When developing a counterclaim, you should A: not make your counterclaim’s evidence closely factual because you should not undermine your central argument. B:interview people who disagree with your argument’s claim in order to understand their opinions. C: thoroughly research the evidence to make sure you understand the facts behind the counterclaim. D: supply personal evidence and experience as to why you disagree with the counterclaim.

Answers

In the process of argumentative writing, or any research, a very important step, aside from creating a claim and collecting the data to support this claim, is the creation of the counterclaim. A counterclaim is literally the way in which a writer contemplates that his argument, or claim, may be wrong, or partially wrong, and this adds veritability and trustworthiness to a research process because it shows that the writer did not just use his/her point of view and research to lay a claim, but considered other options as well and considered the fact that his/her statement may be untrue. What is important to consider, when building a counterclaim, however, it is important to consider all the points established by other writers, researchers or people in general. The correct answer would be C, because when doing research, a writer must consider all the facts, both that support and detract, from the claim in order to make his/her text balanced and not biased.

When developing a counterclaim, you should "C: thoroughly research the evidence to make sure you understand the facts behind the counterclaim" but interviewing people can also be helpful since it gives you realistic arguments.

C --> associative (I'm not quite sure of this one, but I'd rather pick associative than any other property)
D --> associative
