"'Oh, East is East, and West is West, and never the twain shall meet.'" With this famous line, British writer Rudyard Kipling has captured the idea that the East and West are so radically different that their people can't possibly understand one another. Do you agree or disagree with Kipling's statement?

Answer and Explanation:

I disagree with Kipling's idea that people from the East and the West are so different that they can't possibly understand each other. It is true that cultural differences may create obstacles to understanding. However, empathizing is a part of our nature as humans. When we keep an open mind, we find it easy to see our similarities instead of focusing solely on our differences. Since we are all human beings, no matter if we are from the East or from the West, we are bound to have something in common (experiences, feelings, fears, problems). That something is enough to generate understanding through empathy.

making a claim is just a fancy way of saying that you're stating your main point.' claims are not just opinions. a claim tells what you think is true about a topic based on your knowledge .

about the country claims : -

a counterclaim is just the opposite of a claim. counterclaims are also provable and supportable by reasons and evidence. not just, 'because i said so.' when you're planning an argument, you need to know what the counterclaim might be so that you can make sure that you disprove it with your reasons and evidence your research." - (catherineroberts)
