Question

Which statement makes the best counterclaim for this claim?

Answer 1

Answer:

A) Financial aid for college students should be based on each  student's financial need.

Explanation:

In order to answer this question, you need to know the definition of a counterclaim. A counterclaim is a claim the is opposite of yours in an argument.

Now, we need to look at choices. B cannot be correct because it is the same statement, only re-worded. C cannot be correct because it is a fact supporting the original claim.  D is also a fact supporting the original claim, so we can rule it out as well. This leaves us with A.

Hope this helps! :-)
