Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The sentence "People who want to lose weight should seriously consider joining a gym" is limited enough to be the topic sentence of a good paragraph because it clearly identifies the specific topic, weight loss through gym membership, and provides a clear focus for the rest of the paragraph. The other two sentences are too broad and do not provide specific direction for the paragraph.
