First sentence: Why this is the first line? This paragraph is the first sentence because it introduces the main topic. It gives a clear starting point about Sue Coppard's job in 1971. It does not need any other sentence for context. This follows the rule of Topic Sentence. Why other lines are not chosen? The other paragraphs are not independent. For example, Paragraph 2 starts with 'While', which is a conjunction. Paragraph 3 starts with 'So', which is also a conjunction. Paragraph 4 uses 'she', which is a pronoun that refers back to Sue. Paragraph 5 starts with 'Afterwards', which is a transitional word. All these reasons make them not independent.

Concluding sentence: Why this is the last line? This paragraph is the last sentence because it wraps up the story. It gives a final thought about Sue and the farm managers. It shows the conclusion of her experience helping on the farm. This follows the Conclusive Words rule.
