(Remember the guidelines for writing good thesis statements that you have studied in this lesson.)
O 1. Lucy's attitudes and behavior are representative of the new white South African and, because they are in direct conflict with David's
attitudes and behavior, point to the humble position that David must learn to accept in the new South African society.
2. Disgrace by J.M. Coetzee is a novel heavy with symbolism. The dogs symbolizing the statuses one holds with society, Lucy symbolizing the
new people of South Africa, David representing the old people of South Africa, David's opera symbolizing his delusion and self-awareness,
and the sheep symbolizing David's compassion as well as his disrespect. In this essay I will dive further into the meaning of these symbols
and their importance to the novel

The thesis statement must be part of the introduction, which is the text element where the basic information of the subject covered will be presented.

In the second answer option, we can see the introduction of the text, followed by the description of what will be covered in the rest of the text. This paragraph also represents the author's opinions based on the interpretation of the text, performed after reading.
