support the thesis 


Thesis statement is the overall summary of the research paper. While all of the necessary information and references materials are in the research paper, the thesis statement hold everything and summarize the gist into a simple sentence. It sort of like a ‘second title’ to and ‘pre-abstract’ the research paper. Writing thesis statements can be confusing and challenging as you are trying to summarize five-page research into a short but meaningful sentence. Thus, it is very important that one know the research well to avoid any misuse of words when doing the thesis statement.
