Read the prompt and claim below. Then write a body paragraph in response to the prompt and claim that contains a topic sentence, offers at least one piece of supporting evidence from the list provided, introduces and addresses the counterclaim provided, and ends with a concluding sentence.
Passage
Prompt:
Your school district is considering removing handwriting and cursive classes from its school curriculum. Would you be in favor of such a policy?

Claim:
Our district should not eliminate cursive classes from its curriculum.

Paragraph topic:
Cursive can connect students to the past.

Evidence:

According to Johnson Kipling, professor of linguistics at Upton State University, "writing in cursive teaches reading cursive, and many of the foundational documents of our country are written in cursive, as are other historical documents. Looking at a typed transcript of these documents disconnects students from truly understanding them as part of history. One of history's central lessons is that times change and things evolve."
A poll of our state's high school history and government teachers revealed that almost 90 percent of them use primary-source historical documents written in cursive on a regular basis.
Counterclaim:
Students can just look at typed versions of historical documents to get the same information.

Select the correct text in the passage.
Read this excerpt from the Japanese declaration of war. Which sentence or phrase conveys a tone of frustration?
Although there has been reestablished the National Government of China, with which Japan had effected neighborly intercourse and
cooperation, the regime which has survived in Chungking, relying upon American and British protection, still continues its fratricidal
opposition. Eager for the realization of their inordinate ambition to dominate the Orient, both America and Britain, giving support to the
Chungking regime, have aggravated the disturbances in East Asia. Moreover these two Powers, inducing other countries to follow suit,
increased military preparations on all sides of Our Empire to challenge Us. They have obstructed by every means Our peaceful commerce
and finally resorted to a direct severance of economic relations, menacing gravely the existence of Our Empire. Patiently have We waited
and long have We endured, in the hope that Our government might retrieve the situation in peace.

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.

Part A

Read this excerpt from "Improving Old MacDonald's Farm."

It’s not just animals, though. Chemicals in pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, and fertilizers can also cause water pollution. Pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides are used to kill pests such as crop-eating insects and to control the growth of weeds and fungi. Fertilizers are used to feed crops and make them grow faster and healthier. Unfortunately, chemicals used to kill bugs and weeds can also damage other things. These chemicals can enter and contaminate water in several ways—through use and overuse in or around the water, from runoff, or by the wind. And their effects can be deadly. The chemicals can kill fish and other wildlife, poison food sources, and destroy the habitat that small animals use to hide from predators.

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.
