1 pts
when creating an outline for an argumentative essay, what should you include?
only the introduction and conclusion
a list of sources used
main points, supporting evidence, and counterarguments
personal anecdotes only

Explanation:

For the first question, a peer - reviewed journal article is reliable as it undergoes expert evaluation. Personal blogs, Wikipedia (editable by many), and social media posts lack such rigorous validation.
For the second question, an argumentative essay outline needs main points (thesis), supporting evidence (to prove points), and counterarguments (to address opposing views). Just having introduction/conclusion is insufficient. A list of sources is for citations (not outline core). Personal anecdotes alone are too limited.

Answer:

1. A peer - reviewed journal article
2. Main points, supporting evidence, and counterarguments
