Explanation:
The thesis statement expresses a position on the subject of the text and that answers the question that, as an author, you work on your writing. In other words, it is the position that is defended through arguments to persuade or convince the reader.
The argumentative body constitutes the argumentation itself: the contribution of all kinds of reasoning that allows the author to convince the addressee. These reasons that the author uses to support his thesis are called arguments and with them the author intends to cause the receiver to adhere in some way to his thesis. This adherence can be sometimes intellectual and other times sentimental. Thus, we distinguish rational arguments and affective arguments.
In this case, the option that best supports the thesis statement is option D.
A "working title" is a title by which an author or a movie director
can refer to his work in progress, with the understanding that they
don't intend for that to be the title of the final product, and that
it'll definitely change before it goes out to the public.
That way, they don't have to keep calling it "the book I'm writing" or
"the movie I'm working on". Instead, they can talk about "Cover to Cover"
or "Thirty Frames a Second", even though those are crummy titles.
