How should information from research be incorporated into an essay?

Avoid summarizing too much
Include anything relevant, no matter how small
Only include information that supports the thesis
Cite sources as often as possible

The correct answer is: Only include information that supports the thesis

When writing an essay, it is important to carefully select the information that is included. Option A, avoiding summarizing too much, can lead to a lack of focus and coherence in the essay, making it difficult for the reader to understand the main arguments. Option B, including anything relevant, no matter how small, can lead to a disorganized and cluttered essay, making it difficult for the reader to follow the main ideas. Option D, citing sources as often as possible, is important but not the most crucial aspect of incorporating research into an essay. Therefore, option C, only including information that supports the thesis, is the best approach to ensure a clear and effective essay. This means carefully selecting and analyzing information to support and strengthen the main argument of the essay, rather than including irrelevant or contradictory information.
