AP World History DBQ

Hi,
I am new to this site, and I am currently studying AP World History in High School, and I am curious of a really good thesis for a DBQ.. my teacher hasn't told us what the topic is going to be yet or the time period, and he isn't going to, so that is the hard part.
Now, what I am curious about is, what does a good thesis look like? I have searched google, bing, yahoo, etc, and have not found one site with sample written AP World style DBQ's that are 5 material... if anyone has any pointers for how to set up a thesis and how to grove the documents in, I would appreciate it.
I really want to do good on this in class DBQ, and I really appreciate anyone help on this.

For a thesis in the DBQ, include the date and time and talk about the components of the questions. For example, here's an example of mine I wrote last year for the APWH exam:

Prompt: Using the documents, analyze African actions and reactions in response to the European Scramble for Africa.

However, suspicious of them [Europeans], the Africans rejected the proposal, which led to their future resistances and fear against the Europeans and eventually their enslavement during the period of the Scramble for Africa.

Ok, cool.
Should you list document names in your Thesis or no?
