Explanation:

Question 3

• Quoting students who use cell phones while walking can show the reality (that students do this), help identify with students (by using their own words), and potentially give counterarguments or show different viewpoints if the quotes include varied perspectives. So all the listed effects are possible.

• An article about cell phone use while walking/driving is likely aiming to persuade people to be more careful on the road (to avoid accidents). Promoting votes for new laws is less direct, soliciting donations is unrelated, and age restrictions on phones are not the typical focus of such an article.

Answer:

D. all of these
