Writing question. Please help me urgently Which is the controlling idea of the following topic sentence? The Rolls-Royce is considered by many as the finest car in the world. a)Is considered b)The Rolls-Royce c)By many d)the finest car in the world I know that the letter 'd' is the true answer. But what is the key to define the place of controlling idea of a topic sentence? I think we should try to find out the part that the main event happens. Is it right? For example in this above example the idea why we are going to discuss about this brand of car is that it considered by many the finest car in the world. So this must be the controlling idea . Am I right please if you gave any feed back tell me

I am unsure of the "controlling idea". "The Rolls-Royce" is the topic the sentence and paragraph. "Is considered" I would say is the verb portion. "by many as the finest car in the world" is telling you about the Rolls-Royce. You could also rewrite like this "The Rolls-Royce, the finest car in the world is considered by many (like as to buy or just to look at, or as top choice).
