hello ladies and gentlemen this is mister Guy.   I'm going to talk to you

are very important.  so what we're going to talk about is what makes a good body

examples a good body paragraph that  are well developed.

okay first good body paragraphs have a clear topic sentence

with main points to support the topic sentence

sometimes a body paragraph can have two main points

and sometimes can have three main points either way

there's a topic sentence with two to  three main points

have support an explanation for the main points

words like and, but, so --  all words that

similarly this is similar to and sometimes we show differences

special contrast we use words like in contrast or we say this is different
