Read the counterclaim in an argumentative essay about the importance of teaching handwriting in elementary school. Some people claim that due to technological advancements, students should spend more time learning keyboard skills instead of handwriting techniques. Which rebuttal best addresses the counterclaim?

the correct answer is a "it describes nora and mrs. linde's relationship". opcions b and d are not related to the content of the passage in any way. option c could be appropiate but it does not fully capture the effect of the dialogue, while option a is quite appropiate, since the dialogue not only exemplifies the relationship between the characters, but it also captures the effect in the excerpt. we get to know that mrs linde bosses around and already knows nora.
