First sentence: Why this is the first line? This paragraph is the first sentence because it introduces the main topic of the festival's planning. It sets the stage for what comes next by explaining the initial steps needed for the festival. This follows the rule of Topic Sentence, as it gives a broad overview of the planning process. Why other lines are not chosen? The other paragraphs are not chosen because they do not stand alone as the first sentence. For example, Paragraph 2 starts with "The selection" which makes it dependent on prior context. Paragraph 3 starts with "Contracts are then negotiated" which also assumes prior steps. Paragraph 4 starts with "Once the lineup is confirmed" which indicates a sequence that cannot be first. Paragraph 5 starts with "Final preparations include" which also assumes earlier steps.

Concluding sentence: Why this is the last line? This paragraph is the last sentence because it wraps up the planning process. It talks about the final steps needed to ensure the event is successful. This follows the rule of Topic Closure, as it reflects the overall theme of preparing for the festival.
