Read the paragraph.

With car crashes being the leading cause of death among teenagers, many are in favor of raising the legal driving age to eighteen. According to the National Highway Safety Administration, the rate of crashes, both fatal and nonfatal, for sixteen-year-old drivers is almost ten times the rate as that of drivers aged thirty to fifty-nine, as calculated per mile driven. No one disputes the idea that raising the legal driving age will create issues and difficulties for many; however, these issues pale in comparison with the issue of safety. "The bottom line is that when we look at the research, raising the driving age saves lives," states Adrian Lund, president of the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, a research group funded by the auto insurance industry. To date, New Jersey is the only state to raise the legal driving age to seventeen, and various studies have shown that the overall rate of teen fatalities linked to automobile accidents has been consistently lower compared to that of nearby states.

Read this excerpt of a speech that Javier is writing about the topic of a longer school day.

I don’t think we should have a longer school day. Children already spend 7 hours in school. _____ If parents and teachers want students to do better in school, they should make smaller classes and pay teachers more money instead of extending the school day.

Which best addresses the counterclaim that “students should have a longer school day” and belongs in the blank space in Javier’s speech?

The school day now lasts from early in the morning to late in the afternoon, which is long enough for children to have to sit in school.
With a longer school day, students would not get a chance for free play, which studies prove helps students develop the creative thinking skills they need.
I’ve heard that some countries have longer school days and not as much homework, which seems to suit those students well.
I have a really long school day because I go to after-school programs until my dad comes to pick me up after he finishes his workday.
