Question

If your thesis is, "the main character, Anna, has good intentions but makes poor decisions," where should you mention that Anna wants to help her best friend get to work on time?

a) In a paragraph about how she has good intentions
b) In a paragraph about her poor decision-making
c) In the concluding paragraph of the essay
d) In the introductory paragraph of the essay

Answer 1

a) In a paragraph about how she has good intentions. In the paragraph about how Anna has good intentions

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, you should mention that Anna wants to help her best friend get to work on time in the paragraph about how she has good intentions (option a).

When you mention that Anna wants to help her best friend get to work on time in the paragraph about her good intentions, it highlights her positive attributes and shows that she genuinely cares about others.

On the other hand, if you mention this information in the paragraph about her poor decision-making (option b), it may confuse the reader and create a contradiction in the overall message of your thesis.
