Answer:

A thesis statement clearly identifies the topic being discussed, includes the points discussed in the paper, and is written for a specific audience. Your thesis statement belongs at the end of your first paragraph, also known as your introduction. Use it to generate interest in your topic and encourage your audience to continue reading.Your readers, especially your instructors, want to read writing that engages them. Consequently, you must write thesis statements that are arguable, not factual. Statements of fact seem easy to write about because, well, they are easy to prove. After all, they’re facts. The problem is that you cannot write engaging papers around statements of fact. Such theses prevent you from demonstrating critical thinking and analytical skills, which you want to show your instructor. If you were to write a paper around the next two statements, your writing would probably be quite dull because you would be restating facts that the general public already knows.In order to make your writing interesting, you should develop a thesis statement that is arguable. Sometimes you will be writing to persuade others to see things your way and other times you will simply be giving your strong opinion and laying out your case for it.

Which word helps define rising action?
antoniya [11.8K]

It's part of Freytag's pyramid: exposition ---> rising action ---> climax ---> falling action ---> denouement.

The exposition would be like the introduction and the denouement would be the resolution for sure. I think the climax would be the turning point so the rising action would be the complications. It might be vice versa. I'm not 100% sure which one goes with which.
