If you want to write a persuasive essay then it is recommended to

provide a counterargument
develop multiple topics
present opinion as fact
establish a personal connection

The correct answer is: provide a counterargument

In a persuasive essay, the goal is to convince the reader to adopt a certain viewpoint or take a specific action. In order to effectively persuade others, it can be helpful to address potential opposing viewpoints and provide a counterargument. This shows that you have considered different perspectives and strengthens your own argument. Option B is incorrect because focusing on multiple topics can dilute the persuasive power of your essay. Option C is incorrect because presenting opinion as fact can be misleading and weaken the credibility of your argument. Option D is incorrect because only relying on a personal connection may not be enough to convince others of your point of view.
