1. Introduction The essay opens with an activity that Bryson asks readers to picture themselves doing. Why is this an effective introduction?
2. Abstraction “Private affairs” (para. 2) is an abstract term. How does Bryson make this term real and understandable? What is included in it, according to Bryson?
3. Conclusion Bryson’s humorous conclusion seems somewhat at odds with the serious tone of the rest of the essay. How effective do you find it?
