Select the correct answer. Which of the following does the author use to support the belief that students should be able to use their phones on the bus? A. statistics of cell phone use on buses B. information about cell phone use on other buses C. quotes from experts on cell phone use D. the experience of a fellow student Dear Principal Havens, (1) Our school bus driver, Mrs. Larson, won't let us use cell phones on the bus, and it isn't fair. (2) Once school is out, we should have the right to talk on our phones if we want. (3) But there are more important reasons why cell phones should be allowed. (4) Lots of kids expect calls from their parents around that time. (5) My friend Alyssa says her dad calls her from work to ask her to pick up stuff at the store for dinner. (6) What if there's a real emergency, and people were trying to get a hold of us? (7) Our families might need us at a moment's notice. (8) We're not a bunch of hoodlums—we're people with responsibilities. (9) In fact, most kids at age 13 are more responsible than we're given credit for by adults. (10) Please talk to Mrs. Larson, and ask her to lift her ban on cell phone use on the bus. Sincerely, Adam Michaels, 8th grade student
