How to make a topic sentence if there is none #1 (basic)

Reading demonstration/tutorial explaining how to make a topic sentence for a paragraph that doesn't have one, in order to identify the main idea. This is often called identifying the "implied" main idea. I call it "DIY" or do-it-yourself main idea. This is a study reading or active reading technique to improve reading comprehension.

Keywords:
study reading, active reading, tutorial, reading comprehension, creating a topic sentence, implied main idea, finding the implied main idea
