Answer:

Find the supporting evidence the author provides.

Explanation:

An argumentative writing can be defined as an expression of a writer's position (stance) on a subject matter or topic.

A claim can be defined as a statement that is used by a writer to prove, substantiate or support an argument.

On the other hand, a counterclaim is an assertive statement made to offset, refute or oppose a claim. A counterclaim is considered to be a rebuttal.

Thus, a claim is an assertive statement expressed by a writer to prove that an argument is true or real.

This ultimately implies that, when writers engage in an argument or write an argumentative essay, they make use of a claim to state or express their opinions about the subject matter or topic.

Also, a thesis statement is a brief, concise summary of a claim or main idea stated in a literary work. It is usually written at the conclusion (tail end) of an introduction in an article.

When you analyze the claim made by an author, the next step you should take after identifying the claim is to look or find the supporting evidence that's being provided by the author. This supporting evidence would help you in assessing and determining the credibility of his or her claims. Also, it's used to check whether or not the conclusion drawn from the claims are reliable, logical, and trustworthy.

At night, the slugs lined up on the underside of the boards we placed in the garden. In the morning, like lambs to the slaughter
disa [49]
Like lambs to a slaughter suggests that the slugs (much like the sheep) have no idea that death comes soon, for the slugs either the birds will get them, they get dried out(?), or they risk being found by a human. For the sheep, they’re happy because they have an unlimited supply of food and they’re happy, but they’re being led to their deaths.
