what does the key word \journalist\ help explain about hilde?
it helps explain why hilde needs help from her father.
it helps explain why hilde was bored with her website.
it helps explain why hilde decided to start a newspaper.

Explanation:

A journalist writes news - related content. Hilde's father is a journalist. Hilde started a family newsletter and then a “real” newspaper. The fact that her father is a journalist (someone involved in news writing) helps explain why she decided to start a newspaper, as she may have been influenced by her father's profession. The first option is incorrect because the text doesn't imply she needs help because of his journalism (he helps with editing etc., not because she needs help due to his job's nature for that reason). The second option is incorrect as there's no connection between her father being a journalist and her being bored with the website.

Answer:

It helps explain why Hilde decided to start a newspaper.
