Select the correct text in the passage.
In this argument in favor of recycling, which sentence introduces the counterargument?
By recycling and reusing the resources we have, we can preserve what untouched natural resources we have while extending the life of the resources we are currently using.
Admittedly, we cannot reuse or recycle all of the materials we use in our daily lives. My opponent would use this limitation of our ability to recycle to counter my points about the materials we can recycle.
However, this is not an “all or nothing” scenario.
We should reuse and recycle the materials that we can and try our best not to purchase materials and products that can’t be reused or recycled. By doing our part and encouraging others to do their part, we can increase our chances of conserving our remaining natural and manmade resources over time.

Respuesta :

The correct answer is "Admittedly, we cannot reuse or recycle all of the materials we use in our daily lives"

Explanation:

A counterclaim always states the opposite point of view of the main claim. Also, counterclaims are often used in speeches or texts to explain opposite points of view and reinforce the claim by disproving counterclaims.

This implies the counterclaim should attack or disprove recycling. According to this, the sentence in blue that introduces the counterclaim is "Admittedly, we cannot reuse or recycle all of the materials we use in our daily lives" because those who oppose recycling often claim not all materials can be recycled, and therefore this is a counterclaim or opposite point of view. Additionally, after the claim, the author disproves this by mentioning "We should reuse and recycle the materials that we can and try our best not to purchase materials and products that can’t be reused or recycled."

Answer:

(B) Admittedly, we cannot reuse or recycle all of the materials we use in our daily lives.
