Answer:
Argumentative writing → An essay argues that light on the field would add to the quality of life in the community.
Claim → The soccer field would get more use because the lights would allow night games.
Counterclaim → Some people think it is not worth the expense
Evidence → According to a poll, more than one third of the citizens approve the cost of adding lights to the soccer field
Reasoning → Our town should place lights near the soccer fields so teams can play at night.
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.
D. object of a preposition is the correct answer.
I think compound because there were no dependent/independent clauses.
I'd say D. All of the above
