and noiselessly above me while bees traveled flirtatiously from tree to tree, colourful butterflies flit about here and there flapping their fragile wings and ants scurry in a single file carrying bits of food on their tiny backs. A soft cool breeze blowed. I can hear the soft rustle of leaves. The air is heavy with the scent of shrubs and grasses coupled with the scent of ripe durians. I lied on my back with my hand clasped behind my head and watched streaks of sunlight...

...times in my dream. When I plan the trip of Seattle with my girlfriend, the Mountain Rainer is actually do not in it. My girlfriend is a totally foodie, so the plan of trip is surround by many famous restaurants. Seattle is a good place for living, the commodity prices is not too high, and people are not rush for life. If it compare with some other same size city, I would like choosing live in Seattle. In the third day of trip, I saw a snowcap when I stood in front of my hotel’s window. It looks like the Qilian Mountain in my hometown. My girlfriend also like it, so we did some quick search in Google, and made a simple plan for travel to the Mountain Rainer. When I drive about three hours, my car enter into a straight road, which I can saw the snowcap more and more clearly. The Mountain Rainer is like a glamour girl stood in there very calm. I was completely charmed by her beaut. I stop my car in a rest area of national park, and walk in a trail. There are many high trees in the foot of mountain, and I can hear flow of water. Everything was quiet, and the fresh air wash over my face with little rain. The environment surround me makes me felt same with home. There is no modern building in there, only the original nature. Human, animal and nature are very harmony. I like the taste that mixes rain and soil. I feel the taste can help to clear my soul. It makes me feel went back to my childhood. When I was young, my uncle usually took me in the forest near by my hometown, and teaches...

...Another reason one might travel is to Celebrate. Many people travel to celebrate special occasions such as: a wedding, anniversary, birthday, or birth. There’s always something to celebrate and it doesn’t always happen where you live. Another reason one might travel is to go on a Honeymoon. When people get married they usually celebrate their wedding by going on a Honeymoon. This usually occurs after a wedding, but there are many occasions where people celebrate their honeymoon years later. Another reason one might travel is work related. Job requirements might mean a fair bit of travel is involved. Even if the travel is within your own country it still has a purpose attached to it. My most recent travel experience was to Six Flags over Georgia. My reason for traveling was to get away from my hometown and go somewhere and have fun and enjoy myself. We chose to go to Six Flags over Georgia because we enjoy riding the rides in the amusement park, and we also were able to go to the water park (White...

...Blistered Home When I hear the word “home”, the first thing that comes into my mind is a quiet, cozy place where I feel content. Although if someone were to ask me where my hometown is, I would say, “Angeles City,” because that is the only logical answer. I know and feel that this lively city with a hodgepodge of colorful people does not feel anything like my idea of home, but it is where I’ve lived for the entirety of my life and I will acknowledge that. Angeles City, commonly known as the “Entertainment Capital of the Philippines”, is not exactly that but it sure is close. If you know where to go and what to do, there’s never a dull moment when you’re here. I don’t think I’ve ever been to a more peculiar place. If you’ve ever been to Angeles City, the first thing you’ll most likely notice is the haphazard smorgasbord of eatery scattered everywhere. This is because according to most people, this city serves only the best food. Growing up, I have been able to experience the cultural taste of Angeles and without realizing it, I inevitably became used to the overload of flavor present in our food; so much that whenever we eat someplace when we go on vacations, everything just seems bland in comparison. It is not only our food that is queer, but the residents are as well. Because our food is well known, some people judge our way of living based on that but while our food is traditional, us residents are anything but. In fact, I would say we’re the opposite...

...include Wlamart United States, Walmart International, and Sam’s Club. These main divisions are the core of its’ organizational structure. From these divisions leadership and management is then regionally developed and divided into regions of each division all the way down to store managers. The headquarters of this nearly billion dollar corporation still lies in the state of Arkansas where it was began, which would make Walmart United States the top division of the three. This organizational structure is for a global, publically shared company that is seemingly only profiting more with time. A smaller company such as a hometown car dealership would operate under a much different organizational structure. Most of them in my area are family owned and operated, which would reflect on the matrix structure more than anything. One head CEO of the small company in my hometown is in charge of the whole thing....

