<span>The given choices are all
relevant to what is asked. They can all be used depending on the type of essay
you are crafting. If you are writing a humorous message, a humorous anecdote as
an ending can be effective. If you’re writing a formal, informative essay, a formal summary of your overall message
would make sense. If you are promoting your own ideals and beliefs, you can
either ask the reader to take some kind of action or end on a note that's likely to stick
in the reader's mind. There is no definite answer here since it would
largely depend on your essay type. </span>
Thesis definition: a statement or theory that is put forward as a premise to be maintained or proved
So,
Without having a recognizable thesis, your reader will not fully understand what point you are trying to get across. Furthermore, your writing will seem to have no meaning or purpose, and will not inform the reader. To clarify, if you do not have a recognizable thesis, your writing would be pointless.
