Explanation:

To determine the best description of argument writing, we analyze each option:

• Option A: Argument writing isn't just a personal opinion to persuade action; it needs evidence. Eliminate A.
• Option B: Argument writing involves stating a viewpoint and supporting it with evidence, which matches the definition.
• Option C: Backing a main idea with personal beliefs is not argumentation (needs objective evidence). Eliminate C.
• Option D: Telling the reader what to do is more like a directive, not argument writing. Eliminate D.

Answer:

B. Expressing a point of view on a subject and supporting it with evidence.
