A opening sentence that will tell about what the rest of the paragraph is about, a body that will describe what is happening or the issues and a closing to wrap it all up with out any gaps.
or the listeners will understand complete and listen attentively and be entertained, that's a good paragraph too.

Writing a well-written paragraph depends on the form of paper.For example,lets say that you're sticking with a five paragraph essay.The first sentence should consist of an broad statement to assist you in further paragraphs.Key words that can be used in the first sentence are several and numerous.
Here is an example of a topic sentence on players in the N.F.L
"There are numerous key players in the N.F.L."
The rest of the first paragraph should consist of sentences that can be used to start other paragraphs.THERE SHOULD BE NO QUESTIONS INCLUDED IN THE FIRST PARAGRAPH!!!!!!
The next few paragraphs can be considered the meat or the body of the essay.They should consist on at least three sentences in the first paragraph.The first paragraph in the body as well as the others should start with an transition word.
Examples of transition words are: first of all,equally important,finally,in conclusion,last but not least,and in addition to.
THE BODY PARAGRAPHS SHOULD ALWAYS BE DIRECTED TOWARD THE TOPIC.
Of course the conclusion should sum up the paper and include a transition word.Common transition words for the conclusion are in conclusion,finally,and to sum up.

3. Proper Spell-check
4. Proper punctuation
5. No repetitions.
6. Use of Passive Voice to minimum.
