First sentence: Why this is the first line? This paragraph is the first sentence because it introduces the main topic of the review of antidepressants. It does not refer to any previous information and gives a broad overview of the findings. This follows the rule of Topic Sentence. 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 'The true effectiveness,' which uses 'the' and assumes prior knowledge. Paragraph 3 starts with 'The study authors recommend,' which also uses 'the.' Paragraph 4 starts with 'This was widely opposed,' which uses 'this' and refers back to something not mentioned yet. Paragraph 5 starts with 'It is therefore recommended,' which uses 'it' and assumes prior context.

Concluding sentence: Why this is the last line? This paragraph is the last sentence because it gives a final recommendation based on the previous discussions. It wraps up the topic by suggesting a way to approach the use of antidepressants. This follows the Summary Style rule, as it brings together the earlier points.
