Answered by GPT 3.5
Both examples of introductions serve their purpose of stating the importance of a well-written introduction in informational texts. However, example 1 provides more specific information and guidance on how to structure an introduction. It mentions that the introduction may take the form of a topic sentence and can be a single paragraph or multiple paragraphs in longer texts. This specificity gives the reader a clearer understanding of what to expect in an introduction. Example 2 is more general and simply states that the introduction should state the purpose and preview the rest of the text. Therefore, example 1 is better because it provides more specific and actionable information for the reader.
