    Answer: outline

    An outline exposes missing support and weak order before full sentences make revision expensive.

  4. Digital-life scenario: A message impersonates a service and asks you to open a login link urgently. What risk does this describe?

    Phishing creates false urgency so a target acts before checking the sender, domain, or destination link.

Daily round

  1. Digital-life scenario: What suffix such as .jpg or .pdf indicates a file’s format?

    Answer: file extension

    A file extension suggests format, but renaming the extension does not actually convert the file’s contents.

    Answer: summary

    A summary reports only central ideas and should not distort the source by omitting essential qualifications.
