Physical benefits aside, bicycling to work can also improve your state of mind. Rather than pounding your horn at the car that has just cut

you off, you can politely ring your bell to tell the sluggish ten-speeder up ahead that you're passing on the left. Rather than listening to negative
news constantly spew from your car radio, you can absorb the peaceful murmur of wind rushing over your face and leaves rustling under your
wheels.
Tyler wants to add this sentence to his introduction:
While the image of a happy cyclist commuting to work may seem too good to be true, research studies confirm that active commuting has a
positive effect on mental health and well-being.
Will this sentence improve Tyler's essay?
1. No, because it introduces a scientific point into a personal narrative.
2. No, because it introduces a new topic about a different type of commuting.
3. Yes, because it introduces a notable exception that draws the reader's interest.
O4. Yes, because it introduces scientific evidence that will support the author's claim.
