2. poems that rhyme are better than poems that do not rhyme.
3. now consider how someone might argue against this. which sentence presents a counterclaim to the above claim?

3)
poems that rhyme place an emphasis on key words and phrases.

poetry that doesnt rhyme allows for more freedom of expression.

beowulf is one of the oldest and longest poems in existence.

Explanation:

To find the counterclaim, we need a statement that opposes the idea that rhyming poems are better. The first option supports rhyming poems. The second option says non - rhyming poetry has more freedom of expression, which implies non - rhyming poems can be better in terms of expression, opposing the original claim. The third option is about the age and length of a poem, not about the quality comparison between rhyming and non - rhyming poems.

Answer:

Poetry that doesn't rhyme allows for more freedom of expression.
