Which of these is a good sub-point to support the thesis statement? A. For example, the two characters are very nice to each oth
er, even though they really hate each other. B. Irony is another element that builds suspense in this story. C. We see this when the author uses words like “staccato” and “thud.” D. Both stories represent the horror genre well.
The thesis statement usually appears near the beginning of a paper. It can be the first sentence of an essay, but that often feels like a simplistic, unexciting beginning. It more frequently appears at or near the end of the first paragraph or two.
