Explanation:

To build a strong introductory paragraph, we start with a general statement about the importance of sunscreen ("Sunscreen can save lives."), then explain why it's necessary ("Because overexposure to the sun can cause skin cancer, sunscreen is a necessity for anyone who enjoys being outside."), and finally present the problem of high cost and the proposed solution ("However, the high price of sunscreen means that individuals often don't use it as much as they should. To help protect residents from the sun, local governments should provide free sunscreen at public pools and beaches."). Wait, but we need three pieces. Let's re - evaluate. A strong intro should have a hook, background, and thesis. "Sunscreen can save lives." (hook) → "Because overexposure to the sun can cause skin cancer, sunscreen is a necessity for anyone who enjoys being outside." (background) → "To help protect residents from the sun, local governments should provide free sunscreen at public pools and beaches." (thesis). The sentence about high cost is a good point but if we use three, these three flow well. So the order is: 1. Sunscreen can save lives. 2. Because overexposure to the sun can cause skin cancer, sunscreen is a necessity for anyone who enjoys being outside. 3. To help protect residents from the sun, local governments should provide free sunscreen at public pools and beaches.

Answer:

Sunscreen can save lives. Because overexposure to the sun can cause skin cancer, sunscreen is a necessity for anyone who enjoys being outside. To help protect residents from the sun, local governments should provide free sunscreen at public pools and beaches.
