the statement that takes a position on an issue or controversy
The claim is the main idea of the text. It is what the argumentative text is trying to prove. The claim takes a position on an issue. An example of a claim would be "Students should be given a study hall period during the school day, even if it means reducing the regular class times." This statement takes a position on the topic of study halls in schools. The rest of the options are all other elements of an argumentative text, but they do not describe the claim.
Answer:
The morning after my teacher came she led me into her room and gave me a doll. When I had played with it a little while, Miss Sullivan slowly spelled into my hand the word "d-o-l-l." Running downstairs to my mother I held up my hand and made the letters for doll. I did not know that I was spelling a word or even that words existed; In the days that followed I learned to spell in this uncomprehending way a great many words, among them pin, hat, cup and a few verbs like sit, stand and walk.
