Which details support the central idea that information on the internet is not protected well enough? check all that apply. “only a small fraction … is securely encrypted” “the remainder is poorly encrypted” “the number of internet users” “people take adequate precautions in terms of privacy” “anybody … can get their hands on more information”

The correct answers are "Only a small fraction is securely encrypted; the remainder is poorly encrypted" and "Anybody can get their hands on more information".

It is true that not all of the internet traffic is protected. About 60% of this traffic is encrypted; the rest remains a work in progress. This puts uncovered information at the risk of getting collected by able computer security technicians.

With the increasing availability of tools to simulate firewall security breaches, free to download from the internet, anybody who takes the time to learn these practices is capable of compromising unencrypted information - or even encrypted, depending on their skill.

The other options are not to be considered supportive of the central idea since:

The quantity of internet users is irrelevant to the fact that whether the current amount of information is at risk or not. The precautions these users take when browsing the web however, are a more contributing fact to the idea.

Most people do not take adequate precautions when it comes to their privacy, evidence being that the amount of personal data submitted to social networks allows their administrators to take advantage of it, selling the information to advertisers and ensuring a multi-millionaire income.

The answers are (I just took the test)

A. “only a small fraction … is securely encrypted”

B. “the remainder is poorly encrypted”

E. “anybody … can get their hands on more information”

postive, comparative, superlative - good, better, best

recall how we defined nouns as words capable of having plurals and possessive endings. adjectives (and their first cousin, the adverb) also have a feature that distinguishes them. they come in three states. first, the raw adjective—in its positive state—merely describes the noun modified; it doesn’t care about how this particular person or thing stacks up against other members of the same noun class

(i can't select because there is no options but, i will answer) using evidence effectively. most of the assignments you will do in university will ask you to make an argument, to take a stance, or to prove a hypothesis. the best way to do this is to research the topic, develop a thesis statement, hypothesis, or claim and then use evidence to support this claim.
