Patterns of Paragraph Development: Exemplification
Activity 1
Identify the topic sentence and the type of exemplification used in the
following:
1. Kindness is being generous with others, giving your time, money, and
talent to support those who are in need. Performing random acts of
kindness can help someone to see the good in the world. As you spread
joy and happiness, you will help others experience the good during
difficult times.
2. Exceptional people live with a sense of inner elegance and are graceful
even amidst a challenge. They are able to handle themselves in a noble
and ethical manner. They hold good posture, their energy has a mystery,
softness, strength and cleverness to it. They are vulnerable yet self-
assured.
3. Kindness is a genuine love and care for others. It is being
compassionate, which means to really be there for someone, listening
intently to their suffering or just sitting with them and silently
supporting them. Such compassion involves a deep concern for the
welfare of others.
4. Every time Dad goes to the grocery store, he does these acts of kindness
consistently. He would add some items which he would give the old
woman outside. Not only the old woman whom he made has eaten but
the street children who pass by.

Topic Sentence:
Examples:
Now is a good time as any to reach out to those who may have had a
brief, albeit powerful impact on the way we live our lives. Spreading joy and
saying thank you is so important, especially as many of us shelter-in-place and
limit social interactions during the COVID-19 pandemic.
During a time of uncertainty and isolation, reaching out to loved ones,
family, friends, and acquaintances can mean more than you will ever know.
When someone has an impact on your life, a simple ‘thank you’ can be
extraordinary. This time can inspire you to reach out to others and let them
know how they have been influential in your life and that they are not alone.
Spread some joy to make others smile and brighten their day with
random acts of kindness. Ren Lenhof, July 3, 2020
