The correct answer is B) the topic is not arguable.

This is a weak claim for an argumentative research paper because the topic is not arguable.

It is not arguable because it is completely true that most food items can be purchased at your local grocery store.

When writing an argumentative research paper you need to have a controversial topic and that is why you are going to do deep research to prove your point and demonstrate that what you say is valid.

But that is not the case with the affirmation of this question because the claim is true and obvious: most food items can be purchased at your local grocery store.

the correct answers are:

c. “never in the history of his people had a man married a woman who spoke a different tongue.”

d. “‘it has never been heard,’ was the verdict of an old man speaking a few weeks later.”

e. “this man had come with others to commiserate with okeke.”
