What does test anxiety really look like on the GMAT? For many test takers, it does not look like a panic attack. Instead, it shows up as brain fog, rereading, negative comparisons, mental noise....

When people start debating on whether the effects of the Internet are good or bad, it is the content they wrestle over. What both enthusiasts and skeptics miss is the fact that as a window onto the world, and onto ourselves, the Internet shapes what we see and how we see it, and eventually, if we use it enough, changes who we are as individuals and as a society. It controls the scale and form of human association and delivers a new form of human being, whose qualities are suited to it. As Marshall McLuhan, author of ‘Understanding Media: The Extensions of Man’ wrote, the content of the medium is just the juicy bit of meat carried by the burglar to distract the watchdog of the mind.
Which of the following options best summarizes the main idea of the paragraph?
(a) The debate on the Internet’s content is pointless; content does not matter.
(b) The Internet is neither good nor bad; it is the way it is used that determines its value.
(c) The focus on the Internet’s content can blind us to its effects on our thought and action.
(d) The Internet distracts our mind by flooding us with content.

I don't see a reason why you've added so many tags to the question. Please specify the source of the question which particularly should be just 1. Also, the option E is missing so this certainly isn't a GMAT question, . Read the below article https://gmatclub.com/forum/rules-for-po ... 33935.html
