Hey there,
Your question states: What is the topic sentence in the following paragraph? Based by looking at the following options, your correct answer would be a<span> trip to the ocean can be a relaxing escape from the everyday pressures of life. The reason why I say this would be because this has a more narrow meaning into this. It give's more of a cleft hanger for the person to make it a topic sentence.

Answer:
Percy gets into trouble on a field trip. He puts Nancy (a bully), into a fountain. She then drops her lunch into Grover's lap. They get into a fight, but Mrs. Dodds intervenes. Ms. Dodds then takes Percy into the Roman and Greek center where Ms. Dodds turns into this monster who has glowing eyes and wings, with long fingers. It tries to kill Percy but Mr. Brunner tosses a pen to Percy which turns into a golden sword that Mr. Brunner uses at class when he dresses up. It cuts Ms. Doddds on the shoulder. Then she turns into yellow powder. Percy Jackson kills Mrs. Dodds in the Museum on a field trip with a pen that turns into a sword, because she turned into an evil hag with wings and talons and tried to kill him because she knew he was special (half-blood).
