Question

Select the correct answer. Which thesis statement should be included to effectively introduce the claim? A. Looking for immediate feedback generated from clothing choices or social media can hinder a person's ability to build personal confidence and have a sense of self-worth. B. As brain science continues to research how technology affects people, it will become clearer that technology harms our personal growth. C. Social media is the only reason that young people copy the ever-changing fashion trends of others and struggle to develop personal confidence in their own choices. D. Young people need to put away their phones and choose to participate in other activities that keep them away from technology. E. Social media should be used as a platform to express individuality.

Answer 1

Choice E appears to be the best answer as it allows for an expansive essay that can focus on both positive and negative aspects of social media. The other choices would only encourage too much opinion or one-sided arguments, which would prevent the essay from developing into a thorough analysis.
