An ideal translation achieves a balance between A. accuracy and readability.
When you are translating, your translation needs to be accurate and very close in meaning to the original text.

In the article "How the Media Twists the News," Sheila Gribben Liaugminas explains that "intelligent news consumers" are those who pay attention to the ways in which media presents the news. She argues that being this intelligent consumer means that you realize that not everything you hear is valid, well-researched or unbiased. Moreover, an "intelligent citizen" employs this well-researched information to act in society. I believe that through the use of these two terms, the author makes a strong and valid call to action.
