Read the sentence from "PRO/CON: Binge-watching."

"One survey found that just over 45 percent of binge-watchers had stayed awake all night to binge-watch a show."

What is most likely the author's purpose for including this sentence?

Question 9 options:

to appeal to readers' feelings and persuade them to agree with the claim that binge-watching is harmful


to offer evidence that binge-watching causes physical health problems, which shows that it's harmful


to support the idea that the author believes in the importance of asking people about binge-watching
