Question

in a counterargument, the writer should prove why the other position is

Explanation:

In a counterargument, the writer's goal is to show that the opposing position is incorrect. The term "wrong" aligns with this purpose as a counterargument aims to refute the other side's stance by proving its flaws or inaccuracies. "Smarter" and "Better" don't fit the core purpose of a counterargument (which is about refuting, not comparing intelligence or superiority), and "Right" is the opposite of what a counterargument does (since it's against the other position).

Answer:

C. Wrong (assuming the options are labeled with the text, so the correct option is the one with "Wrong")
