The most appropriate thesis sentence would be: "As we got older our lives went in different directions, but we still keep up on social media" (D).
In a good thesis sentence, your reader should:
- identify a key question or idea,
- be able to understand how you are going to develop this idea in the paper,
- and be given a hint of what your conclusion will be.
This sentence (D) is raising a key question: how did the friendship evolve as you got older? It is also providing a direction regarding the way you are going to approach the development (chronologically). Finally, it mentions the conclusion, or the answer to the question, in a few words: "we still keep up on social media."
C) To persuade readers that the cause of the revolution was right.
B. Comparison
Comparison is looking at the similarities between two things.
In terms of structure, the poems are very different. The haiku is only three lines long and discusses a single moment in time; “Digging” is much longer, has many stanzas, and jumps between time periods. There are some ways in which the poems are similar, however. For example, the speakers of both poems discuss how their writing is related to and inspired by farming or gardening.
