First sentence: Why this is the first line? This paragraph is the first sentence because it introduces the main topic of the text. It clearly states what vegetarians do not eat. This is a general statement that does not need other sentences for context. It does not start with a conjunction or use pronouns. It also does not use the definite article 'the' for defined subjects. Why other lines are not chosen? The other paragraphs are not chosen because they do not meet the criteria for being independent. For example, Paragraph 2 starts with 'This diet,' which refers back to the diet mentioned in the first sentence. Paragraph 3 starts with 'Restaurants,' which is too specific and does not stand alone. Paragraph 4 starts with 'Menus,' which also does not stand alone. Paragraph 5 starts with 'These developments,' which refers back to earlier ideas.

Concluding sentence: Why this is the last line? This paragraph is the last sentence because it wraps up the main ideas of the text. It shows that the changes in menus depend on the efforts of vegetarians. This brings together the earlier points about vegetarian diets and menu changes.
