Answer:

See below

Explanation:

I began to panic, wondering what was wrong. Did someone drop a cigarette on some tissue boxes? Was bread left in the bakery oven for too long? Before I had time to contemplate what was wrong, I was overtaken by a swarm of terrified shoppers. Screams rang in my ears as we moved as one to the exit, panicking even as a calm voice over the loudspeaker told us to exit quietly and orderly. I held the one thing I had, a bag of Mrs. Baird's donuts, to my chest, determined not to let them go. I'd pay for them later, but at the moment, the cash register was far from my mind. We spilled out into the parking lot, mother's shrieking in fear and babies crying. A fire truck pulled up to the scene as flames began shooting out of the building, schorching me with their heat. I backpedaled, unable to look away as the supermarket slowly burned to the ground.

Answer:

- by adding a statistic or a quotation.

Explanation:

A counterclaim primarily aims to neglect the previous claim of the author and it is added with the aim to establish both the stands on the topic. The given rebuttal can be made impactful by 'addition of statistical data or quotation' as it will help nullify the counterclaim effectively and establish the validity and credibility of the author's actual claim which will appeal to readers' logic and make them believe in it. A strengthened rebuttal helps establish the author's objectivity and unbiasedness and validates why he favors that specific stand of the topic. Thus, it displays the author's claim to be fairer and justified.
