Read the following passage and the information about its source. Then determine whether the "Using the source" sentence uses the source appropriately. Select a."Could be considered plagiarism" if the sentence is not acceptable.
b."Uses the source appropriately" if the sentence uses and acknowledges the source appropriately.

Original source:
Radio was a new thrill for many Americans in the 1920s, but it had extraordinary value for the isolated farm families of the Midwest, for whom solitude loomed as a daily problem. Radio was a source of music and fun, information and weather reports, and it was an easy way to enjoy the pleasure of other people's company. In-person visiting was a special event that often meant putting on dress clothes and serving cakes and lemonade and gathering politely in the parlor; frequently the press of chores or bad weather made that impossible. But with a radio, women could continue their housework as they listened to a friendly voice; men working in the barn had access to weather reports and farm programs.

From:
Stern, Jane, and Michael Stern. Two for the Road: Our Love Affair with American Food. Houghton Mifflin Company, 2005.
The passage appears on page 103.

Using the source:
Jane Stern and Michael Stern note that because many midwestern farm families were isolated, radio provided a new thrill and extraordinary value (103).
