Read the scenario of a formal discussion. Martin and Savannah are analyzing a poem. MARTIN: This poem is about hope. In the first line, the poet describes the rising sun as a "beacon of hope.” This imagery sets a positive mood to match the idea that the speaker is emerging from a time of struggle in his life.

SAVANNAH: I believe the poem has a darker theme. In line 6, the rising sun fades behind some thick, dark clouds. While I agree that the rising sun does symbolize hope, that hope quickly fades.

MARTIN: Yes, the sun does fade, but a glimpse of the sun was enough to spark new hope in the speaker. Line 7 explains how the speaker emerges from his house to venture out into the world again. He is doing this despite the sun fading behind the clouds.

Which statement best describes how Martin addresses Savannah’s point of disagreement?

He concedes to an alternate viewpoint.
He summarizes the point of disagreement.
He refutes her argument with sound evidence.
He highlights the common ground of their arguments.
