Whatever you want to talk about in your paragraph, your topic sentence will be a sort of summary or preview that will be supported by all the other sentences in your paragraph, so you have to decide what the paragraph is going to be about before you can write your topic sentences. 

<span>Let's look at "Movies." What do you want to say about movies? </span>
<span>Going to the movies is a fun way to spend a Saturday afternoon? Movie special effects today are far superior to those of films just 10 years ago? Movies are a hugh waste of money? </span>A "controlling<span>" </span>idea<span> is an </span>idea<span> that makes a reader ask a question. Any time a </span>topic sentence<span> has a good "</span>controlling<span>" </span>idea<span>, the reader will have his or her curiosity raised.

</span> <span>A topic sentence is the first sentence of a paragraph, that tells what the paragraph is going to be about.

Directions: Select the best verb or verbs to agree with the subject. If the sentence is correct as is, then select
dem82 [27]

Answer:

b. Believes.

Explanation:

Subject-verb agreement refers to the use of the same number for the subject and the verb used. In other words, the subject-verb agreement means the subject and the verb are the same in number, meaning a singular subject will have a singular verb, a plural subject will have a plural verb, etc.

In the given sentence, the subject is "neither of my little brothers". This means it is a singular subject, referring to none of the brothers. Thus, according to the subject-verb agreement, the verb will be in the singular too.

Therefore, the correct sentence will be

Neither of my little brothers <u><em>believes</em></u> in Santa Claus.
