You should map out what you are going to write about in your body paragraphs (pre-writing, outline, four-square). What are the main points in each paragraph that could help you to form the statement? Once you have that, it should make writing the thesis statement a bit easier. If this is just a general overview, you could write something like, "Tchaikovsky's composition was shaped by many events that occurred early in life, during his adult life, and long after he passed away." Again, it would largely depend on what you want your reader to know about the paragraphs they are about to read.
This question is incomplete; here´s the complete question.

Why does the author describe the extent to which the narrator is puzzled by Mr. Abe’s collecting?
A. To give insight into the narrator’s culture
B. To explain the narrator’s relationship with Mr. Abe
C. To establish the narrator as unreliable.
D. To make the narrator’s later shift in understanding more significant
Answer: D. To make the narrator’s later shift in understanding more significant
Explanation:
At first, the narrator highlights how much he´s intrigued about why would Mr. Abe keep collecting and polishing abalone shells since his front porch was practically full of them already. This initial mystery becomes more significant when the narrator finds an abalone shell, understands the reason for that practice, and starts a collection of his own.
A compound sentence is made up of two or more simple sentences joined with a conjunction.
Complex sentences must include at least one dependent clause introduced by a subordinating conjunction or a relative pronoun and an independent clause.
A compound-complex sentence has one complex sentence joined to a simple sentence with a conjunction.
Therefore, the sentence, "because our favorite restaurant was closed, we decided to cook dinner at home." is a complex sentence. This is the correct answer because the dependent clause, "because our favorite restaurant was closed" was introduced by the subordinating conjunction, "because". It also has an independent clause, "we decided to cook dinner at home."
The second option because the purpose of a public service announcement is to raise awareness on an important issue.
