Learning Task 2: Read the paragraph below. Identify the topic sentence and supporting details used in the paragraph.
1. People in my family love our dog Punch. However, I have several reasons for wanting to get rid of Punch. First of all, he knows I don't like him. Sometimes he gives me an evil look and curls his top lip back to show me his teeth. The message is clearly," Someday I'm going to bite you." Another reason to get rid of Punch is he sheds everywhere. Every surface in our house is covered with Punch hair. I spend more time brushing it off my clothes than I do mowing the lawn. Last of all, Punch is an early riser, while (on weekends) I am not. He will start barking and whining to go outside at 7 a.m., and it's my job to take care of him. When I told my family that I had a list of good reasons for getting rid of Punch, they said they would make up a list of reasons to get rid of me.

2. Being a celebrity is often difficult. First of all, celebrities have to look almost perfect all the time. There's always a photographer ready to take an unflattering picture of a famous person looking dumpy in old clothes. Celebrities also sacrifice their private lives. Their personal struggles, divorces, or family tragedies all end up as front-page news. Last, and most frightening of all, celebrities are in constant danger of the wrong kind of attention. Threatening letters and even physical attacks from crazy fans are things a celebrity must contend with.

3. People lie for different reasons. One common reason is to avoid hurting someone's feelings. For example, a friend might ask, "Do you like my new haircut?" If you think it's ugly, you might still answer, -"Yes." Another common reason for lying is to avoid a fight. Say a friend angers you and then asks, -"Are you upset with me?" You might answer,"No", to avoid an argument. People also lie so that they 'll fit in, as when you listen to a boring person and politely say, "That's interesting." In addition, people lie to avoid spending more time with someone. For instance, you might lie, -" I have to go now."