...you for considering me for the position of Sales Manager at Einstein Furniture and Design in Dallas. Interior design has always fascinated me and after working at a small furniture store in my hometown, I fell in love with how creative one can be in this field. Cindy Wilbanks, my ninety-year-old manager at the time, was a true inspiration. Her knowledge and experience in interior design paved the way for my continued interest in designing spaces and creating one of a kind experiences for customers.

...Ervan Valdez Professor Forest English 1010 75E 4/5/2014 My Hometown The most magnificent place to be, besides my bed, is San Francisco, California. The mixture of clean crisp air and air pollution, the gorgeous view atop the Coit Tower, and the taste of salt in the waters of the bay. It is Seven O’clock in the morning, the sun is starting to drag itself higher, shining the landscape, the scent of brewed coffee in every home and restaurant indicates the start of a beautiful day. People on their way to work, students on their way to school. For me, it’s exactly the memories and joy I experience when I am there that will always have a special place in my heart. We moved to many districts in San Francisco, but the home I will always remember was in the city limits located in the middle of downtown Tenderloin. It was an old apartment with the exterior occupied by loiterers which smell of burned nicotine, and the aroma of liquor. We stayed on the 3rd floor of the apartment where I would play freeze tag with my friends in the spacious red carpet hallways, jump three steps up or down in the carpeted stairs, and sneak up to the grey painted roof, tossing rocks off to the distance. There was a parking lot in the back for tenant’s vehicles, sometimes used by the public to park for special events or enjoy the weekend nightlife. Before the sun starts to set slowly, we would have a pickup game of basketball in a rim secured on a plywood that’s also secured on a high fence about ten feet...

...inimitable place to be, besides in my husband’s arms, is Harrogate, Tennessee. The rolling hills, clean crisp air, and spaciousness all surpass the city life. The memories and joy I experience when I am there will always have a special place in my heart. My house resided in the country. A cow field was my backyard, and I would play hide and seek with my friends behind the hay bales. From the moment we got home and put our Bratz Doll backpacks down until the moment the pinkish, yellow sun was setting, my friends and I were always in a new adventure. At times, the golden rays would shine and radiate without a cloud in the sky. The gentle breeze was just enough to make it comfortable. The grass had already dried from the early morning dew, making it look freshly cut and greener than ever. As we would run around making up games to play, my black and white English Springer Spaniel, otherwise known as Bubba, would follow us eagerly with his wet teeming tongue hanging out of his parched mouth and his tail wagging like a hammer in an ongoing alarm clock. In Knoxville, the population and space is far too crowded to enjoy pleasures like those in Harrogate. In a way, it is suffocating here, and I miss the feeling of peace and contentment when at home. During winter season, it would snow fervently. My yard also consisted of a rather giant slope. Due to many hills and back roads that would get black ice very easily, school was called off frequently. My friends and I would get so...

...Kimberly Tucker, Chris Salt, Ashley Solomon Case 7: Mattel: Overcoming Marketing and Manufacturing Challenges 11/01/2010 Marketing Management 6800 Section 004 The Problem: The problem surrounding Mattel Inc., one of the world’s largest toy companies, is their mismanagement of international subcontractors and vendors and the production of certain toys (the manufacturing process), as well as their inability to adapt their marketing strategy or product to the constantly changing “demographic and socioeconomic trends” (Ferrell, et. all 466). This is supported by Mattel’s legal battle with Carter Bryant and MGA, their forced recall of certain toys that were manufactured overseas, and the increasing rate at which traditional toys are becoming less appealing to today’s young audience. Essentially, Mattel’s mismanagement and oversight lead to violations in terms of ethical and social responsibilities and safety standards. Issues Relevant to the Problem: Mattel’s problem of mismanagement can be divided into several issues that need to be considered: legal issues, international supply chain issues, and an increase in technology-based toys. In regards to legal issues, Mattel has been involved in prolonged litigation with Carter Bryant and MGA over a breach of an employment contract and copyright infringement. Due to Mattel’s poor management of its overseas manufacturers, in which unauthorized subcontractors and third-party suppliers were hired and unsafe materials used, several...
