  • 2. 

    Select the most secure password:

    • Fluffy

    • Password

    • C4tp#9x

    • ABC

    • Nelson

    Correct Answer
    A. C4tp#9x
    Explanation
    The password "C4tp#9x" is the most secure option among the given choices because it includes a combination of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters. This makes it harder for hackers to guess or crack the password. The other options, "fluffy", "password", "ABC", and "nelson" are relatively weaker and more easily guessable.

    Always use correct grammar and spelling in an email message.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Using correct grammar and spelling in an email message is important because it helps to convey professionalism and clarity. When we communicate through email, we want to ensure that our message is easily understood and reflects positively on ourselves and our organization. Proper grammar and spelling also help to avoid misunderstandings and confusion. By taking the time to proofread and edit our emails, we can ensure that we are presenting ourselves in the best possible way and maintaining a high standard of communication.

    It is okay to send personal information (address, phone number, age, social security number, etc.) in an email if:

    • Your friend tells you it is okay.

    • You are doing an activity for a class project.

    • You are signing up to win a prize or purchasing something online.

    • You are trying to get a hot date.

    • It is NEVER okay to send personal information in an email.

    Correct Answer
    A. It is NEVER okay to send personal information in an email.
    Explanation
    It is never okay to send personal information in an email because email is not a secure method of communication. Personal information such as address, phone number, age, and social security number can be intercepted by hackers or malicious individuals who can then use this information for identity theft or other harmful purposes. It is always safer to use secure methods of communication, such as encrypted messaging apps or secure online forms, when sharing personal information.

    Where is the best place to store your password if you can't remember it?

    • Write it on a post-in note stuck to your computer.

    • In a secure location only you can find.

    • Tell it to all your friends so they can remind you if you forget.

    • Just use the word "password" as your password so you will remember it.

    Correct Answer
    A. In a secure location only you can find.
    Explanation
    The best place to store your password if you can't remember it is in a secure location only you can find. This ensures that your password remains confidential and reduces the risk of unauthorized access to your accounts. Storing it on a post-it note stuck to your computer or telling it to your friends compromises the security of your password. Using the word "password" as your password is not recommended as it is easily guessable and can be easily hacked.

    Which of the following actions will result in punishment and removal of school email privileges?

    • Logging into someone else's email account.

    • Sending a threatening or rude email.

    • Allowing another person to use your email account.

    • Using email to bully or spread rumors.

    • ALL of the above.

    Correct Answer
    A. ALL of the above.
    Explanation
    All of the actions mentioned in the options are violations of the school's email policy and can result in punishment and removal of email privileges. Logging into someone else's email account is a breach of privacy and unauthorized access. Sending a threatening or rude email is a form of harassment and goes against acceptable behavior. Allowing another person to use your email account can lead to misuse and potential harm. Using email to bully or spread rumors is a form of cyberbullying and can cause harm to others. Therefore, all of these actions can result in punishment and removal of school email privileges.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    You should always fill in the subject line of an email.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    It is important to fill in the subject line of an email because it provides a concise summary of the email's content. This helps the recipient to quickly understand the purpose or topic of the email without having to open it. A clear subject line also helps with organization and searchability, making it easier to locate and reference specific emails in the future. Additionally, a well-written subject line increases the likelihood of the email being opened and read by the recipient.
