To determine the most effective counterargument, we need to evaluate each statement and see which one directly addresses the opposing claim that "Some people get attacked by sharks." Here's an analysis of each statement:
(A) "Sharks mistake people on surfboards for turtles." - While this statement suggests that sharks may attack people due to mistaken identity, it doesn't necessarily counter the opposing claim effectively. It's more of an explanation for why shark attacks occur, rather than a counterargument.
(B) "Shark attacks are extremely rare." - This statement directly disputes the opposing claim by asserting that shark attacks are not common occurrences. It suggests that the risk of being attacked by a shark is negligible, thereby countering the opposing claim effectively.
(C) "People should not swim in shark-infested waters." - This statement provides advice to avoid swimming in areas where sharks are present, but it does not directly counter the opposing claim that swimming in the ocean can be dangerous due to shark attacks.
(D) "Sharks are attracted to splashing." - This statement provides an explanation for why sharks may be drawn to potential prey, but it does not serve as a strong counterargument against the opposing claim.
Based on these evaluations, option (B) - "Shark attacks are extremely rare." - is the most effective counterargument as it directly disputes the claim that "Some people get attacked by sharks" by asserting that such attacks are uncommon.
