Why this earns the marks

marks are for the hyperlink on the right text, the correct URL, and the ScreenTip — three genuinely independent pieces of a Word hyperlink (display text, address, hover tooltip), each checkable on its own. Select the whole phrase, because linking only part of it would cost the first mark: the display text of the finished link is whatever was selected when you pressed Ctrl+K, so a partial selection makes the link partially cover the required phrase. Type the address exactly with no trailing spaces, since Word treats the Address box as a literal destination string — an accidental trailing space can make the link resolve to a slightly different (broken) URL even though it looks identical on screen.
