A:Drouin and O’Neil are both experienced scholars who write about poverty and hunger in the United States.


B:Although both Drouin and O’Neil agree that hunger in the United States has generally declined since the beginning of the 20th century, Drouin’s use of personal stories makes a more interesting and more readable article.


C:Drouin’s reliance on personal stories makes her argument less convincing than O'Neil’s.


D:O’Neil combines testimony from social workers with economic statistics that date back to the 1920s to craft a more convincing argument than the one Drouin offers.

The correct answer is A) Droin and O’Neal are both experienced scholars who write about poverty and hunger in the United States.

The sentence that is not an example of an effective thesis for an essay comparing two texts about hunger in the United States is: Droin and O’Neal are both experienced scholars who write about poverty and hunger in the United States.

That sentence is not a good example of an effective thesis because is too general, too ambiguous. It seems like the title of an interview or a footnote of a photograph. A correct and effective thesis has to be clear, direct, and specific. That is so because when the reader reads the thesis it has to understand the purpose of the research.
