Q3
A — A long-form infographic is one tall, single page. It should be 'page: one tall single page'.
Q4
C — The whole infographic tells one story from start to finish. The middle must use charts to support the same topic, not switch to a different one.
Q5
B — A section title should be a heading, not a paragraph. It should be <h2>1. The Problem</h2>.
