Step-by-step explanation:

Sometimes it is asked of all kinds of students to present arguments from both sides, that is to say, taking into consideration all perspectives upon a given problem; and although it is no easy task, in cases like this, the student needs to aim at objectivity, not showing bias for any one possible stance.
