In the given passage, the author's claim isn't supported by strong evidence.
Explanation:
A claim is a statement we make, believing it to be true and correct. It is our main argument. A counterclaim is a statement that represents the opposing argument.
In the given case, the author claims that organizing a film festival every May isn't worth it. They also provide the counterclaim - that the festival should continue, as it is a very popular tourist event and provides a huge source of revenue, which is why local businesses support it.
The evidence that supports this counterargument is the benefit the city and businesses get from the festival. That is objective evidence. The author's claim lacks this sort of evidence. It's based only on their personal feelings - they are bothered by the crowds and mess, while other people may enjoy the festival. It's likely that more people are satisfied than dissatisfied. That is why statement A is correct.
