Question

Read the excerpt from The Code Book. The difference between ordinary and digital mail can be illustrated by imagining that Alice wants to send out invitations to her birthday party, and that Eve, who has not been invited, wants to know the time and place of the party. If Alice uses the traditional method of posting letters, then it is very difficult for Eve to intercept one of the invitations. . . . In comparison, Eve's task is made considerably easier if Alice sends her invitations by e-mail. How does the author support the claim that ordinary and digital mail are very different? by citing statistics about both kinds of mail by offering quotes from experts on the subject by relating a personal experience of both kinds of mail by sharing a hypothetical story as an example of the subject

Answer 1

Answer:

by sharing a hypothetical story as an example of the subject

Answer 2

The author supports the claim that ordinary and digital mail are very different by sharing a hypothetical story as an example of the subject. The simple invitation and the specific time and place where it is supposed to be held are simple details that can be intercepted with digital mail compared to an ordinary mail that's slow and takes a lot of time and energy to be delivered to the receiver.
