What role should an introduction play in a report?

Most introductions should include a hook and thesis statement. You should definitely include your point of why you're writing about the certain topic. If you're writing an opinion report, you should also include your reasons that you're going to explain. Everyone probably has a different view of how a report should be written, but I think these are the roles an introduction plays in a report.
