Then suddenly the singer threw up his face, straightened his tubby figure, rose upon his tiptoes, and with wagging head and scarlet cheeks emitted such a howl as the same dog might have given had his growl been checked by a kick from his master.
Every Greek was a trained critic, and as unsparing in his hisses as he was lavish in his applause.
Many a singer far better than this absurd fop had been driven amid execration and abuse from the platform.
<h3>Explain your answer briefly?</h3>
In these three lines, we can see that the tone is a mocking one. In the first sentence, the singer's singing is compared to a dog's howl when being kicked. This implies that the singing was not pleasant in any way. In the second sentence, the author tells us that the audience disliked the singing just as much, being "unsparing in their hisses.
Thus," Finally, we learn that the author refers to the singer as an "absurd fop."

Answer:
A) Those opposed to the idea of composting say it's very messy, but a lot of the food and trash gets thrown on the floor and the ground anyway, so wouldn't composting be a better idea?
Explanation:
Claims are basically arguments. Counterclaims are counter-arguments. If you make a claim, then the counterclaim is the opposition of your claim.
To find the answer that most clearly connects the claim to the counterclaim, you must see which one acknowledges each claim well. It has to talk about how the cafeteria should start composting and also how composting is too messy.
<em>A:</em> This answer talks about how composting can be too messy, but food and trash already gets on the ground, so composting should still happen. It talks about how composting is messy and also starting to compost.
B: This does talk about the claim and counterclaim, but not clearly enough on the claim that the cafeteria should start composting. It doesn't exactly say that the cafeteria should start composting. It just mainly acknowledges the counterclaim.
C: This talks about the claim but not the counterclaim. It does not talk about how composting is messy.
D: This talks about the counterclaim but not the claim. It just talks about how composting is messy and doesn't mention that the cafeteria should start composting.
So, A is the only answer that most clearly connects and acknowledges both the claim -the cafeteria should start composting- and the counterclaim- composting is too messy.
