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.

If you want to learn how to pronounce an English word, what should you do? O A. Visit an online dictionary and click the speaker
AfilCa [17]

If you want to learn how to pronounce an English word, you should:

O A. Visit an online dictionary and click the speaker icon.

<u>Learning English Pronunciations</u>

The speaker icon of an online dictionary provides the best chance to learn how to pronounce an English word, especially if you are learning on your own.

You can also learn to pronounce an English word by checking out how good speakers of English language pronounce the word.  This implies that trying to sound it out without a dictionary is not a good idea.

Similarly, you cannot learn to pronounce words by taking a best guess or just consulting the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA).

IPA is a phonetic notation system developed for world languages.  It represents each distinct sound with a set of symbols. English dictionaries use the International Phonetic Alphabet to indicate the pronunciation of words.

This implies that it will be cumbersome for a learner to rely on IPA instead of an online English dictionary to learn an English word.
