Answer and Explanation:

How do you feel about that statistic?

That statistic makes me feel deceived, misled. Such a high number means half of the information conveyed to us is not completely trustworthy. It is what PR companies want us to think, not real information which we can use to think for ourselves. It is quite a sad reality, and it shows we still have a long way to go before we can think of ourselves as truly free. Knowledge is the rock upon which we can build our freedom. Without it, we are easily controlled and kept chained by those in power.

Do you think most people realize this?

I do not think people realize this. If more people knew about this, there would likely be a public outcry for change and better ways to filter what truly is news and what is not. That is obviously a difficult endeavor. But, just as so many others throughout history, it is worth fighting for.

sveticcg [70]

To help her encode the knowledge, Rebe should make a mnemonic device.

Any learning strategy that promotes information retention or retrieval (remembering) in the human mind for greater comprehension is referred to as a mnemonic device, or memory device. Mnemonics use specific tools including retrieval cues, imagery, and elaborate encoding to encode information in a way that makes it easy to store and retrieve. Mnemonics let new information become connected to something more relatable or significant, which improves memory retention of the material.

To commit to memory the hues of the rainbow: Each of the initial letters in the phrase "VIBGYOR" corresponds to a different colour from the rainbow in ascending order (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet)
