The first sentence in a news article is the summary sentence, sometimes called the "lead," which is comparable to a topic sentence. It tells what the article will be about in the most concise terms. Everything else in the article adds details to the story as expressed in that sentence. It should include the answers to most of the questions who, what, where, why, and when.
Examples:
A story about a volcano could have the headline
- "Thousands flee city as volcano erupts"
and the lead sentence
- Residents of (the city) are evacuating as lava and ash continue to pour from (the named volcano).
