[1] keeping my mind on my writing is not easy when i stay at my grandmother's ocean-side cottage. [2] just about the time that i am going along pretty well, i glance out the window and see two huge bald eagles swooping and tumbling in a spectacular aerial display. [3] naturally, i have to leave my desk and rush to the doorway to watch the performance as long as it lasts. [4] then, as if a conspiracy were trying to keep me from working, two otters poke their shiny heads out of the water and hang there motionless. [5] they watch to see what i am doing. [6] as soon as i return to my desk, seagulls wheel into my window view and screech as they search for scraps of food. [7] within minutes, this confusion of sounds stirs my aging st. bernard out of a deep sleep, and he hauls his massive, lumbering body over to be petted. [8] mickey, my cat, can't stand to see any partiality, so he is soon pacing back and forth across my ankles. [9] as i wiggle my bare toes to tease mickey, i realize that my legs have become stiff. [10] i remember that i have not had my daily ride. [11] so, i slip on my sandals, step out the door, spring onto my bike, and pedal off down the beach. [12] meanwhile, the composition in my typewriter sits and grows colder. does the paragraph support the topic sentence? that is, do all of the following sentences develop the idea of the topic sentence?

On november 17, 1968, football fans across the united states sat glued to their televisions. a close game between two top teams—the new york jets and the oakland raiders—was being broadcast. when the jets pulled ahead with only fifty seconds remaining, viewers went wild. but then, just as the raiders were bringing the ball across midfield, the game disappeared from the screen! in its place, a previously scheduled children's movie, heidi, started playing. callers flooded the tv network's phone lines, but it was too late. the raiders scored two touchdowns in the very final moments—touchdowns that were unseen by all but west coast viewers. as a result of the interrupted event, dubbed "the heidi game," television networks began delaying their regularly scheduled programs until football games had ended.
