Part 4: Writing an Argumentative Paragraph about an Informational Text

Question 1 • [HSPE2] PE Sem 4 (26-27)

Which statement provides the most effective evidence for the claim and reason?

Answer

“In the eighteenth century Josiah Wedgwood had made some of the most expensive stoneware ceramics—in jasper and basalt—in Britain.”

“A tea set [is] made up of three pieces of red-brown stoneware; a smallish teapot about 14 centimetres (6 inches) high with a short straight spout, a sugar bowl and a milk jug.”

“Tea sets became an essential part of the fashionable household, while less costly versions in pottery . . . spread through society.”

Explanation

Choice C most effectively supports a claim about tea sets becoming widely used or important. It states that tea sets became essential in fashionable households and that less costly pottery versions spread through society, giving evidence of both their popularity and broader reach. Choice A focuses on expensive ceramics, while B only describes the parts of one tea set.
