Writing correction code

Thesis:
- "A thesis statement is an assertion, not a statement of fact or an observation".
- "A thesis statement is specific rather than vague or general".

Topic sentence:
- "It related the paragraph to the essay's thesis, (...) but it also defines the scope of the paragraph itself".
- "As the thesis statement is the unifying force in the essay, so the topic sentence must be the unifying force in the paragraph".
