First sentence: Why this is the first line? This paragraph is the first sentence because it introduces the main topic of the text. It tells us about the start of the journey to learn guitar. It does not refer to any previous information, so it stands alone. 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 "Initially," which is a conjunction. Paragraph 3 uses "Once," which also makes it dependent. Paragraph 4 starts with "After," which is another conjunction. Paragraph 5 starts with "Eventually," which is also a conjunction. All these words show that they need more context to make sense.

Concluding sentence: Why this is the last line? This paragraph is the last sentence because it wraps up the story. It shows the final achievement of mastering a song. It reflects the overall theme of the journey in learning guitar.
