First sentence: Why this is the first line? This paragraph is the first line because it introduces the main idea of the text. It shows that the first draft is done, but more work is needed. This is a general statement that does not need other sentences for context. It does not start with a conjunction or use pronouns. Why other lines are not chosen? Paragraph 2 starts with 'The next step,' which needs context from a previous sentence. Paragraph 3 starts with 'Start this,' which also needs context. Paragraph 4 starts with 'In fact,' which shows it is not independent. Paragraph 5 starts with 'You can revise,' which uses a pronoun that refers back to the first draft.

Concluding sentence: Why this is the last line? This paragraph is the last line because it wraps up the ideas about revising. It shows that you can work on your paper in parts, which is a good way to finish.
