A student is writing an argumentative piece. Read the draft of his counterclaim and complete the task that follows
Of course, naysayers will argue that letting students sit where they want at lunch will lead to pure chaos.
“Students who are given freedoms tend to abuse them, and often push limits until they find themselves in trouble” (James 2). Opponents would have you believe that students cannot handle any freedom whatsoever and that it only leads to problems. I believe that students can both enjoy freedoms and be responsible at the same time. While some students will probably run wild with the freedom of sitting wherever they would like at lunch, most will be careful to follow the rules so that the privilege isn’t taken away.

Read the following argument:
High schools ought to consider moving the official start of the day to 9:00 am at the earliest. Currently many students are too sleepy in the early morning to focus on schoolwork. A shift in the hours of operation would allow students to be more alert as they attend to their studies. It would allow them to get critical hours rest in the evenings.
This argumentative paragraph lacks sufficient evidence, and therefore has a weak argument. Which of the following would be the MOST appropriate piece of evidence to support the author's claim?’
Some schools offer “0” hour classes so that students who want to attend class early can engage in learning prior to the regularly scheduled day.
A study from the American Academy of Pediatrics found that most teenagers are getting six to seven hours of sleep a night when in actuality they need eight to ten for optimal functioning of the mind and body.
Many schools have considered a change in making hours earlier so that after school activities do not run so late into the evening.
Most schools currently begin allowing students to enter the building thirty minutes prior to the official start of the school day and provide breakfast if students want to purchase it.
Some schools are considering updating their schedules to match scientific findings.

Read the following passage.
A fieldtrip to Stone Mountain would provide students with unique experiences exploring a variety of activities and attractions. For instance, visitors can ride the famous sky lift to the top of the mountain and hike down afterwards. They can also enjoy a ride on the Stone Mountain Railroad that winds through the grounds. People with a more adventurous spirit can “ride the ducks,” which are 1940’s error trucks that can carry passengers across water. My brother enjoys this experience best of all and often asks to do it twice. At the end of the day, guests can take in the spectacular laser show that lights up the mountain.
Which of the following sentences should be eliminated from the paragraph in order to maintain focus on its central point?
For instance, visitors can ride the famous sky lift to the top of the mountain and hike down afterwards.
