A thesis should make an assertion that will be proven in the essay. 

Facts will back up the thesis statement. A question is a weaker mode of writing. The introduction must capture the audience's attention. 

The correct option is "capture the audience's attention". The goal of a thesis statement is to identify the topic that the essay will discuss. The thesis statement is very useful to catch reader's attention towards the topic so that they continue reading the essay.

The thesis statement is usually included in the introductory paragraph of an essay. Thesis statements are not statements of facts.
