Which of the following is true about a thesis statement? a. it states the main idea of a paragraph and should support the essay’s main idea. b. it must concisely state the main idea of the essay. c. it only needs to be supported in the first and last paragraph. d. it is part of the planning stage and is eliminated during the first draft stage.

B, while it is used heavily in the planning and draft stages it should neatly summarise the essays main point.

B. It must concisely state the main idea of the essay.

The thesis statement is the main idea of the entire essay. It should be in the introduction paragraph of the essay to give the reader a clear indication of the author's purpose. Option A is incorrect because it describes a topic sentence, not a thesis statement. Option C is incorrect because the entire essay should support the thesis not just the introduction and conclusion. Option D is also incorrect. You need a working thesis statement for the planning stage. As you plan and write the essay, the thesis statement may need to be revised, but it is always necessary.
