Answer: Jahren is a biologist who has a soft spot for leaves, trees and other life giving plant. In Jahren's prologue, she answered people who wanted to know why she didn't study the ocean though she lives in Hawaii. Jahren is concerned about the fate of trees and plants in the world. She believes that a lot of tree are being fell without adequately replacement and that this affects nature.
According to her, each plant or tree that is felled, is an unnecessary death and she doesn't care whether the plants were lacking in one vitamin or whether the plant is big or small. She believes that the first vital step to becoming a scientist is to care, and not necessarily by ones knowledge of biology, physics, or chemistry.

Explanation:
The correct answer is B) The counterclaim is supported by strong evidence.
Even if the claim is valid (which excludes option A), it does not offer other evidence than the author's perception that crowds disturb the city and looks for the audience to agree on that. This lack of strong evidence supporting the author's claim also invalidates option C.
On the other hand, there is a counterclaim (excluding option D) that actually offers strong evidence supporting it. The fact that the festival attracts lots of tourists and generates revenue for the city, including the local businesses that support the festival, is strong evidence that supports the claim that the festival should be maintained.
So the only correct answer is option B.
