2. In what paragraph is the thesis located? Write it down. Since it is a direct sentence from the essay does this make it an explicit or implicit thesis?
Evidence
3. List, define and explain how the following are used to support the thesis: anecdote, antithesis and parallel structure (what I begin with I end with).
