Answer: C)

Explanation:

An argument is often called a thesis statement or a claim in writing and by that, an argument is representing the main idea of the literary text.

The author is the one who is giving us the backed up evidence and reasons of an argument that are willing to support the main idea of it and that is why readers need to identify the author's claim.

It is also important for a better understanding of the main point of the literary text.

A claim can also express a fact rather than support of a chosen side of an argument and that is why sometimes it cannot tell you what side the author is taking (answer a) or what the author is trying to convince the readers (answer b).

Answer:

Professions develop ethical standards and codes for a number of reasons. First, ethical standards help reassure the public, particularly law-makers, that the field can regulate itself and does not need others outside of the profession to make laws to govern the practice of that profession in order to protect the public's interests. Ethical standards offer the public reassurance in general that a profession is standardized and that they can expect to be treated ethically according to set criteria. This improves people's perception of and trust in the profession and consequently increases business. To put it simply, ethical standards increase the professionalism of the profession.
