Answer: B

When you begin an essay, you want to find a way to convince the reader to continue reading past the introduction. This is why many essays begin with a hook, or the opening statement that grabs the reader's attention while introducing what topic the essay is about.

By starting your essay with " In this essay, I will.." you are unable to accomplish the goal of intriguing your reader, so it should be replaced with a sentence that will appeal to the readers emotions and curiosity
