**EXAMPLE**

What is your favorite TV SHOW? Why do you like it?

**ANSWER**

My favorite TV show is CSI ( topic sentence)

I like CSI because it creates a lot of suspense. You are always wondering what will happen next. CSI is also good because it makes you think about crime and it is also educational. It teaches you a lot about forensic science. CSI is also my favorite TV show because it is creative. Every week they come up with another strange and unheard of method of murder (support)

CSI is my favorite TV show becasus it is so well done, there is suspense and I like the music. (closing sentence)
