THE CORRECT ANSWER IS B

Explanation:

Your thesis statement should be one to two sentences. Your thesis statement should clearly present the main idea of your essay and make some kind of assertion (even if that assertion is about bringing two sides together). Your thesis should not make an “announcement” about what your essay will cover.    it must be concise and well-written.

Your thesis goes in the introductory paragraph. Don't hide it; make it clearly asserted at the beginning of your paper.

Your thesis must make an argument. It is the road map to the argument you will subsequently develop in your paper.
