The correct answer is C. They place great importance on property ownership

Explanation:

The purpose of the captain and the company was to buy or own the island; this idea is expressed in "its mission to purchase from the natives a base from which to conduct company trade." This shows the captain and its people believed owning the island was important, as well as, using the resources and location of this for trade.

According to this, it can be concluded the captain and the company place great importance on property ownership. Moreover, this belief contrasts the ones of the natives in the excerpt because they accept that the company and the captain establish on the island but do not understand the company is now the owner of the island.

Which pair of words includes the basic elements of argumentation? (5 points)
EastWind [94]

Answer:

B). Claim and Counterargument.

Explanation:

An argument is defined as the key statement around which an entire literary paper or essay is surrounded and attempts to convince the readers to believe in it with logic and sufficient evidence. An effective argument consists of a variety of significant elements but as per the question, the two most basic and important elements of an argument would be a 'claim and counterclaim'.

<u>The claim functions to emphasize a specific idea or point and its validity before the readers</u> and <u>the counterclaim however attempt to negate or deny the key statement(central claim) that is further denied through evidence in support of the actual argument.</u> Including counterclaim is significant as it reflects the objective approach and enhances the credibility of the work as it mirrors that the speaker/author is aware of multiple dimensions/perspectives of the claim. Therefore, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer.
