BEN: What’s the best way to get a pooch to behave? Reward him (or her)! Rewarding good behavior works better than punishing bad behavior (at least with dogs). Think about it. No one likes to be yelled at, and that includes canines! Dogs are a lot happier if their owner isn’t yelling “STOP BARKING!” My dog Yoda barks a lot. So what I do is this: If he stops barking when I ask him to, I make a little tiny clicking sound with a clicker (like a castanet) and give him a treat and say, “Good doggie.” This encourages him to behave.

COMMENT:
The clicking method doesn’t work in big cities. Where I live that tiny clicker would get drowned out by sirens and music blaring from cars. Also, giving dogs a lot of treats will make them gain too much weight.

BEN:
Don’t underestimate the power of your dog’s hearing, especially when treats are involved. Dogs actually have amazing hearing and can detect sounds in the frequency range of approximately 67 to 45,000 Hz. You’re right that it isn’t healthy for dogs to eat too much, but small treats won’t make them overweight.

Which idea below is a rebuttal to the counterclaim?

Dogs should not be underestimated, so the clicker method might work.
Dogs have poor hearing, so the clicker method does not always work.
Dogs have amazing hearing, so the clicker method should work.
Dogs have amazing hearing and eating many treats won’t harm them.

Read the following excerpt from "dark tower" by claude mckay before you choose your answer. "we shall not always plant while others reap the golden increment of bursting fruit, nor always countenance, abject and mute, that lesser men should hold their brothers cheap; not everlastingly while others sleep shall we beguile their limbs with mellow flute, not always bend to some more subtle brute. we were not made eternally to weep. the night, whose sable breast relieves the stark, white stars, is no less lovely being dark; and there are buds that cannot bloom at all in light, but crumple, piteous, and fall. so in the dark we hid the heart that bleeds, and wait, and tend our agonizing needs." in context, the expression "the night, whose sable breast relieves the stark,/ white stars, is no less lovely being dark; " is best interpreted as a. the light of the stars overpowers the black of night b. the black of night overpowers the light of the stars c. black and white contribute equally to the beauty of the night sky d. black and white continuously compete for prominence in the night sky
