Question

what does an author achieve by giving the reader a challenge in the concluding statement? (1 point)
they provide the reader with a sense of closure.
they reinforce a message to the reader.
they encourage the reader to take a specific action.
they show the reader a wider impact in other areas.

Explanation:

A challenge in the concluding statement is a call - to - action. It is not about providing closure (which is more about ending a narrative neatly), reinforcing a message (which is more about repetition of an idea), or showing a wider impact (which is about scope). A challenge directly asks the reader to do something.

Answer:

They encourage the reader to take a specific action.
