Question 4 • WI-English Language Arts 8 A

Which statement would best serve as a claim for an argument?

Answer

Food labels provide information including ingredients, nutritional information, and calorie counts.

Though the information is sometimes challenging to decode, consumers should take the time to understand food labels.

Allergy information is now available on all food labels, and warnings alert consumers about nuts, dairy, and gluten.

Consumers rarely understand food labels because there are too many measurements cited.

Explanation

A strong claim takes a position that can be supported with reasons and evidence. Choice B argues that consumers should take time to understand food labels, even when the information is difficult to decode. The other choices mainly present facts or generalizations rather than a clear position for an argument.
