Sections 2.2 and 2.3

Section 2.2
This part of the chapter goes over Thesis statements, a topic not used much in our last two papers but one that is very prominent in college writing. They explain the Thesis statement as the answer to your question you are posing for or against your topic. The thesis is both a tool to change your reader's view of the subject, while the thesis statement is the overall expression of what you want to change their view to side with. Thereafter tips are given to help you change their views, and after that they go over what they call a "surprising reversal" and other techniques to build tension, which in this context is used to describe being brought towards new ideas.Lastly is a section devoted to developing Thesis statements.
Section 2.3
Unlike the last two papers the majority of our future papers in college and more specifically this class will be closed-form prose. in this they explain the paper should be opened with an introduction to the problem, not the thesis, which is essentially the view we want them to reach, which would be mroe suited as a conclusion or stepping blocks to help the reader know where we are trying to take their thought process to. The rest of the chapter is devoted to learning how to better create an introduction that both leads to the thesis and lures the readers in.
