The correct option that describes when an author emphasizes evidence is:
"The author gives special importance to that evidence."
To determine this answer, we need to understand what it means to "emphasize evidence." When an author emphasizes evidence, it means that they are highlighting or giving special importance to a specific piece or pieces of evidence to support their idea or argument.
To arrive at this answer, we can eliminate the other options:
- "The author includes facts to support an idea." This option is too broad and does not specifically address the emphasis on certain evidence.
- "The author shares ideas supported by reasons." While this option mentions reasons, it does not specifically focus on the emphasis on evidence.
- "The author omits or leaves out certain evidence." This option is the opposite of emphasizing evidence as it suggests that the author is intentionally not including certain evidence.
Therefore, the option "The author gives special importance to that evidence" is the correct answer as it accurately reflects the idea of emphasizing evidence.
