Nope.
well my other choices are

it states your position
it summarizes the information

it ask a question

now it cant be ask a question cause from what I read it answers it. and it cant be summarizing information cause that's a conclusion so I have to go with stating your position
You're right -- it is stating your position.

Didn't we already confirm that as the right answer???
