Answer 1

In a book review's introduction, the following elements should typically appear:

1. **The student’s thesis statement** - This provides the main argument or perspective on the book that will be explored throughout the review.
2. **Reasoning to support the student’s judgments** - While more detailed reasoning can appear later in the body of the review, a brief mention of the main reasons for the thesis may also be appropriate in the introduction.

The other options, such as textual evidence from the book and claims to support the student’s argument, are generally included in the body of the review rather than in the introduction.

Thus, the correct elements for the introduction are:
- The student’s thesis statement
- Reasoning to support the student’s judgments (briefly, to preview the main points).
