Question 5 • English Language Arts 10
An effective claim states a position that others could reasonably agree or disagree with, and it can be supported through reasoning and evidence. Choice D, “a clear statement that can be argued in favor of or against using reasoning,” describes this. A claim does not have to be impossible to counter, as choice A suggests, and it does not need to include evidence within the statement itself.
