Explanation:

The sentence in the correct answer is the best paraphrase. It uses different wording to state the ideas of the sentence from the Web article. To avoid plagiarism, paraphrases of information from a Web article should include the author's last name and the date the article was published in parentheses. Plagiarism is taking someone else's words or thoughts and using them as your own, whether on accident or on purpose. Even though a paraphrase uses wording different from the original author's, the ideas are the same. Therefore, credit should still be given to the author of the source.
