Both fables and legends are literary genres that are used to narrate stories. Fables are fictional stories whose characters are animals, plants or inanimate objects. Legends, on the other hand, are stories perceived or believed to have happened some time in human history and there is certain doubt if it really happened.
Fables are meant to provide a moral lesson at the end whereas legends are meant to provide human values or qualities.
An example of fable is “The Tortoise and the Hare” by Aesop. The main characters are the tortoise and the hare and a moral message is provided at the end.
An example of a legend is Robin Hood. Even though Robin Hood might have existed, the stories about him might not be all real.

Explanation:
I have been able to place each sentence to the correct term.
An essay that argues on a subject is usually classified to be argumentative writing. The statement claimed that "<em>The soccer field would get more use because the lights would allow night games</em>". This is actually a claim. But an opposition to the claim is known as counterclaim. So, when "<em>Some people think it is not worth the expense</em>", then it is counterclaim.
Then an evidence was given which we see from the poll that was carried out. Evidence usually comes with facts and data which is what the poll provided.
The speaker actually reasoned or thought that their "<em>...town should place lights near the soccer fields so teams can play at night</em>". This is reasoning.
The answer is D. Look in common symbols.
