11. Topic sentence Example + Citation Explanation
In “The Bass, the River, and Sheila Mant,” the bass the narrator caught was very large. While the narrator rowed to Dixon, the fish leapt out of the water and “landed with a concussion heavy enough to ripple the entire river” (Wetherell ). This shows that the bass was large enough to cause a huge ripple effect in the water. Furthermore, the narrator points out that the bass drew “a fully loaded canoe backwards” (Wetherell 151). Only a very large, strong fish could draw a boat carrying two people up the river, so this again shows that fish must have been large. Concluding sentence—what would you write??
