Many teens and young adults have personal music players, such as MP3s, that allow them to take their favorite music with them wh

erever they go. Such devices require earbuds, and users can often be seen with at least one earbud firmly in place, listening to music as they go about their daily business. Some critics of these music players, however, argue that users tend to be isolated in the world of their music. Users, these critics say, do not really pay attention to what is going on around them; and they behave rudely when they carry on conversations with others while wearing at least one earbud.
Assignment: Do personal music players such as MP3s isolate their users and hamper social interaction? Should such devices be set aside in some situations to promote social interaction and even safety? Plan and write a response in which you state your position and persuade readers to agree with you. Support your opinions with reasons and examples.

The assignment requires you to take a position and argue this position. It would be best if you do it by yourself, because I don't know what your position is.

But I can give you some tips. Supposed you agree with this statement. You could then start with an introduction of how listening to MP3s affect people: it gives a sign to the others that they should not talk to you (since you can't hear them), and makes you less attentive (usually when we walk around we also look around so that we're not bored, but listening to MP3 gives you something to do so you're not that bored. This also means that you are at a greater risk of having a car accident or walking into something.
These are all disadvantages of listening to MP3s and if one considers them important, one might decide not to listen to MP3s in public.

Answer:

The correct answer is B (to add personification to “his essay” ).

Explanation:

When the author says his essay won first place, he was over the moon, which means his essay was really good, so the author is adding personification to his "essay", BY SAYING it was over the moon. This is personification because his "essay" cannot literally jump over the moon. This is not possible, so by saying his essay was really good, comparing it to his essay was over the moon, the second sentence would be more personified than the first one.
