Although this is a personal question that only you can answer, we can still provide an example that will serve as inspiration for your writing.

I will use the topic sentence "sports are necessary for a good education."

<em>As an avid soccer player and a student with a thirst of knowledge, I believe that sports are absolutely necessary for students to have a good education. This is because there are many advantages to sports in a school setting. First, sports allow students to move around and exercise. This is particularly important nowadays, when many people have extremely sedentary lifestyles. Second, sports allow our body to release endorphines, making us feel happy and therefore more receptive to learning. Finally, sports allow us to work on our team-building and bonding skills, which are valuable skills in an education context. In conclusion, sports are an essential component of a well-rounded education.</em>

Which line in this excerpt from Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales contradicts the claim made in the third line that the prioress sp
12345 [234]

From Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales excerpt that contradicts the claim made in the third line that the prioress speaks fluent French is "For French of Paris was not hers to know."

In the General prologue, Chaucer satirizes several characters from various classes and professions. Beginning with the highest class to lower. The first character whom Chaucer introduces is the Prioress who is a nun. She is the first among the female to be described, the first question that evokes in the reader's mind is that such higher religious clergy doesn't take a vow of leading a simple life? Hence, Chaucer satirizes the church, as the members of the church belonged from the upper class. The prioress took advantage from the poor for her own good. She was very well '<em>dainty</em>' and was well-dressed. Being known as <em>"Madame Eglantyne"</em>, she was so pretentious that she hardly knew any words of French.
