The statement that best evaluates an author's use of support is:

D. The author fails to provide adequate evidence to convince the audience that his claims are correct.

Explanation:

When we talk of support in writing, we mean the evidence an author provides concerning his claims. In other words, if an author is arguing in favor or contrary to an opinion, he needs to give readers evidence that supports his arguments, that makes his opinion stronger. He needs to build a foundation upon which he can build his perspective. When an author fails to provide adequate evidence, readers will not be convinced. His affirmations will sound empty, void of content and truth. Having that explanation in mind, we see that letter D is the one that evaluates an author's use of support:

The author fails to provide adequate evidence to convince the audience that his claims are correct.
