How to store multiple values in state
to do this ,you will need to define state for all four select box like this
const [seleccedValue1,setSelectedValue1]=useState(null);
const [seleccedValue2,setSelectedValue2]=useState(null);
const [seleccedValue3,setSelectedValue3]=useState(null);
const [seleccedValue4,setSelectedValue4]=useState(null);
then you will need to handle on change event of each select box like this
<select onChange={(e)=>{setSelectedValue1(e.target.value)}}>
<option value="essay">Paraphrasing</option>
<option value="Custom Writing">Custom Writing</option>
<option selected value="Dissertation">Dissertation</option>
<option value="Research Paper">Research Paper</option>
<option value="essay">Essay</option>
<option value="Term Paper">Term Paper</option>
<option selected value="Admission Essay">Admission Essay</option>
<option value="Coursework">Coursework</option>
<option value="Book Review">Book Review</option>

Answer 3

Here is how you store value of any input field in useState();
const [selected,setSelected] = useState({});
function handleChange(event){
setSelected({...selected,[event.targe.id]=event.target.value});
}
return(
<select
id={"id_0"}
value={selected["id_0"]}
onChange={(event)=>(handleChange(event))}>
......."your code continue here"
and here is how you handle multiple input fields.
<select id={'id_1'} value={selected['id_1']}
onChange={(event)=>(handleChange(event))}/>
<select id={'id_2'} value={selected['id_2']}
onChange={(event)=>(handleChange(event))}/>
