The two correct answers for characteristics of a strong concluding statement are:

  1. refers back to key words, metaphors, questions, or ideas from the introduction

  2. shares a relevant quotation or statistic about the topic

These elements help to encapsulate the main ideas and provide a strong finish to the argument or discussion. Restating the thesis verbatim, including personal opinions or anecdotes, and introducing new topics are generally less effective for a strong conclusion.
