For the following claims choose one of the four terms (extend, qualify, complicate, or refine) and revise the original claim to extend, qualify, complicate, or refine.  For example:  I think Britney Spears is the greatest musician alive.I will choose to complicate this claim.  My new claim will say: I think Britney Spears is the greatest musician under 35 and still alive.
