What is the purpose of research-based writing?

  1. To strengthen the writer’s own opinion

  2. To change the reader’s view of an issue

  3. To present both sides of an argument

  4. To introduce new evidence

The correct answer is: To introduce new evidence

Research-based writing serves the purpose of introducing new evidence and information to support and enhance the writer's argument. While it is important to consider and present multiple viewpoints and perspectives in research-based writing, the ultimate goal is not to solely strengthen the writer's opinion or change the reader's view. Rather, the focus is on gathering, organizing, and presenting evidence and data to support a particular argument or claim. Therefore, options A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the primary purpose of research-based writing.
