Look back at paragraph C on page 11.
Which of these statements is the main idea of the paragraph?

a. Being active is a good way to boost happiness.
b. Nic Marks enjoys listening to the radio and dancing.

KEEP ACTIVE
Nic Marks is the founder of the Happy Planet Index, which tracks national well-being around the
world. One of the most important ways to improve well-being, he believes, is to
keep active—healthy people are happier people. “The fastest way out of a bad
mood,” Marks says, is to “step outside, go for a walk, turn the radio on and
dance. Being active is great for our positive mood.” Walking a pet outdoors is
another way we can improve our mood. Pets encourage their owners to be active,
while also providing love and friendship, thus boosting their owners’ self-esteem.

Complete the sentences below. Choose the correct verb form.

1. Elgin and Mia volunteer / volunteers at a nursing home on weekends.

2. The city don’t have / doesn’t have a lot of cycling paths.

Let's Play Blooket

• In your paragraph, you need to give three

reasons that support your topic sentence.
Choose the three best reasons from your
brainstorming notes in Exercise A and write

them in the space provided.

• Details, examples, and facts support each
reason. They help the reader better understand

your reasons.

Brainstorm a list of things that make people in your community happy and
a list of things that people in your community may be unhappy about.

Look at your two lists in Exercise A. Which list is stronger? Are there more
reasons to be happy or unhappy?

WRITE A STRONG TOPIC SENTENCE

Choose the correct option.
Topic Sentence:
People in my community are generally happy /
