Answer:

B. While it's true that students with after-school jobs would be affected, more time spent learning would only benefit their future job prospects.

Explanation:

First of all, let's define "counter claim", it refers to a claim that is made to oppose a previous claim. In this case, we want to answer in a polite way the counterclaim that opposes to the extention of the school day. Therefore we want to defend the idea of an extra hour in school. Their argument is that the students with jobs are going to be affected. A direct allusion to that argument is then needed. The chosen answer (B) not only adresses the argument presented in the counterclaim, it does it in a  civil way as it is presented as a logic argument that seeks benefit for everyone. It accepts the idea stablished in the counterclaim as an importan factor but it points out the fact that in a long term it's benefits will be more important than it's cons.

The other options state in a rude way that the counterclaim is wrong, they don't make the effort on trying to undestand their point of view. They use preconceptions of the people against the extra hour.

Rewrite the sentence by correcting the misplaced modifier, squinting modifier, or dangling modifier.
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Correct sentence is: After trimming back the deadwood, the rose bush bloomed beautifully in the spring.

Explanation:

Modifiers are used in a sentence which describe other words. They can be a single word or group of words. But sometimes, some modifiers  are  used incorrectly. These are of mainly three types. Dangling modifiers are errors that are not a part of the sentence. Squinting modifiers makes the meaning of the sentence unclear as one cannot understand the part of the sentence it is describing. A misplaced modifier describes something that is not intended to be described in a sentence. We need fix these type of modifiers by either adding a new word or rearranging the existing construction of words.

In the given sentence, we need to add a dangling modifier "after" to make the meaning of the sentence clear. "After" is describing "trimming back" in the given line.

If your research topic is too broad, you must _____ it.
Bezzdna [24]
My best guess for this question is to find good topic to talk about, and if your topic is too broad it may be hard to find information. So if your topic is too broad you have to do a lot of research, and find information that you thought made sense.
