Question

of all the pets you can have, hedgehogs are the most exciting to watch. now consider how someone might argue against this. which sentence presents a counterclaim to the above claim? pet hedgehogs live much longer than other small pets. hedgehogs are nocturnal, so all they do during the day is sleep. hedgehogs may appear unfriendly, but they are quite fond of human interaction.

Explanation:

The first three sentences provide positive - natured facts about hedgehogs as pets. The last sentence is a subjective and opinion - based claim. To counterclaim the idea that hedgehogs are the most exciting pets among all, we need a statement that challenges this opinion. The statement "Hedgehogs may appear unfriendly, but they are quite fond of human interaction" presents a counter - view by pointing out a potentially off - putting characteristic (appearing unfriendly) which could be used to argue against hedgehogs being the most exciting pets.

Answer:

Hedgehogs may appear unfriendly, but they are quite fond of human interaction.
