When writing an argument, what must you do with the counterargument in order to strengthen your claim?

OpenStudy (elonasushchik):

Briefly state that there is a counterargument without exploring what it is Present the counterargument in a negative light and avoid positive facts Ignore the counterargument so the reader will not become distracted. Fairly state the counterargument to demonstrate you have researched it

@Thesmarterone

OpenStudy (elonasushchik):

I think its A

OpenStudy (anonymous):

why do you think it's A?

OpenStudy (elonasushchik):

because it strengthens the claim

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Depending on what your topic is....you need a few reasons why you think that is a good claim because that will be evidence that helps support your claim.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

^

OpenStudy (elonasushchik):

so i am correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you think you're correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Your being so confusing shifu X'D

OpenStudy (elonasushchik):

I think i am

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am positive you are too :D

OpenStudy (elonasushchik):

kk shifu

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't think it is A :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's A because you wouldn't do B, and you wouldn't ignore the counterargument, and D makes sense too so...Hmmm...now that i think about it D sounds correct too

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Because you even said "Depending on what your topic is....you need a few reasons why you think that is a good claim because that will be evidence that helps support your claim." So it can't be A because it says "Briefly state that there is a counterargument ***without exploring what it is***" XD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so, saying this we might infer the answer is D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay I thought so...but A made sense as well soo... @ElonaSushchik your answer is D :)

OpenStudy (elonasushchik):

okay...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:) I am gonna feel SO bad if I am wrong now Lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:P

OpenStudy (elonasushchik):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (elonasushchik):
