◆Know more
There is so much fake news online. Additionally, there are all kinds of fraudulent websites that look similar to those of the government or non-profit organisations. We should pay attention.
Luckily, it is not difficult to spot a fraudulent website and fake news. Those who spread fake news often use shocking headlines to attract attention. They do not show the authors or published dates. Moreover, if you receive any suspicious emails, remember not to open the attachments or click on the hyperlinks. We should access Internet banking by typing in the bank's website address directly.
■English highway﹕Additionally
''Additionally'' means ''also''. We use it to give more information about something.
e.g. I sing in the school choir. Additionally, I have a piano lesson every Sunday.
You can read comics online. Additionally, you can create your own.
