Answer:

Although you have not shown which play you are referring to, we can state that the stage instructions help the reader to understand what is happening, because they show how the character behaves in relation to his personality and posture, in a given situation. Furthermore, when it is stated that the "author is in the shadows" implies that although he has a certain influence, the author is not actively participating in the scene.

Explanation:

Stage instructions are, as the name implies, instructions that the author of a play establishes to show the actors how the character should behave and move in a given situation. The purpose of these instructions is to let the actors know how the message should be conveyed to the audience through the character's movement, facial expression and behavior. These instructions also serve to help readers understand the situation in which the characters are inserted and how it affects them.

When the statement "the author is in the shadows" is provided, it implies that the author is not actually participating in a situation, although he may have some influence.

lara [203]
For a topic sentence, or the beginning sentence that signifies the main idea of the paragraph, you could focus on the fact that there are a variety of things to do at the beach (perhaps the 3rd sentence). To create a hook, or an eye-catching sentence, you can use the childhood memory of learning to swim, but perhaps in more detail. In other words, recreate the scene rather than just saying it was a happy memory (i.e. I'm five years old and am amazed by how weightless I feel in the water). Once you create the hook and topic sentence, you can talk about other activities at the beach as your supporting evidence.
