how should counterclaims be addressed in an argumentative essay? (2 points)
ignored completely
refuted using emotional language
rebutted with relevant evidence
mentioned without any evidence

Explanation:

In an argumentative essay, counterclaims should be addressed. Ignoring them (\(Ignored\ completely\)) is weak. Mentioning without evidence (\(Mentioned\ without\ any\ evidence\)) is insufficient. Refuting with emotional language (\(Refuted\ using\ emotional\ language\)) is not logical. Rebutted with relevant evidence (\(Rebutted\ with\ relevant\ evidence\)) is the proper approach as it strengthens the essay's argument by showing the writer has considered opposing views and can effectively counter them.

Answer:

Rebutted with relevant evidence
