3. Puritans believed it was by god’s providence they survived
Answer:
B
Explanation:The answer is B because the passage does not really say why tornadoes are dangerous it mostly talks about how they form for example it When warm, humid air near the ground meets cold, dry air from above, a column of the warm air can be drawn up into the clouds. And it is not C because it is not comparing thunder storms to tornadoes, it only says that a tornado can occur during a large thunder storm. And the answer is also not D because it does not say anything about what to do in an event of a tornado.
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.
