Make a debatable claim about the topic you selected. Remember, a claim is your personal point of view, belief, or opinion about a topic.
Next, research the issue. There are many sources you can use, including the internet, the library, and newspapers. Be sure to research your topic thoroughly so that you can use the evidence you found to support your claim.
In the table, record your topic, claim, and at least three pieces of evidence—such as facts, data, or examples—that support your claim.
(the topic I choose was "Are video games bad for kids?")
Answers
Answer:
Claim: Video games do have negative effects on children.
Evidence:
- "Studies of children exposed to violence have shown that they can become immune or numb to the horror of violence" - University of Utah Healthcare
- Consistent gamers were found to have less gray matter in their brain than non-gamers.
- Video gaming can become addictive - Medical News Today
The demonstration or example of a debatable claim could be as follows:
- "Technology - A gift or a curse."
What is a debatable claim?A claim is characterized as debatable when both its sides(positive and negative) can be argued upon and supported with evidence.
The above-mentioned topic is an example. The students can elect the claim varying upon the topic they are interested to argue about.
The stand on the topic may also vary as some believe that technology is a gift which can be supported through this quote:
"We're changing the World with Technology."_ Bill Gates
While the others may consider it as a bane which can also be backed through quotes like this:
"It has become appallingly obvious that our technology has exceeded our humanity." _ Albert Einstein

Read Micah’s inference about Beowulf.
Beowulf does not fear death.
Read the passage from Beowulf.
If Grendel wins, it will be a gruesome day;
he will glut himself on the Geats in the war-hall,
swoop without fear on that flower of manhood
as on others before. Then my face won’t be there
to be covered in death: he will carry me away
as he goes to ground, gorged and bloodied;
he will run gloating with my raw corpse
and feed on it alone, in a cruel frenzy,
fouling his moor-nest. No need then
to lament for long or lay out my body:
if the battle takes me, send back
this breast-webbing that Weland fashioned
and Hrethel gave me, to Lord Hygelac.
Fate goes ever as fate must."
Which sentence or phrase from the passage most likely helped Micah make his inference?Which excerpt from the modern translation of Beowulf most strongly reflects the half-line style of Old English poetry?
Answers
Answer:
- Fate goes ever as fate must.
- "will go and ask him about your coming here, then hurry back."
Explanation:
The phrase 'fate goes ...must' most aptly assists Micah in making his deduction regarding Beowulf. It shows that he now understands that destiny always goes its own way and therefore, he concludes that Beowulf has no dread of being died. He thinks upon the consequences of Grendel winning the battle and thus, he makes his decision.
The excerpt 'will go and ask him...back' from Beowulf's modern translation steadily throws light upon that half-line pattern employed in Old English poetry. This reflects that old style of English poetry divided a line into two-halves with two emphasized syllables and employed an abrupt pause in the middle of the sentence.
Which sentence or phrase from the passage most likely helped Micah make his inference?
1.it will be a gruesome day;
2.Then my face won’t be there to be covered in death:
3.if the battle takes me, send back this breast-webbing
4.Fate goes ever as fate must.<<<CORRECT>>>Explanation:

They may be mentally ill and therefore unable to apply morality in a way that is generally accepted. They may not understand that what they are doing is bad - or there definition of good and bad does not follow the accepted norm.
They may be religious and follow rules or instructions that contradict the golden rule. As Steven Weinberg said “With or without religion, good people can behave well and bad people can do evil; but for good people to do evil - that takes religion.”.
They may be acting under some duress. For example they may be forced to do something bad with the threat of something bad happening to them if they do not. A similar effect can occur when people are strongly indoctrinated with some idea - for example the effect that the Nazis had on the people of Germany.

Well, I like to eat, sleep, drink, and be in love. I like to work, read, learn, and understand life. I like a pipe for a Christmas present,
or records—Bessie, bop, or Bach.
25 I guess being colored doesn’t make me not like
the same things other folks like who are other races. So will my page be colored that I write?

But it will be
30 a part of you, instructor. You are white—
yet a part of me, as I am a part of you.

Read the following passage carefully before you choose your answer.
This passage is excerpted from a medical article titled, "Electronic cigarettes: Not all good news?"
(1) There is a long history of deceptive marketing tactics used by the tobacco industry regarding the 'safety' of cigarettes. (2) Thus, it is interesting to speculate whether the same will hold true for the nascent E-Cig industry.
(3) Certainly, users want to believe that E-Cig products are safe, but, unfortunately, no definitive data currently exist to prove or disprove this hypothesis. (4) Studying E-Cig exposure is very much like trying to hit a moving target, but one where researchers are not completely sure what the target looks like. (5) However, some facts have been established: (a) current E-Cig devices deliver nicotine at comparable levels to cigarettes, and certainly at levels high enough to evoke physiological responses in humans and rodents; (b) nicotine is highly addictive and, along with its metabolites, can cause cancer and affect neuronal development in adolescents irrespective of its source; (c) e-liquids have been shown to contain potentially toxic aldehydes and ROS, and; (d) some type of a biological response (e.g., change in cytokine levels) has been observed in the vast majority of murine in vivo and in vitro studies following E-Cig vapor/e-liquid exposure.
(6) Although it seems certain that E-Cig aerosols contain toxicants, it is fair to say that they likely contain less types of toxicants than cigarette smoke (i.e., E-Cig aerosols likely have hundreds of chemicals in them while tobacco smoke has thousands of chemicals). (7) The remaining question is then one of dose ranging.
(8) Given the paucity of information that is available regarding the effects, not only of E-Cigs, but also of many of the chemical constituents of e-liquids on the lungs, we propose that all commercially available E-Cig products be regulated in a similar fashion as any inhaled therapeutic agent, that is, thorough inhalation toxicology and safety-based clinical trials. (9) Although this would be an undeniably expensive undertaking, the estimated value of the E-Cig market is in the billion-dollar range, indicating that tobacco and E-Cig companies could likely foot this bill.
The writer is considering deleting the second part of sentence 3 (reproduced below), adjusting the punctuation as necessary.
Certainly, users want to believe that E-Cig products are safe, but, unfortunately, no definitive data currently exist to prove or disprove this hypothesis.
Should the writer keep or delete the underlined text (but, unfortunately, no definitive data currently exist to prove or disprove this hypothesis.)?
Keep it, because it clarifies the challenges encountered by the researchers in trying to determine the safety of the product.
Keep it, because it establishes the idea that E-Cig companies are to blame for the new health threat.
Keep it, because it provides important information on how data has been collected for the study.
Delete it, because it contradicts the claim made earlier in the paragraph which is developed throughout the article.
Delete it, because it interferes with the flow of the paragraph by introducing irrelevant information.
