annotation_instructions: |
  You will see a short text that could appear on a poster, advertisement, or
  social media graphic. Your task is to:
  1. Read the text carefully and understand its intended message.
  2. Select the words or phrases that should be visually emphasized (bolded,
     highlighted, or made larger) to most effectively communicate the message.
  3. Choose words that carry the most meaning and would draw the reader's
     attention to the key point.

  Typically, 1-4 words per sentence should be emphasized. Focus on the most
  impactful words rather than selecting entire phrases.
