An opening statement is the main argument or claim that a writer presents at the beginning of an argumentative essay or text. It sets the tone for the rest of the paper and provides a roadmap for the reader to follow. The opening statement should be clear, concise, and persuasive in order to engage the audience and persuade them of the writer's point of view. It is typically supported by logical reasons and relevant evidence throughout the rest of the text.
