Counterarguments strengthen an evaluation by allowing the writer to confidently address flaws or weaknesses. Select one: True False

TRUE

Explanation:

Counterarguments are the possible ways in which an author's arguments will be defied, that is, the possible reasons people might give to try and refute the claim made by the author. By anticipating or predicting such counterarguments, the author is able to see the weaknesses of his own claim and arguments and work to improve them. As a matter of fact, in essay writing, it is good to mention the counterarguments and address them in the essay by showing how or why they are not an obstacle to your claim or, at least, that there are solutions for them. That way, you show readers you have already considered those possibilities and found reasons to stick to your claim.

the correct answer is a "it describes nora and mrs. linde's relationship". opcions b and d are not related to the content of the passage in any way. option c could be appropiate but it does not fully capture the effect of the dialogue, while option a is quite appropiate, since the dialogue not only exemplifies the relationship between the characters, but it also captures the effect in the excerpt. we get to know that mrs linde bosses around and already knows nora.
