Question 13 • Language Arts 7 B (M12 25/26 S2)

Read this claim.Everyone should own a dog.Which evidence best supports this claim in an argumentative essay?

Answer
A
information about how to take care of a family dog
B
a story about a dog that runs away and how the dog is found
C
a magazine article about how dogs lower people’s blood pressure
D
a newspaper article that lists people’s favorite dog breeds

Explanation

The claim argues that everyone should own a dog, so the strongest evidence gives a reason dogs benefit people. An article explaining that dogs can lower people’s blood pressure supports the claim by showing a health benefit. The other choices focus on dog care, a single story, or people’s preferences rather than a benefit that supports the argument.
