As a thesis sentence indicates the central idea that you will develop in your paper, you should use only one in the writing.

　　You need not always express a thesis sentence in the paper itself, although you should clearly control the development of any writing that requires one. If you do use such a statement, it had better appear in the very first paragraph. Why? Because it works for the entire writing in the way a topic sentence does in a paragraph. It tells the readers of your paper what the "big idea" is-and also helps you keep on track in developing that idea.

　　Take your writing with the topic "The School Library" for example.

　　From our study of the school library we have got two possible thesis sentences:

　　1. The library is a nice place to study in.

　　2. The library plays an important part in both teaching and students' study and life.

　　III. Making an outline

　　One useful way of planning a piece of writing is a formal outline. An outline is an organized list of related items of ideas. Some people object to outlining. They believe that preparing a formal outline steals valuable time from actual writing and that an outline acts as a brake on the free flow of their ideas. Both objections make some sense. But time spent on an outline will be more than repaid when one begins to write. Also, few of us always think logically. So the final step in organizing your ideas is to make an outline.
