Tips: Notice which group the speaker says they agree with, then recall what that group wants.

Why the other options are wrong:

• stricter age checks and limits on targeted ads.: Age checks and limits on targeted ads are what the advocates of stricter rules want. The speaker is cautious about sweeping restrictions.
• digital literacy lessons instead of new federal rules.: Digital literacy and family responsibility come from the opponents of regulation. The speaker says current protections are not enough.
• clearer content standards and open platform algorithms.: Content standards come from the advocates, and open algorithms are only an example from the middle group. Nobody puts these two together.

Correct Answer: banning features.

Why this is correct: The analyst says teaching digital literacy may be more effective than banning features outright.

Tips: When someone compares two things, note exactly what each side of the comparison is.

Why the other options are wrong:

• stronger age checks.: Stronger age checks are on the advocates' list of demands. The analyst compares digital literacy with banning features, not with age checks.
• parental controls.: Parental controls come from the neighbour's story. The analyst compares digital literacy with banning features.
• limits on targeted ads.: Limits on targeted ads are on the advocates' list. The analyst does not mention advertising.

Correct Answer: curated images can hurt younger teens' self-esteem.

Why this is correct: The Canadian Paediatric Society warned that constant exposure to curated images can harm self-esteem. It said this is true especially for younger teens.

Tips: Each source in this part backs up a different harm. Match each source to its own point.

Why the other options are wrong:

• late-night scrolling can stop teens from sleeping.: Lost sleep after late-night scrolling comes from the neighbour's story in Toronto. It is not the Paediatric Society's warning.
• addictive design features can hook teens.: Addictive design is one of the advocates' general concerns. The Paediatric Society's warning is about curated images.
• online bullying can follow teens into school.: Online bullying is listed as a general concern of the advocates. No source says it follows teens into school.

Correct Answer: Most teens surveyed did not say social media made them anxious.

Why this is correct: Only one in five teens said social media made them feel anxious or depressed. So most of the teens surveyed did not say this.

Tips: When you hear a figure, think about what it tells you about the rest of the group.

Why the other options are wrong:

• Most teens surveyed said social media made them anxious.: One in five is a minority, not most. So most teens did not say social media made them anxious.
• Most teens surveyed did not feel pressured to stay online.: Nearly 60% felt pressured to stay online longer than they wanted. That is most teens, not a minority.
• Fewer than one in five teens felt pressured to stay online.: One in five is the figure for anxiety. Nearly 60% felt pressured to stay online.

Correct Answer: cautious, though sure current protections fall short.

Why this is correct: The speaker says, I'm cautious about sweeping restrictions. In the same sentence, the speaker says current protections for youth are insufficient.

Tips: Listen to how the speaker describes their own feeling, and to what they say just after it.

Why the other options are wrong:

• eager, seeing them as long overdue.: The speaker is not eager. The speaker says, I'm cautious about sweeping restrictions.
• cautious, though sure current protections are enough.: The speaker is cautious, but does not think protections are enough. The speaker says they are insufficient.
• dismissive, calling them a false solution.: False solution is the opponents' phrase. The speaker is cautious, not dismissive, and still wants better protection.

Correct Answer: support research on how platforms work.

Why this is correct: The middle group says more transparent algorithms could support research without restricting access entirely.

Tips: When a group gives an example, listen for what they say the example would do.

Why the other options are wrong:

• help parents see what their teens are shown.: Parents are part of the middle group's plan, through parental involvement. But transparency is linked to research, not to helping parents.
• limit how long teens stay online.: Time spent online comes from the Statistics Canada survey. The middle group does not say transparency would limit it.
• keep tech companies in Canada.: Innovation leaving Canada is the opponents' worry about heavy rules. The middle group does not link transparency to it.
