rong reason for readers to agree with the claim. Ineffective support will not hurt your argument as long as your claim is strong. Information found in charts, graphs, and videos can be used in your argument. You should stop researching as soon as you find two facts to support your claim.

The author provides the following reason as support: Last year, 709 citizens were caught using steroids. 403 were put in jail.

Huang Kroll, spokesperson for the International Olympic Committee, was interviewed during the program. "Using illegal substances to gain an advantage is a huge issue," he explained. "Unless stronger laws are passed—laws that result in prison rather than suspension from competition—the problem will continue to grow." Which choice best describes the reason the author provides? It is effective. It supports the claim clearly and logically. It is irrelevant. It discusses a fact that is off topic and does not support the claim. It is unreliable. It does not give any details to prove that the source can be trusted. It is unverified. It does not cite a source to show where the information was located. Question 5(Multiple Choice Worth 5 points) (MC) An author claims that "Athletes caught using performance-enhancing drugs should be sentenced to prison." The author provides the following reason as support: A cool article in Kid's Sports Magazine says athletes are role models. I agree! It's heartbreaking for kids to learn that our heroes are cheaters.
