Read the following excerpt from an argumentative essay. Answer the question that follows.


Critics might say that smartphones in the classroom cause too many distractions. A 2009 article in Education Magazine made just such a claim. Although cell phones can certainly cause distractions, current research suggests that teachers and students are putting phones to better use. A 2013 Educator Insider poll reveals that 67% of high school instructors now encourage students to use phones in the classroom setting. Students without phones are actually at a disadvantage in the classroom. The poll lists Internet access, spell checks, and collaboration as three key uses of smartphones in an educational setting.


What is the counterclaim the author introduces to the argument?

Cell phones should be allowed in the classroom.
Cell phones in the classroom cause too many distractions.
Students without phones are actually at a disadvantage in the classroom.
67% of high school instructors now encourage students to use phones in the classroom.

ASASP PLZZ HELP What is the counterclaim of this paragraph? [1] It's all over the news: kids are spending a lot of time on homework. [2] With the current emphasis on high-stakes testing, educators are trying to do more with less, which can result in an overabundance of schoolwork outside of school. [3] That’s not necessarily a negative thing. [4] Some critics say there is no evidence to suggest that homework is helpful to student achievement. [5] On the contrary, homework is necessary and helpful, designed so students can practice the concepts taught in class, build good study habits, and reflect on their own learning.

PROMPT
There is an enormous amount of information on the internet, but not all of it is true. Unfortunately, social media users often can’t tell whether the content they see is fake or real.



Read these texts:

“How Trustworthy Is Social Media?”
“Digital Detectives”
“Fakeout”


Now, imagine your classmates don’t know about the negative consequences of false information, photos, and videos. Write an essay explaining why fake content is dangerous. You should use evidence from the texts, and you can also use real-world examples to support your central idea.

Read the excerpt from The Story of My Life by Helen Keller.

Have you ever been at sea in a dense fog, when it seemed as if a tangible white darkness shut you in, and the great ship, tense and anxious, groped her way toward the shore with plummet and sounding-line, and you waited with beating heart for something to happen? I was like that ship before my education began, only I was without compass or sounding-line, and had no way of knowing how near the harbour was.

Which statement best describes the purpose of the imagery in the excerpt?

It allows the reader to feel how lost Helen feels before she learns to communicate.

It paints a picture for the reader of how dangerous it is to be lost at sea.
