Read Deepak’s rebuttal to the counterclaim in his essay. Critics are correct in saying that the weather moves in cycles. However, that doesn’t mean that the current drought isn’t real. By the end of October 2012, sixty percent of the US was experiencing a drought. Granted, that was a four percent decrease from the drought totals in September. Which sentence in the rebuttal provides evidence that defends against the counterclaim? Critics are correct in saying that the weather moves in cycles.

Answer:

By the end of October 2012, sixty percent of the US was experiencing a drought.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sentence above presents a real and proven fact that, because of its veracity, cannot be contested and revoked.

This type of argument is very important for a debate and essay, because in addition to showing that the author has studied and prepared in relation to the topic, it prevents someone from not believing and concludes that the argument is unreal, since there are concrete ways to prove it and to show it as a truth, thus providing a strong, correct, concrete, irreducible and justified argument.
