First sentence: Why this is the first line? This paragraph is the first sentence because it introduces the main topic of ancient Greek philosophy. It gives a broad overview of its importance without going into details. This follows the rule of Topic Sentence. Why other lines are not chosen? The other paragraphs are not chosen because they do not stand alone. For example, Paragraph 2 starts with 'It' which is a pronoun, so it needs more context. Paragraph 3 mentions philosophers but does not introduce the main topic. Paragraph 4 talks about the legacy but does not start the discussion.

Concluding sentence: Why this is the last line? This paragraph is the last sentence because it wraps up the discussion about ancient Greek philosophy. It shows how the topic is still important today. This follows the Conclusive Words rule.
