Answer: (A)

Information literacy means you can locate information, analyze its content, and evaluate its credibility and usefulness. You search for sources, choose relevant ones, verify accuracy, and use what you find to answer questions or solve problems. It also includes using information ethically, such as citing sources and avoiding plagiarism. The other options describe skills outside this focus—planning finances, understanding or creating visuals, or processing information through listening—so they don’t capture what information literacy involves.
