COUNTERCLAIMS Counterclaims are an opposing claim. Counterclaims as defined by Tiongson (2016) are made to rebut a previous claim. They provide a contrasting perspective to the main argument. The following questions will help you formulate a counterclaim; - What are the major points on which you and the author can disagree? - Which lines from the text best support the counterclaim you have formulated? - What are the weaknesses or shortcomings in their argument? Are there any hidden assumptions? What is their strongest argument? What did they say to defend their position? - What are the merits of their view? Example below: "One of the ways in which ordinary people can prevent gingivitis is by gargling twice daily with a dentist- approved mouthwash. However, in a recent survey of American dentists, some questioned the use of mouthwash as a tactic to prevent gingivitis" The first sentence is the central claim of the writer while the second sentence is the counterclaim of the writer. One easy way to spot a counterclaim is to look for signal words like "however," "but," "on the other hand," "yet," "in contrast," "otherwise," "notwithstanding," "nevertheless," "on the contrary," - or any words that signal a contrast.Animal Testing Animal testing has benefited human health. People do not contract polio anymore because of a vaccine tested on animals. Advances in antibiotics, insulin, and other drugs have been made possible through research done on animals. Animal testing should continue to benefit medical research. In order for scientists to create new drugs, they have to be able to test them. Scientists have found that many animals have similar physical processes to humans. Watching how a new drug affects an animal makes it possible to find out how new drugs might affect the human body. The cost of animal testing makes it an affordable option. Laboratory animals are in abundance. It is easy to breed rats and other animals and to keep them in labs. Animal testing saves human lives. It would be wrong to test new drugs on humans. How many people would die because doctors could not admin- ister medication before compiling all the informa- tion about a new drug? When surveyed, 99% of all active doctors in the United States stated that animal research has paved the way to many medi- cal advancements. An impressive 97% of doctors support the continuous use of animals for research. Animal testing should be continued for medical research. It provides a safe method for drug testing that is inexpensive and easy to maintain. Doc- tors endorse the usage of animals for testing. It is possible that the cure for AIDS could come about through animal testing. Source: googleTask A: answer the following 1.What is the claim of the text? 2. What is the counterclaim in the text? 3.
