Answer:

C.is not engaging or imaginative

Explanation:

Starting an essay with a definition isn't imaginative because it's been done too many times over and isn't engaging because,well when was the last time anyone has cracked open the dictionary and said,"Hey I found this really interesting definition today!" never. It's just not a very professional way to start an essay and many English teachers will agree.

Question 2
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

B. In the introduction paragraph

Explanation:

A thesis statement focuses your ideas into <em>one or two sentences</em>. It should present the topic of your paper and also make a comment about your position in relation to the topic. Your thesis statement should tell your reader what the paper is about and also help guide your writing and keep your argument focused. For example, with an informative essay, you should compose an informative thesis (rather than argumentative). You want to declare your intentions in this essay and guide the reader to the conclusion that you reach. A persuasive thesis usually contains an opinion and the reason why your opinion is true.
