Current

Answer:

UP-TO-DATE

Hint:

Think of how you might describe something that reflects the latest information or trends, not the flow of electricity.

Explanation:

Current" here is a clever play on words. While it can mean the flow of electricity or water, it also describes something happening now—like news or trends. The answer "UP-TO-DATE" fits because it literally means in sync with the present, just like a current keeps moving forward. The hyphens in the answer signal it’s a phrase, not separate words.
