Paragraph 1
A reason I believe in teen curfews is my concern for teens' safety. When teens stay out late, they must either drive or walk home when they are tired, when visibility is limited, and when crime rates are statistically high. Therefore, curfews help parents and communities ensure the well-being of their young people by requiring them to be home early. Although I disagree with some of the traditional consequences for violating a curfew, I feel curfews are a good thing. Teen curfews can help protect young people.

Which of these is the topic sentence?
a.
When teens stay out late, they must either drive or walk home when they are tired, when visibility is limited, and when crime rates are statistically high.
c.
A reason I believe in teen curfews is my concern for teens' safety.
b.
Therefore, the curfews help parents and communities ensure the well-being of their young people by requiring them to be home early.
d.
Although I disagree with some of the traditional consequences for violating a curfew, I feel curfews are a good thing.
NOT D!!! TRUST

It can be inferred that the topic sentence is: "A reason I believe in teen curfews is my concern for teens' safety." (Option C)

A topic sentence is simply a sentence that captures the central idea of the text.

In this case, the other parts of the text are in support of the initial sentence that relates to the safety of teen and how curfew can help to achieve that.

Hence, it is correct to state that  the topic sentence is: "A reason I believe in teen curfews is my concern for teens' safety."

end to end. I folded my arms upon my bosom, and roamed
easily to and fro. The police were thoroughly satisfied and
prepared to depart.

excerpt from Frankenstein
by Mary Shelly

Six years have passed since I resolved on my present undertaking. I can, even now, remember the hour from which I dedicated myself to this great enterprise. I commenced by inuring my body to hardship. I accompanied the whale-fishers on several expeditions to the North Sea; I voluntarily endured cold, famine, thirst, and want of sleep; I often worked harder than the common sailors during the day and devoted my nights to the study of mathematics, the theory of medicine, and those branches of physical science from which a naval adventurer might derive the greatest practical advantage. Twice I actually hired myself as an under-mate in a Greenland whaler, and acquitted myself to admiration. I must own I felt a little proud when my captain offered me the second dignity in the vessel and entreated me to remain with the greatest earnestness, so valuable did he consider my services.

“And when she breathed, something light and sad—no, not sad, exactly— something gentle seemed to move in her bosom.”

“They were odd, silent, nearly all old, and from the way they stared they looked as though they'd just come from dark little rooms or even—even cupboards!”

“She had become really quite expert, she thought, at listening as though she didn't listen, at sitting in other people's lives just for a minute while they talked round her.”

the eye like the eye of faith believes.
The seen, the known

illusive flesh of light
that was not, was, forever is.

O light beheld as through refracting tears.
Here is the aura of that world
each of us has lost.
Here is the shadow of its joy.

When my sisters and I cared too much about our appearance, my mother would tell us how Trujillo's vanity knew no bounds. How in order to appear taller, his shoes were specially made abroad with built-in heels that added inches to his height. How plumes for his Napoleonic hats were purchased in Paris and shipped in vacuum-packed boxes to the Island. How his uniforms were trimmed with tassels and gold epaulettes and red sashes, pinned with his medals, crisscrossing his chest. How he costumed himself in dress uniforms and ceremonial hats and white gloves—all of this in a tropical country where men wore guayaberas in lieu of suit jackets, short-sleeved shirts worn untucked so the body could be ventilated. My mother could go on and on.
