The correct answer is D. Some might argue that a trip to historical monuments is a more educational summer vacation.

Explanation:

In argumentative texts such as essays or debates, a claim is the main position of the author towards some situation or subject. On the other hand, a counterclaim is a statement that goes against the main claim and shows this claim is invalid or false by providing evidence against it or stating an opposite position. In this case, the claim of Eva is that the best summer vacation is a trip visiting national parks, this means a counterclaim should be opposite to the position of Eva or show this position is not valid by providing evidence. Considering this,, the best example of a counterclaim to Eva's argument is "Some might argue that a trip to historical monuments is a more educational summer vacation" because argument is opposite to the one of Eva's and shows Eva position is not the only one and therefore might not be valid, which is the main purpose of a counterclaim.
