Why should you include a counterclaim in your argumentative research essay?

English
2 answers:
Nina [5.8K]3 years ago

C. <em>To deeply explore the issue in order to pursue truth  </em>This is the correct option.

To get close to the truth is the aim of an argumentative research essay. To argue means to show the different sides of a claim. If a counterclaim were not included, the final truth would be your claim and this would not allow any further argument. Therefore, research would  be over. Your paper would be the final step in the chain of research and ,probably, your readers would not believe in you. Your readers would believe in a writer who shows a dialetical view, which means a view that has certainties and uncertantities. This is the path to the truth in research.

These options are not right:

A. To criticize a lack of evidence in your opponent's argument  ( The aim of the counterclaim is to develop the argument in itself since research has this characteristic. The point is not to criticise the other researchers)

B. To appeal to the feelings and emotions of your readers  ( An argumentative essay is constructed with logical evidence, not with emotions).

D. To show that you support your opponent's argument ( In fact, it is to show you are able to argue with other researchers. To argue means to find different ways to approach the same issue).

C To deeply explore the issue in order to pursue truth, this is because if you are going to make a proper argument you must acknowledge the other side of the argument, not support it, but acknowledge that it is there.

Which sentence has the simple predicate in parenthesis?
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

She (bought) the book at the store.

Explanation:

A simple predicate is a verb or the action that the subject does. It is the main verb in the sentence that tells us what the subject does or what is the action done.

Among the given options, the sentence that contains or has the simple predicate is the second sentence. Here, the subject "she" buys a book, with the verb "bought" being the main verb and does not contain any emphasis or modifiers in it.

So, <u>the word "bought" within the parenthesis is the simple predicate</u>.

Thus, the correct answer is the second sentence.
