An introduction primarily helps readers identify the claim or central idea of the text. It sets the stage for what the author will discuss, presents the main argument or topic, and often outlines the structure or purpose of the piece. While it may hint at some evidence or briefly mention counterclaims, its primary role is to establish the context and direction of the argument or discussion that will follow.
