Read the claim and paragraph. (1) homework has more negative effects on children and teenagers than positive effects. (2) hours of schoolwork after the school day is over intrude on students’ family lives, cause unnecessary stress, and take away from time participating in other enriching activities. (3) in addition, studies show that for children below high-school age, there is no relationship between homework and how a student performs on a test, and for high-school students, the relationship is nearly insignificant. (4) although homework might not have a major effect on test scores, some say that it teaches students other important life lessons. (5) however, no conclusive study has shown that homework improves students’ self-discipline, time-management skills, or sense of independence. (6) therefore, schools should seriously reconsider revising homework guidelines, and teachers should only assign homework when it is truly necessary. which sentence contains a rebuttal to the counterclaim in the paragraph? sentence 2 sentence 4 sentence 5 sentence 6

The rebuttal to the counterclaim is actually sentence 5.

Explanation:

This question can be quite tricky if we don't pay close attention to what it really wants. It wants the rebuttal to the counterclaim, not to the claim.

The claim is the main idea being developed. In this case, the claim is that homework does not have practical positive effects on students. It doesn't, for instance, help students perform better on tests.

The counterclaim is an idea that goes against the claim. Sentence 4 offers a counterclaim when it says that some teachers say homework teaches students life lessons. This sentence is contradicting the claim's argument that homework doesn't really help students.

Sentence 5 is going against - rebutting - the counterclaim. It goes back to defending the original claim by saying homework hasn't been shown to improve students' self-discipline, time-management skills, or sense of independence. This is the correct option to answer the question. Sentence 5 is a rebuttal to the counterclaim of the paragraph.
