Adding multiple tags

Question

I paste rows of data in the .xml file in Android Studio:

    ...
<item>Monday</item>
        Tuesday
        Wednesday
        Thursday
...

How do i add "item" tag pair to every row at once similar to the first one?

From https://plus.google.com/u/0/111438597118026640272/posts/hJ4HbtjGjnb :

I prefer the column selection mode. Assuming you pasted each item on one line, I'd turn on the column selection mode, place cursor on first item and press shift+down till the cursor is at the last item. Then type <item> , press end and type </item>

If multiple items are one line, you can place multiple cursors, but I find that tedious.
